A queridinha de infância do meu marido, a doce e intocável Carla, sofreu queimaduras com água fervente. E, como castigo pelo que ele acreditava que eu tinha feito... Ele me trancou viva dentro de uma câmara de vapor, pequena demais pra eu sequer me mexer. Aumentou o fogo ao máximo. — A dor que a Carla sentiu, você vai sentir mil vezes pior! — Ele gritou, com os olhos cheios de ódio. Presa naquele espaço sufocante, o ar ficou pesado, quase impossível de respirar. O calor queimava por dentro, como se estivesse me cozinhando viva. Eu chorava, implorava por piedade: — Eu vou morrer! Por favor, me tira daqui! Mas ele... Ele apenas segurou Carla nos braços e saiu sem olhar pra trás. — Fica tranquila. Você não vai morrer... Mas só assim vai entender o que ela passou. Meus gritos de desespero ecoavam abafados dentro da câmara. A água borbulhava sob meus pés, lançando respingos ferventes contra minha pele. A dor era insuportável. Minha voz foi sumindo... Engolida pelo calor. Enquanto isso, ele curtia uma viagem internacional com Carla, sorrindo como se nada tivesse acontecido. Uma semana depois, ao voltar, lembrou de mim como quem se lembra de uma encomenda esquecida: — Aquela vagabunda já deve ter aprendido a lição. Podem soltá-la. O que ele não sabia... É que dentro daquela câmara abafada, onde a água já tinha secado e o vapor cessado, o que restava de mim... Já estava sendo devorado por vermes.

Sous la domination de l'ahpa Alba, dix-neuf ans, belle dans sa fragilité et pourtant hantée par des désirs qu’elle n’ose avouer, passe l’été dans une grande maison en lisière de forêt, chez sa meilleure amie. Mais derrière le calme apparent, une présence trouble ses nuits et fait vibrer son corps d’une fièvre inconnue : Adriel, le père de son amie, un homme au charisme brutal, imposant, dont le regard sombre la transperce et semble lire ses pensées les plus inavouables. Dès qu’il s’approche, Alba sent en elle une chaleur insidieuse, un frisson interdit qui la consume. Très vite, elle découvre qu’Adriel n’est pas un homme ordinaire mais un loup-garou alpha, maître redouté de sa meute, un être guidé par la force, la domination et le désir primal. Son aura animale l’enveloppe, et malgré la peur, malgré la culpabilité, Alba se laisse glisser dans ses griffes. La forêt devient leur sanctuaire brûlant, les nuits un piège moite où l’homme et la bête se confondent. Adriel la possède avec une intensité brute, parfois féroce, toujours marquée par ce besoin de l’imprimer en elle, tandis qu’Alba découvre qu’elle n’est pas si innocente qu’elle le croyait, que son propre corps réclame plus fort encore que sa raison ne résiste. Ce qui n’était qu’un trouble secret se transforme en passion dévorante, et Alba, marquée par l’empreinte du loup, glisse dans un monde où l’érotisme, le danger et la métamorphose se mêlent, jusqu’à menacer de tout consumer : son amitié, son innocence et peut-être même son âme.
