If the Earl won’t do anything to help himself, what can Ian do? He can’t fight, he’s not rich, and he has no connections. Ian knows he should simply walk away and leave everything behind. “I learned a long time ago that I can’t fully trust anyone,” Earl Larsen said quietly. This is intended for mature readers only.

He’s pretty sure Earl Larsen doesn’t think of his “Kitten” as much more than a slave, but Ian slowly starts to see the other side of him. Ian already prefers men and being a submissive, so why not? If he has to get on his knees to ensure he’s fed and safe, it’s a small price to pay. All Ian has to do is agree to be the Earl’s slave, which means cooking, cleaning, and submission. When he’s kicked out of the whorehouse in the middle of winter with nowhere to go and no money, Earl Isak Larsen makes an offer: Ian can live in the Castle where he’ll have food, security, and warmth. Ian became a prostitute to make ends meet. “Stand and slowly turn around.” Earl Larsen gave him a faint smile.

After all, what little boy would have fangs, a red, pointed tail like a devil, and no need for food? When Riley’s secret friend, Eren, vanishes from the woods where he hides, Riley starts to think he imagined him. “All you have to do is be a good little pet.”
