* The Chosen Bride *

" Hey !what are we doing? are we celebrating your wedding as well as your birthday in one? or you're drowning yourself in the spirit of the wine we are drinking?", Maki, Mira's bestfriend asked looking at her friend with a sympathetic look.. They had been drinking wine secretly in her room while a stylist was busy doing her hair and make up before they help her in wearing her cheongsam a red wedding gown with silver and gold accessories.

" Oh come on, yesterday's my birthday, but I wish this is just a dream, I wish this isn't true, I don't want to get married yet Maki, I'm too young for this responsibility", Mira confided with her bestfriend.

" Please, don't cry! you're ruining your make up", the make up artist told her.

" But for me you have the perfect husband, a gorgeous and successful man waiting for you to appear outside of this room, please made up yourself this is just the first gown you'll wear today you still have three throughout the day, it's a bit tiring for you that's why stop getting drunk besides this is the first time you drink wine and on your wedding day?",, Maki told her.

" I need it, I'm so nervous,look ! my hands are trembling and I can't control it", Mira said.

" Come on! compose yourself , you need to be sober when you show up at the family altar to pay respect for nature, your ancestors and deity after your wedding ceremony at the judge office", Maki adviced.

" Please go with me at the government office, I need your support there", Mira beg.

" That is suppose to be private for your family only," Maki told her.

" But for me, you are not just my bestfriend but a sister that will always be a part of my family", Mira said.

" Of course I'm flattered if you think so, but don't worry I'll be with you all throughout this day ,but I hope you will not ask me the same for your honeymoon after the wedding", Maki jokingly said.

" Oh nuts!", Mira answered.,

She was so scared and jumpy everytime Carli touch her hands or any part of her body. He had been seducing her even before they had been preparing for this wedding, and she always evaded it by telling him they had to wait until after the wedding, she feels so unprepared emotionally, psychologically and physically for this wedding with a man betrothed to her two years ago.

" I had been waiting for this moment for so long, now you're all mine", all hairs in her body seems to rise in panic when Carli whispered those words in her ears after the wedding ceremony.She doesn't say anything, what is she suppose to say? this is the moment she had been dreaded for the past two years.. After the lavish celebration, her new husband pay respect to her parents with the absence of her only sister, who decided not to attend the celebration eventhough how hard their parents beg, before bringing her to his family luxurious home. His family had gathered in their sala for a warm welcome for her as a new member of their family.

" I'm so tired", she intentionally said when they reach his room that now she will share with him.

" I feel the same too, we will rest for now", after putting down her luggage,Carli go to his own wardrobe and get a pair of clothing and entered the bathroom to take a bath..

She scan her own luggage for clothing and a towel and wait for Carli to come out of the bathroom. She is scared of what will going to happened in the future, but for now she was trying to inculcate in her own brain that she's already a wife for this man. She had no choice but share his bed and let him decide for their future together anyway he is the one who planned it all she should do must trust him with her own life from now on.

Carli was already soundly asleep when she emerged from the bathroom, she feel so refresh after taking a bath. She lie down on the pillow beside him, anyway he is already heavily sleeping and she's so sleepy, it might be because of the wine she had been drinking with Maki earlier.

" Wow! you taste like wine, did you drink earlier?", it was the husky voice she heard and the kiss on her lips as well as the touch on every part of her body that awaken her in the middle of the night.

" Please stop it, I am not ready for this now", she cried to resist the assault he was doing on her body.

" You're my wife now, and it is your obligation to satisfy me with your body, I had been trying for so long to have you but you keep on resisting me", Carli obviously was in an unstoppable attack on her young body.

" Please ! can't we just postpone this sex thing until I'm ready for it?", she begged, however hard she tried to fight him off, he is too strong for her.

" I'm already thirty years old it's time to have my heirs with my wife", he is determined to have what he want with her. She know even if she will fight him til morning come it's no use for now , so she just let him have his own way towards her body, and in a few minutes more she's already enjoying everything he was doing with her body she felt the stab of pain for a few seconds but it was an enjoyable journey all throughout afterwards..

After that fright on their first night, she became addicted to it,, everytime he made an attempt she simply allow him and enjoy the joyous voyage of sex with her husband..

After three days of their marriage they both come back to her parents to ask blessing before going to the Philippines with her husband to settle and manage his business. Upon arrival to the Philippines Carli called for a meeting to introduced his new wife to his employees. Everybody give them a congratulatory greetings which she shyly responded with a simple thank you.

" I will prepare a food for everybody tomorrow as a post celebration for our wedding" Carli promised. Everybody applauded when they heard of the announcement. Carli guided her on the second floor of the building where the office staff are located.

" You're so beautiful ma'am, that's why sir Carli had chosen you over his girlfriend Daina", one of the oldest office staff said in english while Carli was outside of the room talking to the manager.

" Sshhh..you're so nosy!", the other girl in office uniform reprimand. She thought, all along no one know about her sister Mandy's existence with his employees.

" Okay guys, I want you to know that my wife Mira will be incharge of your salaries and any office businesses, she will be your direct boss here in the office.", Carli said.

" Ma'am Mira welcome to the Philippines!", the office staff pointed at the tarp that says 'welcome to the Philippines ma'am Mandy'.both Carli and Mira look at each other.

" Sorry guys! I forget to tell you my wife's name is Mira," apologetic Carli said.

" Oh, I'm so sorry sir, but we thought her name is Mandy", the oldest girl of the group said.

" Actually my fiance Mandy is the older sister of Mira, but it's a long story to tell ", Carli corrected their assumption. By that time Mira realized it was her own existence that his people doesn't know about.

" I want to continue my study, "Mira told Carli after a joyous union in bed.

" Sure! if that's what you want I will support your plans all the way, just look for the best university . Anyway you need that in running the office whom everybody had a college diploma", Carli agreed .

" I had no idea you run such a big business here in the Philippines," Mira said.

" I didn't even know it will grow this big, anyway when I started I have only two employees with me and I was right ! a business with appliances will grow big because almost everybody want it for comfort," Carli lovingly relate to his wife.

" So basically you are already very rich", she jokingly toyed with her finger the tip of his nose which he tried to bite jokingly a playful action which later had brought them to another enjoyable rumble in bed. She never thought being wife to Carli was enjoyable as this one.

" I don't know what happened, but you are too young by that time, you're only fourten years old, but you really got my attention", Carli confessed during one of their dinner.

" That's why you tried to corner and kiss me in our sala? I was so scared you know!", Mira reminded him.

" I feel so guilty thinking I am already a pedophile", Carli confess.
