Claude Galen was brought into this world to train slaves, not to want them. When his latest victim, a twenty-one-year-old boy named Tristan Kade, begins to see Claude for who he truly is, only one thing can be done to stop Tristan from escaping: punish him. Trapped in a padded white room with no windows or doors, all Tristan can do to stay alive in this world is to obey Professor Galen. Submit to him. Yield. Break. But what happens when Tristan's body is trained to work against him? When he starts to crave the pleasure instead of fear it? When he begins to see the man behind the monster?
