Chapter 7 AURA FOR AURA
"What the hell is wrong with you, can't you knock?" Lena shouted at the top of her voice, while trying her best to cover her breasts with her bare hands.
"It's my house remember, why in the world would I knock before entering a room in my house?" He replied still standing in front of her door feeling no remorse.
"Are you shitting me right now, get out" She shouted again, so pissed at his audacity
"Don't be so dramatic. I've seen a variety of naked girls before, and this doesn't move me" he said, pointing towards her body while checking her out, before folding his hands and standing still.
He really did not care about what it was that she had going on but also did not see that he was making her very uncomfortable.
"I don't care about the number of girls you have seen or have slept with Ethan, this is no way to treat a woman. Now get out you sick pervert." Lena was feeling so humiliated at this point but also felt powerless as she stood there unable to move, waiting for him to leave.
"Well I came here for a reason and I'm not leaving till I say my piece" Ethan said, in his ever dark and emotionless tone.
"Then at least turn around, you are making me very uncomfortable" she said again, hoping he would at least listen to her.
"We leave for our honeymoon tomorrow, there's no need to pack, and you'll get everything you need on the trip" he said not listening to a word from her.
He was a ruthless and mean Alpha male, and the likes of Lena meant nothing to him.
"Since when did you care about those things Ethan?" Lena asked, surprised at the sudden news he was carrying.
She had already accepted her place in his house and going on a honeymoon was the least expected thing from him, as he was not one to take pleasure in silly things like that.
"Well I don't, I just need to keep people from talking or questioning this marriage" he replied, still standing in front of her, but this time scanning her from head to toe again with his eyes.
"Well is that all?" Lena asked, instantly remembering that nothing about that moment felt normal.
"Am I clear though, I hate repeating myself" He said, still blind to how uncomfortable she was.
"Yes Ethan you are, now get the hell out and shut the door behind you" she shouted again, hoping it would work this time.
"I've practically seen everything Lena, what's more to hide" Ethan was beginning to get on her last nerves and he could finally see the change in her face.
"Fine, I'm leaving. But if you are so bothered about your body, then try locking your door or something" he said one last time before leaving her alone.
Lena rushed over to the door to make sure it was properly closed before falling to the ground in shame. She had never been so violated in such manner before and she let out a scream just thinking about it.
She moved over to her bed and fell on it, thinking about all that has happened in the last two days, and contemplating if she had really made the right choice.
She and Ethan were different in so many ways and their interests seemed to clash in almost all situations.
He was a condescending, arrogant and selfish asshole who gave not even a single care in the world about others, and she was a very emotional woman, who always thought about things and how they affected others before doing them. They were of very different worlds and it was very much clear to her.
Being so restless with her thoughts, she got up again and looked at the mirror.
For a second she wanted to see how exactly she was looking when Ethan entered and if she was even in the least attractive.
It was no news now that Ethan, despite being the cold and thoughtless monster that he was, was very hot and handsome, a man who had the ability to steal the heart of every woman he walked past.
His perfect figure and the way he spoke, sent occasional shivers down her spine and beneath all the hate and anger she felt towards him, there was an urge to get his attention.
Seeing as she was putting on just panties at the time he barged in and had to cover up with just her hands while he stood there watching, she recreated the act again, behaving the same way she did with him around, to see if it was cute.
"What the hell Lena, who cares what you looked like, he would never see you that way and you know it." She said almost immediately. Shaking her head disdain walking away from the mirror.
It was time to leave for their honeymoon the next day and Lena had no idea where they were going or even which country it was.
She had tried her best to dress up nicely in readiness for the reporters secretly following them but it didn't stop the confusion on her face.
"Get in, it's time to go" Ethan said as soon as he saw her coming out. He had already gotten ready a few minutes before and sat in the car patiently, waiting for her to come out.
"Can I know where we are going" Lena asked as soon as she got close to the car, refusing to enter till he gave her answers
"It's obviously somewhere you have never been, so don't overthink it and just get in." He replied, sounding very rude, and that pissed her off.
"You know, I'm not as poor and helpless as you think Ethan, my dad might not have been as rich as yours but he definitely did everything he could to make sure I was well educated and experienced. So I'm sorry to burst your stupid silly bubble, but I have been to many more countries than you think, I'm an artist for a reason" she said, folding her hands, and feeling very proud for defending herself.
She had decided to give back to Ethan the same energy he showed her as it was the only way to survive one year with him, without being eaten alive.
