Married to the loveless CEO-Chapter 141: Damsel in distress

Logan was currently holding a gun, so he shot at Salvador. He missed the first aim but the second finally touched Salvador’s leg.

"Ah," Salvador groaned, then he held his injuried leg and started limping away.

Logan shot his other leg, then Salvador finally fell immediately to the ground.

Logan walked towards him.

"You bastard!" Salvador cursed as he groaned in pain. His face also contoured in pain.

Logan got to him and yanked the seal from his hand.

"Did you really think you would succeed with this pathetic plan of yours?" Logan rubbed it in. Salvador gritted his teeth at him.

"How pitiful!" Logan added and pointed the gun at him.

"Hey! Wait, wait!" Salvador pleaded. "Don’t kill me!"

"Oh I shouldn’t. Okay, but you will have to give me a good reason why I should spare your life," Logan replied.

"Uhm...uhm..." Salvador contemplated on a reason.

Then Logan cocked the gun;

"Hey please! Uhm... I’m your uncle boy, you can’t do this...i-i’m family," Salvador pleaded.

Logan scoffed, "What a stupid reason!"

BANG!

"It was bound to happen anyway," Anita Manchester stated as she took a sip from her cup of tea.

She was currently at the patio of her house, chatting with Logan.

"But I want to know something Logan, why did you risk your seal all because of a woman who rejected your feelings?" she asked.

"Well... you don’t expect me to just stand by while the woman I love gets hurt, whether she returns my feelings or not and besides...I had everything covered, especially with Finland’s help," Logan replied.

"So are you two on good terms now?" she asked further.

"Hmm hmm," Logan replied as he too, also sipped from his own cup of tea.

"So, does my daughter really have no chance with you?" Anita inquired.

Logan huffed, "Like I had said, Jenny is like a sister to me,"

"Okay. I see," Anita responded.

"Tell me Anita, why didn’t you join my uncle’s in overthrowing me? I did reject the marriage proposal which was the main reason you have always been by and on my side," Logan asked.

Anita chuckled softly, "You really think I would just turn against you all because of that. I really liked you for my daughter but because you rejected the proposal...is not enough reason to plot evil against you,"

"I can never do that, because as Jenny is like a sister to you...You are like a son to me," she added and Logan smiled.

"Jenny went back to abroad. It will really take her some while to get over her feelings for you but...all good," Anita continued.

After Logan left Anita’s, he went to Fi’s house. He met Sentencia there.

"Sentencia," Logan nodded at her with a small smile. She returned the smile and nod.

She later excused the men, so that they could talk privately.

"So..." Fi started.

"So," Logan replied, they were both standing.

"I came to say...thank you and also to apologize for how I have been treating you these whole time," Logan added.

"It’s okay. I already know that you are a world class a**hole," Fi replied and they both shared a laugh.

"I know Sentencia is in good hands. Take good care of her," Logan continued.

Fi nodded.

"Or I won’t hesitate to take her away from you," Logan added.

"Not a chance," Fi replied with a smirk.

Logan smirked back, then he sighed.

"Good bye." Logan ended and exited.

Sentencia soon came back. 𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝓿𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝓶

"He already left. I wanted him to join us for lunch," she tsk.

"He already left," Fi repeated. His hands began to snake around her waist, he smiled down at her and she smiled back.

"Fi," she started.

"Yes," he answered.

"Can you teach me self defense?" she requested.

"What? (Huff) You want to learn how to fight?" he asked.

"Hmmm, not all the skills. I just want to learn how to defend myself, so that I won’t be a complete burden to you-"

"You are never, Cia," he cuts in.

"I will protect you Cia. You don’t have to worry, I will never let what happened to occur again. I promise you," he added.

"Okay, but you can’t always be with me. Playing damsel in distress really sucks," she replied and he laughed.

"Okay. I will teach you some few moves so that you can defend yourself if the need arises," he responded.

"Thank you." she appreciated, as she hugs him.

...

