Dr Greta Vincent, a renowned medical oncologist, has spent two years seeing Dylan St John through one of Manchester’s most exclusive escort agencies.
Their meetings were meant to stay just sex and just a job, confined to hotel rooms, pseudonyms, and a precisely arranged sub-domme dynamic.
Dylan manages that work alongside university studies and care for a dependent mother, with neither of them knowing the other’s life beyond the arrangement.
Loneliness and grief have made obedience easier than being truly known, and the words between them hold that distance in place.
At The Pankhurst Cancer Institute, they come face to face outside the cover of hotel rooms and pseudonyms.
Secrecy, guilt, and a connection too real to dismiss now threaten Greta’s career, her formidable reputation, and the fragile balance of both their lives.
