Closing the lid, I booked a flight to London.

Gabriel est un danger dissimulé sous une discipline rigoureuse. Silencieux. Maîtrisé. Dévoué jusqu'à la brutalité. L'université était censée être l'exil de Natasha. Au lieu de cela, elle devient sa prison, et Gabriel, la serrure. Contraints à vivre dans un espace confiné, chaque regard est une provocation, chaque contact une limite à ne pas franchir.
