"Father, I..."
"Don't you dare say any word or I'll slap you right on the cheek" he threatened her. Isabella lowered her head with tears rushing down her cheek.

"Honey, don't stress yourself please. Just... Send her away. If you let her be, she'll continue to bring more disgrace to this family. Your health will get worse" she spoke softly.
"You're always right my love. She can never be like our Laurel. Very calm, beautiful and friendly. And her sister doesn't sleep around with men" he said and shot Isabella a hard glare.
"Isabella Gaylord, you will leave this house today. I don't ever want to see your legs inside this mansion again" he yelled.

"Father, you can't do this to me. I'm your daughter. Mom, please help me plead with him. Laurel, help me please. Beg dad for me" she cried, going from one person to another.

After a night of passion, he slept heavily. The cold sheets around him reminded him that the woman had long since left. It was his habit that all the women he had slept with were not allowed to spend the night here.
Until he heard the door being pushed open. He immediately sat up and saw his mother.
"Mom," he jerked to his feet. The sheet fell off him, revealing his naked body. Hurriedly, he grabbed the sheet from the floor and covered himself.
"Mom, why the hell are you here?" He asked.
"The question should be what are you still doing here? There's a whole bunch of reporters downstairs trying to interview you about who you slept with last night." His mother, Mrs. Thornton, asked.

"You have to get married. It's the only way you're going to stop sleeping around. Every girl in this town knows the size of your D! CK, aren't you ashamed of yourself?" She shouted.
"I have a meeting this afternoon. I better start going" He stood up from the bed. His mother grabbed his hand.
"You have to get married, Calvin. You have to marry her." she said.
"Who is she?" He asked, furrowing his brow.
"The woman you slept with last night. She's the daughter of Gaylord Enterprises," she said, her eyes widening.
"What?" He muttered in a small voice.
Mrs. Thornton was already making arrangements for her son's marriage.

"Come in, all of you, and tell my son about the subsequent wedding arrangements. "Mrs. Thornton's words brought Calvin out of his hangover ancient at once.
He saw a crowd of people pouring into his room.
"Mom, what's going on?" His living room was instantly filled with ladies he hadn't seen before.
"They're the people who helped me prepare for your wedding. That's the chef, the event planner, ......"
"Mom, please. Do you need to push me this hard? I'm still fucking naked. Now, everybody out!" He shouted. They all exchanged glances with Mrs. Thornton and didn't move a muscle.
"I said, get the fuck out!" He yelled, throwing everything off the table. They screamed and immediately ran out. Mrs. Thornton just sighed and walked toward his angry son.
"You have to get married, for the last time."
"I have a girlfriend, Mom."
"The whore? I can't have her as a daughter-in-law of this family. You will either marry the lady of my choice or I will pass on your right to own Thornton Enterprises to your brother," she threatened.

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.
