Arranged Marriage: Dangerous Heiress

Chapter 235 - Adventure Starts Part 1



Andromeda prepared Zach\'s outfit for the week and her ready few tuxedos for other events. She\'s sure that Zach would be very busy because she\'ll be away, and he will do loads of work not to miss her. She already packed her bag and she glanced at Zach standing at the frame door of the walk-in closet.

"How long will it take?" He asked.

​​

"I don\'t know." She strode to him and reached his face. "I will be back. Don\'t worry."

"Safe and no scratch." He reached the back of her head. "You know what will happen if you come home with scratches."

She pouted at him and wrapped her arms around his waist.

"There are mosquitos and a few insects." She prolongs as she bit her lower lip slowly.

"Then kill them and don\'t let them bite you." He scooped her chin. Damn it, he wanted to tie her in bed so she wouldn\'t go anywhere and wouldn\'t get hurt. But then, she made that puppy\'s eyes and he needed to look away. He can\'t say no to everything she wanted to do. "I put a few ointments on your emergency kit. Make sure to always use lotion."

"I will." She promised. "I love you."

"I love you so much that if I could only tie you in bed so you wouldn\'t get hurt outside, I would do that."

She purred at him and scratched her nails on his chest lightly.

"You could only tie me when we are playing."

"Andy," he hugged her tightly and shove his face to her neck. "I love you so much that it hurts. It will be a torture to me when you are away."

She became silent for a while. She hated to leave but they can\'t be together from time to time. Still, there are ways for him to monitor her. He has become more overprotective than usual. She knew exactly why he\'s doing everything to keep her safe, although threats are all around her.

"Love, I can\'t bear being away from you even for a second." He pinched her cheek. "So, while you are away, you need to protect yourself. Okay?"

"Hmm. Yes, love." She kissed his chin.

"Good girl." He sighed and stared at her for a while and then he held her arms. "I will surprise you when you get home. You\'ll have a new suit. It will protect you more."

"Ah," She pouted at him. "You are the best husband in the world. My one and only, husband and no one can have you but this Goddess!"

He laughed boyishly and pulled her up. Her legs wrapped around him automatically. She hugged him tightly and he did as well, and she shoved her face to his neck.

"I will miss you, my hubby!"

"I will miss you too." He kissed her cheek.

"Hold me like this for a few minutes."

He brought her to the loveseat, and they stayed like that for long, not until his phone rang and he needed to answer it. He muttered on the phone and he faced her.

"I need to go as well. I have to pick up Fox and give Selina a few words."

"Okay. Be careful. I love you."

"I love you more." She kissed his mouth passionately and he needed to let her go.

Fin just finished the crib for their baby. It only took him a few days to do it and he made sure that it would be comfortable for their baby. He made a few finishing and then he put it in the baby room. He glanced at Selina who kept following him around. He understood her. He needed to leave.

"I put ointments on your bag and emergency kit." She reached his forehead with the damp towel that she\'s been holding.

"Thank you, my love." He kissed her nose.

"Messaged me every day." She demanded. "It wouldn\'t be hard, right?"

He nodded and he reached her hand and led her to their bedroom. He reached the watch that Andel customized, the same version that he uses to Ellen as a tracking. He gave the code to her, so she\'ll know where he was. Through it, he will send a message to her and to let him know that he\'s alive and he\'s fine.

"Come back quickly. Our baby is growing." She reached her tummy. He nodded and knelt one knee and kissed her stomach.

"I will be home before you know it." He kissed her tummy more and he helped her with her dress.

She requested a lot from him these past few days and he gave it to her. They always take a bath together and this might be their last bath together. After that, she helped him with a few clothes and then ointments and chocolate bars.

Outside, Andromeda is waiting, and she walked him outside holding hands and with his bag on the other hand.

They stopped in front of the door and he put down his bag and faced her. He reached her cheeks and kissed her passionately and slowly. After a passionate kiss, she held his hand and stared at him. Her eyes are a little teary and she looked so sad that he needed to leave.

"It won\'t take long." He muttered to her. "I will be back soon enough. Besides, it will only take a few weeks or days." He reached her stomach. "Take care of our baby while I\'m gone." He wiped her tears.

"I will wait."

"Make sure to take care of your body and our baby."

"I will." She sniffled and watched him knelt and hugged her waist and kissed her stomach. She looked away and wiped her tears.

Andromeda is inside the car as she watched how Fin shows affection to Selina. Her cousin is crying and that, she knew that Selina had fallen in love so hard to Fin and Fin is the same. Well, that\'s how Dragon\'s give their love. Fin loved her dearly as well and their baby.

Seeing how Fin care for her stirred up her emotions. There\'s a baby between them. Whenever she sees something like that makes her feel miserable for herself. If she only knew that she\'s pregnant back then, Zach would do the same. Zach would cherish her. Zach would love her more. But it\'s the past and she told him that she will never have a baby.

"Is it time for that?" She muttered to herself. She envied them. She sighed. Once she figured how to tell him, she promised to be careful next time. She won\'t lose a baby.

Fin kissed and hugged his lover for the last time, and he turned back with his bag and strode to her car. He opened the trunk and put his bag there and walked around to the passenger seat. He looked at Selina for the last time as she smiled tightly and mouthed him those few words.

"I love you. Come back."

His heartfelt heavy like he doesn\'t want to go but it\'s his mission and he can\'t abandon it.

"I love you more. I\'ll be home before you know it." He mouthed back. She nodded and waved at him.

Fin hopped in and put the seatbelt on. Andy drove the car to the gate as Fin watched her from the rear mirror. She\'s still crying, and he hates to see it.

"Don\'t worry," Andromeda speaks. "I will protect you. You will be home soon with her and your baby. First, we need to get that stone." She said to cheer him up. Fin nodded and smiled.

"Besides, Andel also needs a stone for Ellen. We all know how he spoiled her."

Andromeda laughed and turned the wheel gracefully. "

"I am so sorry Fin that you found your love in a situation like this." She paused. "I understand you. I know that it\'s hard to be away from the person you love most. I\'ve been away from Zach for more than two years and those years, I\'ve been trying to kill myself." She sighed heavily as she remembered those days. "Those days are over. But look at now, he came back to me. We are working this out together. We are stronger than before. We are more mature than before."

"Our mission isn\'t done yet. We can\'t get killed." He said those words like a promise.

"Yes, of course." She said with a smile.

"I will try everything for you not to die."

"I will do the same." She said softly. "I am a Mondragon. I survived more than ten wars. I survived more than a dozen assassin\'s empires. I can\'t die easily."

He chuckled and nodded.

"In this life, we will protect our loved ones, our family and this world if possible. We can\'t die on this mission." He said as he recalled the painful possible future. He looked at her. Andromeda is his first friend. She\'s his best friend and his savior. If it wasn\'t for her, he might be already dead. The Phoenix empire might be already dead.

No one knows that the Phoenix Empire still exists because of him and his cousin. Now, the baby that Selina has is his first successor and he will do everything to protect them even if it will cost his life.
