436 A Need To Work Hard
Was Marcel proposing to her?
Although there was no ring on her finger and Clara’s case was still unsolved, she knew Marcel meant the words he spoke. Words are powerful, equivalent to promises, and are used strictly because the people here don’t throw them around easily if they don’t intend to keep them. However, what would have seemed romantic was shattered the moment she heard Marcel mention ten kids.
She gulped, “Did you just say ten kids?”
Marcel nodded seriously, “Yes, my love.” He took her knuckle and kissed it, befuddling her brain the more with the sensation, “I pretty much grew up as an only child before Chloe came around, hence I desire to have a large family.”
“But -” Arianna was about to protest when he interrupted her.
“Moreover, I have enough stamina to make enough children and the money to give them the life they want. What do you say to that, shouldn’t we give it a try?”
Give it a try her butt! Arianna flipped a table in her mind. What does he mean by giving birth to ten kids? Where would the kids come out from if not from her hole? Who told him that she was up for that kind of pain? If he wanted many kids that much, he was free to give birth to them himself! She was not up for that kind of suffering.
Hence, Arianna only smiled, “We would discuss that later,” She said dismissively.
And speaking about babies, they’ve been having unprotected sex for a while now, neither was she on the pill knowing she had no use for it – the past Arianna had no time for sex. Unless she wanted to begin her journey of birthing ten kids without warning, she would force Marcel to get her the pill tomorrow.
.....
But at the moment, Arianna prayed that any sperm inside her wouldn’t get fertilized. God, how could she have been careless to have sex without being under the pills? She was stupid! Stupid! Stupid!
As much as Arianna loved Marcel, a baby was not in the picture now. There were just so many complications to solve before they thought about starting a family. There was Clara and Elijah. And then Daniel, how could she have forgotten that. This can’t be easy. The thought of having Daniel as a father-in-law was traumatic enough. Sigh, of all families she could have gotten into.
“Also,” Marcel was not done with her, “You are banned from ever taking alcohol,”
“What?” She blinked, surprised.
“I thought you had other reasons for not taking alcohol, who knew that you can’t handle your alcohol well and would lose consciousness if you take much,” He reasoned.
“Oh,” Arianna said.
Marcel thought she fainted because she was unable to handle her alcohol? If only she knew the shock of seeing Elijah was too much and the alcohol in her system hadn’t helped her panic. Nonetheless, it was better he thought this way than knowing Elijah dared come into his base last night. He would only lock her in if he knew she was in danger of being snatched back by her ex-boyfriend.
Unfortunately, Arianna would go ballistic if he restricts her, at least she could walk around the base now with Luca by her side to keep an eye on her. So it was better this way. The next time, Elijah makes a move, she would warn him off. Their relationship or whatever they had is over. He should move on.
“No, problem,” Arianna answered him. She was not a fan of alcohol in the first place, hence she was not bothered by the arrangement.
Marcel was pleased by her response, for once she didn’t argue with him over his rules. She was his woman and it was his duty to keep her safe. If alcohol would put her in danger, he would get rid of that as well. Tomorrow, he will have the bar at the corner of the living room moved out of sight else she’s tempted to have a taste of the drinks there one day.
“Let’s sleep then,” Marcel cuddled her but she shook her head in refusal.
“I don’t feel like sleeping, let’s talk more instead,” Arianna wanted to know more about Marcel.
Yes, she knew about his dysfunctional family but needed more information on Marcel. she wanted to know his deepest desire and secrets no one else knew about him. She didn’t want to build the foundation of their relationship based on sex only. Arianna needed to know that inner man, the one others don’t see usually. The inner man that was beyond his cruel and dark exterior.
However, Marcel was not ready to open up to her on that emotional level, so he gave her an excuse instead,
“Sorry love, but it’s late already.”
Arianna was not going to say that she didn’t see that coming, the truth is she did. But she hoped somehow that she would be able to penetrate that hard armor, the defenses he put up against everybody. Although he lowered it for her, it was not enough. Marcel was still withdrawing some.
She was making a gamble by loving someone like Marcel but she wasn’t going to give up, there was no going back now. Arianna would make Marcel love her so much that he would let her in and she would heal those scars inside of his heart.
“However, if you’re not sleepy yet, I have a better idea of what we could do with our time,” Marcel said, his eyes gleaming and a smirk tugging at the corner of his lips.
Oh no.
“No, Marcel...”
She protested when Marcel slipped beneath the covers and spread her legs. Although the bed sheet covered him from view, it didn’t protect Arianna from feeling every single thing he was doing to her body as he kissed, nipped, sucked, and stroked her sex till she was thrashing wildly as the orgasm wrecked through her.
Arianna knew at that moment that there was a need to work hard. Since Marcel’s determined to kill her with sex, she must be determined to own his whole heart.
