Elena’s POV:
I felt a gentle hand tapping my shoulder. I stirred on the warm surface I was lying on. It felt so comfortable and warm that I didn't want to wake.
"Wake up, Elena." I heard a familiar voice. It was deep and firm. I stirred again.
“Elena, we just arrived at the airport; wake up. We have to board the plane right now.” and that's when I quickly opened my eyes.
I looked up to see that I was holding the handsome billionaire, Nicklaus, who is now my husband.
I slowly pulled away, and my cheeks reddened with embarrassment. I looked away, trying to hide from the embarrassing situation.
Nicklaus stepped down from the car. He extended his hands to help me out of the car. I hesitated. He gave me a questioning look, and I extended my hand and stepped out of the car.
I took a step forward, and I almost lost balance. I placed my hand on the car, and Nicklaus walked to me. He placed his hands on my waist to support me.
“Are you alright?” he asked.
I looked up at him and tried to compose myself: “Yes, I am.” I spoke and moved away from his grip.
Nicklaus turned to me. “We have to leave now,” he said, and just as I was about to move my legs, he carried me in a bridal style without hesitating.
What is he doing? Carrying me up in a bridal style? What do I do? How do I get him to keep me down?
“I can walk. Please, put me down.” I spoke, but Nicklaus was walking to the plane.
“We don't have all day for this sluggishness,” he said.
I struggled. “I said I could walk.” I protested, trying to see if he would keep me down.
Nicklaus fixed his eyes on me, and his eyes turned dark. “If you keep struggling, I will throw you hard on the ground,” he warned.
He seemed serious, so I decided to give in. I wrapped my arms around his neck tightly in case he tried to throw me on the ground.
I'm too tired to argue this morning. The closeness between us made me feel tense, and I had no choice but to give in. His masculine scent was so soft and relaxing.
This is going to be very difficult. It would be hard to ignore the charms of this man. I had seen him and read about him multiple times in magazines and blogs. I thought the hype on him was too much, but now I realise that he looks way better in person, even though I thought he wouldn't.
He looks way more handsome than Caleb. I am having my physical experience with him, and I have to protect my heart because he is way more charming than I had expected. I can't fall in love with this man, no matter how good-looking and tempting he is.
I won't allow myself to fall for this devil, who has no heart or emotions. How would somebody decide to get married to a complete stranger just because of wealth? How evil could that be?
All the crew greeted us with a broad smile. “Welcome on board,” the crew greeted.
They all looked cute and professional. The female crew looked hot and really sexy. She looked like a model, ready for a show on the runway.
He kept me down, and I quickly found my way to take a seat. I started to observe the surroundings, and from the way the crew greeted Nicklaus.
The interior of the jet is very beautiful and full of luxury. He must be really rich to own a private jet.
One of the female attendants walked in with a smile on her face. “The plane will take off in a few minutes; please fasten your seatbelts,” she announced, her eyes fixed on Nicklaus.
She was dressed in a short black skirt, a white shirt, and a cap. Her legs were long and sexy. Her makeup was flawless, and she tied her blonde hair in a sleek bun.
Nicklaus’ eyes were on me the whole time. He didn't notice the flight attendant.
I struggled to put on my seat belt, and he quickly rushed to my chair. “Let me help you with that sleepy head,” he said, gently fixing it.
His hands were so soft, and I could feel the tension in my body. I couldn't wait for him to be done with it so I could pull myself back together.
For the rest of the flight, I avoided eye contact with him.
The female attendant called, “Mr. Nicklaus Coleman, would you like to eat something, sir?” She asked while smiling and biting her lips.
“I'm fine. Ask my wife what she would like to eat,” he said, staring at me with a smirk on his face.
The flight attendant's tone changed, and she walked up to me. I'm sure she couldn't believe that I was married to this famous and handsome billionaire. I could see how she was just walking around him, just so he could notice her earlier.
“Mrs. Coleman, what would you like to eat?” She asked, frowning at her face.
“Just get me snacks. That will do,” I said.
“With a bottle of red wine,” Nicklaus said.
In a minute, the snacks and wine arrived. The table was served in front of us.
“Enjoy,” she said, and she walked away.
I snacked on the biscuit and sipped the wine. Nicklaus also joined me in drinking wine. He was so classy, and the way he licked his lips was turning me on.
When we were done, the table was cleared, and I turned my head to the other side of the chair and stared at the clouds. I admired the beautiful view. After a few minutes, I laid my head back and dozed off to sleep.
Nicklaus POV:I finished my glass of wine and decided to get some work done. I picked up my laptop and continued working on the ongoing project. I looked at Elena with my side eyes, and she avoided my gaze.I could not remember the last time I was ignored, especially by a lady. It had never happened, and I couldn't understand why Elena was avoiding me even though the flight attendant was shooting her shot with me. Who wouldn't want a wealthy and handsome billionaire like myself? I didn't even know if I should be amused by it or mad at her for ignoring me.I focused on my laptop and continued working. I heard some noise, and Elena stirred in her seat. She was acting as if she were uncomfortable, and she kept tossing around in her sleep.That's when I realised that she was truly uncomfortable and needed a proper rest. She must have been very tired and stressed.I loosened my seatbelt and walked up to her, then slowly took off her seatbelt. I gently carried her to the bedroom at the bac
Elena’s POV:I rolled out of bed and followed Nicklaus out of the plane. “Welcome to the Bahamas,” the pilot said. Nicklaus nodded his head. I turned to them and faked a smile, trying to be composed, but I wasn't satisfied with my nap. There was a questioning look on my face. I couldn't believe that we were coming to the Bahamas for our honeymoon, and I never bothered to ask where we were headed on the plane. I hurried to meet up with Nicklaus. “We are in the Bahamas?.” I asked him.He paused and turned to me. “What do you think?” He asked and walked past me. I gave him a daring look. “How rude,” I muttered silently and kissed my teeth.Some SUVs with drivers and bodyguards were already waiting for us on the runway.One of the guards greeted, "Welcome, sir, welcome, ma'am.” He greeted him with his head bowed low. The bodyguards were tall and imposing. They had serious faces and looked intimidating. If I wasn't with Nicklaus, I am sure they wouldn't have given me this much respect.
