Whilst wallowing in his defeat, Henry unexpectedly discovers that Kristin s rise to power involved illegally acquired software. He confronts her with the evidence of her crime and offers her a deal: in return for his silence, she is to obey his every command - effectively becoming his slave. Kristin is initially horrified but after considering her options, reluctantly agrees to go along with his arrangement until she can figure a way out. She soon discovers however, that Henry has no intention of giving her a moment s rest, as she is systematically stripped of first her clothing and then her dignity. Caned, collared, gagged, publicly humiliated, forced into oral sex, Kristin is kept in a constant state of fear, pain and confusion.

Convinced now that he has Kristin totally under his control, Henry takes the game to a higher level when he gives her a new job description at OFS - she is forced to act the part of the office bimbo, which includes sexually servicing clients and co-workers alike. Now at her nadir, Kristin begins to lose her identity as she carries out her increasingly demeaning instructions without protest. She dimly recalls the proud and intelligent woman she once was, but can she find an escape route before her subjugation becomes complete and irreversible?

Book excerpt: To escape her father's marriage match, a lady flees to Scotland—where her false identity leads to true love in this steamy Regency romance. Lady Samantha Chatterworth will do anything to avoid being forced into a loveless marriage by her tyrannical duke of a father. That would explain why she's in Edinburgh, Scotland, calling herself Miss Miranda. She soon finds safety working in the household of the unsuspecting—and irresistible—Heathcliff Marston, Viscount Kilpatrick. Between the gentlemen's club he runs and his newly acquired ward, Heathcliff has enough to worry about without investigators hounding him about some duke's runaway daughter. At least he's secured a governess—no doubt a sour woman. Or so he expects, until he meets intriguing Miranda. Certainly, a peer of the realm would never entertain a dalliance with the help . . . but this is no ordinary dalliance, and the Viscount is no ordinary peer of the realm . . .

Download or read book The Perfect Volume written by Kristin Melum Eide and published by John Benjamins Publishing Company. This book was released on 2021-07-15 with total page 495 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drawing on the data and history from a wide range of languages, from Atayal to Zapotec, this volume brings together leading scholars in the field of tense and aspect research resulting in 18 contributions on the perfect and some of its close relatives (e.g. iamitives). Different approaches complement each other to shed light on the source, emergence, grammaticalization, and the typological extension of perfect constructions cross-linguistically. One focal point is the so-called aoristic drift, where the perfect comes to resemble the simple past or aorist (often via the hodiernal ‘today’ reading). The semantics and pragmatics of perfects are also investigated through their interaction with other categories (e.g. negation, mood). Over time some perfects undergo auxiliary doubling or omission, or the auxiliary becomes subject to selection. These facts also receive special attention in this book, presenting new insights on perfects in both well-studied as well as very understudied languages.

Download or read book Finiteness Matters written by Kristin Melum Eide and published by John Benjamins Publishing Company. This book was released on 2016-08-25 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Although standardly recognized by linguists of many diverse theoretical persuasions, finiteness continues to figure among [...] the most poorly understood concepts of linguistic theory”. This was eloquently stated by Ledgeway (2000, 2007) and remains true even today. The present volume thus aims to shed some much needed light on this area of linguistic theorizing, with eleven chapters approaching finiteness phenomena from the fields of syntax, semantics, language acquisition, and Creole studies, and providing data from a range of different languages. Traditionally, approaches to finiteness within the Principles and Parameters framework have seen as their main aim to understand the relation between the morphological exponents of finiteness and the syntactic operations seemingly depending on these exponents. The papers in this volume mostly take their point of departure from this more traditional view on finiteness, before elaborating on, modifying and diverging from this tradition in novel and interesting ways.

Book excerpt: A vampire has never been a hero in their land, but now one is their only hope. The king is dead, but Prince Keiran has no desire to take his place. All he wants is the freedom to pursue the woman he loves. His status makes that illegal, and the widespread rumors of his vampirism aren’t helping. Still, the country is in the death throes of collapse, and Keiran is the only one who can rescue it. His father's top advisor publicly opposes Keiran under the guise of wanting to save their nation from the fate of other vampire-controlled realms. However, his real motivations are far from heroic. He rose to power by killing those who challenged him, and he’s one murder away from stealing Keiran’s birthright. After twenty-three years of abstinence from human blood, Keiran is in no condition to fight his demon-summoning rival. However, the alternative is death, and the country falling under the spell of his opponent's black magic. Though Keiran doesn’t want to be king, he's always been a patriot, and he will do whatever it takes to save his nation—if he can survive.
