Arranged Marriage: To Hear Your Voice

    Francisco was looking around the cold cell. This is a real torture. He remembered how they beat him up. Even his own daughter was watching. He laughed out loud. He was sure now that Anastasia is alive. He laughed again and again as he looked at where throne like chairs are. He will see her there. He can't wait for them. 

    Someone gets in and he thought that it was Anastasia. But to his disappointment it was Calvin Ivanov. 

"Expecting someone, Francisco?" Calvin smirks. "Well, you can see her—for the last days of your life." 

"Where is she, Ivanov?" Francisco gritted. 

"Why would I tell you?" Calvin smirks. "Oh." He snapped like he forgot something. "I think she's in a romantic rainy night now. Let's not elaborate what else happened." 

    Francisco suddenly get paled and then he looked down. Is she already with Ferdinand? No! He can't accept that. He must make a way to escape. However, he looked at Glenn on the other side that's trying to break the unbreakable glass. Then to Janine. Everyone here are useless. Then he looked at Sylvia who just stay by the corner with eyes full of regrets. 

"This is all your fault!" Janine shouted at Francisco that is just beside his own cell. "You bring me up with Anastasia and this all happen!" 

"You failed me, you whore. You can't even make Ferdinand fall in love with you." 

"How can I? When every time he moaned and babbled every time calling Anastasia name? The two of you need to get over her because she's dead. I killed her and burned her. What else do you want to know? Do you expect her to appear in front of us?" 

    Calvin laugh out loud while enjoying the show. Francisco's veins are showing as he clenches his fist and grit his teeth in front of her. He started punching the wall in front of Janine. Calvin was enjoying the show and he made sure that Anastasia would see this. 

"You whore! You will always be a whore! And you will never be better than any woman… you can't even get on Anastasia's level." He smirked at her with gritted teeth. "If only I knew that you would do that to Ana, I regretted taking you. I fed you, gave you a luxurious  life and this is what you did? You will pay for it you whore!" 

    Janine scoff. 

"You aren't just the one who tasted her. Lots of men did…" She smirked deviously. "She was moaning and crying for more… she enjoyed it more than what you did to her." 

    Francisco scream out loud and start punching the glass partition in front of Janine. Calvin was laughing that almost hurt his stomach. This is fun to watch. Their torture haven't started yet, but now this is an appetizer for their main course.

    Mark visited the Elite Red Room and drink a little and the girls thought that he was up for rent. They rubbed on him and a big fat lady almost kissed him. If it weren't for the bouncers, he would get raped there in the guest area. 

    He rushed out and drove to the EPUA hospital to pick his fiancée. He exhales and then get out of the car. He went to Catriona's room. She's done from everything. Checking her and then her vitals. She stepped out from the room and look up at him. 

"Hey, darling." He bent down to kiss her. She wasn't that responsive at all. She looked at him and kept quiet. Mark was puzzled. So he waited for her to dress up and then he took her hand as they went to the parking lot. 

"You smell of alcohol. I'm going to drive." 

    He let her. Then he looked at her and then put a hand over her thigh. She jolted and hit the break so hard that they pushed forward. He blocked it and then exhales. 

"Don't touch me." She said with gritted teeth. She shudder a little and exhales. 

    Of course, she was sensitive but after they made love multiple times—she wasn't that sensitive of his touch anymore. Wait? What's happening? 

"Is there a problem?" 

"I don't like the smell of different perfume, cigarette and alcohol on you." 

    He checked himself and found lipstick marks on his shirt and neck. He exhales and remove his shirt. 

"I was in the Elite Red Room. Girls thought that I was up for rent. They almost raped me." She started the car and ignore what he said. It was like she's affected. He took a wet tissue from the compartment and wipe off the lipstick marks. 

    Allison gripped her hand on the steering wheel as she glanced at him. She bit her lip and stopped the car by the corner. She removed her seat belt, took the wet tissue and start wiping off him. She even straddle on him and quickly adjust the seat to recline. 

"Allison." He muttered. Allison was fierce as she unbuckled his pants and pull his hard manhood. She made a way for herself and ride on him. Mark was also in euphoria and couldn't help but to kiss her. Ripped her shirt, remove her bra and suck on her nipples. 

    The car is shaking, and they didn't care at all but to make love to each other. It took more than thirty minutes to please each other. She collapsed on his chest, they are breathing heavily. Mark caress her hair and kisses her forehead. 

"Alli, were you jealous a while ago?" 

"Can't I get jealous?" She asked and play on his chest and let him stay inside her. She just wished to get pregnant too soon. So, she'll be satisfied even though he might leave her and marry another one. She wouldn't be alone. Like before. Her mother left her and her father treated her like a computer, a robot. She might be too rational. But this is the only way for her not to suffer for years. 

"Let's go home." He reach his jacket and put it on her. He caress her face and kiss her lips. "We can make babies when we get home." 

    She nodded and fixed herself. She reached the wet tissue and wipe herself. She was still quiet as she drove to the penthouse. He now understands why she acted that way. She probably plan on getting pregnant and letting him go. Once they got home, he prepare their little dinner. She just got out of the shower and he followed. He quickly rubbed everything just to get off the scents and then he eat with her. 

"Alli, what's the matter?" He asked. "Do you still plan on just getting pregnant and not letting me marry you?" 

"Yes." She answered. He reached her hand.

"Allison, we are engaged. I love you—I know that you are anxious. But I'll never leave you." 

"Mark, I am not the only woman in this world and there will be a time that you'll find someone much better than me. This is the only way—so none of us can get hurt." 

"But I love you. And it hurts me that you can't accept my love for you. What else should I do then?" He asked. She remain silent. "Is it hard to accept, Allison?" Mark exhales and look away. He was exasperated. Okay, he understands that she has doubts. He understands that she has trust issues. 

    He stood and pick her up. He tossed her to bed and pull off his boxers. Allison sat there and look at him. He didn't want to force himself when she isn't ready. So he caress her hair lovingly. 

"Allison, I love you. We aren't going to break up. We aren't going to separate. And every day—I will make sure to give you a reason to accept my love." 

    That night, Mark did everything to make love to her and satisfy her. He didn't sleep at all. He checked on his properties and check the update on the old house that he bought. He called people that would help him renovate it. He wanted to give her a home. He wanted her to stay with him and grow old with him. He doesn't care if she's autistic. He is in love with her. 

"What are you doing?" She sat up and rubbed her eyes. "It's—" she look at the watch. "Two in the morning." 

"Darling, I have a surprise for you, and you can't know about it. Go back to sleep, or do you want me?" He grinned and kiss her lips. She touches his face—newly shaved and kisses his cheeks. "I am more handsome right?" 

"Yes." This is what he likes about her. She's honest and straightforward. 

"I've got a beautiful body, right?" 

"Yes." She caressed his massive chest. 

"I'm going to make love to you now. So we can have little angels… when do you plan to fix our wedding? Or do you want me to settle it?" 

"Are you sure about marrying me?" She asked. He smiled slowly. 

"I am so sure now that I could make love to you every day." 

    He reached her down there and when she's ready, he thrust on her. 

    She fell asleep quickly after their hot love making. He got back to designing when he suddenly received a message from Shadow. 

Good Morning Early Bird,

Need your ASAP report in EPUA. Just so you know, that little Bratt of Francisco and Janine had brought an army of gangsters. 

Truly yours,

Shadow

"Shit." He muttered.
