Description
Samuel is a psychopath and a billionaire heir who believes life is a simulation without rules. He is obsessed with finding a lasting love, one he believes can only happen in an union of three. In this dark romance, he uses sinister means to gain the affection of Andreas and Nehemiah, but maintaining it proves increasingly difficult. As past misdeeds come to light, his morality will face the ultimate test. Is there a cost too great to keep them united? [[word count: 100,000 - 110,000]] Excerpts: ---====--- [Samuel William Rothschild, III] The problem with love is that it must be given freely, with one small asterisk. There is no rule against tricking someone into loving you, mostly because there are no rules. ---====--- [Andreas Santiago] Cam knocks on the door. "Are you okay?" I grimace. He's so needy. I've been in the bathroom all of sixty seconds. Aren't closet cases supposed to have post-orgasm remorse? "Yeah, I think I got something in my eye," I say, adding, "And no I don't need help, gimme a minute," before he decides he's an optometrist. ---====--- [Nehemiah Jones] "Mr. Jones, great job." Mrs. Miller's lips slowly curve into a smile, like they're fighting rust to move across her face. "Way to step it up for once. Let's keep at it." She lowers her voice to a whisper. "And keep your phone put away." I take my test and look at the score. She really didn't have to add that 'for once' bullshit, but I'm gonna let it go 'cause I got a B. I'm smiling, can't nothing bring my mood down. Life's too short to be arguing with ignorant ass teachers. Original Cover. Do not reproduce without permission.
