Arranged Marriage: To Hear Your Voice

141 Eros's obsession

Switzerland

Catriona finally got all of the evidences and saved it to her cloud storage. But just when she's ready to go, an unexpected person was behind her with those insane sneer.

"Oh," She rolled her eyes and then put away her phone. "Hello there, Eros." She acted cool and like meeting the long lost friend.

"Catriona, dear!" Eros said and fix his laboratory coat.

"I see that you can stand." She sneer and notice his legs still shaking and trying to balance. It has braces and those legs are useless. "Does your—dick still work. Your legs are surely paralyze." She wanted to anger the man since they haven't seen each other for long.

Eros scoff.

"You get bolder, dear. So why are you here?"

"Uhm, you know." She shrugged. "Trying to experiment something."

"Hand me the phone now." He lifted a gun to her.

"There's nothing to get there." Then her phone rings. She lifted it and it was Veronica calling. She was about to answer it but he snatch it out.

"Ohhh, sister is calling?" He asked and was about to answer it but it stop ringing.

Catriona has to leave as soon as possible.

"Cat, we need to evacuate." Tequila said through her earbud that is connected on her ear.

"Uhm, I'm so sorry, Eros. But I got a date tonight. Please hand me my phone so I could contact my boyfriend?"

"You aren't going anywhere." Eros's voice was clear and dangerous. His eyes was piercing and he grab her and injected something on her before she reacted. "I always love those beautiful eyes of yours." He mutters. Soon, the alarm was blaring. Catriona was in dazed and she lean on the wall.

"Tequila." She mutter. Her eyes was dilated and she grab Eros back. She slid her hand on him and reach something quickly as Eros's men took him to secure him. "Tequila." She stayed there and there's no lights. The red lights are fading and she still could remember the passage way though it was dark.

"Cat, where are you?" Tequila calls and he's panting from the other line.

"Guys, you have to retreat now! Boss's order."

"Catriona!" She heard his voice but she couldn't see him. She felt his arm wrapped around her. "You okay?" She felt his face in front of her but still it was too dark.

"Yeah." Tequila was quiet for a while and then he led her outside.

Everyone are evacuating but they never know that there's a huge show for them. It was a trap after all. And Catriona had found out after she was injected by something. Maybe it was her fate to die anytime soon.

"Let's go!" Tequila hold her hand.

"Why is it still dark?" She asked. "Where are we?" She look around and her eyes couldn't adjust the darkness.

Tequila hold her face for a while and look straight into her eyes. It has a little light on where they are but why can't she see. Then he saw a red dot directly to her head. He pull her down and they roll down on the ground. Then he remove her earpiece and cover her and the whole laboratory exploded just when the helicopter of the Swiss National police came up.

His ear is ringing and he pull out the bud and it was already bleeding. It was ringing too ringing that he couldn't hear anything at all. Catriona was talking so he read her lips.

"What happened?" she asked.

"It's fine." He might have said it aloud. He cover her up and drag her away before they had reached by something more. Then there's a thing that was thrown at them. His eyes widens. It's a grenade. So he pull her further and cover her. He groan in pain as he felt something was throw on his back. Probably big stone.

He look down at her and she's slowly closing her eyes.

"Cat, talk to me."

"I—I can't take it anymore." She mutter. He can still hear her a little.

"No! Open your eyes!"

"I—I can't see you. My eyes hurt—my head hurt." He hold her head and found that it was bleeding a little.

So he didn't waste time anymore. He pull her up and carried her out though he was injured. Soon, he heard a familiar voice. It was Death with their backup. He exhales and let them have Catriona.

"Death." He calls. "You have to hack Cat's phone. Eros has it." He said. "Block it." He said still breathless and he was given a blanket and then he couldn't hear people anymore.

"Got it!"

Soon, Death was done and they were sent to EPUA's base in Switzerland. He was treated and his ear keeps ringing. He couldn't hear anymore yet he could still feel the vibrations around him. He slept and after he woke up, he went to Catriona's room. She's still asleep and the doctors are monitoring her.

"How is she?" He asked the doctor. "Everything is normal. It's just a small cut on her head and not a bad concussion. We can't seem to find any wrong with her. She isn't waking up yet."

Tequila got worried as time pass. She can't see… what did Eros injected on her?

The door opens and a woman in disguise, wearing trench coat, burgundy lips and blonde hair enter. Then behind her was Samantha who was also in a little disguise.

"Clear the room." General who was behind orders. Everyone cleared the room and Sabrina who was in disguise walk straight to Catriona. She check her in every detail.

"I was late." Sabrina mutter. Tequila read her lips.

"Boss, she can't see… while we are escaping." Tequila said in very low voice. Sabrina stopped and she clenches her fist. He didn't tell her that he can't hear anymore. He watch their lips move and of course Sabrina notice it.

"Sam, draw her blood." She then walk to him and hold his cheek. She turn his face sideways. "You can't hear me, right?" Samantha stop when she heard Sabrina. She look up at Tequila who was still quiet and look into their boss's lips.

Tequila didn't say anything at all and just read her lips.

"I'll fix this." She promised.

"Something got into my earpiece after the explosion." He said. "I'm fine. Cat got something." He pull out a small box. Sabrina open it and it contains medicine. "It was Eros's medicine. I think he's taking something for his legs."

"Got it. Rest now. We are leaving for France."

"Sabrina." Catriona suddenly speaks and her eyes are open. Sabrina turn to Catriona and move closer to her. She reach Catriona's hand and Catriona press it. "The lights are on, right?"

No one speaks. Catriona closes her eyes again.

"Eros injected me something. It affects my body but it directly affect my head and my eyes. It was fast as lightning." She describe. "I may not see anymore."

"Don't worry. I promise you, I'll fix this." She promise. "I'll call, Enzo."

"Please, no." Catriona pleaded as tear fall from her eyes but she keeps it open. "Don't call him. I don't want to be a burden to him. That's all I ask for, Brina. Don't tell him what happened. I just can't see him anymore."

Sabrina grit her teeth and hold her tears in anger. Catriona, Veronica and Samantha are her friends though they look up at her as their boss. She will avenge Catriona and Tequila. Sabrina smile.

"Don't worry. I'll keep you away for now." She glance at Tequila. "As a big brother, you'll take care of your siblings."

"I will."

Sabrina's anger grows. She will avenge them.
