This story was previously known as "The Awakening". ~*~ "One... two... three... one... two... three... a million... is that number right?" A figure less voice echoed. "Hello? Who's there?" Caliope asked, focusing on that voice. "One... two... who? A million... a billion... no, it's more... a legion..." Silence. She had seen too many horror movies and heard too many stories about that single word to overpass its meaning. The voice went quiet, yet she was still unable to see where it came from. She rubbed her eyes and all she could see around her was a thick path in a jungle-like scene. She didn't remember how she got there, but she knew it was for something important. Her eyes focused on the far end of the path and all she could see were more trees. She turned to the opposite side and found just the same. "One... two... billions... but always back at one..." the voice resumed it's counting. "Where are you? Who are you?" ~*~ -Her name is Caliope, and when she was a young girl, she never believed in happy endings. For her, there was nothing more than what you see in front of you. All she needed was her best friend Vanessa. Her background is very simple; a foster child with foster parents that were everything but warm and caring. Regardless of that, she became a smart and responsible young woman, ready for whatever came her way. At least that is what she thought. Her new job interview changed her life. It changed everything she ever believed in, and what she thought it was real. Her new boss is an amazing woman who has a son, something different from what he is made out to be. As she discovers the hidden truth about her boss and her son, she has to prepare herself for a whole new world that will unfold to her. ~*~ Intro collaboration with my loyal reader @GabrielleCarden Original Picture from the cover made by Marcus J.

Some of you have gotten to know me as a hard core woman who dictates the life of others, but it has not always been like that. While growing up, I was taught to respect my elders. I was taught to stay on the sidelines, to bow my head to everybody and to avert my eyes. This fact surely has laid a strong foundation to the woman I am today. How do you think that has affected my relationships with men? My name is Mayako Kato and I am a not only a trained submissive, I train others. Let me tell you my story... Once there was a little blackhaired girl... (MATURE CONTENT!) Serious spoiler alert! This is book two of three in this serie. If you care to read both Broken and Stronger, I strongly suggest you start with the other one.

It was all professional at first. I mean isn't that how it always starts off? Annika Jackson is a 31 year old African American women with a fifteen year old daughter who she loves dearly. So much that she would get a job serving the people she despises the most. She's a strong women but love is a weakness to all who deny it. Christian Hamilton is a wealthy man. He bathes in cash. 33 years old, yet still lacks stability when it comes to connecting with people on an intimate level. Although completely opposite, when you meet the one you've always hated, that hatred can be easily converted into the scary thing called "love".

Mature readers. Very Erotic. Highly sexual. Meet Leven Blackwood, a character I created based on the luscious Thomas Doherty. The proposition of a lifetime becomes the love of a lifetime. Grown and sexy, please.
