Daddy’s Game

Chapter 1In the damp and dilapidated rental room, moans and gasps echoed endlessly from the bedroom. Emma no longer remembered how many times she had been forced to endure those disgusting sounds. She only recalled that ever since she became aware of the world, strange men had been coming and going in the house.Emma stared blankly at the workbook in front of her. To block out the sounds, she had to wear headphones with the volume turned up to the maximum. But the disgust and fear still coursed through her body, making her tremble involuntarily from time to time.“Is it still raining outside?” Emma mumbled softly. If it weren’t for the rain today, she could have gone out to find a quiet place to read instead of sitting here enduring all this.It was unclear how much time had passed before the noises from the adjacent room finally ceased, followed by the sweet laughter of her mother and the strange man.When the man left, he stopped by Emma’s room and looked at her with a lustful, gre

Chapter 3Just a simple reminder was enough to drain all color from May’s face. In her excitement, she had nearly forgotten her place. As a long-time employee at Nyxeria, May was fully aware of how twisted and violent Damien could be—what he hated most was being addressed by his name directly.Luckily, Damien wasn’t present. Otherwise, May feared she wouldn’t even get a taste of this wealthy life before dying a miserable death. Quickly trying to divert attention, she said, “Then please take us to our rooms. I still need to go shopping for my daughter later.”Alfred said no more and led them to the bedrooms that had already been prepared. Emma silently followed behind, her eyes shifting from one thing to another, filled with surprise and awe. She couldn’t believe a place like this was meant for people to live in. The outside of the mansion was already beautiful, but the inside was even more stunning.Emma’s and her mother’s rooms were on different floors. Emma’s room was on the third f

Chapter 5Two maids stood not far away, their cold gazes just like their master's, quickly approaching where May was sitting.May was horrified by Damien’s brutal words. Even though she knew he didn’t love her, she was still his wife—how could he be so cold and heartless? What had she meant to him these past two years?As the two maids got closer, May’s fear reached its peak. She rushed toward Damien, clinging to his legs and crying desperately.“No, no, no… honey, I know I was wrong, I know I was wrong… it was just a mistake, it won’t happen again. I’m begging you, you can’t treat me so cruelly. I’m your wife, I’m your wife… hic…”Damien kicked May away. Although it wasn’t with much force, it was enough to send her rolling away from him. He was in a terrible mood—if he wasn’t worried about dirtying his clothes, he would’ve made the woman in front of him shut up already.The two maids began dragging May outside. She couldn’t accept this ending; it was too cruel, too unbearable.“Thorn

Chapter 7 [R20+][Warning: This content contains violence and abuse. Please proceed with caution before reading.]Emma ignored his anger, biting down hard and refusing to open her mouth. She was terrified, but more than fear, she felt a profound disgust for this man and guilt towards her mother.How could she be so shameless as to engage in such perversion with her own mother's husband?Damien suddenly burst out laughing. He hadn't expected this little girl to be so stubborn. He hadn't intended to resort to violence, not even a slap. The first slap was merely a warning that if she behaved, he would be gentle. The second slap was still a warning; he thought a light hit would make her obedient.After all, for the past two years, Emma had always been a timid and compliant child."Ha… Emma, I don't want to hit you, but you're just not being good," Damien sighed as if deeply saddened.But no sooner had his words ended than the third, fourth, and fifth slaps rained down on Emma's face. Altho

Chapter 9The maid's gaze remained cold and emotionless from start to finish. She just watched Emma speak, offering no response. The lack of an answer made Emma even more frantic and distraught. She buried her face in her hands and sobbed uncontrollably, unable to accept the reality of what had happened.How could she accept being assaulted by her mother's husband, and then having her own mother hate and brazenly slander her? Emma had never felt so hopeless. She had thought that her mother would at least comfort her, but there were no words of solace.Throughout that day, Emma had no appetite to eat or drink. She just lay there, staring blankly into the distance. Perhaps the only thing she felt lucky about was that the bastard hadn't appeared in front of her since that night.After making a full recovery, Emma was able to return to school. Alfred had helped her use the excuse that she was sick, so when she arrived, no one noticed anything unusual besides asking how she was. Emma tried
