Chapter 1

Elias Penrose froze.The messages on his phone kept coming in. He opened the video the man had sent, and there was Adeline Kerrick, wearing revealing lingerie and crawling across the floor. A metal chain was fastened around her neck, and the man held the other end.The look on her face, as if she were savoring every second of it, was one Elias had never seen before."You really thought your wife was some innocent little angel?""I've had her trained since college. She does whatever I tell her.""Even marrying you was just part of our game."As message after message flooded his screen, Elias felt the floor drop out from under him. He opened the first video, watched only a few seconds, and locked his phone. But the image of Adeline, tongue out and eyes glazed over, refused to leave his head.Disgusting was the only word for it, and he'd never imagined he would one day use it to describe Adeline.Once he'd calmed down a little, Elias searched "contracted pet" online. What came up

Chapter 2

So the woman he'd held so dear, the one he'd treasured above everything, was nothing more than another man's dog.By the time Elias sobered up, the next morning had already come. He hadn't expected the pain to be even worse once the alcohol wore off.After a moment's hesitation, he took out a scalpel and cut a line across his arm. Adeline's father, Lionel Kerrick, had been injured nine times saving him—and Elias intended to pay back every one of those wounds, one at a time.Just then, Adeline came home. She'd been out having fun all day and night, and exhaustion was written all over her. Without even a glance at Elias, she said offhandedly, "I'm hungry."Every time she'd said that before, Elias had gone straight to the kitchen and cooked all her favorite dishes. For three years, she'd bossed him around and treated him like a slave, ordering him about whenever the mood struck her.Once she'd said her piece, Adeline went to her own bedroom, collapsed onto the bed, and fell asleep in

The man smiled and greeted Elias. "Hi."The moment he heard that voice, the hair on the back of Elias' neck stood up. It was the man who'd sent him those messages!Elias stared at Adeline in a daze. He'd never imagined she could actually be this cruel to him.Adeline went ahead with the introductions as if nothing were wrong. "Honey, this is my friend, Ansel Crowe. Ansel, this is my husband, Elias Penrose."Ansel pushed up his glasses, a quiet mockery in the way he looked at Elias. "I know. You talk about him all the time. You always say he's a great cook."He emphasized those last few words in a way that made them sound more like a put-down than a compliment."Come on, I'll give you the tour."Adeline pulled Ansel away and showed him all around the house, leaving Elias alone in the kitchen to cook. When they reached the bedroom, Ansel chuckled. "Doing it in here would be such a rush."Adeline blushed and didn't answer.By evening, Elias had filled the table with food. Only th

For a moment, it was as if the woman in front of him were still the wife Elias loved with all his heart."Then why don't we have your husband come up here and take on a game challenge with you? If you win, you'll get tickets to the star's concert!"Adeline flushed bright red with excitement, and Elias didn't need to think twice to know she wanted those tickets. He was hesitantly getting ready to go up when Adeline suddenly pointed in the complete opposite direction. "My husband's right over there!"The words had barely left her mouth when Ansel, standing not far away, strolled onto the stage.Elias' lips parted as he watched, shocked. The host explained the game's rules. As long as the two of them kissed in front of everyone for more than an hour, they'd win the tickets. Before Elias could react, Ansel cupped Adeline's face and kissed her.People around him began to chatter."Wow, what a gorgeous couple. They're perfect together!""The husband even bought his wife a kitten. He

Chapter 5

Elias stepped forward and gathered the kitten's body into his arms. Adeline didn't want it, but he did.He tore off his jacket and roughly tied it around his wound, then drove the kitten to a park. After he buried it, he sat beside the little grave in a daze for a while before finally getting up and heading to the hospital.As soon as he walked into the ER, he found Adeline and Ansel making a scene. "He's badly hurt! What gives you the right to refuse to bandage him?"The doctor beside them tried to explain. "I've told you over and over, it's just a surface wound! It's tiny, so all he needs is a little disinfectant, and then he can go!"But Adeline wouldn't have it and insisted on a bandage. They were still at a standstill when she spotted Elias. "Perfect timing. You're a surgeon at this hospital, aren't you? Hurry up and bandage Ansel!"His coworkers noticed Elias too. "Dr. Penrose, what happened to your arm? Are you hurt?"Elias didn't answer. He walked over to Ansel and looked

