Ferdinand was stopped in his tracks the first time he saw Rissa in the hospital. She was a pediatric neurosurgeon with goals, success, and cool good looks. The moment he got closer to her, he noticed the signs; the light chafing on her wrists, the reddened skin on her neck where her collar was placed when she wasn't working, the look in her eyes that begged for domination. Though she didn't cast those eyes on him.

Ferdinand was determined, a man of extreme power in the BDSM community, who got what he desired, and what he desired most was Rissa's submission.

Rissa was going to make him work for it and once he got her he was going to make her his. She hid her lifestyle from everyone she knew, but he knew the truth of what she craved. He would win her over with his dark control and dominate her mind, body and heart before she even saw him coming.
