Ines is the Duchess, married to Edward, a man kinder than anyone. Yet she holds an unspeakable secret: being humiliated excites her far more than receiving gentle affection. When the butler, Leon, discovers her desire, he takes full advantage. While the Duke sleeps soundly, he indulges in everything he wants with her… A forbidden affair, desire turned dangerous, and an erotic game of submission from which the Duchess can no longer escape.
