Caged Pheonix
Violet has always been the perfect daughter and the loyal friend, moulded by expectations, driven by guilt, and too afraid to disappoint. From childhood, she was taught that "good girls don’t argue," and so she spent her youth silencing her desires to fulfil others’ dreams. She chose the degree her parents wanted, behaved like her parents wanted, and even married a guy who's father was her dad's business partner.
She worked hard, hoping love could change her life, but all she earned was humiliation, no matter how much she gave, it was never enough. Her so called family never even asked what she wants. All her life she spent earning love from her parents who raised her to bear the responsibility of a good daughter.
She never say no to her parents knowing they are the reason of her living a good life. She wants to repay the debt for raising her in a safe environment like her real parents even though they are not.
But she didn't expected her soon to be husband will turn out her bully.

Chapter: Chapter 50 (18+)Violet lay beneath him, wrists still caught in his grip, chest rising and falling too fast to control. Ethan hovered over her like he was the very air she needed to survive, close enough that every breath she took was warmed by him. He studied her for a moment, savoring the sight of her pinned beneath him, cheeks flushed and lips kissed swollen. His voice came out low, a dangerous whisper, “You’re so obedient tonight.” Her eyes flickered up to his, shy but burning. “I want to be,” she whispered. “You don’t just want to.” His fingers slid along her jaw, tilting her face up. “You are.” She swallowed, heat flooding her everywhere all at once, but she still stayed in her place without moving. “Yes.” “Why is that?” he asked in amusement. “I want to make you feel better. I want to show you that I belong to you only. You are the only one who can make me do these things and no one else,” she answered, making his eyes soften for a second. Ethan lowered himself, trailing his mouth ju

Chapter: Chapter 49She opened the hotel room door with a little difficulty and dragged drunk Ethan inside. She closed the door, making sure Ethan was safe in her arms, then guided him to the bed and made him sit.“Ugh!..… We… We are here.…”She dropped him on the bed and finally sighed in relief.“You…. You are mine, Violet...…” he mumbled.She looked at him and clicked her tongue in frustration. Because that strange guy kept staring at Violet, Ethan got so jealous that he kept drinking, kissing her in front of the guy to show who she truly belonged to.He got so drunk that Violet decided to leave before he got knocked out. She huffed, feeling tired after dragging him to the hotel room.She grabbed her night suit and went to take a shower before going to sleep. It had been a very long day, no matter how much fun she had, the tiredness in her body was inevitable. The only thing that could heal her was a gentle, warm shower.When she came out of the washroom, she found him sitting on the bed with his hand

Chapter: Chapter 48"It's…..... so beautiful." she whispered while looking at the scene slowly moving with them. Ethan smiled, looking at her genuine smile full of admiration. "I knew you would like this place." The boat glided out from the riverside dock, the lights shimmering softly on the dark water. The Seine was moving slowly and smoothly. Every ripple was capturing a reflection, street lamps, passing cars on the bridges. Behind them, the Eiffel Tower was almost touching the sky, its golden lights making it look like a huge torch watching over Paris. At the top of every hour, it burst into sparkles, a surge of diamonds against the deep blue night. The glitter scattered over the river, turning the surface into a dancing mirror of the black water. Every scene felt like a lofi dream. For a few seconds, she was just convincing herself that it's not a dream, it's real. She glanced back at Ethan, who had his eyes on her the whole time. She smiled brighter while looking at him. "I never smiled that m

Chapter: Chapter 47Looking at the painting, she felt so loved just by witnessing how Ethan was looking at her, with his eyes full of admiration. She looked up with a little blush on her face and quickly glanced at the artist."It's so beautiful, thank you so much!"The artist nodded at them, and Ethan paid him before looking at the painting that Violet was holding."You look so pretty, even inside the painting," he said while looking at her figure inside the painting. She chuckled and took out her phone to click a picture."Shall we take a selfie here? We might forget the place, so let's record it. It would be easy to find it later," she suggested, making him surprised and amused at the same time."So... you’re saying we might come to relive our honeymoon just like the old couple we met?"She pressed her lips together."It's not a bad idea..."He took her phone in his hand and pulled her closer by her shoulders to click a few selfies. He gave her phone back, and she gasped when she saw her selfie."Oh n

Chapter: Chapter 46After the romantic breakfast, their next stop was somewhere Violet had always dreamt to go."Montmartre," she whispered, looking at the hill.It’s a hill overlooking Paris, its cobbled streets winding like a storybook. It’s where painters once lived, Picasso, Van Gogh, Monet. Today, it still feels artistic and alive, with the Place du Tertre square filled with easels, portraits, and laughter.They could hear accordion music in the distance and smell crepes being made from a street cart. The walls were covered in vines, and small cafés had flower boxes spilling with red geraniums. From the top, the Sacré Coeur Basilica gleamed white against the blue sky, and below, the entire city stretched out like a painting.Artists called out softly to passersby, offering to sketch them in minutes. An old couple strolled hand in hand, walking in front of them while contemplating something trivial. They could hear tourists laughing, and pigeons fluttering from rooftop to rooftop."Do you like it?" h

Chapter: Chapter 45The first thing Ethan did after their morning routine was book a ride, without letting anyone know, not even Emma. He secretly tugged Violet out of the room, glancing around to make sure no one noticed them sneaking away. Violet’s stomach twisted with excitement. It felt like the rush of a teenage secret relationship, wild and thrilling, especially now that they were on their honeymoon. She wore a soft floral dress with a woolen jacket and medium heels, thinking they were heading to a restaurant for breakfast. But when Ethan led her out of the hotel premises instead, she frowned, slightly confused. “Where are we going?” she asked, brushing a strand of hair from her face. He stopped in front of her and turned around, his gaze lingering on her longer than usual. For a moment, he just looked at her, really looked at her, noticing the little details: the light pink gloss on her lips, the way her curls framed her face, the shy sparkle in her eyes. A smile tugged at his lips before he le
