"Ekemezie, you may be one of the most respected men in this village but to me, you are a fool. Where is the love you promised me? Where is the person who once composed songs for me? You say you love me, ha! You do not know what love is! For your information, I am not spreading my legs for you this night. Go and find one of your other wives. Now get out of here so I can sleep."

"Ulinwa, sometimes you amuse me. So you do not want to give me Onyeka?! In case you have not realized, I own you! You are my property! I did not pay five cows, ten goats, four hundred tubers of yam and one thousand cowries on your head for nothing. Love? What do you even know about love? Why do you like to call someone that I saw pack and leave this house when she realized that her presence was unwanted . I did not come here for bickering because I am not a woman! What I need now is your complete submission. Now, spread your legs! Tonight is your turn to entertain me."

----------------------

'Bend Down Select' tells the story of Ekemezie and Ulinwa. Two hard-headed individuals who fall in love. The former, a man who is prohibited from showing affection to his loved ones due to the cultural definition of masculinity . The later, a woman with a bit of feminism in a community that sees women as quintessences of wealth and submission, who would rather live single for the rest of her life than be tied down by an egocentric cow - her words not mine. Still in forced denial of their love, a third party decides to come in.

Banished for five years, Lady Belinda Carrington returns to Willowfair, claiming to know things one would find impossible to believe. With her tainted reputation, can Belinda make Town Guard McKenzie Haverston help her in her pursuit of the truth? *** After her banishment five years ago, Belinda Carrington returns with secrets and tales too impossible to believe. But something in her lies makes McKenzie Haverston desperate for the truth... When Belinda shows up in McKenzie's home asking for protection in return for important information on a case he's working on, he rejects her. But when he learns where she had been banished after her great scandal five years ago, he finds himself striking a deal with the woman-he protects her, she gives him answers. The question now is: how true is her tale? She was once considered the fairest of them all, but one scandal later, she has become the most reviled. And she is also being hunted. If Belinda wants to stay alive, she has to start trusting McKenzie Haverston, a task she finds to be surprisingly easy to do. However, as the truth of the past begins to resurface, and the secrets of her scandal is revealed, Belinda is confronted by her own demons, causing her to doubt her own reality.
