Arranged Marriage: To Hear Your Voice Chapter 289

Veronica take the hint as she come out from the dark and start shooting each one with tranquilizer. There's enough tranquilizer on her gun and for the last one…the bulky man with a height of 8 feet? Darn, one tranquilizer isn't enough for him. She search for the big dosage and shot him directly to his ass.
"Hey!" Someone shouts and she duck down and slide. She hold on the rail of the balcony and swung herself to the master's bed room's balcony. She didn't knock and just break the glass. She enter and saw Catriona already in her defense motion.
"It's Lily." Veronica said after ensuring that the room was secured. Veronica look at Eros and help him wipe his bleeding nose. "Cat don't mess up his face. He still have to look good in camera." Veronica said. She pull out the small camera as she start filming Eros's face.
"What's your name?" Veronica asked him.
"Eros…" He murmured.
"Who do you love?"
"Catriona." He laugh out loud.
"Why are you asking stupid things, Lily?"
"Just checking out. You know my biological father, right?" She asked as she wrapped him around the cloth and tie him such that he can't even move. However, he laughs.
"You are so stupid Veronica to be the Dark Lord. Am I right? You are not the Dark Lord…" He muttered. "It might be Sabrina or one of the Alvarez's."
"Why do you have to take Catriona?" Veronica asked again.
"Well, you will all die soon." He said. "At least I have to save my woman first before killing them off, if she will submit to me and just do everything I want—I will be merciful enough to let those three rascals live."
Veronica's eyes become fierce and her head boils. No one will hurt her nephews. Veronica punch his abdominal. He almost puke and he cough almost rolling off the bed. Catriona stood. Veronica give her directions and she started punching the man's face.

"That's great!" Veronica nodded satisfied. She glance at her wrist watch and receive a message from Shadow.
Five Minutes…
That's only what Shadow sent to her. Veronica activate her earpiece and Enzo's voice is the first thing she heard.
"Lily? Lily! Are you near Catriona? Is she there? Is she alright?" He sound panicking.
"Oh, shits…" Veronica mutter and muted the microphone. "It's your husband. He's getting crazy. He's over reacting. He's—damn crazy." Veronica's head was spinning. Damn, damn… Enzo is really this obnoxious."
Catriona reach her own earpiece and logged in.
"Enzo." She calls him. Enzo exhales on the other line.
"I am near, baby. Are you hurt?" The panic in his voice makes her heart crumpled. She bit her lip.
"No. I am fine. Don't worry, okay?"
"Please don't leave like that… Okay?"
They heard helicopter and men jumping from the helicopters with ropes on them. They started searching around and Enzo burst on the door. He almost flew to Catriona. As soon as he reach her, he pull her away from Eros who started talking unnecessary things. Veronica was focused on taking all of the information and Catriona told him to shut up.
Enzo's eyes become teary as he check her in the light. Her cheeks is red and there are hickeys on her neck and chest. He scoop her face and press his lips on her forehead.
"I am fine." She told him.
"You are not!" He almost scowl at her. He caress her hair and pressed his lips to control his emotions.
"Enzo…" She mutter. "I'm in my mission."
"Fuck that mission." He almost scowl at her.

