Lucas Abraham, the man, accepts Haisley as collateral and makes her his sex partner. There is no love present, especially in Lucas, as his heart has long since died with his lover. But what happens when Haisley is kidnapped by his business partner? Does Lucas not care and let Haisley be killed by his enemy, or will Lucas help Haisley when he realizes he doesn't like anyone hurting Haisley except himself?
