Chapter 1: A Serendipitous Encount
Evershade had always been a place of quiet beauty and timeless charm. Its cobblestone streets wound through a tapestry of quaint cottages, vibrant gardens, and ancient oaks. It was here, beneath the sheltering boughs of these venerable trees, that Elara found herself once more, returning to the village that had shaped her childhood. The soft morning light filtered through the leaves, casting dappled shadows on the ground as she walked the familiar path towards Windermere House.Her mind was awash with memories. The letter from her grandmother, Beatrice, had arrived unexpectedly, stirring a mixture of grief and curiosity. It had been years since she last set foot in Evershade, but the pull of family ties and unanswered questions was irresistible. She had packed her bags with a sense of purpose, determined to honor her grandmother's last wishes and uncover the secrets hidden within the walls of Windermere House.As she neared the house, a sense of nostalgia washed over her. The ivy-covered mansion stood as a silent sentinel, its weathered stones whispering stories of the past. Elara paused at the gate, her hand resting on the wrought iron, feeling the weight of the moment. She took a deep breath and pushed the gate open, the creak of metal a familiar, welcoming sound.The garden, once meticulously tended by Beatrice, was now overgrown but still beautiful in its wildness. Roses, lavender, and honeysuckle competed for space, their scents mingling in the air. Elara walked slowly, savoring the fragrance and the memories it evoked. She approached the front door, the brass knocker gleaming despite the years, and lifted it with a sense of reverence. The sound echoed through the still morning air, a summons to the house and the past it contained.The door swung open to reveal the housekeeper, Mrs. Harrington, a woman who had been a fixture at Windermere House for as long as Elara could remember. Her face, lined with age but warm with familiarity, broke into a smile."Miss Elara! It's been too long. Welcome home," Mrs. Harrington said, her voice rich with emotion.Elara smiled, her own eyes misting over. "Thank you, Mrs. You might like

Preview:
Miss Carter, you will be mine. I say firmly.
"Release my arm, Mr. Carrington, before I force you to." She says, seeming to smile at me. I give her a sly smile. Squeezing my wrist with her other hand, she twists it uncomfortably. I gave a painful hiss. "Don't underestimate me, Mr. Carrington."
"This is the only time I will allow you to walk away from me, Miss Carter." She glared at me as she turned.
"Mr. Carrington, I am no possession of yours." I was left standing there when she opened the classroom door and left.
MY MASTERS
Mercy Kay 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.

He walked to the princess with the slave collar he'd won for ten years rattling in his hand as he walked. He reached close to her and with a swift movement, he collared her neck.
Then, he tilted her chin up, staring into the bluest eyes and the most beautiful face ever created, he gave her a cold smile.
"You are my acquisition. My slave. My sex slave. My property. I will pay you in spades, everything you and your father ever did to me and my people." He stated curtly.
Pure hatred, coldness and victory was the only emotion on his face.