Elena’s POV:I turned on the hot water in the tub and essential oils to help me relax. Fragrant bubbles started to form. I soaked myself in the water and allowed my muscles to relax. I closed my eyes, exhaled, and let out a deep sigh.After a few minutes, I walked out of the tub and tried a fluffy white towel around my body, feeling softness on my skin. I had to be fast before Nicklaus walked in.I walked to the closet to search for my pyjamas in my box, eager to change into something cosy and go to bed. But as I turned around, I stumbled into something hard.Before I could even process what had happened, Nicklaus placed his hands on my shoulders to steady me. “Are you alright?” he asked, his voice deep.I nodded my head, “Yes, I'm fine.” I replied.He moved his hands to my waist and stared at me for a few seconds. I couldn't look up to him because I was already feeling embarrassed. His body was close to me, and I could feel the heat from his skin. I wondered in my head if he was goi
Nicklaus POV:I lay on the bed, my eyes closed, and I pretended to be asleep, but my heart was beating fast. I couldn't get over the feeling of desire that had been building inside me since I kissed her. She had become my weak point, and it was getting hard for me to control myself. I had planned to do more than that because I desired her and we needed to start our marital duty to produce an heir, but something held me back from touching her. I felt something that I had never felt before. There was a spark, and I felt the heat inside me. I burned for her deep down, and I wished I could have her to myself. The kiss felt different. It wasn't just a normal kiss, like the ones I had shared with other women. I couldn't tell if it was because I was angry that she had another man in mind or if there was a connection. I couldn't help but feel that she had another guy on her mind when I was now married to her. I tried to take the thought off my mind by thinking about something else. My har
Elena’s POV: It's a new day, and of course, it's another day as the wife of Mrs. Nicklaus Coleman.I found myself cuddled up in a soft body, and I felt the softness and warmth of the skin; it was as if I had been holding on to that body all night long. I snuggled deeper into his body without thinking. There is this feeling that I felt in me that I hadn't felt in a long time. I felt safe and protected.I slowly drifted off to sleep again, enjoying the warm body. I hadn't slept this well in a long time, and I could sleep all day.My hands were across, and I was holding him like I never wanted to let go. That's when my breath ceased, and I realised who I was holding. I quickly opened my eyes and pulled away. Nicklaus's eyes were on me the whole time, and he smiled at me. My cheeks reddened, and I was feeling embarrassed. I shifted my gaze from him and looked at the other room.Nicklaus smiled, and his eyes sparkled in the morning sun. He looked so handsome and perfect—like a model.“
Elena’s POV:My jaw dropped, and the words couldn't come out of my mouth. “What? Jealous of what?” I asked, chuckling lightly and trying to shake it off. Nicklaus smiled and bit his lower lips. “Jealous because other ladies would see your husband’s sexy body?” He asked, his voice filled with sarcasm. I scoffed, fixing my gaze back at him. “Why would I be jealous? Does it look like I am jealous?” I asked, crossing my arms on my chest.I walked to sit in the dining room. “Don't think so highly of yourself, Nicklaus,” I said, and immediately I kept mute. I couldn't believe I had just called him by his first name. My eyes fell on his arms. He was putting on a shirt, and he rolled the sleeves. They looked so good, but I managed to drift my eyes away from him to the other side of the room. “Well, other ladies stared at my broad chest from afar, and I could tell they admired me,” he said.“Good for them. You should know you are married, so stop exposing yourself to other ladies. I have a
Elena’s POV:I walked outside to the beach with the breeze caressing my skin and the hot rays from the sun resting on my skin. I could feel the soft sand under my feet as I walked along the shore. This is just what I needed. My space from this whole marriage drama.I moved out of our private spot and found a quiet and open spot that was away from the crowds. I watched the beautiful water as the waves washed over my feet. I sat there, deep in thought. I couldn't help but think about all that I had gone through in three days. My life changed in just one day, and now I have to get used to it for the rest of my life.Now I am stuck with this ruthless billionaire who thinks highly of himself for the rest of my life. I don't know how to deal with this. I have never made any decisions of mine since I was born. I wish I could make my choice before coming into the world; I wouldn't have chosen to be in my family. I have always dreamt of becoming an international chef, breaking the world reco
Elena’s POV:I didn’t know what I was doing again. All I know is that I have been feeling something very strong for Nicklaus, a strong desire that I couldn't control, and I just allowed myself to live in the moment. I felt a shiver in my limbs as he spoke. “I want you,” I said, leaning closer to him. My eyes moved from his piercing dark eyes down to his lips as he bit them involuntarily.I couldn't deny how I felt at that moment. I wanted to kiss Nicklaus and feel his touch. He just confessed that he wanted it as well. The rain poured heavily on the beach, and the sound was deafening. I leaned in and planted a kiss on his lips without hesitating. Something I never imagined I could do. His lips were so soft and desirable. Nicklaus backed away; his eyes widened, but I placed my hands on his jaw and pulled him close to me. He wrapped his hands around my neck and pressed his lips against me. This time around, the kiss was deeper and more passionate. I could feel every bit of him.I hel