"We got a meeting in an hour so—" He kisses Hailey's lips and cover her naked body. Jason just heard from Tony that Catriona got kidnapped and Veronica is on rescue, and he can't go to the party since he's baby sitting three adorable young men. "Stay here, I am so sure that you are fine…"
"I'm going to sleep. Take care okay?" Hailey said.
Jason start putting on his clothes and the EPUA jacket. He grabbed his keys and then looked at his adorable girl. He bent down and start kissing his face. Hailey giggles and told him to go.
"I hate to leave." He murmured.
"I won't leave, okay?" He caress her hair.
"Okay." He kiss her lips and then left her and peek on her before closing the door. He turn to Mark and saw him leaving the room with Allison.
"Where are you going?" Jason asked.
"Just leave. Sabrina will be in beast mode if we aren't there in an hour or so."
Jason left and enter the conference room. Sabrina has been sitting there, on her red chair as she keep clicking on the pen waiting for the time. Everyone are almost here and most of them are from the research and medical team. Hmm, interesting. Samantha came and sat down on the chair beside Sabrina.
Sabrina check her phone and Tequila opens the door as he stood behind Sabrina and Samantha. Then another upcoming people. Mark enter with a woman behind him. Allison?
Sabrina stood.
"Everyone, meet your new colleague, Allison." Just Allison and no surname and new Colleague? Jason was confused. "Allison, Samantha will be your partner for the research and order others for your needs in this research." She order directly.
"Little introduction, boss?" Jason asked. Sabrina rose her brows. She talk too little to her people.
Sabrina cock her head to Allison as Allison step forward.
"I'm Allison Warren. I specialize in chemical research…" Blah, blah, blah. Everyone are too surprised on her specialization and Mark bit his lips to avoid smirking. Surely, he was too lucky to have a genius fiancée with lots of accomplishments in short years.
Sabrina stood after Allison's introduction. Short and direct.
"She's a former doctor army. Do not underestimate her." She said and then she face Samantha. Samantha nodded. "Adjourn."
Sabrina left the room and Allison followed together with Samantha. Jason stood and look at Mark.
"That's my woman." He said and Tequila shook his head as he let out a little laugh as they followed Sabrina.
After Sabrina together with Allison and Samantha exited, there was a big commotion inside and they are muttering if it was the legendary Aqua.
"Aqua?" Jason asked Mark.
"Mark winks." So, it was the legendary Aqua. One of Sabrina's ace.
They deliberately met Eros on the corridor, Sabrina look at him straight and Tequila immediately was behind Samantha if anything happens. Eros look at Allison. He was still on drug for him to confess everything.
"Ohh, I know this one…" Eros mutter as he look at Allison. "You were in the war in Pakistan with me. Right? I got to say—your skills are really good and we both have a good vibes."
"Yeah, that's my woman." Mark walk in front of Eros and put his hand around Allison. Eros was too surprised to see him. Mark shaved off his beards and he even show the ring on Allison's finger. "I am getting married. How about you? Where is that handsomeness you are talking about? Even Catriona is disgusted with you."
Jason laugh out loud.
"I am getting married first before I see you get castrated."
Jason laugh out louder and Sabrina shook her head.

The Kodoku Game
In Japanese folklore, there once existed an ancient technique among alchemists for harvesting the strongest poison known to man. A poison so vicious, so horrendous, that a single drop could incapacitate an entire nation of humans, several times over. A poison so intense that a single drop could turn the tides of a war on its head. As potent as it appeared however, this poison could be harvested from the blood of a single insect alone- an insect the alchemist’s called the ‘Kodoku’. As lucrative as was attaining this poison however, the problem lied in identifying this insect- its appearance, shape and size changed from region to region and from continent to continent. Sometimes it took the appearance of a ladybug and other times a horned-beetle. In order to determine the identity of this special insect the alchemists came up with an ingenious method. They created an impregnable jar of clay out of the best sandstone they could find and placed hundreds of different insects into the same jar. The jar was made with such great mastery that it allowed no insects to escape and allowed no objects to enter. The laws of nature dictated that the insects would remain together in the jar forever. However, it turned out that as time went on, the insects’ hunger for food and power caused them to turn against each other- one insect ate another until only one remained. This sole insect contained a poison that far surpassed that of all the others and became stronger as it ate more and more insects. The alchemists at this point had succeeded in identifying the Kodoku and could extract it’s poison as long as they continued to feed it regularly. Although this folklore ends here, the actual story does not. One day, as the alchemists cheered in joy of having identified the Kodoku they so eagerly wanted, they forgot to close the lid on the very jar that was considered to be completely impregnable. This small gap was just large enough for the Kodoku inside to crawl out. Famished from not having been fed for weeks, the Kodoku ended up eating the very alchemists that nourished its growth until not even the bones remained. Yet, the Kodoku’s hunger didn’t seem to subside in the slightest. So it traveled to the next village and began eating whatever it could find there. Its poison made it unparalleled in strength and slowly but surely it began to dwindle down the population of the entire city. Yet its hunger only continued to grow. So it traveled to the next city over and ate all it could there. Very soon, the Kodoku couldn’t find any more food to eat. There was no one left to eat and no one left to spectate. So it stood there, by itself pondering what possibly was left to eat that could satiate its hunger. But there was one thing left that Kodoku realized it had never eaten. Itself.
