Deze trilogie vertelt ons het verhaal achter het ontstaan van dit mythische werk, via het zwoele leven van Constance en haar vele minnaars. In dit deel wordt het verhaal verteld van haar vurige en dronken liefdesaffaire met Khalil, een Turks-Egyptische diplomaat, een flamboyante figuur in de Parijse elite van de jaren 1860 en de opdrachtgever van het schilderij. Dit verhaal is geïnspireerd op het beroemde schilderij De oorsprong van de wereld van Gustave Courbet, waarop enkel een vrouwelijk geslachtsdeel wordt afgebeeld.

Om Khalil te vergeten, wiens huwelijksaanzoek Constance synoniem staat voor dienstbaarheid, en haar zou beroven van een vrijheid die haar erg dierbaar is, vindt Constance troost in de armen van nieuwe vluchtig voorbijkomende minnaars. Als fervente lezeres van de goddelijke Markies kent zij geen taboes, geen grenzen, behalve wederzijdse toestemming.
