My loud, harsh breaths reverberated in the four walls of his cabin. I didn't realize when he locked me up here and pushed me too far from the door, blocking all my ways of escape. "M-Mr. S-Scott, please, what are you doing?" Cold shivers ran down my spine as I watched the man with horror-filled eyes who was advancing towards me with slow, dangerous steps. A sickening smile marred his lips as he silently relished my helplessness while uncuffing his sleeves. My fear skyrocketed. His husky chuckles ensued, churning my stomach as his shameless gaze lingered on my chest, making me quickly bring my arms to the front. "Something that I should have done before, Cupcake." He drawled out, leaving me shocked to the bone. That endearment. Travis? Dive into the dark and dangerous world of Travis Scott, a man who dupes people with his breathtaking charms and kind personality while confining his demons only to unleash them once he captures the angel he's been looking for years.

Alexandra mène une existence scindée en deux mondes que tout oppose. À l’université, elle a goûté à la lumière avec Marie, une passion solaire, tendre et libératrice qui lui a ouvert les portes d’une vie choisie. Mais le retour au pays sonne l’heure des comptes. Dans cette société conservatrice où les silences sont des lois, Alexandra retrouve Claudine, son amie d’enfance, son miroir sombre, celle avec qui elle a scellé un pacte charnel bien avant de connaître le sens du mot "trahison". Claudine n’est plus la jeune fille d’autrefois. Devenue une psychologue à l’intuition chirurgicale, elle lit dans les hésitations d’Alexandra comme dans un livre ouvert. Elle sent l'odeur d'une autre sur sa peau, elle devine les secrets cachés derrière ses sourires forcés. Pour Claudine, l’amour n’est pas un partage, c’est une conquête. Elle n’accepte pas la défaite. Prise au piège de sa propre culpabilité, Alexandra s'enfonce dans un double jeu dangereux. Elle tente d'apaiser la bête en se soumettant aux désirs de Claudine, acceptant de s'isoler avec elle dans un chalet loin du monde. Là, entre les murs de bois, Claudine déploie son arsenal : une domination psychologique impitoyable mêlée à une exploration érotique sophistiquée, utilisant des matériaux sexuels pour marquer le corps d'Alexandra et effacer, par le plaisir et la force, le souvenir de Marie. C’est un huis clos étouffant où chaque étreinte est un champ de bataille. Alexandra pourra-t-elle feindre la loyauté assez longtemps pour s'échapper ? Ou finira-t-elle par se perdre définitivement dans l’emprise exotique et toxique d’une femme qui connaît ses zones d’ombre mieux qu’elle-même ? Entre la douceur d'un avenir possible et l'addiction d'un passé qui refuse de mourir, le choix d'Alexandra pourrait bien la briser.
