James Knight had been a writer long before coming to the city. He had a history, like anyone else, but did not care to go into it much. There had been a marriage; there had been a mysterious death; there had been months that stretched into years when He didn't have much of anything to live for...

Except His writing. He had started out as a journalist, working His way into investigative journalism, specializing in probing into the murky waters of mob capitalism. Not only were those waters murky; they were dangerous.

There had been an alias, or two. He had lost track of the places, one blending into the next, until enough time had passed that it was deemed by those in a position to make such judgments safe for Him to resurface.

During this period of invisibility, He turned to writing erotica under a pseudonym. He had developed something of a following among readers with an appetite for the taboo and the extreme... He had done some research, exploring these realms in His life and had uncovered what these "games" could lead to if they were taken too seriously.

He had also started to chat online, which is where He had first met Juliette Mercanti. She had had an affect on Him which He could neither understand nor deny. Although she never made any attempt to "change Him," as so many women had attempted to do before, without success, she had done something else. She had opened His heart, and in loving her, He had been transformed. There was no other way to put it. For the first time in His life, He felt completely alive.

They had met and spent time together, which was even better than He could have imagined. It was not long before He moved in with her. He had always been a loner, so keeping to Himself was as natural for Him as for a wolf. He had her. She was His. And He had His writing, which had begun to change as well, drawing Him out of the shadowy corners of erotica into the mainstream, where He had begun to have more success than ever before.

Juliette Mercanti was now His, and He was willingly hers, too, and He had never been happier in His life... and the happiest day in His life was the day... He made her His wife.
