Chapter 1

When passion ran high, Ethan Blackwood fastened a woman’s nightgown around me and told me to get on my knees.

The tie around my throat cut off the oxygen to my brain, and I let him degrade me.

All because I had loved him for twelve years, and at last, I thought my wish had come true.

But early the next morning, feverish and burning up, I was slapped unconscious by his adopted sister, who mistook me for a rent boy.

Ethan woke me and told me to go to Frost Pavilion that night to clear up the misunderstanding with his adopted sister, meet his friends, and receive my rightful place.

I got lost and accidentally entered the control room, where I heard voices coming from the surveillance feed.

“To marry little Princess Chloe, you really made one hell of a sacrifice, huh?”

Ethan looked tenderly at Chloe Blackwood, who was drinking milk.

“My family won’t agree to me marrying Chloe, so I had to use the broken-window effect and find a man to force them to lower their standards.”

“Dress him up and play with him, and he’s no different from a woman.”

In an instant, my whole body went cold, and I collapsed to the floor.

Then I heard Ethan agree to those men’s request to try something new.

He said, “Julian Lane will be here soon, so enjoy yourselves.”
