The reception was held in a fairytale like garden that Gabriel owns. The resort has just open in the market and he named it Sabrina because of his undying love for her. Everything was high cla.s.s like they are already living in the fairytale. The servings and utensils were very high cla.s.s. Like they were in a real wedding of a King and the Queen.Everywhere they go there would be two soldiers following them from behind. Ethan suddenly murmur to Aria"s ear.
"Do you want a wedding like this?" She face him.
"I am satisfied with everything we held in Hawaii. As long as I am marrying you." She said. But suddenly she shudder and look at the direction where Janine has been staring at her. Ethan noticed it so he immediately covers her from his step-mother.
"Hey," He rubbed her arms. "You don"t have to be afraid of her. I am here, you are protected and I promise you that you"ll be fine."
"I trust you." He kisses her forehead and glare at Janine who looks at him like a strict mother.
Catriona was enjoying the food. She need a lot of carbs, she need a lot of energy for tonight. She was so sure that he"ll wear her out because of the gown that she"s wearing. Enzo slice her the steak and eat a lot as well to burn tonight. But while Catriona was eating, she felt a shudder in her spine. It was a sign of something that isn"t right.
She looked at her boss who is lovingly pampered by now—her husband. Then to Tequila who disguise as one of the security. The others disguise as well to keep a low profile. Then her eyes darted on Aria who was protected by Ethan from Janine"s stare. She tilted her head and rubbed her chin.
Janine is planning something. What could it be? She looked at Enzo who is also busy on eating.
"Give me details about Aria." She said it straight forward. Enzo looked at her. "You can have me all night until breaking dawn." He chuckled and pull out his phone.
"Darling, you don"t have to ask favor just to exchange it with s.e.x. I could have s.e.x with you anytime I want. You know that I"ll agree with your favors as long as it didn"t stepped out the boundary." He send it to her.
"The data that I send to you will expired in an hour. But since you said that I can have you all night, it means there"s no backing out."
She didn"t say anything as she opens her phone and scanned the details of Aria"s past. Her jaw almost dropped. They actually had cross path back then. Just like her, her virginity was sold online but she manage to escape that life.
"Ethan actually elope with her in Hawaii." He said as he slice a steak and pointed it to her. She took it and chew carefully as she scroll on her phone. "No one knows that they are married except for us."
"Hmm." She only hums. If Aria was a victim of human trafficking through internet—at the young age, she must have received a great trauma. Janine was there as she pick up girls that are going to choose to dance for their VIP and sell their virginity. It cost millions for the bidding.
The bride and groom dance gracefully and lovingly talk with each other with their eyes. Enzo sighed with a little envy, and had to glance at Ethan and Aria as well. Love is in the air and does it means that the woman for him is close as well? Dumb him, of course it was too close and Catriona is sitting in front of him. She"s busy tapping on her phone and eating at the same time.
"Cat,"
"What?" she asked coldly.
"Let"s dance." She stopped tapping her phone and raise her eyes to him. She hated dancing. "I"m good at ballroom." He grin. Then she shook the idea of the dirty dancing that she learn when she was surviving. He reach the table napkin and wipe her lips. Then he stood and reach her hand. She put her phone in her purse and stand up.
He reach both of her hands and put it on his shoulders, gently. He hold her small waist, tilt his head and kisses each of her hand on his shoulders. She was suddenly mesmerize with that gentle gesture. The music starts and he mutter on her ears to gracefully shake her bootie and she did. Even without his instructions, she has knowledge in ballroom, and dancing was a talent she disgust. But ballroom with him? It doesn"t feel disgusting at all.
"Ballroom isn"t that bad at all." He murmurs in her ear as they waltz gracefully.
"You know that I hate dancing."
"But you are good at it. You don"t have to hate it at all."
She look away yet her body still dance with him. Until the music was finished and was changed into a romantic song. She was about to leave but he grabbed her waist tightly and make her lean on his chest.
"I want romance." He said.
"I can"t give that to you."
"I don"t like friends with benefits relations.h.i.+p. Even though we aren"t making love, I will willingly give you resources for information. I will obey you and I will always bath you."
Those shouldn"t sound romantic but it did. Or maybe it was just her who hated romance. Enzo was undeniably a hopeless romantic person. He stealthily kisses her top head and finally bring her back to their table.
Sabrina was ready to throw her bouquet and every maiden gathered except for Aria who was locked into Ethan"s arms. As for Catriona, she doesn"t really want to do anything with it. But Sabrina was playful at that moment and though she was from the back of the maidens, she throw the bouquet in the exact direction of Catriona.
Catriona"s reflexes was always good so she caught it and she frown. She looks at Sabrina who winks at her. Enzo was also surprised but smiled. His sister is really manipulative. Enzo bent down to Catriona to kiss her but she lifted the bouquet and his face was smashed with it.
"Don"t even think about it." She warns.
"Okay, sorry." He put the bouquet on the table. "Let"s go to our room." He stands up, pick her purse and the bouquet. She rolled her eyes.
"I have to at least wait for my stomach to fully digest the food." He swiftly pull her up and carried her like a sack in his arms. "Put me down!" She scowl and punch his back.
"Ow!" He winced.
"Put me down at this instant!"
He didn"t obey her and almost drop her. He reach the door to their room and put her down. She was flushed in anger and he only smirks at her. She reach her shoes and started throwing it at him. He caught the pair of shoes and he remove his coat.
"d.a.m.n, that was embarra.s.sing." She mutterred with flushed face. She reach the zipper of her dress but a hand holds it and zip it down. He kisses her naked shoulders and down to her back.
He drop down her dress and caress her bare breast. He was hugging her from the back and holding her pair of globes as he shove his face on her neck. She smells enticing and delicious.
"What do you fear, Catriona?"
She shudders a little because of the cold air from the air conditioner. But his arms and hands were warm and it soothes her.
"I fear nothing."
"Not even death?"
"I had been through worst and death is an easy way of escape."
He faced her, took her face into his hand and gently kisses her lips. She looks at him into his eyes, reach his s.h.i.+rt and started unb.u.t.toning it. He lovingly caress her curly hair while she"s unb.u.t.toning his s.h.i.+rt and then his pants.
"Tell me, Catriona… am I just a s.e.x-toy for you?" He asked her in a seductive yet lonely tone. She look up to him.
"Am I not your s.e.x toy?" She asked back. He caress her hair down to her jawline.
"You are precious." He kisses her lips. "You aren"t just a s.e.x toy. Or even a s.e.x-mate. You are my girlfriend, my girl and my woman… there"s no part of you that I don"t like? From head to toe, I adore you."
"Stop sweet talking me and let"s proceed on How about that?"
"You talk too bold." He remove his s.h.i.+rt first and stepped out from his pants. "What position do you prefer for our first round?" He asked as he sat down on the bed and reach a box of condom from the drawer.
"Why won"t we try every position that is available to see what"s best?" She grin at him.
"Not a bad idea." He grin back, pull her waist and kisses her naked middle chest. "You are officially mine so don"t flirt with anyone else." She only rolled her eyes and it was beautiful. He couldn"t help but to smile and admire it. "Since we have the whole night until sunrise, I don"t want to waste it."
He started with a foreplay until she was moaning aloud and demanding him to directly do it without foreplay yet she enjoy it.
"Enzo… Are you going to do it or not?" She scowl in frustration.
"Babe, there"s no rush." His fingers do crazy thing down there. "I"ll satisfy you until sunrise." His voice sounds husky and seductive.
