In book one of the Collar King, the ex-Priceless pleasure submissive has broken his collar. The newly minted Master Mad Maxximillian intends to fulfil every contract, vow, and promise he made while trapped in the guise of the disturbed pleasure submissive called Maximillian. He understands he cannot call himself a Dominant until he concludes all his unfinished business. No one in the House should've been surprised by this strict adherence to his personal code. They knew the Priceless had always been a man of his word. However, despite all he has endured in his fight to regain his dignity, he has managed to get nowhere at all. His brief moment of freedom was interrupted by a most unexpected event. Though the young man had broken the bonds that kept him on his knees. He'd given up everything just to regain his dignity and his freedom. That included his sanity. Free of his cruel Masters at last, he finds himself trapped in a nightmare world where the devil is a woman, the righteous starve to death at a feast, and the fires of hell are stoked by the souls of the innocent. Mad Maxx has grown into a very disturbed and confused young man. He discovered that escaping from his metal was the easy part. Terrified and unsure, he learns that his new life of choice comes with responsibilities he was never trained to handle. The reality he broke with to survive has now become a deadly pit of quicksand. The more he struggles to get to solid ground the lower he sinks. If he doesn't get out of this trap soon, he will drown on dry land.
