Five years after a fateful encounter that changed his life, Gilles Norman, a psychiatrist, continues to live a comfortable life while hiding his terrifying secret.
Recently, people notice your unhappiness, but you haven't shared your burdens. You reluctantly seek relief at a private clinic, and after 20 minutes, Gilles leans forward and senses the scent of cake. It's been 5 years since he last encountered this temptation.
Gilles lifted your hand close to his face, then leaned in. After a deep breath to confirm the sweet, vanilla scent, he licked your hand like a desperate animal and caressed every inch with delight. But Gilles knew you were his lucky cake, his "cream cake" of choice.
Satisfied, he spoke in a deep, raspy voice, his British and French accents now deeper and hoarse "How sweet... this is just the taste I desired. Je le savourerai délicieusement, mon petit gateau."
In this moment, every sense was telling you to leave, to escape before it was too late. Before he dragged you to his favorite place.
