With her hair sprawled across the pillows, Isadora warped her legs around Vincent's waist, trapping him with her. The strength of what was building was staggering and it edged dangerously closer with every thrust. The high was torturous. If he stopped, she'd cry. Cry, and beg. And maybe kill… "Vincent!~" Isadora cried out in ecstasy.

Quand son amie d’autrefois meurt soudain, Camille rentre chez elle. Elle fait des photos, cherche un peu de calme. Un lieu suspendu entre la brume, et les souvenirs. Près d’un lac perdu, elle développe des clichés qui semblent lui parler. Les tirages montrent des formes vagues, des mouvements étranges. comme si la lumière cherchait à lui montrer ce que sa mémoire avait oublié. Dans cet air léger, Camille part à la fois en quête de chagrin et en quête de clarté. Chaque photo devient une porte entrouverte sur le passé, chaque reflet un fragment de vérité. Ses pas la ramènent vers des visages d’autrefois, Vers Léo - son amour de jeunesse, parti sans dire au revoir - puis vers Élise, dont l’ombre rôde près du lac comme dans son cœur. Entre la brume et le calme, les jours translucides touchent à la mémoire fragile et à la douceur de lâcher prise. Ce voyage a des airs de poème, un récit entre ombre et reflet, où l’on apprend que la clarté ne naît pas de l’absence du trouble — mais de son acceptation. Une histoire qui parle de souvenirs, tout en mêlant tendresse et paix intérieure. Une histoire de ces moments pas très clairs, mais qui malgré tout nous guident encore.

Welcome to Blackwood University, where the tuition costs a fortune, but the secrets cost your life. I thought a scholarship to the country’s most elite university was my ticket out of the shadows. I was wrong. I didn’t just walk into a school; I walked into a lion’s den. And sitting on the throne is Niccolò De Luca. Nico is beautiful, brilliant, and brutal. He is the heir to the most powerful crime syndicate on the East Coast, and he runs this campus like his personal kingdom. He breaks hearts, he breaks bones, and now, he’s decided to break me. Not because I’m the scholarship case. But because he knows who I really am. I am the daughter of the man who stole millions from the De Luca family and vanished.

And unfortunately for you, I’m the one collecting the interest."
