When Lexi, a sharp-tongued tattoo artist, accidentally sends a risqué sketch to her mysterious client, Damon, she expects an awkward apology. Instead, he shows up at her shop with a proposition: bring her art to life in his private dungeon. What starts as a professional arrangement ignites into a game of control and surrender, where every stroke of her ink needle mirrors the marks he leaves on her skin. But when their kink-heavy fling threatens to spill into real feelings, Lexi must decide if she's ready to trade her solitary studio for a shared collar. Not just a wild ride, but a deep dive into the blurred lines between art and obsession, pleasure and possession.
