Ruthless Bargain

RUTHLESS BARGAIN

​Six days. One contract. And one rule that must never be broken: No kissing.

​Hunter Ansel, the billionaire CEO of North-Tech, is used to the world playing by his rules. But now his empire is crumbling, and the prison gates are looming dangerously close. With only six days left until the verdict, Hunter doesn't need redemption—he needs oblivion. He needs total control to silence the demons screaming in his head.

​That is when he orders Kitty.

​The Shadows Club's most unique "toy" is petite, fragile, and obedient. The perfect canvas for Hunter's darkest desires. Their contract is simple: he can do whatever he wants with her. Her payment is neither money nor diamonds.

​For every session, she asks for a single apple.

​But Hunter doesn't account for who hides behind the pigtails and innocent gaze: Junia Monet. A woman with a mind sharper than any shark on Wall Street, and who didn't choose this bargain by accident.

​When the company's collapse seems inevitable, the dynamic flips. On the living room floor, amidst scattered documents and silk ropes, Hunter realizes the woman he has tied up is the only one who can save him. But what happens when the prey is smarter than the hunter?

​Will the businessman be able to relinquish control to win her heart? or will the "no kissing" rule be their sentence?

​The final volume of Anabelle de Sade's series takes you into the filthy world of Wall Street, where innocence is just a mask, and love is the riskiest investment of all.
