They told her it was only a private lingerie shoot.
The lace fits like a key—and the door it opens is House Argent.
Celeste arrives for a once-in-a-lifetime modeling job and steps into a world of velvet rules, pearled leashes, and a Master whose voice can make her body obey. Chosen for her "responsiveness," she's collared, trained, and displayed, her worth measured by ritual, yield, and unyielding discipline. Every room has a protocol. Every touch is a test. When a sanctioned "sire" is offered—and the Master stakes his own claim—Celeste is pushed past curiosity into a perilous devotion that feels like destiny.
In this extreme dark harem romance, desire and power collide: public ceremonies, private conditioning, and the looming promise of breeding tighten around her like the laces at her spine. Is surrender the only path to belonging—or can Celeste carve a place for her own choosing inside a house that turns women into legends? The stakes are body, will, and future… and House Argent never loses.
