### Summary
The story opens on the exiled lady Stella, now a captive in a remote castle under the control of the nobleman Michel. This inaugural chapter immediately establishes a dark and obsessive tone, introducing Michel as a quintessential "yandere" archetype: a man with a gentle face who harbors a frighteningly possessive and manipulative mind. The narrative is dominated by an intensely explicit and morally ambiguous sexual encounter, where Michel's long-held obsession with Stella, hinted to stem from their childhood, culminates in a dominant and controlling display of passion. The scene is noted for its detailed focus on female pleasure and extensive foreplay, which contrasts sharply with Michel's psychologically unsettling behavior. The central conflict is immediately complicated by the existence of Michel's fiancée, Anna, framing the affair as illicit and raising questions about whether his actions are driven by love or a twisted need for ownership. The chapter serves as a potent, spicy introduction to a relationship built on feverish desire and psychological control, trapping Stella in a gilded cage with her dangerously unhinged captor.
