�I should never have asked for a night with you. This would never have happened if I�d had more willpower.� A thief met a possession and did what he did best. Now, he has to live with the consequences. Including the girl he claimed. Pimlico was stolen and sold all before her twenty-first birthday. Two years with a master who almost killed her is over. She has a new master now. A master who demands everything, expects everything, and requires ultimate access to her mind. Elder broke countless rules when he took the girl who wasn�t his. She confuses and bewitches him, but his fascination won�t save her from his desires. He wants to know her. She wants to forget. Together�they�re doomed. "I should never have asked for a night with you. This would never have happened if I'd had more willpower."Once upon a time, I was a mute captive who wished for death.Now, I’m stowed away on a yacht.Saved and taken, the thief who stole me demands my voice, my past, my everything.I won’t give in.But Elder refuses to take no for an answer.He pushes and cajoles, slowly discovering who I am. Until I find out he plays the cello to escape his demons, all while his music conjures mine.He’s rich, I’m bankrupt.I’m mute by choice, he’s curious by nature.So many reasons why we can never work.But that doesn’t stop our connection, our passion.Until one night, he ruins everything.
