Chapter 1
William received a hard slap across his face.
“Why are my clothes not ironed?” Damon barked angrily. “You never asked me to iron your clothes, Master Damon.” William explained trying to hide the pain he felt from the slap. “What? are you calling me a liar?” Damon angrily slammed his fist against his face. The punch sent William to the floor, blood dripping from his cut lip. Damon’s arms were huge and well built. He was a professional boxer and the best in Crenshaw city, so getting punched by him felt like being hit with a hard brick. Damon had forgotten to tell William to iron his clothes, but he was going to punish him regardless. William quickly went to his knees. “I’m sorry Master Damon. Forgive my forgetfulness.” Damon wasn’t having his apology and kicked him across the face inflicting another injury. “You’re more useless than a pig. I always feel bad for my sister who had to marry a piece of shit like you.” William quickly crawled back to his feet. “I will iron clothes right away. Please forgive me, Master Damon.” Damon smiled, he liked to see William cower at his feet. It made him feel powerful. “Good” he spat as he walked away. Damon squeezed his knuckles as he remained on the floor. He was humiliated daily but there was nothing he could do about it. Not far off, Damon’s sister Sophia and her friend Jade giggled at William’s expense. “How did you people find such an obedient dog?” Jade mocked him. “He has to be obedient. If not, he knows he’ll be dealt with like the dog he is. He would never dare go against my brother.” Sophia replied. Still clenching his fists, William struggled to stand up and went straight to ironing Damon’s clothes. He had barely started ironing the clothes when his mother-in law showed up. “What are you doing here? Where is my lunch?” Madam Fiona barked angrily. Damon bowed his head. “I’m sorry Madam Fiona. I had to quickly iron Master Damon’s clothes. I will prepare it soon.” Fiona picked up the iron and pressed it on William’s hand. The hotness of the iron caused him to scream in pain. “So you want me to remain hungry?” she spat angrily. William held his hand in pain holding back tears. The iron didn’t completely burn his skin but it still did a lot of damage. “I-I’ll get to it right away Madam Fiona.” he managed to let out some words. This was William’s life ever since he had gotten married to the daughter of the Grey family, Scarlett. Apparently, Richard Grey, Scarlett’s grandfather knew William’s grandfather when he was alive. He wanted Scarlett to get married to him so their marriage was arranged. Although he didn’t know the relationship Richard Grey had with his grandfather, he fell in love with Scarlett the moment he laid his eyes on her. Scarlett on the other hand wasn’t really in support of the marriage, but she didn’t want to go against her grandfather’s wishes so she agreed. She knew she was in line to inherit the Grey empire and didn’t want to do anything that would ruin her chances. Since getting married into the Grey family, William was treated even less than a servant. Although the Grey family had servants that worked for them, they chose to make William do menial jobs in the house. With his injured hand, William struggled to iron the rest of Damon’s clothes before heading to the kitchen to prepare Madame Fiona’s lunch. After he was done preparing it, he brought it to Madam Fiona who sat comfortably in the living room. He went on his knees and bowed his head as he served her. She had instructed him that he must always kneel whenever he wanted to serve her food and he had to remain on his knees until she had finished eating. As Fiona ate her food, she suddenly squeezed her face and spit the food on William’s face. “What is this pig food you served me? Why are you so useless?” Fiona had seen a new recipe online and had asked William to make it. He followed the recipe but she didn’t like it and decided he was to blame. “I’m sorry ma’am, I just followed the recipe you gave me.” William tried to explain himself. Fiona’s face twisted with anger. “That’s a lie! If you had followed the recipe, it wouldn’t have tasted like this.” Fiona had never tried that dish before so she actually had no idea what it tasted like. William had made it perfectly, but it didn’t taste how she imagined it and decided to take it out on him. She picked up the plate and dumped it over William’s head. The food flowed down his head and onto his clothes. Some of the food dripped down onto the rug. “You’ve stained my rug, you pig! Clean it now!” Fiona shouted angrily. William was about to get up to get a rag to clean it up when Fiona thundered. “Where do you think you’re going? Lick it up!” William’s eyes widened. “What?” “You heard me you pig! I said lick it up!” Fiona stepped on his head pushing it close to the ground. “Yes Madam Fiona.” William brought out his tongue and licked the food off the floor. “Lick it properly!” she said pressing her food harder on his head. When he was done licking the food off the rug, he felt a rush of shame and humiliation. Fiona smiled with satisfaction. “That’s a good dog. Now get out of my sight!” William took the food away and went to get himself cleaned up. “William!” Sophia shouted his name. He couldn’t even get a break in this house. What could she want this time? He quickly rushed down. Sophia Grey was one of the worst members of the Grey family. She always looked for every opportunity to make William’s life difficult. He definitely didn’t want to offend her. He quickly arrived where Sophia and her friend Jade were seated. “Yes. Miss Sophia. What can I do for you?” “Our feet are tired. We need to rest them on something.” “Do I get you a stool Miss Sophia?” William offered. However, Sophia had something else in mind. “Get on your knees you dog! You’ll be our stool.” William quickly went down on all fours. Sophia and Jade both placed their feet on his back and continued to chat. The weight of their legs hurt his back, but he dared not complain. Just then, Scarlett ran into the living room. There was a frightened look on her face. The next words out of her mouth left everyone in the room in shock.Expand

