I shouldn’t want a man like him: rich, dangerous … one of the elite. But I did. Maybe it was time to break free from my shell and give myself something I deserved … him. XAVIER I had money and power, and I used those to my advantage, to purchase women from the auction under the guise that they were for me. But they weren’t. I purchased them to set them free. I’d been doing it for years without romantic attachment to any of them … until Claire came into my life. And once I saw her, I knew she’d be the one I couldn’t let go. She’d be my downfall, but I was more than ready to fall to my knees and worship the ground she walked on.
