Dans un monde où la plus part des croyances ne sont tournés que vers les progrès scientifiques et techniques, il est difficile de croire en l'existence d'un autre monde. - Tout ça, ce sont des foutaises. Moi, je ne crois qu'en ce que je vois. Mon smartphone par exemple... Un monde parallèle à celui que nous connaissons, mais qui existe bel et bien. Fils unique à mes parents, à mes 17 ans j'ai dû voir toute ma vie se bouleverser avec la rencontre d'une mystérieuse créature dont pour moi l'existence ne relevait que du conte de fée. - Mais, quelle sorte de créature es-tu ? Qu'est ce que tu me veux ? Mes origines, ainsi que des réalités dont j'ignorais l'existence m'ont été dévoilés. - Je l'ai su dès l'instant où j'ai posé mon regard sur toi. - Non, mais de quoi tu parles ? Il faut que je fasse un choix, mais tellement de choses sont en jeu, elle dit que c'est mon destin, mais comment savoir que c'est la vérité. - Je t'en prie. Entend l'APPEL DE L'OCÉAN. Je m'appelle Dilane et ceci, est mon histoire.

She needed one night. He needed one woman. Drowning in debts and desperate to survive, Ana Thompson agrees to a one-time job as a stripper. It’s supposed to be just one night, a quick way to pay off her stepmother’s endless demands. But that night, she collides with Fred Nork, the cold-hearted billionaire CEO of Majesties, a luxury women’s brand that thrives on elegance. Haunted by her past and overwhelmed by shame, Ana disappears before morning, leaving behind only a bloodstained sheet and the memory of her first time. Fred wakes up alone, confused, and with an unfamiliar ache in his chest. He doesn’t know her name. Weeks later, Ana’s world spirals further out of control. Homeless, pregnant, and rejected, she clutches the only lifeline she has, Fred’s business card, slipped into her bag the night they met. But when she walks into Majesties, hoping for help, she finds him… announcing his engagement to Tiana Monroe, a viciously poised heiress with a heart of ice. Shattered but not broken, Ana does the unthinkable. She applies for a cleaning job at Majesties. She begins working at the bottom rung of Fred’s empire. But Fred notices her. He doesn’t recognize the woman who once lit his world on fire, but something about Ana pulls him in again. Now, with the world watching, Fred must make an impossible choice: cling to the legacy he’s built with Tiana by his side, or risk it all for the mysterious woman who slipped away. Ana has a choice too: can she trust the man who once seemed so cold with her heart… and her child’s life? In a world where love is a weakness and power means everything, can a single night rewrite destiny?
