Chapter 2 002

~MARA~

By the time Ethan comes back, I had my body spotless clean without any trace of cosmetic or makeup. I can never get caught, I knew if that.

As I've learnt through the online course about being a good wife, I crossed my legs in the living room without any expression, watching TV and eating popcorn in the process.

I was so mad earlier when I had to reject the 10k dollars he offered for the sake of hiding my identity from him.

The door opened and he came in majestically. I quickly rushed to him "Welcome back Hubby how is work?" I asked as I bowed my head slightly.

Ethan seem to be getting used to how I bow my head always, he only shrugged and walked to the sofa and take off his coat, "Huh, how is you day too?"

I must say my husband is really very handsome, he's a snub, cold and aloof but yet, he never miss any chance to ask me how mu day was.

After Mrs Linda, my stepmother arranged my marriage to this man, I'd decided that I'll never let any affect brew between us and thankfully, nothing of the such is happening.

Before marriage, Everyone says he was an imbecile, a docile and a man with impaired skin. How can I marry an Imbecile, but my wicked Stepmother and her daughter played the mastermind in getting me married to him.

Only after I had signed the marriage certificate and was brought to his house did I know that the man I married was the perfect Male lead style that I wanted.

I am Mara after all, The last and the illegitimate child of the great Lopez family. I'm a Gangster. I do anything for money and I could beat people off too.

When Ethan told me about the reason for the rumors going in about him, I pitied him and had to abort the plan I had about leaving him

"I am not bad as you think, all I want is a submissive and obedient wife and you can take anything you as long as you remain submissive and don't bother yourself with my personal business" he had said to me on our wedding night.

Every night we eat together and watch TV together like normal couple would, we don't have casual talks and I always welcome him home like a wife would.

He doesn't know anything about my secret life of a gangster or how I used to sneak out to work, which is part of the reason why I had to stop my friends from working for him.

That night, We slept, I slept peaceful and soundly because I had worked hard during the day and stuck behind that thick make up and big dressing just to look like a clown weans me down as hell.

I only remember mumbling in my sleep then my husband cuddling me.

I woke up l, the next day to the arms of the man that I fear and respected, but never loved! ETHAN LEWISTON!

I looked up only to meet his handsome face close to mine. I gulped as I see those thick brows, pink lips and a nose to write home of, I can help but tracing his brows with my hands, his hair OMG, has soft strands that reminds me of a hair attachment model.

I wanted to roll off the bed and leave since he's still very asleep. But he grabbed me back, "Are you awake?* his magnetic voice asked.

I gulped, "Yes. Hubby quick to go take your shower and go for work, I'll be downstairs" I said quickly trying to leave.

"Don't you want to touch me earlier?" he'd now sat up smiling at me lovingly like he always does. But one thing I don't understand is why I don't even have a single feeling for this man despite his attempts to make me feel loved.

What should I do? My mind was in turmoil, I don't like him touching me either. "That...Em... I... Hubby I saw a dirt on your face so I tried taking it off, nothing like touching you" I lied quickly.

To my surprise, Ethan chuckle, "Did you know something wife?" I raised my eyebrows, "When it comes to lying, you always fail" he chuckled again.

I swallowed hard, I am in a tight spot right now. How can he joke in this dangerous situation?

"Hubby ain't you late for work? I will quickly go and prepare your bath, go prepare for your morning exercise" I didn't let him hold him back, I only jumped down the bed quickly.

My attempt to get off from him this time failed as he pulled my hand back and came closer to me. Before I could realize it, he was kissing me hard and deep.

"Always remember to wish me a Good Morning before anything, it makes my day" he whispered after releasing me.

Me: (.....)

I wanted to leave again he pulled me back to his arms and patted my cheeks, "Don't wear heavy makeup again it doesn't suit you"

Damn!!! Did he know I'm the one behind that heavy make-up?

I left his grip gently walking slowly to the bathroom to prepare his bath without any word and I could hear him chuckle.

~Ethan~

This submissive, little wife of mine is really something, although I don't really know maybe she is the one behind that heavy make up but my instinct is telling me that she somehow look like the gangsters we met at the suburbs last night.

I don't want to believe as it and I'll never believe it that Mara, the wife I dot on could go and do such dirty things.

My wife is an obedient and submissive, she is gentle, she doesn't talk much, whenever I talk she never talks back and she never look at me directly in my eyes, she always bows her head.

I came back from jogging, and met my little wife swaying along with the scent that was coming from the bath.

I stood at the doorpost admiring the kind luck I had of having such a wife when she looked back at me sharply.

"Hubby.....t..the bath is ready" she stuttered.

I smiled and walked over, "Alright"

She left me in the bath and after I'd dressed up, I take breakfast and wished her goodbye for the day.
