Forced to my knees in a strange land, even the illusion of choice has been stripped from me. And the worst is still to come...

Collateral.

I'm nothing more than a pawn, used to force my government's hand. A slave, trained to obey and serve my enemies.

And even though this is not the life I would have chosen for myself, I cannot deny the way my body begins to ache for those rough touches, those bites of pain when I misbehave.

Even more so when those consequences are delivered by him. The man in charge of training me, teaching me everything I must learn to thrive in this new world. It is his touch I truly crave, and as I drink in his praise, the woman I once was fades to nothing more than a memory.

But fate is not content to leave me in peace. My homeland demands my obedience—and they are willing to do the unthinkable to ensure I obey.
