Chapters. 38

"God..." Mega was stunned, when Angga came to pick her up using a new car. Kijang Innova Zenix Hybrid white color is parked sweetly in front of his house. Angga came to pick her up like a princess tonight.

"Where do you like it?" ask Angga while embracing Mega's shoulders. It was not in vain that he sold the house he had occupied so far with Areta and Rosa. The money from the sale of the house he used to buy the latest car output with prices reaching hundreds of millions of rupiah. As a director, of course, he needs a vehicle as a support for his lifestyle.

"Of course love dong dear. It must be expensive, right?"

"Make you no problem, baby."

"But..." Mega turned her head, waving her spoiled lips in front of Angga's face.

"But why? You don't like the car? Or do you want another brand?"

"No. I just thought, if you buy a car this expensive, what about our wedding? I don't want you, if our wedding is just simple. Anyway I want our wedding to be held festive and luxurious. I don't want to be the neighbor's talk."

"If you don't have to worry, baby. I've prepared a budget for that."

"Oh yeah?"

"Of course, honey. What can I not give you? Hm?" Angga flicked Mega's nose squash. Who reciprocated Mega with a friendly kiss on his cheek.

"Thank you, baby?"

Angga smiled, feeling happy to be able to give Mega what she wanted. In order to realize Mega's dream marriage, he mortgaged his parents' house to loan sharks. While the debt in the bank has not been paid off.

For the sake of the wishes of the lover of Angga heart to have to borrow from loan sharks with a guarantee of the house that is still occupied by Wirda today. For only the house of his late father is the only treasure they have.

...

Areta just remembered, she did not bring a single change of clothes. All of her clothes are still in the apartment. Still wearing the bride's kebaya, she laid her tired body on the thick blanket she took from the bed. He used it as a base for him to rest after opening his hair bun and cleaning his face using wet wipes in the room.

He had just broken down, his eyes not long ago closed as his sense of hearing caught the creaking sound of the door opening. Followed by the sound of footsteps that sounded closer.

He held his breath, pretending to have fallen asleep as a warm touch of Henry's fingers stroked his face. As much as possible he did not make a movement, so that Henry thought he had fallen asleep.

But his heart was not fine as a kiss followed, landing on his left temple. Her lying sideways position to the right made it possible for her to hide her current tension. Which could have been clearly drawn on his face. He just wanted to avoid something he didn't want to happen to him tonight. Moreover, the status between them now was no longer a barrier for Henry to be able to do what the man wanted.

"Why are you even sleeping downstairs? Is my bed still less spacious for you?" A soft whisper was heard in his ear. But he ignored. He even closed his eyelids.

"Are you not cold sleeping down here?" Henry whispered in his ear. Makes him unable to calm down. The roar of his hunting breath was a sign that he was frightened at this moment. He just didn't want the man to mess with him.

"What if you get sick?"

But apparently, hope remains hope. His forced eyes had to open again when suddenly his body floated in the air. Makes him amazingly surprised. Both of his eyes were shocked to look at Henry. Who even smiled looking at him.

"I know you haven't slept" Henry said, lifting Areta's body. Put it on the bed.

Once entering the room, he was treated to a scene that frankly made him shocked and there was a little disappointment. Because of Areta's visible behavior she can see clearly if the woman still can not accept her as her husband. Disappointment also approached, because to this day Areta is still cold to him.

But something tickled her feelings as she approached, then whispered in Areta's ear, Areta's eyelids shrinking. A sign that the woman is likely just pretending to sleep. So that makes it anxious and wants to work on it.

"Down me!" pinta Areta with her sharp gaze.

"Yes, I'll put it down. But here." Instead of lowering Areta to the floor, he laid her on the bed. Then lock Areta's body underneath.

Which instantly made Areta's breathing seem to stop. Even his heartbeat was timidly frightened. This is what has been his concern since. Don't let Henry ask for his rights as a husband. As much as possible, he should avoid circumstances that he does not want.

"W-what are you doing?" areta asked nervously, wracked with fear for a moment.

Henry smiled sinisterly, staring at Areta's eyeballs intensely.

"Now you are my wife. So, I no longer need to ask your permission to do whatever I want. Including.." he said while bringing his face closer slowly. Want to reach out to the lips of Ranum Areta who teased him since earlier.

Areta's reflexes are looking away.

Henry was a little disappointed. Then put his face back away. Frankly, there was a burning desire that he had damped with great difficulty. Which he may not have seen. But seeing the appearance of Areta wrapped in tight kebaya so that it shows clearly the curves of the body of the makeup that makes it not resistant to want to immediately taste. They are now a legitimate couple. So he feels legitimate when asking for his rights as a husband.

"I hope you don't forget, we got married by agreement, not love" Areta said as she looked away, still under Henry's confinement.

Areta needs to remind Henry of the status of their marriage that occurred on the deal. So that the man will not be arbitrary with his new status. On paper, they are a couple. But not in reality for Areta.

"Because of the agreement or not, in fact now we are a couple. You are mine, Areta. I deserve you." One more thing that pierced Henry's feelings, it turns out Areta did not consider this marriage. At first he thought that Areta was starting to accept even though she was still cold. Because Areta never refuted his words during the time waiting for the decision of the divorce trial with Angga. But it turns out he was mistaken.

Areta smiled obliquely. "Our marriage is legal on paper. But in reality, this is just a dream for you. So never expect you to wake up from that dream. Because at any moment, I will never be able to love you. I'd rather die than give up my body. If you want to see me die, please touch me."

Henry was speechless hearing Areta's sharp speech. Who pierced his heart in. But for the sake of his love he will not give up seizing Areta's heart.

Waking up from the position of Areta's body, Henry then came down from the bed. Undeniably there is pain that he felt, slicing the pain to the bottom of his heart.

"Listen Areta. Right now you can hate me. But, someday I'm sure, you'll open your heart to me. I loved you for a long time. Whatever I'll do for you. I won't give up until you come to me." Henry said before he finally walked away. Leaving Areta glued to look at the door of the room slammed hard by Henry. Until it produces a loud thump that makes Areta jumped.
