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.

"I own you!" He towers over me, trapping me against the wall. "I'm not yours to own," I reply.

The year I was at my poorest, I impersonated my sister to take care of her blind fiancé in exchange for one hundred thousand dollars. On the day he regained his sight, I left without a word. When we met again, it was during a business interview. I was a nameless intern reporter. He had returned to his rightful status as the heir of the influential Hughes family. During the interview, the host asked, "We’ve heard that during your illness, your fiancée, Miss Dawson, stayed by your side through thick and thin. The two of you are about to get married?" He lifted his hand slightly, revealing a ring, and his lips curled into a faint smile. "Yes, we’re getting engaged soon." Yet, his gaze, through the lens of his glasses, landed—intentionally or not—on me, standing in the corner.
