Fear and Desire

I don't want to hurt them. But I will, if it means saving her.

It's my job to train them. To prepare this group of terrified women for the men who will eventually buy them and break them for their own perverse pleasures.

I tell myself it's for a purpose. That in the end, their suffering will be what saves them.

But then I see her. My Laura.

I know the pain I'll be forced to give her will destroy what little bit of soul I have left inside of me. There is no mission, no greater good that will ever redeem the horror I'll have to inflict on her.

And when she's stolen away from me by the very man I've sacrificed so much to take down, there's nothing I won't do, no one I won't hurt, no corner of the world I won't scour to find her.

Before she's lost to me. Forever.

The path to a Happily Ever After is a dark one, with explicit sexual themes. If you like books where she says stop and he agrees to stop, this *isn't* the book for you.

Previously published under the same title on another retailer in 2015. There have been substantial edits, though the storyline remains the same.
