I Left After Being Whipped 99 Times
Born with congenital insensitivity to pain, I was the secret mistress and security guard of the wealthiest man, Julian Sterling, for eight years.
Everyone within the same upper social class knew that Julian never got himself close to any women. I was the only exception.
At some point, his first love, Chloe Smith, angered a gang leader, Vinnie Anderson. She had to sacrifice a body part in exchange for his mercy.
Without a hint of hesitation, Julian made me the sacrifice. I was whipped 99 times. Three of my fingers were cut off on behalf of Chloe.
“You can’t feel pain, anyway. This won’t make a difference to you. But Chloe is delicate and frail. She won’t be able to withstand this torture.”
I finally realized that I was just a useful tool to Julian.
Hence, when I was scouted, I kept him in the dark.
Instead, I accepted the offer made by his opponent.
