Working for a man who sees people as pawns in his empire means surrendering more than just her time; it means entering a world where control is currency and vulnerability is weakness.

As professional lines blur into something darker and more consuming, Elena must decide: will she lose herself in Damien's world of dominance and desire, or will she discover that true power lies not in submission, but in choosing who gets to see you break?
