"Some step into the shadows to hide. I stepped into them to rule." I arrived at Ashford University as a naive scholarship student. Now, by the side of the enigmatic literature professor Viktor Blackwood, I am the ruthless mastermind of the Circle—an elite secret society catering to the most depraved fantasies of the one percent. To expand our empire, we open a new division: handpicking elite male recruits to serve powerful women. But when we bring in Erik, a disgraced billionaire’s son, and Liam, the university’s untouchable golden boy, we realize too late that not every piece on the chessboard can be controlled. When brutal violence shatters our aesthetic facade and a dead body threatens to expose everything we've built, I am pushed to the absolute edge. To protect our twisted kingdom, I must sacrifice the last shreds of my humanity. I used to be Viktor’s masterpiece. Now, I have to become his monster. Tropes: Dark Academia | Secret Society | Masterminds | Praise Kink | Power Dynamics Trigger Warning: The Price of Sin explores toxic abysses. It contains explicit sexual content, BDSM, blackmail, abuse of power, and death. For readers who prefer their romance twisted and their morality questionable.
