TRIGGER Warning: This story contains NON-CONSENT/ PHYSICAL ABUSE/ VERBAL ABUSE/ STOCKHOLM SYNDROME/SELF HARM. Kenise Shepard was perfect for him. He knew this upon first glance. Nevermind her wayward fashions and silly dreams of her future, that would be corrected in no time. He preferred to focus on the positive; the present. She would be perfect laying beneath him, caged in his arms, like a butterfly in his palm never to be set free. For her, this was a nightmare, a parallel universe when the handsome man she was dating turned into a demon, perfectly crafted to claw at her fragile mind. He couldn't force himself in her life, could he? There were laws against this sort of thing, right? Embry Johnston, a sex worker at a local Atlanta nightclub. There she stumbles into the world of the dangerous, Devon Kimber, a brutal pimp whose affection for the woman he fancies turns grave. What happens when Embry leads naive Kenise to this dangerous world and Devon likes what he sees? Will Kenise fall for Devon's charm and wit? Or will she see the monster beneath the mask?
