Prologue
Maddy
��There he is, over there,�� Cleo pointed across the quad. I followed her finger and saw Jett Decker talking to his group of friends. I had needed to talk to him the whole day. I had been trying to get a hold of him for about a week, but he hadn��t returned any of my calls or texts. I had wanted to find out what happened that caused
I marched in his direction only stopping when I was right behind him. His arms were waving around like he was doing a puppet show that went along with the story that he was telling his friends. When I tapped him on the shoulder, he stopped talking and looked over his shoulder.
��Jett,�� I said his name in a whisper because the look that was on his face wasn��t one that was normal for him. He usually smiled wide at me. We were best friends and he had always been happy to see me. ��I need to talk to you.��
��That��s too bad,�� he shrugged and turned around. What the hell? That wasn��t him ever. ��I��m busy.�� He didn��t say another word, and just turned around, picking up his conversation again. I tapped him on the shoulder again, but he didn��t turn around again. The other guys looked at me. Some looks were pity looks a few, from his closer friends, were looks of confusion. So, I wasn��t the only one that was confused with my best friends�� behavior. That was something then.
��Jett,�� I said his name with a plea. He still didn��t turn around. ��Fine,�� I huffed and stomped back to where Cleo was waiting for me.
��What is going on there?�� She asked looking at Jett��s back. I shrugged. ��Well, did he tell you why he got in trouble? Did he really get into a fight? It��s so not like him.��
��I know it��s not, Cleo. He wouldn��t talk to me though. Said he was busy. So, I have no idea what the hell happened,�� I looked back at Jett and watched him. He was still telling his story and he didn��t seem like he had a care in the world. ��I don��t know what is going on with him.�� I looked back at Cleo as she looped our arms together and she smiled at me.
��Fuck him then,�� she pulled me toward the school. ��You don��t need him. One day, he��s going to need you and he will be sorry he treated you like a jerk.�� I looked back over my shoulder, silently hoping that she was right. Jett had been my best friend for forever and I hated to lose that but, it felt like that was exactly what was happening.

For as long as Emily can remember, she has wanted to overcome her shyness and explore her sexuality. Still, everything changes when she receives an invitation to visit one of the town's most prestigious BDSM clubs, DESIRE'S DEN. On the day she chose to peruse the club, she noticed three men, all dressed in suits, standing on the upper level, near the railing. Despite her limited vision, she persisted in fixating on them. Their towering statues belied the toned bodies concealed by their sharply tailored suits-or so she could tell. The hair of two of them was short and dark, and the third had light brown-possibly blond-hair that reached the shoulders. The dark, crimson background incised their figures, exuding an air of mystery and strength. They stood in stark contrast to the unfiltered, primal energy that pulsed through the club. Shocked by the desires these men aroused in her, she was disappointed to learn that they were masters seeking a slave to divide and conquer. She couldn't afford the fee, and she also realized that they were outside her league. Emily hurriedly left the club, feeling disappointed and depressed, unaware that she had also caught the group's attention. A world of wicked pleasure, three handsome men. Over the years, they have lived a life of decadence, their lavish lair serving as a stage for their most sinister desires. But despite the unending parade of willing subjects, one woman sticks out. A mysterious stranger with white porcelain skin and a killer body, a slave, a name with no address, the first lady to attract their eye and they will go to any length to obtain her no matter the consequences.
Three years of marriage couldn't melt Theo's frozen heart. When an art gallery collapsed on Lena, he was off romancing another woman—lavishing her with a private jet. Three steel pins held Lena's shoulder together, but her heart remained broken. She filed for divorce and told everyone that he was impotent. Rising from the rubble, Lena blazed onto the design world's A‑list. She expected him to sail off with his true love—until Theo reappeared at her runway, pressing her against the wall. "Impotent, huh? Care to give it a try?"
After two years of marriage, Kristian dropped a bombshell. "She's back. Let's get divorced. Name your price." Freya didn't argue. She just smiled and made her demands. "I want your most expensive supercar." "Okay." "The villa on the outskirts." "Sure." "And half of the billions we made together." Kristian froze. "Come again?" He thought she was ordinary—but Freya was the genius behind their fortune. And now that she'd gone, he'd do anything to win her back.
Belinda thought after divorce, they would part ways for good - he could live his life on his own terms, while she could indulge in the rest of hers. However, fate had other plans in store. "My darling, I was wrong. Would you please come back to me?" The man, whom she once loved deeply, lowered his once proud head humbly. "I beg you to return to me." Belinda coldly pushed away the bouquet of flowers he had offered her and coolly replied, "It's too late. The bridge has been burned, and the ashes have long since scattered to the wind!"
