When a young writer receives an unexpected invitation to spend time on a private island, what should have been a peaceful retreat quickly turns into something far more sinister. The grand mansion standing at the heart of the island is a relic of a forgotten past, whispering secrets through its dimly lit corridors and casting shadows that seem to watch her every move.

The host, a man with an unreadable gaze and an irresistible presence, proposes a game. The rules are simple: surrender or resist. But as the days stretch on and the nights grow dangerously intoxicating, she realizes that this game is more than just a seductive challenge—it’s a web of manipulation, psychological trials, and promises that could break her.

Between candlelit dinners where every word carries a double meaning, hidden passageways echoing with forgotten confessions, and an attraction so consuming it blurs the line between pleasure and peril, she finds herself trapped in a world where every choice is a test. The deeper she falls, the harder it becomes to separate desire from deception, temptation from a carefully laid trap.

In the end, it’s not just about winning or losing. It’s about who makes it out alive—and who will never be the same again.
