His Devil’s Mercy, book 4, Max Shaw realizes that life doesn’t come with any guarantees and is
forced to make the most difficult decision in his life.
Things Maximilian Shaw says:
“Horny, baby?”
Joanne blushed.
Horny was putting it mildly. Max was a weakness, her body refused to give up. Her life, for one
reason or another always circled back to him.
Sometimes he saved her. Sometimes she saved him.
“Whatever makes you think I’m done with you, baby?”
Max was also insatiable—a ferocious lover and a devilish Dom. Fantasy material as he was, for a lot
of subs at the Club Devil’s Cove, his hungry eyes were squarely on Joanne, who wore kink like she
was born for it. She brought out something in him that no one else could. Max wanted to keep her safe
from the danger still looming on the horizon. But who would save her . . . from Max?
“Mercy? When it comes to you and me, there’s no mercy, luv. For neither of us.”
As the dance of passion ensues, Max and Joanne must find the trust and resilience to weather the
storm headed their way. The decisions that Max makes now, will decide the difference between life
and death. Will he find the strength to deliver them through the vicious spiral of lies and espionage?
Or will their hopes crash and burn?
And ultimately, who will save them . . . from themselves?
Editor’s Note: Best one. Yet. Excuse the typos in this book. #OneHandEdit #HornyMax
Wishing you all well and trust you will enjoy this story.
Best Regards

Prologue
Nadqan, Saudi Arabia . . . one year ago.
The cruel sun beat down—its malevolent eye unblinking, and the sky—its co-conspirator, offered not
even a wisp of cloud to soften the harsh rays.
“Finish up,” the guard growled behind them.
Joanne looked at the women, huddled together in an effort to maintain some modicum of
decency as they relieved themselves under the ever-watchful eyes of the ten guards. Worse than the
lack of privacy, was the fact that the women were filthy and smelled of sex. They looked defeated and
demoralized, with their shoulders hunched and eyes fearful of what lay ahead of the rolling dunes.
“Enough! Get back on the fucking truck,” the guard bellowed.
He grabbed the woman closest to him by her hair and shoved her in the direction of the
vehicles. She tripped with her panties still around her ankles, drawing derisive laughter from the men.
Their hungry eyes glimmered when the loose tunic drifted above her hips as she tumbled to the
ground, exposing her naked buttocks to their leering gazes.
“Forget that. There’s no time,” Tarik warned the two guards who yanked her to her feet and
started fondling her breasts.
“Why the fuck not? What’s the rush?” The other guard, named Butros, grunted.
Joanne had been careful to keep her face blank. If they knew she understood Arabic, it might put
them on guard even more than they already were. It had become evident that the Bedouin Sheikh of the
Qara Tribe had paid millions of dollars for the group of twenty women—to serve as sex slaves for
him and his friends.
She hadn’t participated in the conjecture by the other women on their fate. As a professor of
anthropology, she knew better than most, what that would be—especially in a country such as Saudi
Arabia. A cash-rich land, thanks to oil interests, the country was home to sleek, modern cities and
technological advances, yet religious law governed all aspects of Saudi Arabia’s culture, making this
nation a study in contradiction. Their rich culture was shaped by Islamic beliefs and its historical role
as an ancient trade center, but there was the other side of the coin. There was no freedom—political,
religious, or of speech. In fact, it was deemed as one of the most repressive regimes in recent history.
Women had little or no rights whatsoever.
What chance of survival did any of us have? We’ll be treated like dirt, used without dignity
and respect; Slaves for perverted sexual pleasures of the rich.
It is well documented that in Saudi Arabia, women are considered second class citizens and
treated like children, rather than adults. They’re required to dress in black from head to toe, and need
permission from a male guardian to work, to marry, even to simply leave their home.
Gmphf, I guess as sex slaves we’re not classed at all, which is why we’re dressed in these
fucking transparent smocks!
“The sheikh wants us to deliver his merchandise by tomorrow morning. We can’t delay any
further.” Sneering, the guard yanked her out of her reverie. She had to scramble to avoid the sting of
his crop as he continued to herd the women toward the truck.
Joanne was aware that the Saudi Arabian Peninsula was the home of Bedouins—nomadic tribes
of the desert—but was surprised that there were some still residing in the desert. Many had given up
life in the sand dunes and opted for a more modern lifestyle in the cities. Joanne had been trying her
best to keep the women from falling into complete despair and keep their spirits up. It hadn’t been
easy, considering she was the only one in the group to have miraculously escaped getting raped by the
guards, who had been gorging themselves every night on the defenseless women.
She settled in, shifting around irritably. They’d been driving for days. They were bruised from
the bumpy ride and covered in a layer of sand and sweat. Her listless eyes found a lizard that had
taken shelter in the shadows of a rock, where the sand wasn’t hot enough to roast him. She sighed,
wishing that the guards had enough humanity to cover the back of the truck with a canvas at least, to
offer them some protection from the sun.
I guess we can count our lucky stars they prefer a modern mode of transport. It would’ve
been twice as bad on the back of camels.
