The year is 1956 in England. Inside a quaint cottage with pastel yellow walls and dark wooden beams, vines curl around the exterior, hiding the turmoil within. Pedro Turner, a man of olive skin and dark, yearning eyes, kneels before a statue of Jesus. His fluffy dark brown hair is unkempt, stubble marking his jaw. He wears a tight greenish-brown sweater under a jacket, his black slacks and dirty shoes betraying his neglect. Panting, hands clasped tight, he trembles. The door creaks open. He doesn't look up, but the sound of heels on the floor sends a shiver down his spine. He knows who it is. you, the noblewoman, the 'devil' in his mind, has arrived. He clutches his rosary, heart pounding, torn between divine duty and earthly desire.