THE RISE OF THE INCREDIBLE ASHER KNIGHT Chapter 63
Fiona stood outside the entrance of La Maison de Lumiere, one of the city's most exclusive restaurants. The last thing she had been expecting was a letter from Asher Knight asking her to dinner, especially with the recent events regarding Sophia. She wore a dress that hugged her figure without trying to hard. The valet opens the glass doors for her and she stepped in to find the restaurant completely empty. No clinking of glasses or murmuring couples. Just the sound of soft jazz by the live band. A hostess greeted her with a smile. “Right this way, Mrs. Grey.” As she walked through the exquisite restaurant, she couldn't help but wonder why it was empty. This was a restaurant people waited months to make a reservation. Had he bought out the entire place? For her? She spotted him near the back wearing an elegantly tailored suit, handsome as ever. William was still using the same face he had used when he met Fiona previously as well as Sophia. He stood up to greer her

Sophia blinked and read it again. She frowned in confusion. Asher Knight was right in front of her and ready to reveal himself so why would his team release a statement like this? By this time, a lot of people had also read the statement and wondered who Sophia was dancing with at the Gala. She turned sharply to the masked man. Her voice was trembling. “Why would you say you don't have anything to do with me?” “What do you mean?” he asked sounding unsure of what she meant. Sophia stepped back. “Take off the mask.” Still, no reply. “I said take off the damn mask!” she snapped. He hesitated, then slowly peeled it off. And the room spun. It wasn’t Asher Knight. It wasn’t anyone she recognized. He had kind eyes. Brown hair. Handsome in an ordinary way, But not Asher Knight. He smiled nervously. “I… I’m sorry if you expected someone else. My name’s Adam. Adam Kane. I’ve been sending you the gifts. I just didn’t know how to approach you without… well, all of this.” Ther

THE RISE OF THE INCREDIBLE ASHER KNIGHT Chapter 59
Soft music played in the background at Zenora Couture. Fiona slowly wandered through the racks, her fingers grazing over silk blouses. She paused near a deep burgundy one and was admiring it when she heard a deep smooth voice behind her. “You have excellent taste.” the voice said. Fiona turned, a bit startled. The man wore a sleek turtleneck under a well tailored suit. He was tall, had a clean shave and well defined features. He stepped closer and gave a polite smile. “That color suits you, it matches your beauty.” Fiona let out a soft laugh. “I haven't heard a line like that in years.” “Then some men clearly need to sharpen their instincts.” Fiona chuckled curious to know who this stranger was. “ Who are you?” “He extended a hand with a slight bow of his head. “Asher. Asher Knight.” Her brows rose. “Asher Knight?” He nodded, giving a soft smile. Fiona tucked the scarf over her arm, trying to hide her surprise. They continued checking things together, or rather he was li