The thought did little to soothe her when the truck pulled away with a jerk to continue the
monotonous journey, surrounded by the rolling sand dunes.
Soon, the scorching sun beat down on them mercilessly. Joanne felt the sweat rolling off her
nose and she lapped at the salty moistness. Her eyes stung from the blaring streaks of the sun.
“Fucking hate this heat,” she mumbled as she pulled at the smock which felt overwhelmingly
hot. The dry desert breeze offered little consolation as it blew sand into her eyes. Her hair was
sweaty and felt brittle.
“Bastards didn’t even give us water,” Morgan, one of the women who refused to be broken by
the guards, complained.
Joanne didn’t respond. She had learned to preserve every drop of moisture she had; talking
diminished the spittle in your mouth. Her tongue felt like it was coated in fur. She ran her tongue over
her lips and shuddered at how chapped and dry they felt.
“What I wouldn’t do for a glass of crystal clear, cold water,” Morgan moaned, which a number
of the women echoed; others, just stared blankly ahead.
* * * * * * * *
Two weeks later . . .
“How much longer, Dabir?” Kasim Ansar, Vizier to Sheikh Lufti bin Qara, barked. “The sheikh is
losing his patience with your inability to tame his slave.”
Dabir glared at Joanne where she hung weakly in the chains hooked to the rafters of the
underground cell. She’d been strung up with her feet off the ground. Her arms felt like they were
about to be torn off their sockets. Her hands were cramping, trying to alleviate the strain on her wrists
as her body weight kept pulling her down. She’d been bound since their arrival at the surprisingly
neat and modern compound at Nadqan.
“She’s weakening. It won’t take much more to break her spirit. Tell my brother he can have his
aphrodisiac cocktail in the meant time. This bitch will spread her legs willingly for his sword before
the end of the day.”
“She better. He paid the most for this one and he’s tired of waiting. He said it doesn’t matter if
she is half-dead when you bring her, just to make sure she accepted that he is now her master.”
Joanne noticed the cruel excitement that lit up her tormentor’s black eyes at the leniency the
sheikh had just granted him. She’d suspected her defiance had been the reason she’d been ‘softened’
in this way and not drugged into submission like some of the other women had been. From what she’d
overheard, the demented sheikh wanted her as wife and therefore desired her consent. It didn’t matter
that it was forced as long as she bowed freely to his will.
“Then so it shall be,” Dabir cackled gleefully as Kasim left. He picked up a cat-o-nine tail
whip and cracked it in air.
Joanne winced as she detected the sound of metal connecting. She realized that the whip’s
lashes were tipped with metal balls, intended for maximum pain. She licked her lips as he walked
around her, snapping the thongs softly against her naked skin, already covered in blue welts due to the
constant whippings and floggings he’d subjected her to. She was weakened, but not as much as Dabir
believed her to be. She still had enough strength in her to fight him—if she could get out of the fucking
chains.
“No, please. Not that. I’ll stop fighting! I swear. I’ll be whatever the Sheikh wants me to be,”
Joanne managed to shriek in a thin voice, her eyes wide and begging, with her body shuddering in the
restraints.
“I’m not so sure I believe you,” Dabir snorted. He pressed his face into hers. “Do you really
think I’m going to deny myself the pleasure of watching you buck and scream under my whip?
Especially now that I know how much you fear this one.”
“I’ll tell the sheikh! Do you really think he’ll be happy to know you gave him a bloodied body
when he could have had a willing wife to ride his cock like he desires?” Joanne countered him.
She’d overheard enough during her capture to know that Dabir feared his brother. She didn’t
blame him. The rumors she’d heard were enough to make her shudder. Sheikh Lufti wasn’t known for
being benevolent. Hah. But, since she’d overheard that he wanted to make her his fourth wife, it
began to make sense why the Sheikh Lufti hadn’t chosen to ‘tame’ her himself. In some demented way,
he believed she would be more susceptible to her fate if he wasn’t the one dishing out the cruelty. The
sheikh had made it clear that she had to remain untouched by the guards and brought to him pure.
She’d almost laughed aloud listening to that, wondering what had given him the idea that she was a
virgin.
Dabir hesitated and glowered at her. “You’re trying to trick me. It won’t work, bitch.”
“No, please. I’ve had enough,” she whined fearfully, bearing back as he swung the whip in her
direction again. Her breath wheezed out of her throat as this time the thongs connected with a lot more
sting. “I swear I will be willing. I’ll do anything he asks of me!”
“I’m warning you, if my brother isn’t satisfied with your performance, there won’t be any skin
left on your body when I’m done with you.”
Joanne shook her head and sobbed. “I’ll be good, I swear. Please, I beg you.”
Dabir fisted her hair and yanked back her head. He spat into her face, “You better be and be
warned, slut, Lufti has decided that you are to be his bride. It’s an honor that others would kill for.
That’s why he doesn’t want you unwilling. He wants his people to believe in your willingness and
purity. Is that clear?”
“Yes, I’ll do whatever the sheikh asks of me.”
