449 Turn His Attention on Her
âYou practically told your father to fuck off, you think heâs not going to do something about that?â Arianna asked Marcel on their way to answer Winterâs call. The girl told them she came up with something and since it had something to do with Chloe, Marcel was the first one on his feet after their sexy time.
He wanted her to have a break considering he hadnât exactly been gentle with her â Oh, he knew that? â but Arianna stood her ground. So even though she was sore and her body felt like a train wrecked it, that train being Marcel, Arianna still didnât want to miss any step out of the journey. Perhaps, that had to do with the fact that she was practically jobless and had nothing to do, most times in the base.
âOh, sweetheart, trust me when I tell you that heâs definitely going to do something about it. My father loves control, thatâs why he has shit on every family member, including his sister, so he can put them in their place when the time calls for it. Why do you think my family doesnât push him around as they do to me?â Marcel said and that made Ariannaâs heart lurch in her throat.
âWhen you say, put them in their place, you mean threaten them?â Arianna guessed.
âThreatening them is by far a blessing, Arianna, you can think way worse,â He didnât exactly answer her question.
However, Arianna couldnât help but wonder what shit Daniel have over Carmine, Victorâs mother? She didnât want to know, but wasnât it cruel to threaten his sister too? The woman wasnât even an active member of the Mafia and Victor had shown zero interest in being the leader. In fact, from what she has seen so far, the guy would rather run far away than be bundled with the kind of responsibility Marcel carries. But of course, Daniel is insecure and paranoid and no one can honestly tell what heâs thinking.
âHonestly, my father is not that bad,â Marcel suddenly said and Arianna gave him the look only for her to complete his statement, âAs far as you continue being his royal dog,â Marcel smirked at her intentionally knowing that he caught her off with that statement.
Arianna didnât say anything except glare at him as they walked on and for some strange reasons, she couldnât help but feel eyes on her. So she turned back only to feel one of the guards turn back at the last minute. Weird. Couldnât Marcel feel that?
However, Marcel simply walked on and she hastened her footsteps to catch on with his long legs. Beside him, Arianna went on to ask, âSo you think your father is going to try to retrieve Chloe as well now he knows thatâs your focus at the moment?â
.....
âNo,â Marcel shook his head, brows furrowed together in thoughts, âReina might be forgiving towards me, âmightâ being the word, however, Niklaus is quite vindictive and my father is not stupid enough to spook him and remind him that they have a feud he might have forgotten. So, he would focus on other ways to put me on his leash once more, â And I fear he would turn his attention on you, Marcel didnât add that.
Marcel wanted to save her that burden and reality where her father is after her for destroying his plans. Arianna knew that his world was dangerous, but how dangerous was it? She had no idea and hoped she would remain clueless just a little more. They say ignorance is bliss and he wanted her to enjoy that as long as it lasts.
The thought of losing her made an uncomfortable feeling settle in Marcelâs chest and he reached out and pulled Arianna to his front, wrapping his arms around her chest while resting his chin on her shoulder to her surprise.
What is going on? Why was Marcel being suddenly clingy? Arianna couldnât understand his mood swings sometimes, and she let him be. But that was until he took it far by kissing her neck and she shrugged him off.
He was unbelievable!
Arianna went first before him while he intentionally slowed his steps, enjoying the view from behind. Damn, he was a pervert, Marcel ran his hands through his hair before following after her.
âLook, who decided to join us,â Mimi was the first face to welcome her the moment she stepped in. There was a grin on her face that didnât sit well with Arianna and she has known her friend for a while.
âJust come out with it already,â Arianna rolled her eyes knowing that the girl had something to say to her.
Mimi said while throwing to hold off her laughter, âI know you and Marcel are anything but subtle, but the next time you both, you know...â She made her fingers meet suggestively and went on, âCould the both of you be less loud or you choose a soundproof room, I couldnât concentrate on anything today,â
Her friend put it mildly while Arianna went red in the face. It was so embarrassing and now she thought about it, that must be the reason the guards were looking at her weirdly. She had not been exaggerating when she thought the whole base heard her scream out in passion. Oh God, she wished the ground she stood on could open up and swallow her.
âYou couldnât concentrate on anything because you have a dirty mind, baby,â Victor appeared behind her friend, Mimi, and turned her around to steal a deep kiss from her lips and that was the moment Winters returned from her secret room she wouldnât let anyone in.
She cast a disapproving look at the both of them, âOh please, I warned severally, no public display of affection in my room. Donât corrupt me, your perverts!â
âAs if youâre truly innocent?â Marcel said as soon as he stepped in.
âThanks for the vote of censure, Marcel,â She retorted with sarcasm.
âWhat do you even do in that room?â Arianna was curious about it and knowing that Winters wouldnât tell her, she decided to apply a bit of reverse psychology, âDo you by chance spy on us?â
âSo you think I sit behind the screen and masturbate to the video of both of you going at it like rabbits? Eww and no. But thank you anyway for searing the visual in my head forever. Eww, once again,â Winters was disgusted.
