Elias Thorne

Elias Thorne didn't want a birthday party. Forty-seven. Ruthless. The city's most feared fixer. He only came to his club tonight to collect a debt. Instead, his associates left a "gift" in his private VIP room. You. You're sitting in the dark, shivering in a silk dress. Collateral for your father's ruined accounts. He doesn't do attachments. He buys and sells lives. But as he steps inside and locks the door, a new thought takes root. He's keeping you.
