Dark Romance: A Cruel Obsession

“Please calm down,” Mare blocked her path, “I’m very sorry, I didn’t mean to make you cry, but I have to take you back now, Mr. Hargrave will be worried about you.”

“Why do you listen to him so obediently?” Vivian pleaded unwillingly, “I just want to be alone for a while; I don’t want to return to that cage so soon.” Indeed, the Golden Hill Apartment felt like a prison to her, and she was truly fed up.

“I am Mr. Hargrave’s soldier,” Mare said, “I will always be loyal to Mr. Hargrave.”

“You should say that to him,” Vivian sniffled, visibly upset, “Anyway, I am not happy at all.” Everyone around her was Alajos’s man, all helping Alajos to watch and control her.

Alajos had always been in control of her freedom.

Luzia sat in the car, glancing over frequently, looking concerned as Vivian appeared very sad.

Vivian still showed no intention of getting into the car. Mare did not urge her, nor did he want to let her wander too far. They maintained a distance of 2 feet from the car at all times.

Vivian was troubled; she sat on a bench on the side of the street, facing a leisure plaza. At the fountain, someone was feeding pigeons. A dog ran over, and the pigeons scattered in a flutter.

“How long have you been with him?” she asked.

“I don’t remember,” Mare replied, “Too long.” People are always insensitive to the passage of time, but when they look back, a lot of time has gone by.

“Will he fall in love with me?”

Mare was silent for a moment, “Capo doesn’t need love.”

Everyone told her that.

She understood it well herself.

Love is a weakness, and Capo doesn’t need weaknesses, nor can he have them.

Alajos was destined not to give her what she wanted.

“Are you afraid?” Mare lifted his hand; he seemed about to touch Vivian’s hair but quickly realized it was inappropriate and withdrew his hand, “I am here to protect you; no one can hurt you, don’t be afraid.”

“No one can hurt me?” Vivian laughed, a mocking laugh, “Not even Alajos?”

“Why would he want to hurt you?” Mare was astonished, “He’s your husband; he won’t hurt you.”

“But he will consume me.” Vivian took a breath, her nose red, “Luzia said that as soon as I put on that wedding dress, Alajos will go crazy, he will hurt me.”

“That’s not called hurting,” Mare struggled to explain, “Maybe he really will go crazy, but he won’t hurt you, you have to believe that he can control himself.”

Vivian shook her head, “You don’t understand at all.”

“I don’t love him; I don’t want to sleep with him.” Let alone be the tool for bearing his heir. Her life would be devoid of light.

“But…” Mare frowned deeply, “You are his wife; he has the right to have you…”

Under Vivian’s glare, Mare had to close his mouth.

…

The ride back was silent. Luzia sneaked glances at Vivian several times; her eyes were red, and she could not cheer up.

Luzia wanted to talk to Vivian, but Vivian was not in the mood.

Luzia fiddled with her fingers, not sure how to comfort Vivian; after all, it’s very normal for married couples to make love, as the law allows.

As soon as Vivian returned to the apartment, she went into her room and lay on the bed, not wanting to move.

Luzia was supposed to go home, but she didn’t want to leave and expressed her desire to stay close to Vivian.NôvelDrama.Org owns this.

Remembering the wedding ring on her finger and their similar fates, Vivian couldn’t bear to refuse her and generously shared half the bed with her.

“Are you still thinking about the wedding night?” Luzia embraced her, “Why are you so afraid?”

“I don’t want to be afraid either.”

“Actually, it’s not that scary. You just need to lie on the bed, and leave the rest to him,” Luzia propped her head on her hand, “He will bring you pleasure; you just need to cooperate with him.”

“Uh, it might hurt a bit the first time,” Luzia thought and said, “But the second and third times will be better; you’ll start to enjoy the feeling.”

“That sounds terrifying,” Vivian said in horror, expressing that she could not understand, “Why would anyone like such a scary thing.”

“Why do so many people seek one-night stands?” Luzia revealed the answer, “Because sex is inherently pleasurable.”

“If the person is a handsomehunk, like Alajos, just the thought can be exciting,” Luzia suggested Vivian close her eyes, “Kissing, caressing, rolling, rhythm, panting, climax… I guarantee, you’ll come to like this feeling.”

The entwined bodies from her dreams still haunted Vivian’s mind; she couldn’t imagine herself lying on the bed like the woman in her dreams, at the mercy of a man’s rough and savage ravishing. It would drive her insane.

“No, that’s too horrible,” Vivian shuddered, shaking violently, “We hardly know each other, we don’t even have love.”

“One-night stands don’t have love either, but they still find pleasure,” Luzia shook her head, “Vivian you can’t be like this, you’re too fixated on love, your family doesn’t allow you to have love, and you’re powerless to change that, that’s the source of your pain.”

“Dear, forget about it, it will only make you more miserable,” Luzia hugged her tight, “You should enjoy the wealth, power, and honor our respected Capo brings you, not fear him.”

“No, I don’t want to, I’m not willing…”

“He will bring you pleasure; you will love the feeling of climax,” Luzia closed her eyes, “Men are born to please women, especially in bed. Being able to quickly bring a woman to the pleasure of climax is their bragging right among their peers; they are very experienced.”

“Does that include Alajos?” Vivian wiped the corner of her eyes, her fingertips wet, “Has he been with many women?”

“I’d like to tell you no, but in fact, I can name several,” Luzia opened her brown eyes, gazing at the ceiling, “Which one to start with? My once good friend Sophia had an affair with him, by the time I found out they had already slept together. Sophia even boasted to me about it; she said Alajos was the most valiant and enduring among the men she’d been with, his vigor wasn’t limited to his leadership.”

Vivian gasped, the only thought in her mind, I’m finished.

She sighed and said, “Thank you, I don’t feel much comfort.”

Luzia covered her mouth and laughed, “Although Alajos is fierce and rough, he indeed can bring unimaginable pleasure to a woman.”

“Stop talking,” Vivian regretted it, she shouldn’t have discussed this with Luzia.

Luzia was in high spirits, “Don’t be shy, Vivian, the wedding night will come sooner or later.”

“I want to run away.”

“You can’t escape,” Luzia said regretfully, “Mare will protect you until the wedding night.”

Vivian felt powerless, “I’m starting to dislike Mare.”

“Disliking Mare is of no use, he listens to Alajos,” Luzia patted her back, “If your husband can’t have you on the wedding night, you will be blamed, and your family will be ridiculed.”
