Chapter 5
A pair of scissors flew through the air and struck the maid in the shoulder.
Damien’s lips curled into a cruel smile.
“Looks like Jasmine’s been bribing you people all along. I’ll give you one more chance–tell me, who’s the real Mrs. Lancaster?”
The maid instantly dropped to her knees, trembling.
“I’m sorry, ma’am!” she cried, facing Vivian. “I misspoke! I’ll punish myself!”
And with that, she began slapping her own face over and over again.
Vivian clung to Damien’s arm with a pitiful look.
“Maybe I should just leave… No one here seems to like me.”
The maid panicked, spun around, and yanked the dog chain back around my neck.
Like she was training an animal, she kicked me in the ribs.
“Crawl!”
Then she turned to Vivian, smiling flatteringly.
“Don’t worry, ma’am–we all like you!”
Only then did Vivian finally smile, smug and satisfied.
And through it all, Damien’s eyes never left her face.
He looked at her with a kind of obsessive indulgence.
Like I didn’t exist.
Like a dog, I was chained at the front gates of the Lancaster estate.
All night and all day, I was forced to listen to the moans and gasps echoing from the master
bedroom above.
The next evening, guests arrived in droves.
Damien and Vivian stood at the door, hand in hand, playing the part of a loving couple, greeting

everyone like they were king and queen.
No one even looked at me.
The socialites I used to call friends walked past me and showered Vivian with compliments.
Then, seeing me in my shorn, humiliating state, they let loose.
“Well, well… isn’t that the former Mrs. Lancaster? What happened, darling? You look like a bald toad guarding the door!”
“Can’t believe she was ever called that. Please–compared to the other mistresses Damien keeps, she’s downright filthy.”
“You haven’t heard? After the Monroes kicked her and her mom out, they ended up doing
God–knows–what for money. That’s probably why she’s barren.”
More laughter followed.
A few rich playboys whistled.
One even tossed a piece of meat in front of me like he was feeding a stray dog, his hand grazing my body without shame.
“Guess she really is unwanted now. How about giving me a shot, sweetheart?”
The others joined in, jeering loudly.
“Come on, Damien doesn’t want her anymore. Why shouldn’t we all have a taste?”
Someone reached out and unhooked the chain from
my
neck.
They didn’t even hesitate–ripping off my clothes, touching me, climbing on top of me.
They didn’t care about the blood soaking beneath me.
Didn’t care I was human.
Just laughed and kept moving.
And when I looked up–I saw him.
On the second floor, Damien was swirling a glass of wine.
Watching.

Cold. Silent.
When it got too noisy, he turned and walked away.
Didn’t say a word.
I finally closed my eyes.
But instead of darkness, I felt something warm splash across my cheek.
My eyes flew open.
The man on top of me was staring wide–eyed–his body frozen.
Blood poured from his slit throat.
He collapsed to the side.
The others screamed, scattering like rats.
And in the middle of it all, bathed in moonlight, stood a man.
When I saw his face, I gasped.
“You?”
A few minutes later, Damien received the signed land transfer documents from the Monroes.
He smiled faintly.
But then he remembered–Jasmine was still chained downstairs.
Those bastards had dared to touch his woman?
Fury exploded inside him.
Without sparing Vivian a glance, he stormed down the stairs like a god of wrath.
“Jasmine, I’m here to-”
But all he saw… was blood.
And a severed hand.
He rushed forward in horror.

Then he saw what was clutched in the cold, lifeless fingers–and dropped to his knees, face twisted
in devastation.
