But when the rules flip and Ethan seizes control, a battle of power, pride, and revenge erupts. If every drop in her affection brings him closer to true freedom—and a hundred million dollars—will Ethan finally break the cycle, or is he just another pawn in someone else's game? What happens when the prize is his own life?
