Echoes of Betrayal: The Billioanire’s Regret Chapter 14
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.“
Echoes of Betrayal: The Billioanire’s Regret Chapter 16
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
Echoes of Betrayal: The Billioanire’s Regret Chapter 18
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

Nicklaus’ POV:I lay on my back to catch my breath, and I freed Elena from my body weight, planting kisses on her forehead.She placed her hand on my chest and rested her head on my body. I felt nervous at her touch, so I tried to move away. “I have never liked to cuddle,” I said, my chest ringing and falling rapidly. Her touch was putting me on fire. I was beginning to feel connected to her. It was making me burn for her.She still placed her hand on my chest. “There is always a first time. Don't you like it?” She asked, and her voice was low and husky. I knew she was not going to give up like that. I allowed her to touch my chest, and I slowly relaxed.I looked at her, “Do you like it? How do you feel?” I asked, fixing my eyes on hers as if I were trying to read her thoughts. “How are you feeling right now?”She took a deep breath. “I am a bit sore,” she confessed. My eyes were filled with concern, and I placed my hand on her waist. “I am so sorry. I tried my best to be gentle on

Elena’s POV:I woke up from my slumber and slowly opened my eyes in the morning to find myself cuddled up with Nicklaus. His arms were wrapped tightly around his waist. His body was so warm.My gaze landed on his face, and I noticed all of his perfect features.His soft lip and pointed nose, his curly and thick hair, and his jaw were clenched. How could someone be this handsome even in his sleep? He looks perfect.The memories of what happened last night flooded my mind. I could remember standing in the rain, kissing, and making passionate love in this room.My cheeks reddened with embarrassment, and for a moment, I lay silently, trying to process what happened between us and how I would get myself out of his grip. I knew I had to play my part in the marriage by giving him an heir, but never did I ever think of both of us making love so passionately. I raised my eyes and looked at Nicklaus, who was still fast asleep. He looked peaceful, but I knew that it would not take long for him

Elena’s POV:“Thank you,” I managed to talk my way out of the awkward situation. I walked to the dining area with my heart still pounding. I felt a little relieved.I perceived the nice aroma of the freshly cooked meal and the nice coffee. I could also perceive the scent of the local delicacies that were arranged on the table. I have always loved trying new meals, and I love local delicacies.Nicklaus joined me shortly after he had his bath. His hair was curly, and his eyes sparkled. He was putting on a blue shirt with a white inner and a blue shirt.We dug into our meals and enjoyed the nice flavours. They all had different and unique tastes, and I enjoyed the fresh ingredients. “My assistant had arranged our activities for the day,” Nicklaus said.My face lit up immediately. “That's great. I have been looking forward to exploring.” I spoke excitedly. Nicklaus grinned mischievously. "First up, we have a couple of spa dates. Massages, facials, etc. We deserve some pampering after

I wish I fekt his presence in my life. After a while, Anna joined me and she held my hands gently. “Williams, your father was a good man. You shouldn't blame him for what happened.

Find a place in your heart to forgive him,” she spoke.She exhaled deeply and continued, “I also need you to forgive me Elena even though I knew that I shouldn't have gave you up but I couldn't give you the life that you needed. I wanted you to have everything in the world. I was dying in poverty. You were sick Elena. That was the only way I could restore your health,” she explained and tears rolled down her eyes.

Elena’s POV:I knew that I could keep concealing the truth fromNicklaus. It had already been confirmed. Nicklaus had the right to know. This is the best time to let him know. Tears rolled down my eyes, and I was not able to control them. "Yes, Nicklaus, Jason is your son,” I confessed, my voice cracking hard. Nicklaus was stunned, and he looked at me deeply in the eyes. “Why? Why did you keep it away from me? After all these years,” he asked, tears streaming down his face. I crossed my arms across my chest and sniffed, “Well, yes. I had to protect my son. I had to protect you from people like Sarah. You abandoned me. What would you have me for Nicklaus?” I spoke as he continued to sob.Tears rolled Nicklaus’s eyes, and he became emotional. He quickly found a spot to sit in so that he would catch his breath.“I had the right to know about it, Elena. Why did you keep such from me?” he asked.“I...” I began to stutter.

Nicklaus’s POV: My eyes widened, and I was stunned. That was when I knew that something was fishy. I checked the birthmark and mine, and it was exactly the same and in the same position.“This has got to be a joke,” I muttered silently. “Could it be? Could it be that Jason is my son?” I asked, but I shook my head and tried to brush it off. My blood and his blood were compatible. He is 5 years old. The exact time Elena and I divorced.Could it be that Jason is my son?” I asked myself the question repeatedly all night long. I didn't even get enough sleep. I remembered how he would smile at me. His eyes and his smile were similar to mine. His black curly hair. Noe, everything is beginning to make sense.If Jason is my child, why did Elena decide to keep it away from me? I kept wondering. I couldn't wait for the day to break so that I would confront Elena.Everything is beginning to reveal itself. I have to get to the root of this. I watched as Jason slept, and I made sure that he was

I blinked my eyes open to see myself on the hospital bed. “Where is my baby?” I asked.“You have to calm down, Elena. The police are everywhere searching for Wave right now. We will get a positive reply in no time,” he said calmly. I shook my head and struggled with him to leave my hand as I got out of bed. “No, I can't sit here while my son is taken away from me; I have to find him. I am sure Sarah took my child,” I shouted.Nicklaus and Sam walked up to me and said, "Please Elena. Let's get home and wait for the authorities. You have to trust me on this, I assure you. We will find your son,” Nicklaus spoke, and I became calm instantly.“How can I go home when my boy is missing?” I cried out.I held onto Nicklaus, and my head rested on his chest as I sobbed. “I want my boy,” I cried out.Nicklaus stroked his hands through my hair. “He will be found; you have to trust me,” he spoke. “I don't want to go home.

I was breathing very hard as I drove with tears in my eyes.Elena really hurt me, and blood was coming out of my lips. She punched me really hard. I drank off as I wiped my lips. I wish I had completed my mission in killing Nicklaus. I planned to run away with his money and go far away. It would have been a silent deal, and he would have shut up for like. But right now, I am in trouble. He would not keep quiet. He would expose me and tell the world everything that he had found out.I have to go far away. Very far away, where nobody would be able to find me. I will make sure I execute my plans there. After what felt like forever, I arrived at the house and broke into Nicklaus safe.

You are a social climber, Elena. “Sarah, not now. I had already signed the divorce papers. You have to play your own part,” Nicklaus spoke.She walked up to me and gave me a daring look. “You are a scumbag,” she spoke and turned to Nicklaus. “I will make sure you pay for it,” she warned and walked out of the room.“I have to go be with my dad right now. I will see you later,” I said and walked out of the room. I walked to my father’s room to see my father lying weakly on the bed. I ran to him, “Fat
