Summary

She thought she was going to die there. She was forced to wear fake Suli silks and entertain evil businessmen, all to make Madame Heleen richer. She was tortured, beaten, and starved until he saved her. He paid off all her debt to the House and freed her from her inevitable death. But he’s not a hero in the story. He’s one of the deadliest men in all of Ketterdam. Why on Earth would he pay so much money to save her? What did he want with her? And when it came time to pay him back - what would she do?