Cia soon started training with Fi. She did it whenever she had some free time to spare, apart from spending normal couple’s time with him.

"How often do you exercise?" Fi asked her.

"I always exercise, apart from when I go to the gym or go jogging. I do some light walks if I have a busy day ahead or if I’m just too tired to exercise," she replied.

"I see. First of all, we are going to do some exercise together to strengthen your body and make it more active and alert," Fi declared.

"It’s not like I want to seriously fight anyone. I just want you to teach me some easy ways to defend myself," Cia whined.

"We will get there, this is part of it," Fi told.

Then they started doing some exercise together, they did it often as it was kinda fun then Fi started teaching her some easy tips to defend herself.

"You have to have quick reflexes, always be ready for anything. I’m not saying you should be wary of everything, just... quick reflexes makes you to react faster in times of danger.

"But don’t always act on impulse, be rational and plan your moves well. Well... depending on the circumstances and situation, some things can be spontaneous," Fi elaborated.

"Yes Sensei," Cia responded and Fi laughed.

"Stop that," he said.

He began to practicalized some few moves with her.

When they were done, they both sat on the neat floor of Fi’s training room in his house, as they catch their breaths.

Fi smiled at her, "You are a fast learner, my love,"

She smiled back, then he started to laugh.

"What?" she asked him.

"Sorry, just that I’m remembering when I first started teaching you the moves... you were so funny," he continued laughing.

She pouted her lips then moved closer to him, "So you are laughing at me?"

"No...just the way you did the moves my love. It was funny," Fi replied as he stopped laughing. Their eyes stared at each other, lovingly.

Then Cia was the first to move in for a kiss. Her lips caress his, Fi just let her kiss him. She broke the kiss then her hand went to the hairs that glued to his forehead due to perspiration.

She slowly removed them, she smiled at him then started kissing him again. He kissed her back this time and they deepened the kiss as his hand rested across her waist.

He broke the kiss then he grinned at her, "Get over here," he said and made her sit on his laps.

"Do you think you can just seduce me and get away with it?" he started.

"Did I seduce you just now?" she replied with a smile.

"Then what was that kiss and that look in your eyes," he continued.

"Hmm...you tell me," she played along.

He chuckled.

"Ah yes..." he began, his hand went to his pocket, "Less I forget," he added, bringing out a small bottle.

"Perfume?" she collected it from him as he handed it to her.

"Nope, pepper spray. You can carry it along with you every where you go as it is portable, so that you can easily reached out to it and use it if the needs arises," he replied.

"I see," she examined the pepper spray.

She then removed the top cover, "How does this work? Is it like every other regular spra-"

"-Ah!" Fi yelled as Cia accidentally sprayed the pepper spray into his eyes as she was trying to figure it out.

"Fi?! I’m sorry!" Cia apologize her hands reached to touch his hands which had already gone to his close eyes.

He stood up slowly which made her to slide off him and sit on her own, then he rushed out of the training room.

She stood up and ran after him. When she finally caught up to him, he had gone up to his room and was currently in the bathroom.

"Fi... I’m sorry," she stood by the door.

"I’m coming in," she informed and opened the door to the bathroom.

He turned towards her immediately she opened the door. There was a small towel around his neck, some strands of his hair was damp as he had washed his face and eyes.

His eyes looked reddish, puffy and teary. He chuckled softly, "It was more effective than I thought,"

She walked towards him and hugged him. "I’m sorry," she apologized, she stopped hugging him and her hand went up to his cheek.

"Does it still sting?" she inquired.

"No, not anymore. You know..." he trailed off as he rested his head on her shoulders. Her hands went to caress his back, thinking he needed comfort.

He began to whisper into her ear, "You are the first woman and person to spray me with pepper spray,"

"I’m sorry Cia. But I will have to punish you," he raised his head to face her, then she saw his mischievous grin.

"P-Punish? W-What kind of punishment?" she stuttered.

"You’ll see."
