SHADOW OF OUR MARRIAGE

CHAPTER TWO (ENGLISH)

"Wait, is that you? Are you the one on TV? Are you President Giovanni's wife?" the *karinderya* owner asked.

"Uh, um..."

What should I say?

Shoot, I don't even know this Giovanni.

Lord, help me.

I forced a smile.

"Ah, n-no, ma'am. I don't know him." I denied.

"Is that so? Well, then sit down. I'll prepare something for you to eat before you leave," the woman said, causing me to smile.

Happily, I sat and waited for my food.

After a few minutes, the food finally arrived. Porridge again. What did you expect? It's a porridge place!

A few minutes later, I finished eating.

I was about to leave when the woman who offered me food stopped me.

"Leaving already? Stay a while longer," she said, as if preventing me from leaving.

Before I could speak, I heard the sound of footsteps behind me.

I immediately looked towards the source of the sound and almost dropped my jaw when I saw who it was.

Wait... Is that him?

The man who took me from my parents' house six years ago?

I slowly backed away in fear.

"Let's go home, wifey."

WHAT THE—?!?!?

He's Giovanni?

He's my husband???

"You must be shocked, love. Three months in a coma is a long time. You need to rest,"

he said, attempting to touch my hair, but I quickly dodged him.

I saw a look of great surprise on his face at my reaction.

"Y-yes, let's go home," I said, walking out the door without looking back at him.

Goodness, what happened to me? Why did I marry him?

Wait, did he threaten me?

Or did he threaten my life?

Oh my god, maybe he's a bad person.

Who is he really?

My thoughts were interrupted when I saw him approaching.

"Let's go home, Freya. I know you're tired," he said, gently guiding me towards him.

"W-wait, where are you taking me?" I asked him in surprise.

"Probably to our house, Freya. You're my wife, and we live together," he said with furrowed brows. "Let's go back to the hospital tomorrow to find out what's wrong with you. You're acting weird," he added.

What kind of husband is this? Is he even a human

why he is so tall and handsome

"Get in," he ordered, and I immediately got into the car.

Even now, I still can't believe it.

What kind of man is this next to me?

Why did the 25-year-old Freya marry him?

**GIOVANNI'S POV**

I couldn't help but think about Freya's strange behavior.

She wasn't like this before.

But maybe it's because of what happened to her three months ago.

I just wanted to check on her and talk to her, but she's already asleep.

I carefully laid her head on my shoulder to keep her comfortable.

I gently fixed her hair while looking at her beautiful face.

"You're so beautiful, wifey."

Wait, what am I doing?

I must be crazy.

**FREYA'S POV**

I woke up because of the bright light hitting my eyes.

Wait, where am I? Why is it so bright here? I got up and walked around the room.

Wow, it's huge.

Is this really a bedroom, or is it a whole house? Our house back then wasn't this big.

I saw a picture frame with a boy and a girl in it. Wait, who are these? This picture looks really old. That's probably Giovanni.

But who's the girl? I was startled when someone suddenly hugged me from behind.

I struggled and pushed him away.

"W-wait, what are you doing?" I said in surprise, looking at Giovanni, who was shirtless and only wearing boxers.

"Hey! Y-you! From now on, y-you can't do that!" I said, pointing at him.

"Why can't I? I am your husband," he slowly approached, and I slowly moved away.

Until I had nowhere left to go.

He trapped me with his arms and stared at me as if he was ready to pounce at any moment.

I didn't know what I was feeling because it was a mix of nervousness, fear, excitement, and disgust—so many things! I swallowed hard when I saw him staring at my lips.

"F*ck, Freya, your lips look so delicious, I f*cking want to taste them," he said, and I noticed his ears turning red.

"W-what? I-hmpp—" I couldn't finish my sentence when he gave me a passionate kiss.

I tried to resist and push him away, but he was too strong.

He took both my hands and pinned them to the wall with his strong, muscular hands.

I couldn't struggle anymore, and I slowly responded to his passionate kisses.

I felt a heat in my body rising to my face.

I didn't know, but it felt like I was losing myself in his kisses.

His hand slowly moved from my waist to my breasts.

He massaged them while continuously kissing me. While he was doing this, I couldn't help but make noises.

"Ughhh~~ sh*t," I moaned because of the heat he was giving me.

"Breathe my name in passion, baby," he whispered, causing my body to heat up even more. He rolled me over and gently threw me onto the bed.

"Wait a second, baby," he said and went out the door, making me annoyed.

Such a tease!

It's annoying.

After a few seconds, he came back.

To my surprise, he was holding a basket filled with various kinds of fruit.

"What's that?" I asked, but he just smirked.

He took off my clothes, both my top and bottom.

"Your body is my playground tonight," he said, taking an orange and cutting it in half.

He licked it and sucked the juice.

Then, he came close to me and passed the juice to my mouth.

After that, he squeezed the juice of the remaining orange onto my breasts and licked it like a hungry and thirsty dog.

Because of the pleasure he was giving me, I could only hold the bedsheet tightly and gently closed my eyes.

His kisses rose to my neck and then to my lips. His kisses were deep.

I felt his tongue moving inside my mouth, tasting the orange juice he had drunk earlier.

I pushed him, causing him to look at me as if surprised.

I pushed him down and got on top of him.

"Now it's my turn."

—

I woke up to a very loud sound coming from somewhere.

I got up and rubbed my eyes before picking up my phone, which had been ringing.

Who is this?

Hera??

Who's Hera?

I quickly put down Giovanni's phone when I heard his footsteps.

I went back to lying down and pretended to be asleep.

"What? Have you cleaned? Make sure they can't find any evidence at the place where Freya had an accident. Fix it," I heard Giovanni say.

What's going on?

What is this?

Wait, could he be the reason for my accident?

Who is this Hera?

I can't just stay quiet.

I have a bad feeling about what's happening.

I will find the answers to my questions.
