"Whatever love means"

Leah Baker, a mysterious journalist, meticulously engineers a life of manipulation and emotional exploitation. Preferring younger, vulnerable individuals, Leah ensnares Andrea, still reeling from a recent breakup. Leah, radiating intelligence and strategy, love-bombs Andrea, creating an illusion of passionate romance. However, Andrea stumbles upon Leah's dark past, encountering an ex-boyfriend, Liam, in the same pub they first met. Trauma-bonded, Andrea delves deeper into Leah's secrets but succumbs to guilt when confronted. Leah's demeanor abruptly shifts from love to silent treatment, trapping Andrea in a cycle of mind games. The relationship unravels as Leah's true nature emerges, culminating in abandonment. Leah perpetuates her abusive pattern with a new unsuspecting victim, ensnaring them in a gilded cage of narcissism. The tale explores the destructive nature of narcissistic relationships and the insidious cycle they perpetuate.
