Chapter 1: The Angel of the Fringe

November 12, 2024 | 1:15 AM | The Fringe DistrictThe needle bit through skin, pulling torn flesh together like mending a ripped seam.Ava Thorne didn't look up from her work.The gang member on her makeshift operating table had stopped whimpering ten minutes ago, which meant the local anesthetic was finally doing its job."Keep it clean, Rico." Her voice cut through the humid air of the underground clinic. "Infection will kill you faster than whatever you were running from."The sharp scent of antiseptic burned her nostrils, battling the smell of rust and alley decay that seeped through every crack in the concrete walls.A single fluorescent bulb flickered overhead, casting stuttering shadows across her steady hands as she tied off the final suture.Rico grunted his understanding, sliding crumpled bills across the metal table. Street currency. No questions asked, no names recorded.Exactly how Ava preferred it.She was peeling off her latex gloves when the sound reached her. Deep eng

Chapter 2: The Collector's Item

November 12, 2024 | 2:45 AM | Armored SUV en route to The Olympus CasinoPain clawed through Damian's ribs with each breath.The bullet wounds throbbed with each heartbeat, torn muscle and bone screaming for relief he wouldn't allow himself.But his grey eyes remained fixed on the woman seated across from him, drawn by something stronger than agony.Even unconscious, Dr. Ava Thorne maintained perfect posture against the SUV's black leather. Her spine straight, shoulders squared, surgeon's hands folded with precise symmetry in her lap.Hands that had saved his life.Hands that now belonged to him.The vehicle's interior reeked of expensive leather and gun oil. Bulletproof glass muffled the distant hum of Vegas traffic, creating a cocoon of silence around them.Mikhail's voice crackled through the encrypted comm system."Pakhan, Marcus's men are searching every Strip casino. They found blood at the ambush site but no body."Damian's fingers found the radio clipped to his vest, his voice

Chapter 3: The Gilded Cage

November 13, 2024 | 4:00 AM | The Pantheon Penthouse, The Olympus CasinoSilk.Ava's eyes snapped open to foreign luxury against her skin. Her hands flew to her body, fingers finding designer pajamas she'd never owned.Her own clothes were gone.Someone had undressed her. Touched her unconscious body. Redressed her like a doll.Her stomach lurched.She bolted upright, bare feet hitting cold marble. The room spun in a blur of white and gold—pristine walls, crystal fixtures, everything screaming money and control.Her fingers checked her neck, her arms. No injuries except the acrid ghost of chloroform scorching her throat.Floor-to-ceiling windows revealed Vegas sprawled below, a glittering infection of light against desert darkness. The city looked small from here. Distant. Unreachable.The air tasted wrong. No antiseptic sting. No rust or alley decay. Just the cloying sweetness of lilies mixed with leather and something else.Power.She lunged for the door.Locked.Electronic. No visi

Chapter 4: The Education Begins

November 14, 2024 | 10:00 PM | The Seraphim ClubEighteen hours.Ava's wrists bore the evidence of her desperation. Red marks from testing every door handle. Raw patches where she'd clawed at window latches that wouldn't budge.Her stomach sat heavy with food she hadn't tasted. Gourmet meals delivered by silent staff who avoided eye contact.Her skin felt too clean from a shower that couldn't wash away the violation of waking in someone else's clothes.The electronic lock chirped.Damian entered like he owned the air itself. Charcoal suit tailored to lethal perfection. The jacket hung open, revealing a crisp white shirt that emphasized the broad expanse of his chest. Not a hair out of place in his midnight-dark styling, the overhead lights catching the sharp angles of his jaw.God help her, he was devastating. Every line of him designed to command attention and obedience.His grey eyes catalogued her in seconds. The bruises on her palms from pounding bulletproof glass. The shadows ben

November 14, 2024 | 11:00 PM | The Seraphim ClubMikhail appeared at their booth. No warning. Just there."Pakhan." Something ugly and excited flickered in his expression. "The new formula launch at Babylon House. It's performing beyond expectations."Damian's fingers stilled on Ava's wrist.The lazy indifference vanished. He sat forward, interested."Define 'beyond expectations.'""Triple potency. We lost three to the old formula earlier tonight, but the clients don't care. They want stronger." Mikhail's smile turned cruel. "The test subjects are... very enthusiastic. You wanted to see the results firsthand."Ava's stomach turned. Three dead, and they were launching something worse.Damian rose in one smooth motion, pulling her with him."Time for your next lesson, Doctor."His hand pressed low on her back. Possessive. Claiming."Let me show you what true addiction looks like."The crowd parted for them. Whispers followed in their wake. The women who'd spent years trying to catch his
