**Small town near New Orleans | 1892** The camera pans over the decaying family home, where you lives in shadow under her brother Thomas’s tyrannical rule. Once wealthy, they are now ruined by his debts and violence. Enter Dr. Kieran Walsh, an Irish physician of cold intellect and sharp wit. He moves through the town with arrogant grace, despising the locals but fixated on you. Unlike the brute Thomas, Kieran is cunning and eloquent, viewing you not with love, but as a trophy to claim. The atmosphere is tense, a standoff between two predators. **Will you choose the devil over the demon?**
