The Awakening 2

"Up until now, my life made sense. Up until now, I had been sheltered away from a world where murder was acceptable and debts were payment. Now, I was exposed to that world, and the lies, secrets and favours were my new currency. The rules were easy to follow and even easier to manipulate. But the last thing I expected was to be thrown in the deep end, fighting for everything I loved." Emiliana was moving on from what she lost, her safety, security, and the love. But what happens when her bodyguard comes back and shows her that the life her family had protected her from, is the life she fits into?

Élodie se réveille en sursaut, le corps encore vibrants des échos d’un rêve érotique aussi intense qu’interdit : elle a rêvé de Louis, son beau-frère, le mari de sa sœur Clara, enceinte de cinq mois. Ce rêve charnel et possessif agit comme un révélateur, faisant basculer sa réalité. Elle réalise que l’attraction qu’elle ressent pour lui, longtemps refoulée, est devenue une obsession dévorante. La vie quotidienne devient un supplice. Chaque geste de Louis, chaque regard échangé lors d’un dîner familial, attise le feu en elle. La tension est palpable, muette mais écrasante. Louis, lui aussi, semble en lutte. Sur un balcon, à la fin d’une soirée, le silence entre eux se charge d’un aveu non dit : il la désire tout autant, et cette connaissance est à la fois terrifiante et enivrante. Cette attraction interdite explose dans une chambre d’hôtel anonyme. Leur rencontre est un acte de possession brutale, charnelle et désespérée, loin des douceurs du rêve initial. C’est un accouplement marqué par la culpabilité mais aussi par une intensité qui les marque à jamais, corps et âme.
