Description |
: |
Lydia awakes, bound and blind, to the whispered urgings of a man who has
his hands on her. His words confuse her at first, but she soon
understands they are both in the middle of a performance that will
determine whether she remains in captivity or dies. The crowd must be
entertained, and her cellmate makes sure it is.
Forced submission
is not the only horror Lydia endures. She has no memories of life
before her imprisonment, and Joe, her cellmate, is her only comfort as
the powerful creatures that hold them captive torture and debase her.
Together, she and Joe cling to the will to survive long enough to break
free and seek revenge. Their desire to sustain one another triumphs over
their wardens' efforts to destroy them. There is no pain, no suffering,
that can tear them apart.
Beyond their cell, their love is
tested. Can they hold strong in the face of the challenge of the new
powers they have gained along with their freedom?
