People in the city released orcs that nobody wanted to the countryside, and a friend notified me to go and pick one up. When I arrived after finishing killing the last pig, there was only a small little pig that nobody wanted left. He was covered in wounds and looked at me with fear. "You don't have anyone to take care of you either? I'll take you with me," I said with compassion, holding the little pig and walking towards the pig slaughterhouse. Suddenly, my arms felt damp, and I realized that I had forgotten that he had already been bitten to death by the orcs in the city.

I looked down and saw my arms were empty. Sonya was calling my name from the shore, afraid I might do something foolish.

My orc was already dead. The little pig, who was about to build a bond with me, had been brutally killed by a city lady's orc while delivering goods. When I returned to the village, Jayden's body was shattered. He took one last look at me, coughed up blood, and then fell silent.

I sat there all night. He was just an orc that others had rejected; I had no choice in the matter. I shouldn't have cared about him. But the tears wouldn't stop flowing. I didn't even dare to touch his cold body. When he was buried, I couldn't bring myself to watch.

"Jayden, you were the one who insisted on being with me. How could you leave without a word?"

"Why did you break your promise first?"

My questions could never reach him. That night, I went to bed early and had a long dream.

"Mistress, if I could build a bond with you, it would be the greatest fortune of my life. One day, I will make you fall in love with me."

His words still echoed in my ears.

Every year, the Orc Deity Tree bore Orc Fruits. When the fruits ripened into orcs, women of age could go and claim them. Once a bond was formed, orcs could only survive by relying on their women. However, the best orcs were always chosen by the city folks first, leaving the rest, often livestock-like, for the villagers.

I didn't mind having a little pig as a partner; it suited my profession. When I went to claim him, the little pig was so scared that he fainted and wet himself in fear. He was truly pitiful. Severely injured by someone and sent to the village, only to be chosen by a pig farmer. It was no wonder he was so terrified that he lost control of his bladder.

I quickly took the little pig to the pond and gently washed him. Since I was also dirty, I joined him in the pond to wash up. After we were clean, I took the still-frightened Jayden to the wooden hut to dry by the fire.

In an instant, the little pig transformed into a human, trembling as he knelt before me.

"Mistress, please spare my life. Don't butcher me..."

I couldn't help but smile with interest.

"How did you get beaten half to death?"

"Uh, I got stepped on by the Great White Tiger when I landed..."

I was surprised and gently lifted the little pig's chin. His face had a youthful charm mixed with cautious timidity.

"Mistress, please don't kill me. I don't have much meat on me. Even if you wanted to eat me, I haven't been fattened up, so my meat wouldn't taste good!"

He made me sound like a heartless butcher. I laughed and waved the wooden token that controls unbonded orcs, and he turned back into a little pig. This token was used by women to control unbonded orcs. I held the little pig in my arms.

"I won't kill you, nor will I build a bond with you. I'm just afraid that if you're thrown back into the mountains, you'll really end up as butchered meat."

He trembled in my arms, his big round eyes stealing a glance at me.

From then on, we were bound by fate. I gave him his freedom, but he chose to stay by my side. Born to a madwoman, I rarely had anyone close to me. Jayden became the light on my solitary path.

"Mistress, Mistress!"

Jayden's joyful voice rang out. I awoke from my dream. The bed beside me was cold, making me uneasy.

I was just a placeholder, a warm body in silk sheets to keep the bed from getting cold while my billionaire "owner," Garrick Head, dreamt of another man’s wife. To the world, I was Ever Wells, the lucky girl he’d plucked from obscurity, but in reality, I was a doll on a 145-day contract, counting every second until I could disappear. Everything shattered when a burner phone buzzed in my hand with a message that turned my blood to ice: "I know your secret, Everly." My real name was the one thing I had buried to protect my four-year-old son, Leo, who was hidden in a cramped apartment in Queens. Just as the blackmailer closed in, Leo’s asthma flared into a life-threatening fever, and the medication he needed cost thousands I didn't have. When I tried to siphon money to save him, Garrick sensed my desperation and froze my credit cards, mocking my "poverty" and demanding I crawl back to his bed to earn his favor. The nightmare intensified at a high-society gala when Clarence Frazier, a dangerous ghost from my past, cornered me. He mouthed my real name in front of the cameras, his eyes promising to tear my fake life apart. Garrick’s possessiveness turned violent as he broke a man’s jaw for insulting me, yet in the same breath, he reminded me I was nothing but a "rented whore" he’d bought off a shelf. I had to smile while he kissed me and detach my mind while he touched me, all while siphoning pennies into a hidden account. He thought he could finalize my imprisonment with a twenty-million-dollar apartment on Central Park West, calling it a gift when it was really just a heavier lock on my golden cage. "I don't want to save the world," I whispered to the empty, marble penthouse after he fell asleep. "I just want to save my son." With a predator from my past watching my every move and a master who treated me like a pet, I realized I couldn't wait for my contract to end. I had to run tonight, or Leo and I would both die in this cage.

For four years, I traced the bullet scar on Chace’s chest, believing it was proof he would bleed to keep me safe. On our anniversary, he told me to wear white because "tonight changes everything." I walked into the gala thinking I was getting a ring. Instead, I stood frozen in the center of the ballroom, drowning in silk, watching him slide his mother's sapphire onto another woman's finger. Karyn Warren. The daughter of a rival family. When I begged him with my eyes to claim me, to save me from the public humiliation, he didn't flinch. He just leaned toward his Underboss, his voice amplified by the silence. "Karyn is for power. Ember is for pleasure. Don't confuse the assets." My heart didn't just break; it incinerated. He expected me to stay as his mistress, threatening to dig up my dead mother’s grave if I refused to play the obedient pet. He thought I was trapped. He thought I had nowhere to go because of my father’s massive gambling debts. He was wrong. With shaking hands, I pulled out my phone and texted the one name I was never supposed to use. Keith Mosley. The Don. The monster under Chace's bed. *I am invoking the Blood Oath. My father’s debt. I am ready to pay it.* His reply came three seconds later, buzzing against my palm like a warning. *The price is marriage. You belong to me. Yes or No?* I looked up at Chace, who was laughing with his new fiancée, thinking he owned me. I looked down and typed three letters. *Yes.*
