Arranged Marriage: To Hear Your Voice

Gabriel found her in bed watching cartoons. She look better now but her eyes are still red. He sat down beside her and scoop her face. He watch the video and he was more in rage than she was. She must've gotten hurt from their words. But all of it aren't true. Sabrina pull him and hug him.

"You aren't leaving me, right?"

"Never." He pats her head. Sabrina—the old Sabrina he knows say the same but different actions. She would be fierce and brave. Now this little Sabrina with him is vulnerable and fragile. "They are blacklisted from here. Are you happy now?" she shook her head. He patted it. "What do you want to do to them?"

"I don't care about them." She lay down. "Come snuggle with me. I care about you more than any bitches." She said with a yawn. He removed his clothes and snuggle with her kissing her lips. He smell her and hug her just to calm himself. He will surely put them down.

"I saw horses here."

"Hmm. You can't ride a horse, darling."

"When I am not pregnant, then I can ride horses and make love to you all day long." She kiss his forehead. "Then, we can go to Maldives…"

"Hmm. Do you want to go there? We missed your birthday."

"Let's go there and leave our baby?" She pouted. She caress her stomach. "Maybe if our first born is already one."

"We can go there anytime, love."

"It's quite dangerous in Maldives if we bring our baby…" She said. "Gabby, please tell me everything." She hold his hand and she look at him with those puppy eyes. He look away. He can't resist her.

He caress her shoulder as he said everything. She listen to him and hold unto him. He knows that it was painful for her. He was getting a little obsessed with telling her that she found her mom alive but those memories would trigger.

He kiss her forehead with sigh. How is he going to keep her away from pain and danger?

Eros was lifting some weights while he's sitting. He has to at least make his body strong for the nearest battle. He doesn't know what his enemy had plan behind but he was ready for everything. Eros stand and walk in the treadmill to exercise his feet. He is getting better with walking and soon—he will snatch Catriona away from Enzo.

Enzo is easy to kill. He didn't know combat. So he has to be fit for Catriona and make her see that he's so much better than Enzo. He reach the towel and wipe off the sweats from his body. He didn't use his crane because now, he could walk normally but the doctor told him not to overdo it.

"Sir, here are the photos that we capture." Eros took the tablet and swipe it as he sees Catriona with Enzo flirting in the garden with dogs and three little rascals on the stroller.

He frowns when Enzo kisses Catriona's lips. She was laughing, looking younger and free in the photos. He will do everything just to have her. He zooms Catriona's face. Her eyes are so beautiful. Her lips are like cross bow. There's nothing compare to her. His obsession grows when she smiles.

He frowns when her face only shine in front of Enzo. Soon enough everything will be gone and he will do everything to have her back.

"Oh, Catriona… why do you have to [email protected] someone who isn't as good as me?"

Meanwhile, in the Alvarez mansion, Enzo just finish showering and he smiles seeing Catriona holding one of his son in her arms coaxing him to sleep. He's already asleep so he slowly approach them and kiss her forehead. He took the baby and put him back on the crib.

Catriona walk herself back to the bed, and crawl there as she search for the pillow. If Catriona only knows that it turns him on, she would probably continue seducing him. Enzo exhales and toss his towel away. He crawl to bed and reach her hips. She almost squeal and wake up the babies. Enzo shush her and kiss her cheeks.

"Baby—let's make love." She hold him to stop. 𝐟𝘳𝑒𝗲𝘸e𝒃𝘯𝒐𝐯e𝚕.c𝒐𝒎

"Buy me contraceptive pills first." She said and pushes him away. He giggle and she shush him. "I don't trust you with this." She mutter. "I'll just talk to Sam to give me one."

Enzo grins. Catriona knows well that he wouldn't use any protection. But then he thought about it. Both of them hasn't gotten anytime to make love. They didn't even have their first honeymoon after they got married because she just gave birth. Now that they can—they must use contraceptive again.

"We can't have another batch of babies." He murmurs in her ear. "It will make me wait for long to make love to you."

Catriona lay and reach him whatever she got hold into with and pull him into her arms. Enzo pull her into his arms and kiss her forehead. His kiss went down to her chin, down to her neck. She arc her back and Enzo help her remove her silk negligee.

"Don't worry, I won't impregnate you again." He murmur. She open her eyes and though she can't see him, he knows that she had probably imagine his face and his body. His poor wife… if it wasn't for that psycho she would have her sight and could see him and their little angels.

"Then make love to me." She murmur.

"But we have to be quiet." He murmur back. Enzo look down into her and his heart ache whenever he realize that she can't see. He left her in the bed and she was quiet. He reach the robe and put it on. He made sure that the doors in the balcony are secured. He check the nanny cam focused on the crib.

"Enzo?" She calls. After checking everything, he went back to bed and cover her with the silk robe. He then open the door and call the dogs. They guard the crib as he took her to the other room. Catriona wrapped her arms around his neck and kiss him. It was supposed to be on his lips but it landed on his cheeks.

"We will have your sight back. Okay?" He promised her. She nods and wrapped her arms around him tightly.

Enzo put her gently on bed and reach the drawer as he pull out a box of durex. He bends down and kiss her face. Catriona reach his face and touch it memorizing it with her sense of touch.

"Enzo, promise me one thing please."

"Yes, Cat?"

"Protect our babies, okay?" Enzo know clearly what Catriona meant with protect. If she is gone—he has to stand as a mother and a father but his heart can't take it. Catriona was his half… how can he stand being alone without her? Enzo bit his lip and stop his tears.

"I will protect our babies. I will protect you. Your mission is my mission. We are a team Catriona. And Sabrina wouldn't call me if she doesn't trust me with you. That day—I didn't even notice that she might be in danger. Sabrina—would do the same thing all over again for her loved ones even if it cost her life. I would do the same because I love you. That's how Alvarez are."

Catriona smile with tears.

"I love you, Enzo Alvarez."

"And I love you more, Catriona Alvarez."
