Description

📖 Paperback Edition — He bought my debt. He owns my body. And the cage isn’t even the worst part.

Jax Thorne is six foot four of golden retriever charm—star swimmer, campus legend, everyone’s favorite guy. He’s also $50,000 in debt to people who break kneecaps for a living. When his quiet, calculating roommate offers to pay it off, Jax doesn’t ask enough questions. He signs a contract. He surrenders control. He tells himself it’s just business.

It is not just business.

Leo Corver runs a premium cam platform from their shared loft. He’s been watching Jax for months—cataloging every tell, every crack in the performance, every moment the golden retriever mask slips. Now Jax performs on camera under Leo’s direction: anonymous, caged, completely under his control. The rules are clinical. The sessions are professional. The $50,000 will be repaid in six months.

The problem is that Leo’s spreadsheets didn’t account for what happens when the subject starts wanting it. When the cage becomes a comfort. When the commands become a language. When the man behind the camera stops being the director and starts being the only person who has ever seen the real Jax Thorne.

And when a teammate discovers a screenshot that could expose everything, they face an impossible choice: hide and lose each other, or show their faces to the world and lose everything else.
