桑迪刚从警校毕业，渴望证明自己。当她听说经济犯罪科有个行踪诡秘的嫌疑人——一个在BDSM圈子里被人津津乐道、总是逍遥法外的男人——她觉得这是个脱颖而出的机会。但还有别的东西在驱使着她。一种她从未公开承认过的黑暗好奇心。究竟是什么让这个人如此臭名昭著？为什么一想到要查明真相，她就心跳加速？

她安排了一次去他家做女佣的面试。她迟到了，差点在面试开始前就暴露身份——但凯出人意料地宽容了她。一位值得信赖的同事为她担保，所以他给了她一个机会。女佣制服送到了她手中。她立刻开始工作。

桑迪挨个房间跑，一手擦拭书架，一手翻找抽屉。同时把情报传回总部。她做事马虎，鲁莽行事。正是因为这种粗心大意，新来的同事才会失踪——或者更糟。

然后她找到了。她一直在寻找的文件。

但凯已经站在门口了。

他没有问任何问题。也不需要问。在她还没来得及编造谎言之前，绳子就已经落入了他的手中。桑迪挣扎着，抗议着，但绳结却越勒越紧。她一直恐惧——或许一直以来都渴望——的黑暗束缚，终于缠绕在了她的身上。她伪装成另一个人走进了他的世界。现在，她正处于凯想要的位置。无助。被捆绑。即将亲眼见证他如何赢得他的名声。

有些调查会比你预想的更加深入。桑迪刚刚就以惨痛的代价领悟到了这一点。Sandy just graduated from the police academy and she's hungry to prove herself. When she hears about an elusive suspect in the economic crimes division – a man whispered about in BDSM circles, always slipping through the cracks – she sees her chance to stand out. But there's something else driving her. A dark curiosity she's never admitted out loud. What exactly made this man so infamous? And why did the thought of finding out make her pulse race?

She arranges an interview for a maid position at his estate. Running late, nearly blowing her cover before it even begins – but Kai shows unexpected mercy. A trusted associate vouched for her, so he gives her a chance. The maid uniform is handed over. She starts immediately.

Sandy works room to room, dusting shelves with one hand while digging through drawers with the other. Transmitting intel back to headquarters. She's sloppy. Reckless.Because of such carelessness, newbies disappear - or worse.

Then she finds it. The documents she's been searching for.

But Kai is already standing in the doorway.

He doesn't ask questions. Doesn't need to. The ropes are in his hands before she can even form a lie. Sandy thrashes, protests, but the knots only tighten. The dark restraints she feared – or maybe craved all along – are finally wrapped around her body. She walked into his world pretending to be someone else. Now she's exactly where Kai wants her. Helpless. Bound. And about to learn exactly how he earned his reputation.

Some investigations go deeper than you ever planned. Sandy just found that out the hard way.