To Elias's surprise, Adeline brought Ansel along and climbed into the car with him. "The more people we have, the more we can look out for each other on the road."Elias didn't say anything. He just stepped on the gas, and the car shot off down the road.Ansel and Adeline sat together in the back seat and flirted the whole way, treating Elias like he was nothing more than their driver. When Ansel spotted the food in the back, he mocked Elias. "It's not like we're taking a bunch of kids on a field trip. Why'd you buy so many snacks?"Adeline chimed in, "Exactly. We're not three-year-olds. Who's going to eat all this stuff?"Elias stayed silent. As far as he was concerned, there was nothing left worth arguing with them about.After five hours on the road, they finally reached the countryside. They were winding up a steep, rugged mountain road. They were nearly at the cemetery when dark clouds suddenly rolled across the sky, and a torrential downpour broke loose.A mudslide came t

"If you're going to eat someone, eat me! Don't you dare hurt Ansel!" Adeline shouted.Ansel huddled behind her without a shred of guilt. When he caught sight of Elias in the front seat, he shouted at him, "Elias, why aren't you getting out of the car? Are you just going to sit there and watch Adeline get hurt?"As the bear's claws came down again and again, Adeline dropped her earlier hesitation. "Elias, get out first and draw it away, or it's going to drag Ansel off!"Elias had thought nothing could stir his feelings anymore, but he still felt like his heart had been stabbed. Adeline was willing to sacrifice him just to keep Ansel alive.In the next instant, the bear accidentally hit the door handle and yanked the door open with a bang. Almost immediately, it thrust its body inside, seized Adeline by the leg, and dragged her out of the car. Adeline fainted from sheer terror, while Ansel stayed curled up in the corner as if it had nothing to do with him.Elias reached out to sto

Ansel put everything he had into the blow, clearly trying to kill Elias. "You saved Adeline. If she ever finds out the truth, do you really think she'll keep obeying my orders like a good pet? That's why you have to die!"Elias lay on the ground, barely breathing, with no strength left. Ansel tossed the rock aside, ran back, and climbed onto the helicopter. Elias tried to call for help, but before he could make a sound, he watched the helicopter fly farther and farther away.He closed his eyes in despair.He didn't know how much time had passed when a drop of rain landed at the corner of his mouth. Elias' eyes flew open, and a fierce will to live suddenly surged through him.He dragged himself over to the car and took out the first aid kit he always kept in the trunk. Gritting his teeth against the pain, he cleaned the wound on his head with rubbing alcohol several times, then put in a few stitches to stop the bleeding.He went through all of it without anesthetic, simply clench

Chapter 9

It wasn't until evening that Adeline finally wandered back to Elias' hospital room. When she saw the bed was empty, she didn't think much of it and assumed he'd gone to the bathroom. She sat down to wait, but no matter how long she waited, he still didn't show.For some reason, a sudden unease came over her. Her heart began beating faster and faster, and Adeline pressed a hand to her chest, unable to understand what was happening to her. She called out Elias' name loudly, but the person who came running at the sound of her voice was Ansel, from the next room."What's wrong?" he asked.Adeline paused, and the anxiety she'd felt a moment ago vanished instantly. "It's nothing. Elias is just gone."Ansel wrapped an arm around her shoulders. "He doesn't matter. If he's gone, he's gone. What's the big deal? I've wanted you to leave him for a long time anyway."Adeline looked up at him in disbelief. "Leave him? Why? Weren't you the one who told me to be with him in the first place?"The

Chapter 10

Back in the present, Ansel's hands began to wander over Adeline's body. "Let's do it right here. It'll be a rush."Adeline didn't resist. Ansel was her master, and his word was law. He was just about to lift her skirt when a nurse walked in, and the two of them quickly pulled apart at the sound.The nurse stripped off the duvet cover and sheets to send them to the laundry. Adeline stared at her. "There's still a patient in this room. Why are you clearing it out?"The nurse gave her an odd look. "The patient was discharged a while ago.""He hasn't even recovered yet. How could he have been discharged?" Adeline could hardly believe it.The nurse thought back for a moment, then said with certainty, "He left first thing this morning. Aren't you his family? You didn't know?"Adeline was at a loss for words, but Ansel smiled. "Good riddance. At least he had the sense to leave, since he was nothing but an eyesore around here anyway."Ansel was right here beside her, yet Adeline wasn't
