The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing the world he didn’t exist.
\nBut who said the devil was a he?
\nIn my world, she was out to cause havoc on all our lives.
\nShe\u2019ll use the one thing I care most about to control me\u2014force me into her Elite world, filled with sin, deceit, and power. And under her spell, I\u2019ll lead a sinister brotherhood of seven at one of the most prestigious universities in New Orleans.
\nSeven tasks set forth by the devil herself, promising nothing less than the forbidden fruit of power. What they don\u2019t understand is it will all end in bloodshed and regret.
\nThey call me the alpha. The one in charge. The one with pride bigger than any task I could be given. And my pride won\u2019t let me be anywhere but at the top of the food chain until she gives me what I truly want.
\nMy task is Meghan Thorne.
\nShe\u2019s too pure for me to touch, too good for me to ruin\u2014and the only thing standing in my way to freedom.
\nAccept your sin wisely, for the tasks given to earn your place are not for the weak…they\u2019re for The Elite.
\nAs they say, pride comes before the fall.

<\/div>\n
Since 1942, The Elite Seven Society have created and guided influential leaders, molding the country into something better.\u00a0This society was birthed by Malcom Benedict, II who wanted more for Americans.\u00a0\u00a0More wealth.\u00a0\u00a0More influence.\u00a0\u00a0More power.\u00a0Some leaders have the skills, but not the influence, and that simply wasn\u2019t fair according to Mr. Benedict.\u00a0He invested his own money and time to construct a society that bred the best of the best, year after year.<\/div>\n
But to be the best, you must be ruthless.<\/div>\n
Good leaders make sacrifices.\u00a0\u00a0Sometimes the sacrifices are hard, but the rewards are plentiful.\u00a0\u00a0Mr. Benedict made sure to indulge these leaders with their utmost desires.\u00a0\u00a0A devout Catholic himself, he designed a society that rewarded his leaders with the sins that were frowned upon.\u00a0\u00a0If they were giving up love and happiness and joy for the betterment of the country, they deserved something in its stead.<\/div>\n
Pride, Envy, Wrath, Sloth, Greed, Gluttony, and Lust.<\/div>\n
Choosing leaders for this society means that it takes intense focus.\u00a0\u00a0Only seven are to be selected, and the investments and time are showered upon the new seven chosen every four years.\u00a0\u00a0The predecessors of each group of seven choose people who fit the sin that will mold them into who they are needed to be in the future\u2014what America needs them to be.\u00a0\u00a0This is after a detailed study of many potential candidates.\u00a0\u00a0The university\u2019s acting dean behaves as a liaison for the society bringing the college applicants to the predecessors so that the selection may begin.\u00a0\u00a0The society members who are going out will bring forth a candidate that the society votes on and approves.<\/div>\n
After they are chosen, the initiates are given a token and an invitation to initiation.\u00a0\u00a0The initiation will be a test to their character and ability to do what\u2019s right for the betterment of the society.\u00a0\u00a0Once the initiates pass their test, they are discreetly branded with the mark of the society, and are groomed through challenges during the course of their elite education to breed them into the influential people they were meant to be.<\/div>\n
Once in The Elite Seven, there is no getting out.\u00a0The money and power are their reward.\u00a0Should they choose to stray or break the rules, the society strips them of everything.\u00a0\u00a0Anything they once had will be removed.\u00a0\u00a0Opportunities will never arise.\u00a0\u00a0They will no longer have the support of the society.\u00a0\u00a0To this day, there have been no known occurrences of anyone from the society having to be banished.\u00a0\u00a0This elite group of people are what every young man and woman aspire to be a part of.\u00a0\u00a0While the group is a secret society, they are whispered about amongst the privileged folks in the country.\u00a0\u00a0Anyone who is anyone knows of the group and secretly hopes it\u2019s their son or daughter who are selected, for good fortune is showered on the family for decades to come.<\/div>\n

\"\"<\/a>I was born with wealth, athletic ability, and looks that could melt the panties off a nun.
\nI had a clear path to success.
\nUntil fate dealt me a cruel blow, leaving me empty and in need of purpose.
\nMy only focus now is to become part of The Elite\u2014a secret society in one of the most prestigious colleges in the world.
\nBut everything comes at a price, and with The Elite, you have to earn your place.
\nLucky for me, being sinful is in my DNA.
\nThe only obstacle to full initiation is my task: seduce the un-seducible, the forbidden, and lure her with the sins of the flesh.
\nEasy for a man like me\u2026in theory.
\nShe started as my task, but what happens when the lines between lust and love blur, and the need for power rages war with the need for her?
\nAccept your sin wisely, for the tasks given to earn your place are not for the weak\u2014they\u2019re for The Elite.
\nThis is my life, my chance, my legacy.
\nI am Rhett Masters.
\nI am Lust.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>I\u2019m a motherless son to a father who hates me. Fury has lived and breathed in my black heart for so long, it\u2019s a part of my soul now. The only thing that\u2019s ever mattered to me is protecting my twin sister, Sabella, from my father\u2019s temper.
\nSo when the chance to join a secret society presents itself, there\u2019s no question I\u2019ll do whatever it takes to become a member and earn my place in the ranks of only the most Elite.
\nWith a taste for the deviant, I\u2019m drawn to the darkest of desires, and no one ever leaves my bed unscathed.
\nMy task: seduce Patience Noelle, St. Augustine\u2019s sweetheart and the mayor\u2019s beloved daughter\u2014then break her heart.
\nSinning is what I live for, and deviance is my passion. Failing has never been an option.

