Arranged Marriage: To Hear Your Voice

Sabrina was standing on the balcony as her husband fetch her a wine. She took it and gracefully sipped it. He kissed her naked shoulder and traces the see-through fire-like gown on her beautiful curve.

"You look so beautiful my wife. As always…" She hums and sipped on her wine. "How do you want me to please you tonight? I owe you something big." He murmur on her ear seductively. She gracefully turn to him and traces light kisses with breathing on his neck.

They end up peeling each other's clothes until they are making love on their King bed. But just when they were in the middle, they were interrupted from the multiple rings from her phone. She recognized the ringtone. It was from Ethan, Enzo and EPUA. They had to finish their love making before she answered it.

"Sis, Ethan's wife got kidnapped by syndicate that sells eggs. I couldn't find a proof that could be linking to Janine's plan. But I'll find it sooner or later. We are with Catastrophe and Brandy I hope you don't mind." Enzo said a little panic. "Anyway, you don't have to rush home."

"Give me the details." She said and Gabriel was too surprised. It must be serious and she hang up. She went to the walk in closet and put some clothes on.

"Wifey," he called her out. He went to the closet and put something on. "What's going on?"

"Aria was kidnapped by a syndicate that sell eggs. They have leads and tracks but we are still searching for the instigator."

"What?" He suddenly pull out his phone to order his men.

"There's no need." She took away his phone. She was really talking. Really, really talking. She must be so furious. Her aura was scary as hell. "They want to play? I can play along." She mutters, sat down and get quite. She's scary. But he wouldn't marry her if she wasn't like that. He admire her sides. From her adorableness into this scary one.

"Then I'll join my wife." He took her hand. "I won't let those who bully you get away so easily. Now give me details." She didn't and wrote on her tablet.

"Police can handle it."

"They can't handle it in a short moment." She shook her head and he still contact his people.

He had his sights that she's the legendary boss of the secret organization. But never did he know that she was the legendary boss of the Elite bar.

They are both sleepless and she doesn't want to sleep so he patiently stay by her side and do few of his paper work while waiting for updates.

Aria woke up in a soft mattress. The smell was dry and rusty. She look around to find girls crumble on each sides with some on the mattress lying almost lifeless. She shudder and hugged herself. Why? Why again? She's been in almost the same scene. Everything come backs to her.

Few men came and some of them injected the poor girls who are crying and begging. She stay quiet on the corner but they still noticed her.

"This one was special." The fat bellied man said. "Boss want us to get rid of her. But of course after we had sell her eggs and put her in a good use."

She shudder more. Only one face flashes on her eyes. Janine. Janine was the one behind this. Back then, she remember how she carefully checked her from head to toe and even make someone check if she's still a virgin, then post it online.

She manage to leave because of a girl that she help back then. Then it all came to her. The girl was familiar and—she just remembered. That in the same room with her. That girl was quiet like contemplating something and she resemble nobody else but Sabrina.

God, it was Sabrina. She heard back then that they used her mother and raped her. Janine was so pleased as she even treated them well for a night. Then, she heard again how they are going to kill Sabrina's mother. In an abandoned villa, she followed them as she escaped from the warehouse. She sneak into the van and found out the villa is on fire but she managed to call someone for help.

That someone also help her to start a new life. A man in white hair. She would always remember the man. But now, she wanted to live. She wanted to live for Ethan. He must be so scared now. She started crying as she hold her necklace where her wedding ring is.

"Ethan…" She hugged herself as she felt so scared together with the girls. Being their hostage, She shouldn't get scared, so she remained cool &quiet. She exhales and pray quietly for Ethan to take her.

After an hour, a man came and drag everyone.

"The Police might be on their way. Let's go to the secured warehouse!"

She open her mouth gaping. Secured warehouse. She has heard this before. It was where they sold girls. To hide them, it was probably the best choice. She still don't know what will happen yet. She went along with the girls and help them. One of the man was surprised on her calmness.

"Go!" They pushed them into the van. They are at least 12 girls, younger than her.

The journey there was a long drive. It was dark and underground. All of them were blindfolded and she listen carefully and feel the place. Then she heard the music, soft and sexy as they passes by the screaming girls and moaning males. Foreign voices makes her shudder but she calmed herself. She have to remain strong for him. But would he still take her after learning about her past?

She suddenly felt anxious thinking about it. She was a dirty woman. Once sold online since she was a kid. She danced and showed her naked body to the foreigners, and in exchange she had all material things and love from her mother. But now that she realizes that everything was wrong.

♥♥♥

Taking the bait, as expected. They will move into a more secured place. So Ethan went home (Alvarez Mansion) still on his crumpled clothes. He hadn't bath for two days or even eat. He sleeps too little and keeps thinking of his wife.

"Oh, dear." It was time for Janine to take action, she helped him to his room and called maids to prepare his bath and his food.

He did bath for so long and then changed into a pair of cozy clothes. Without words, he did eat a little but then stops when he thought of her. What are they feeding her?

"You okay?" Janine asked in a motherly voice. He didn't say a single thing. She sigh. "You can't stay like that. I can recommend you girls…"

"Shut up." He said in a low voice. He push aside the plate and went back to his room.

After three hours of sleeping and missing her. He went downstairs dressed up, ready to go and watch Catastrophe's mission in the Headquarter but he was surprise to see one of his exes. The known gold digger sitting gracefully on the sofa and chatting with his step-mother. He walk passed them still enduring his anger.

"Son, Oliva just arrived from Europe. Don't you want to greet her?"

"Ethan." Oliva stood. Olivia once dump him because he decline the position of being a CEO but now, she came back when he was well and powerful. "I heard what happened to your girlfriend."

"None of your business." He said coldly.

"Ethan, you have to gather yourself and don't just sulk for that useless woman." Janine said aloud that even Ferdinand who was also leaving to work was surprised.

"I dare you to say it again." Ethan's cold eyes could kill Janine but Janine was a bitch without a spine—wait—well she was shameless.

"I know that woman. She is used on selling herself. Now I know what kind of gold digger she is." She gave the files to Ethan. "Here I investigated her."

Ethan flip through the file and saw nude photos from the camera and there is even a disk. He calmly called the butler. Janine thought that she would win. Ethan gave it to the butler and tell him to burn it. If anyone would know the rage that's fighting inside him, that would be his siblings.

He strode to Janine and grabbed her neck, pulling it closer to him with a deadly glare. Like a real psychopath.

"I dare you to threaten me like that again, Janine. You can do shameless things to me, but not to my wife." His voice cold and deadly send shivers to Janine and even Olivia who was watching. Ferdinand was too surprised to see his son's reaction. "How could you collect those things so easily, huh?" He sneer. "Do you really think you could threaten me like that? You even brought someone like you here in the mansion. Do you know why I am keeping quiet and let you lavish our wealth and my mother's properties?"

"L-let go…" she started chocking from Ethan's left hand.

"Be careful Janine… Be careful…" he warns and pushes her until she plop down on the floor.

"Mom!" Marga witness everything and run to her mother. The ideal brother she once adore has become a demon.

Sabrina who just arrived from her honeymoon comfortably sat down on the couch and ring the maid like nothing happened. She sneer and watch Janine sitting on the floor shaking in anger.
