“Yes! I was forced to marry him some days ago by my father”. Ariel raised her head and looked at him with her puppy eyes. Seeing the man did not speak, Ariel continued.
“Handsome, you won’t sleep with me because I’m married to the devil’s incarnation? Calm down, he will not do anything to you.
She suddenly stood up from his body, bent over, and kissed Rex’s lips. Rex wrapped one hand around her waist and let her sit on his lap so he could deepen the kiss. He waved to his bodyguards and Pius to excuse them for the night as he stood up from the wheelchair and carried her to the room. Once in the room, she grabbed his collar and then went to unbutton his shirt. Rex grabbed her hand “Stop”
“Stop, you also can not get it up like my husband? Hmm. you’re impotent, I’m so unlucky I can’t even have a complete man for once” He moved away from her body but Ariel grabbed him by his shirt. “Don’t leave. Please make me feel like a woman”
Rex lifted her chin and pulled her closer, “who do you want to sleep with? Rex Anderson or the handsome guy you just met?”
Ariel opened her eyes slightly and looked at him up close. “Of course, with Rex Anderson are you him because you look similar to him?”
“Ariel, are you sure you want to sleep with me? Do not blame me for not being gentle.”
Ariel was completely drunk that she didn’t hear the other part of the sentence as she giggled,” I’m no longer innocent. I have done it once”, saying that she unbuttoned his shirt and pulled it down his long and slender arm and reached her hands under his undershirt as she traced his chest.
Rex felt a wave of electricity that was no different from the other day. He hurriedly stopped her hands, “If you don’t stop. I will really take you again”
“Take me. I told you I have done that before, and I married a crippled man. Don’t go easy on me! I want all of you”
“Fine, Ariel Anderson, since you want to experience it again, I will do as you want!”
Rex pinned her directly under him but she passed out.
When Ariel woke up, her body was aching all over.
“Ahh, why does my body ache so badly? She thought.
She shifted slightly into a more comfortable posture. When turning around, her gaze landed on the back of a man on the bed, giving her a shock.
“Who are you?!”
The corners of the man’s mouth gently rose, looking at the scared kitty in front of him, and he couldn’t help but think of last night.
Last night, in her unconscious state, she trembled beneath him and her whimpers still echoed in his ears.
“Are you disappointed it was me?”
“Rex Anderson”
Ariel murmured his name.
Glancing around, Ariel realized her clothes were thrown on the ground. A bad feeling rose through her as she looked down at her own stark naked body. No, this can’t be! It’s impossible! Did the monster really touch her last night? Was he not crippled? How was he able to do this to her? Ariel was about to jump down from the bed and picked up her clothes from the ground. And the man turned around to face her.
“Mr. Rex Anderson, what did you do to me?” her voice suddenly stopped when her gaze made contact with Rex Anderson’s face!
It was the face of a god, deep and delicate, especially those absolutely thin lips. Even plastic surgery was not as perfect as that. Ariel was lost in admiring the man’s facial features.
“Have you seen enough?”
“Where are the scars on your face,” she asked, confused.
“My face was never burnt”
Ariel was shocked. What did she just hear?
“You mean you’ve been faking your burns. What else are you faking?” she asked, hoping to get a reply, but the coldness on the man’s face made her understand the man owed her no explanation, as they were just couples on books. She stopped pursuing the matter.
Rex Anderson’s face remains indifferent as he fixed his gaze on Ariel.
“Mr. Rex Anderson, I’m not charmed with your face at all, so let me ask you again what did you do to me?”
“I did what any married couple would do in bed and I’m being honest, you started it all. When you were clinging to me and forcing me to sleep with you, why didn’t you open your eyes to see who I was clearly or why didn’t you ask me who I was?” Rex Anderson said menacingly without tearing his eyes off her body.
When Ariel realizes she was being stared at, she held her clothes tightly against her body, trying to cover every part of her flesh.
“Still pretending to be pure and innocent, eh, we both know you are no longer pure. You should be happy I didn’t even complain that you are not a virgin. The Ann’s are sure to be in trouble for giving the young master Anderson a used product.”
Ariel fell silent at his remark. He was right. She was no longer a virgin.
Seeing the lost Ariel, Rex lifted the quilt and helped himself to sit in his wheelchair, as he only wore a pair of shorts; his body was on full display in front of her eyes.
She would have admitted his body was perfect as there were no traces of fat and the outline of his muscles would have made her mouth water. It was her first time seeing such a naked man alive. However, the situation was different as she dragged her tired body into the king-size bathroom.
As the warm water flowered all over her body, Ariel scrubbed herself hard to wash off the humiliation she felt right now. But to no avail, the moment she moved she would feel a searing pain in between her thighs as if her whole body was ripped apart and put back together. Supporting herself against the wall, she slowly limped out of the shower with a pale face.
By the time she came out, the man was already dressed in his grey suit. He was looking at his reflection in a mirror while styling his hair. His side profile looked handsome.
Turning to face her, Rex ordered her quickly to get changed and put some makeup on. “Don’t forget to put some blush to your cheeks as well. You’re too pale.”
Right after saying that, a playful grin flitted across his lips.
Last night he was a devil in a man’s disguise. Right now, he is in a wheelchair.
Who exactly did I marry?
Ariel tightened the robe on her body, seeing the smile on his face, she stared at him for a while before breaking the silence.
“Are you really crippled? Or are you pretending to be one?
He stood up from the wheelchair and stood in front of her.
“See for yourself”
Ariel couldn’t believe what she was seeing right in front of her was the man whom she thought was crippled, standing in all his glory.
“So you’re pretending to be crippled to bully a woman? Is this game for you? You said you loved someone else. Why, I almost believe you are a faithful lover.
Rex inched nearer and smirked. “Was consummating our marriage last night an act of bullying? You’re my wife. Can’t I get a taste of you even if I love someone else? Besides, you asked for it”, Ariel blanched in horror.
Feeling the man’s heat even through the layers of clothes, she struggled to escape from the dressing table. At that point, Rex was holding her in a chokehold. “Anyway,
I don’t have time to do that now. Hurry up and put some makeup on. Everyone in the Anderson mansion is waiting to see us”. Ariel gazed at her ashen complexion in the mirror. Although she hated to do this, she would have to face the cruel reality eventually. They were legally married and even consummated their marriage last night. It felt like a dream to her. She was now a married woman who had to face the unknown Anderson family soon.
“In that case, can you please let me go? I’m not going to kick up a fuss. How am I going to put on makeup when you’re strangling me?” Rex Anderson released his grip as told and stood aside calmly. I don’t care if the reason you married me was true. If you want to achieve your goals, play along with me. Otherwise, I’ll make sure you die a horrible death!” “Okay, got it.” Ariel couldn’t be bothered whether he was putting up an act. All she knew was that she couldn’t afford to be kicked out of the Anderson family. At least, not for now… No matter how hard it is, I must remain in the Anderson family. It’s the only way I can use their influence to force my father to return my mother’s property.