\"\"<\/a>It was temptation that broke the sinner.
\nPeople say I have everything.
\nThey\u2019re wrong.
\nI may have looks, money, and privilege, but I don\u2019t have the one thing that really matters, the one thing I crave: a woman with eyes only for me.
\nI\u2019m searching for my woman\u2014one who will fall to her knees because I\u2019m her king. She\u2019ll wear the crown of my tarnished name, and long for me when I\u2019m not near. And when I am close, she\u2019ll be naked across my lap, feeling the sting of my palm across her milky skin.
\nYou could say I\u2019m a sinner because I\u2019d do anything to have the perfect woman\u2014compliant to my every need and whim\u2014and I\u2019m envious of every couple who walks around naive to the luxury they have.
\nThat\u2019s why I joined The Elite, the most prestigious brotherhood in the south.
\nIt\u2019s the one place that will give me what I cannot have.
\nOnly\u2026the task assigned to me is too much for my jealous eyes.
\nAccept your sin wisely, for the tasks given to earn your place are not for the weak…they\u2019re for The Elite.
\nThose who envy have no peace.

\"\"<\/a>I was born into a world of darkness\u2014one that never touched me when I was around my brother, Mason Blackwell. Leader of The Elite Seven. The thing about darkness, though, is it\u2019s persistent. Eventually, it pushes itself into my life, penetrating my soul and leaving its stench latched to every vein, rooted inside every bone, and sunken into every pore. I thought I reached rock bottom when I fell in love with my brother\u2019s best friend. My very own brand of drug with no comedown. My own nightmare I never woke from. But I was wrong. So very wrong. When I returned to New Orleans, I arrived as a shell of the girl they once knew. Put on a smile. Be the sweet innocent girl they remember.
\nI\u2019m Evie Blackwell, hostage to my demons. Can the damned be saved?
\nI\u2019ve done some unforgivable acts in my years, but I never asked for forgiveness. Nothing beats the feeling of wrapping my hand around someone\u2019s throat and watching as their life bleeds down their cheeks. She was everything I should have stayed away from. The first night I saw her, I knew I was doomed\u2014a slave to the girl with the pretty eyes and soft smile. The girl who turned out to be my best friend’s baby sister. I couldn\u2019t stay away. I had to be near her, even if it meant ruining her in the process. I wanted to wreck her, so I could piece her back together\u2014a puzzle only I knew how to solve.
\nI\u2019m Micah Dixon.
\nGreed.
\nI come for everything and get everything I come for\u2014and I want all of her. But she\u2019s changed, and so have I.
\nI\u2019m much, much worse now\u2026<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/strong><\/div>\n

\"\"<\/a>My life has been served to me on a gold platter to be devoured by my silver spoon.
\nMoney, money, and more money. It\u2019s the backbone of the Goddard name. I\u2019m the only son, so it\u2019s all mine for the taking.
\nBut sometimes money isn\u2019t enough. I always want more, yet nothing seems to satisfy me.
\nMy father has made sure I become a part of The Elite Seven. Where most candidates are chosen, I was given my place. Everything comes at a price, though. Luckily, I can afford any price\u2014no one has more money than God.
\nThe Elite Seven have their initiations. My assignment is personal and beneath me: steal a car and send a warning. It\u2019ll hurt my best friend in the process, but we both made a pact going into this. There\u2019s no line we won\u2019t cross.
\nMy task makes an ugly turn and I nearly take a life. Such a small, unimportant person\u2014someone no one would even notice was gone. She\u2019s a problem my money and power can easily sweep under the rug.
\nIt\u2019s what my father wants. It\u2019s what my brothers want. But when she finally opens those big, innocent brown eyes, I realize I\u2019ve found what I\u2019ve been searching for my entire life. I don\u2019t want my little problem to disappear\u2026I want to keep her.
\nAccept your sin wisely, for the tasks given to earn your place are not for the weak\u2014they\u2019re for The Elite.
\nMoney is my legacy, but I want something money can\u2019t buy.
\nI am Baxter Samuel Goddard V.

\"\"<\/a>I don\u2019t give a fuck.
\nNot about money or fame, beauty or power. I\u2019ve had all those things since birth, and trust me, they\u2019re a fucking snooze.
\nI don\u2019t give a fuck about anyone, not even myself.
\nUntil my father proves evil can exist in the most holy of places. For the first time ever, something like interest stirs in my soul.
\nHe wants me to enroll at St. Augustine.
\nJoin The Elite.
\nCourt the virginal daughter of Archbishop Savoie.
\nProve to him I\u2019m worth the family name.
\nI\u2019ll do it all.
\nAnd I\u2019ll do it so well, no one will know what\u2019s coming. People are so quick to underestimate the wicked and lazy.
\nThey forget idle hands are the best tools for the devil\u2019s work.
