E, anong pinunta mo rito? 'Di ba sabi mo hindi ka papayag na 'di ko panagutan ang virginity mo? Kung ayaw mo ng pera what the hell are you here for? Nag-iskandalo ka pa talaga."

You're not even an inch to the woman I love."

Au lycée, Eden est tout ce que les autres admirent sans effort. Brillant, souriant, charismatique, héritier d’une famille puissante, il réussit aussi bien en cours que dans les concours académiques qu’il enchaîne avec une facilité agaçante. À l’opposé, Maëlys est discrète, acerbe, brillante elle aussi, mais profondément méfiante envers les garçons comme lui. Pour elle, Eden représente tout ce qu’elle déteste : l’arrogance déguisée en gentillesse et les privilèges hérités. Contraints de collaborer lors de compétitions intellectuelles, leurs échanges sont d’abord tendus, ironiques, parfois cruels. Pourtant, derrière les apparences, une compréhension inattendue naît entre eux. Lentement. Maladroitement. Mais un événement traumatisant vient briser l’équilibre fragile qu’Eden avait construit. Une nuit, un choix, une faute ou une perte irréversible l’obligent à quitter le pays, laissant derrière lui son passé, ses promesses et une relation inachevée. Des années plus tard, Eden revient. Il n’est plus le garçon souriant du lycée. Il est devenu un PDG redouté, froid, méthodique, héritier assumé d’un empire familial. Le monde le respecte, certains le craignent. Lui, ne ressent presque plus rien. Lorsqu’il recroise Maëlys, désormais femme, il ne la reconnaît pas. Elle, en revanche, reconnaît immédiatement l’ombre du garçon qu’elle a connu. Entre non-dits, rancœurs enfouies et vérités étouffées, leurs chemins se croisent à nouveau, forçant Eden à affronter ce qu’il a fui : son passé, ses blessures, et la personne qu’il était avant de devenir une ombre de lui-même.

I’d just blown the last target and my final chance to complete the quest. The System notified me that following the death of my flesh, my consciousness would return to the modern world, back to the arms of my family. Just as I closed my eyes, the desperate cries of my name caught my attention.
