Embracing Fate
Ellie Masters
You find a man the monsters fear.
My job is straightforward. Buy a girl. Make her mine. Infiltrate a human-trafficking ring and take it down.
It doesn’t matter which unfortunate girl I choose. I’ll sacrifice one to save the many, or some such nonsense like that. Does that justify what I must do? Does that make me the hero?
No. It makes me a monstrous man, but I'll do what needs to be done.
I don’t want to know her name. I’m not her savior. I’m not her knight in shining armor galloping in on a white horse to save the day. I’m her nightmare, a man who will break her so others may live.
There's only one rule. Don't fall for the girl.
But when have I ever followed rules?
