[The Elite Seven 05] • Gluttony

My life has been served to me on a gold platter to be devoured by my silver

spoon.

Money, money, and more money. It’s the backbone of the Goddard name. I’m the

only son, so it’s all mine for the taking.

But sometimes money isn’t enough. I always want more, yet nothing seems to

satisfy me.

My 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—no one has more money than God.

The Elite Seven have their initiations. My assignment is personal and beneath

me: steal a car and send a warning. It’ll hurt my best friend in the process,

but we both made a pact going into this. There’s no line we won’t cross.

My task makes an ugly turn and I nearly take a life. Such a small, unimportant

person—someone no one would even notice was gone. She’s a problem my money and

power can easily sweep under the rug.

It’s what my father wants. It’s what my brothers want. But when she finally

opens those big, innocent brown eyes, I realize I’ve found what I’ve been

searching for my entire life. I don’t want my little problem to disappear…I

want to keep her.

Accept your sin wisely, for the tasks given to earn your place are not for the

weak—they’re for The Elite.

Money is my legacy, but I want something money can’t buy.

I am Baxter Samuel Goddard V.

I am Gluttony.
