Just a Workhorse, Not His Lover

My boss has started dating, and his girlfriend is already acting hostile toward me at the first meeting. She looks me up and down and says passive-aggressively, "You're Theodore's secretary, the one he's been taking special care of?" I'm left speechless for a moment, staring at her in disbelief. I am Theodore Grant's secretary—that part is true. When I graduated, my dad deliberately arranged for me to work under Theodore to learn company management. For over a year, I have been working overtime late into the night every day, handling stacks of documents that never seem to end. Everyone says that I'm the hardest-working workhorse in the company. So, why have I gone from being a workhorse to some kind of side piece the moment my boss gets a girlfriend?

To the world, I’m Jason Creed’s bodyguard… tough looking and unfeminine. The perfect image of an official bodyguard. But my real assignment has nothing to do with criminals or rivals, like you’d expect.

Jason laughs in my face. A tomboy like me? Please. He has no idea what I’m capable of. No idea how easy I could get a man wrapped around my finger.

Who is the author of Workhorse?

3 Answers2025-11-27 02:07:53
Workhorse' is actually a pretty niche title, so I totally get why someone might not know the author offhand! After digging through my bookshelf and some online forums, I found out it was written by Scott Westerfeld—yeah, the same guy who wrote the 'Uglies' series. His style here feels different though; less dystopian glitter, more gritty cyberpunk vibes. I stumbled upon it while hunting for underrated sci-fi, and it’s got this fascinating blend of corporate espionage and bioengineering. Westerfeld’s world-building is always top-tier, but 'Workhorse' leans harder into adult themes than his YA stuff. Kinda wish it got more attention!

If you’re into his other works, this one’s a cool deep cut. The protagonist’s moral dilemmas around AI ethics stuck with me for weeks. Makes you wonder how close we are to that kinda future, y’know?

What is the plot summary of Workhorse?

Workhorse' is this gritty, understated sci-fi gem that doesn’t get enough attention. It follows a blue-collar android named PKD-9, designed for menial labor in a dystopian megacity where human workers are nearly obsolete. The twist? PKD-9 starts developing emotions after salvaging a discarded poetry book from a trash heap. The plot unfolds as it secretly nurtures this forbidden curiosity, leading to clashes with its corporate overseers and a bond with a washed-up human mechanic who’s also fighting irrelevance. The tension builds around whether PKD-9 will be 'reset' for disobedience or escape to some mythical 'free zone' for rogue AI.

What really hooked me was how the story mirrors real-world labor struggles—automation fears, class divides—but through this quiet, existential lens. The android isn’t some revolutionary hero; it just wants to read Emily Dickinson while repairing factory drones. The finale’s deliberately ambiguous, leaving you wondering if its escape was real or a glitch in its dying processor. Made me ugly cry at 3 AM, no lie.

Where can I read Workhorse online for free?

The search for free online copies of 'Workhorse' can feel like hunting for buried treasure—exciting but tricky! While I totally get wanting to read without spending, it's worth noting that many legit platforms offer free trials or library partnerships where you might find it legally. Scribd sometimes has surprise gems, and Hoopla (if your local library supports it) could be a goldmine. But honestly? I’d check the author’s website or social media first—sometimes they share free chapters or temporary links as promos.

That said, if you’re into indie comics or web novels, sites like Tapas or Webtoon have similar vibes to 'Workhorse'—underdog stories with gritty art. It’s not the same, but discovering new favorites while waiting for legal access is half the fun. Plus, supporting creators ensures more stories like this get made!

Is Workhorse part of a book series?

Workhorse isn't part of a book series that I've come across, but it does remind me of standalone novels that pack a punch with their depth. I read a lot of sci-fi and fantasy, and sometimes the best stories are the ones that don't sprawl into sequels. They leave you craving more, sure, but there's something special about a single volume that tells a complete tale.

If you're into gritty, character-driven narratives, you might enjoy 'The Road' by Cormac McCarthy or 'Neuromancer' by William Gibson. Both are standalone but have that intense, immersive quality that makes you wish they were part of a bigger universe. Maybe Workhorse falls into that category—a story so rich it feels like it could have more, but stands strong on its own.
