"I will only change my mind after you have managed to show me how far you're willing to go. Every good thing comes at a cost, what are willing to pay for yours?" he asked me with his arms folded across his broad chest. "I would have sacrificed everything I have but the only problem is that you're not a good thing. You're a walking nightmare and my goal will forever remain escaping from your clutches." I said with so much confidence laced through my voice but heaven and earth knew that I felt like a puddle inside.

Résumé : Nathan est un jeune homme comme tant d'autres, tiraillé entre ses désirs profonds et les blessures invisibles que la vie lui a infligées. En apparence, il avance, il vit, il sourit… mais au fond, il est rongé par une peur viscérale : celle d’aimer, de s’attacher, de s’abandonner. Les cicatrices laissées par des échecs amoureux répétés ont forgé en lui un mur de méfiance, une carapace faite de doutes, d’interrogations et de solitude. Un jour, tout bascule. Plongé sans comprendre dans un monde étrange, un univers illusoire où les lois de la réalité semblent s'effondrer, Nathan se retrouve face à ses propres démons. Dans ce théâtre onirique troublant, ses peurs prennent forme, ses cauchemars se matérialisent, et chaque détour devient une épreuve psychologique et émotionnelle. Ce n’est plus seulement une quête de sens : c’est une descente aux confins de lui-même. Mais au cœur de cet étrange voyage, il fait des rencontres. Énigmatiques, bouleversantes, violentes ou lumineuses, ces figures viennent bousculer tout ce qu’il croyait savoir sur lui, sur l’amour, sur le lien à l’autre. Chacune d’elles devient un miroir : tantôt déformant, tantôt révélateur. Elles réveillent en lui des souvenirs enfouis, questionnent ses certitudes, et font éclater ses défenses. Nathan devra alors faire face à la plus grande question de sa vie : pourquoi son cœur a-t-il oublié d’aimer ? Et surtout… peut-il encore apprendre à le faire ? Entre rêve et réalité, chute et rédemption, ce voyage initiatique est celui d’un cœur brisé qui tente de retrouver le chemin de la lumière.
