Arranged Marriage: To Hear Your Voice

She was too lazy to get up from the bed. She missed a lot of scenes this morning. She watched from Enzo's phone what happened in the kitchen and she feels an extreme animosity toward Janine. Then she listen as Janine whines on the phone to her Almighty Boss.

She scoff at the Almighty Boss that they gave to him. The name was friggin' hilarious. Dark Lord was Sabrina's pen name and everyone thought that she was a male. It was mysterious as well and it was much better than the Almighty Boss who wasn't that mighty as Sabrina.

"Enjoying the show?" Enzo asked as he put the tray on top of the bed near her. She's wrapped in a silk blanket but still shows those glorious breasts.

"I am." She pick a slice of kiwi. While he watch her enjoy the show and even stare at her naked top.

He crawl on the other side of the bed and rain lightly kisses on her beautiful chest. She look at him seductively but she wasn't aware that she always look seductive to him. This woman's simple gesture was a big turn on for him. He pull the covers and shove his face between her legs.

She giggles sexily and look down at him.

"Was that your appetizer?" she asked and sigh in delight from the pleasure that he's giving.

"Our appetizer." He mutter and she pushes his head back down there.

Catriona was standing under the shower while scrubbing herself when Enzo appears at her back and reach the scrubber. He scrub her back carefully and turn off the shower. He kisses her ear and keeps scrubbing.

"Let's live together." He said.

"Don't be stupid." He pull her and make her lean on him as he reach her down there, to rub her.

"Stupid huh?" He teased as she bit her lip and hold herself not to squirm. She pressed her palms on the wall in front of her, getting swayed by pleasure. He was just good at everything. She was suddenly panting. "Are you going to say such things again?" He tease seductively while pleasuring her down there.

While they were busy in the bathroom, he didn't notice that Sabrina was knocking on the door and impatiently waiting for them to finish. She knocks again but heard their moaning from the outside and shudders a little. She exhales and shook her head as she goes back to her room.

"Gooddamnit!" she murmur as she enter her room where her husband is removing his shirt wet from the gym. She drop her body on the bed lazily. He glance at her.

"You okay?"

"Hmm."

"What happened?" he bent down and kisses her lips then caresses her hair. She shook her head. "I'll take a shower. Wanna join?" She wave her hands off. "Okay."

She rethink what happened in the kitchen a while ago. Aria need a psychiatrist for her trauma. She can see it affects her so much. She's a strong woman with a shattered past. She went to the living room and find Ethan still comforting Aria who was in daze. She wanted to punch Janine for triggering it. Maybe it will be best if they will meet again.

She had an itchy feeling of finishing Janine with her bare hands. But she has to be patient and torture her slowly such that she would wish she was never born. Ethan already pack up few of their things while the valet is preparing the car that he's going to take.

"Don't let her get away." Ethan said. Sabrina nodded. He stood and pull Aria who look so broken.

She watch as the couple left the Alvarez Mansion.

♥♥♥

Ethan drove the car away from the mansion. She was staring at nowhere as he intertwine her cold hand with his warm one. They will become a family soon and how could this happen? It pains him seeing her like that. It pains him more seeing how she responds to Janine's revelation. Instead of driving directly to their condo, he drove to their new house. It wasn't a big house but it was wide with a lawn and a pool.

He open the door beside her and bent down a little. He caress her hair and her tearing eyes.

"Do you still want me?" she suddenly asked in hoarse voice.

"I will always want you."

"But you already know… I was disgusting." She hugged herself shuddering from the past.

"You were a victim." She look straight into his eyes. It looks so broken that it also broke his heart. "Aria, no matter what past you are my wife and I married you because I love you and I only want you, no one else."

"You don't understand."

"Which part is it?" He asked patiently. "Tell me, Aria. Are my words not enough? Baby, nothing else matters but you. I could give away what I have for you. We are going to be parents soon and you need to be stronger than this. You are always a strong woman—but please stay with me." He hold both of her cold hands and kisses each of it to give it warmth.

"Ethan, why me?"

"Do I have to answer that?" He press her left hand to his chest where his heart is located. "Does this answer your question?" She keeps crying. "Let's go inside." He reach her face and wipe her tears. "Stop crying, it pains me seeing you like this."

He carried her like a baby as he enter the house. He bought the house weeks ago because he knew that she will love it. She falls asleep as soon as he put her down on their King bed. He then open his laptop and settled on the balcony. He wears his earpiece as they discuss their next plan. Since they attack the safest place for the big gang—it will be a hard battle between the police and the gang.

"What's the next step?" He asked. Sabrina type on her keyboard as her word pop up to their screen.

"Let them get ready for an attack. They will surely take a bait and we'll play along."

"I can't let them off so easily. They hurt my wife and that bitch hurt her more." He said with a bitter smile.

"The hearing will be tomorrow. We will do better." Enzo said with a sinister smile.

They plan a little and their unspoken plan was already on their mind. No words could compare to what Ethan felt. First, Janine took their father and probably killed their mother. Now she's trying to hurt the love of his life. The one he pampered most.

He sat down beside her as he carefully caresses her beautiful face. He will let no one hurt her again. If he didn't protect his mother and his sister well, now that he is married to her, he will make sure she's secured and protected.

The hardest thing that happened to their family was when their mother and the princess of the family was kidnapped. Both he and Enzo was still young and don't know what to do. But both of them didn't stop researching on where to find both of them until they asked their grandfather's old friend for help.

That day their mother died and at the same time, he met his soul mate in tears asking for help. She was a petite beautiful girl wearing a baggy jacket—terrified eyes but still strong to ask for help. She escaped from hell and try to save their princess.

Then she saw them and her eyes dilated a little when she realize something.

"You—you are Sabrina's family?"

"Where is she? Where are they?" Leandro asked and she pointed the villa that is on fire.

Though they are in a critical time, Ethan will forever remember that beautiful face. Then, he learnt from Leandro that she was a victim of human trafficking and had escaped.
