I’ve always been known for bedding women and then breaking their hearts. It’s just who I am. So when a bet I knew I couldn’t lose was presented to me, I knew I couldn’t turn it down. The rules were simple: draw a name from a hat, then seduce that woman–make her fall head over heels in love with you. I was sure it would be easy until I saw her name inked on the paper. Jules Peterson. My first love, my first kiss, and my first heartbreak. She was my former best friend until she left me when I needed her the most. Now, though? I’ll make her pay. All that anger, hate, and heartbreak tainted me, and I plan to show her just how bad it hurt. She used to be my everything, but now she’s just The Bet. --
