Elena’s POV:
“Nicklaus,”
I quickly turned around to see Nicklaus standing behind me. My eyes widened, and I was shocked.
His eyes were dark, and his jaw was clenched. I wondered how he found me here and how long he had been here.
I took a deep breath, and he walked up to us while smoking a cigarette. His eyes were fixed on Alex, and he spoke, “I don't know who you are, Mister, but you should know that this lady here is married."
“My apologies; I didn't intend to cross my boundaries,” Alex said calmly.
“Nicklaus, what are you doing here?” I asked, fixing my gaze on him.
“Trying to find your missing ass, but it turns out you are having a good time with some guy. I got my ass up in the street to look for you.” He spoke, his voice rising.
“Nicklaus, it's not what you think. I will explain everything on our way back,” I said.
“Don’t fucking bother about that. I know what I saw,” he said and walked away.
“Alex, I will see you some other time. I need to go now,” I said, walking away from him.
“Should I walk up?” he asked.
“No, please,” I said, following Nicklaus from behind. I got into the car and closed the door. The driver started moving.
I turned to Nicklaus; his eyes were fixed on the road. “Nicklaus, in sorry. I didn't mean to disappear just like that.”
“Who is he? Why were you with him the whole day?” he asked calmly as he puffed his cigarettes.
“He is a childhood friend. We bumped into each other, and we decided to catch up for some time when the paparazzi surrounded me, and he helped me hide.” I explained
“Why does he want to still hang out with you?” he asked
I became numb; I didn't know what to say at that moment.
“Can't you speak again?” He asked calmly, his eyes still fixed on the road.
“Did you both kiss?” he asked,
His question made me feel sick; I didn't want to answer his question. He kissed me on my neck, but I can't tell him.
“Kiss where?” I asked
“It's a yes or no question. Damn it,” he spat, his voice rising.
“No, we didn't kiss,” I said. I guess some things are better left unsaid.
He didn't say a word. After a short while, we arrived at the house, and the driver parked in front of the building.
Nicklaus broke the silence. “You are lying to me. I saw him kiss you on the neck,” he said. His face was blazing red with anger.
My jaw dropped, and I stuttered. “Nicklaus, please, there is a lot to explain,” I said.
“Do you always let men kiss you on the neck?” he asked.
“No, Nicklaus. It was a harmless kiss. I just bumped into him because I needed space away from this house, some time to think,” he said, trying to explain himself.
“Your space with another guy. I see,” he said, speaking and walking out of the car.
I got out of the car and followed him: “You left me alone for two weeks; I was here on my own. Nobody to console me.” I shouted, but Nicklaus just walked upstairs. I followed him into our bedroom and shut the door behind me.
“Just when I thought things would get better after we made love that night, you left,” I yelled, my voice trembling.
“Nicklaus!” I yelled.
“I cannot believe you will do that just when I leave for two weeks and you just lost my child,” he said.
“It wasn't my fault, Nicklaus,” I responded, my anger rising.
He walked up to me and fixed his eyes on me. His eyes lived down to my lips, and I couldn't help but stare back at him.
He quickly leaned in and pressed his lips against mine. He kissed me hard, and I kissed him back too. The only kiss I ever wanted was his. I didn't feel anything when Alex kissed me on the neck, but I felt a spark as Nicklaus kissed me.
He cupped my face with his hands as the kiss intensified. I wanted more, so I kissed him too, with my hands on his shoulders.
He pushed me slowly against the wall and used his hands to caress my tit. I moaned softly as his hands reached my nipples. It felt so good that I didn't want him to stop.
Nicklaus’s POV: I woke up very early in the morning to see Elena lying on my chest. Her chest was rising and falling, and her breath was steady. She slept so peacefully, and I admired her beauty. My eyes were fixed on her, and I remembered all the happy moments we shared, but I also remembered the bad parts. All the allegations that were laid on her, and I didn't know what to feel again. I slowly removed her from my chest and laid her on the bed. I rolled out of bed silently, hoping not to make any noise. I got into the bathroom and took a bit of a of a shower. I allowed the warm water to cascade down my body. I have been so stressed lately, and I need warm water to make me feel relieved. As I closed my eyes, I remembered how I made life at Elena's last night. I still have a soft spot for her, but I cannot trust her. I have never allowed any woman to distract me before in my life. All my life, I have been thinking about making money and becoming the richest. I don't even know ho
Elena’s POV:I was hurt, and my heart was left broken as I remembered the hurtful words my husband just said to me. He only wants an heir, and he doesn't care about anything anymore. He doesn't care about all the moments we shared or the bond we built. Tears filled my eyes and started rolling down my cheeks, and I started sobbing. My heart was heavy, and my chest was hurting.After a few hours of crying, The sun had risen, and everywhere was bright. I gathered the strength to sit upright and catch my breath. With a frustrated sign, I got up from the bed and got into the shower. I looked at my reflection in the mirror, my puffy eyes, and my red nose when I noticed the expensive diamond necklace that Nicklaus had gifted me after our honeymoon on my neck. Out of anger, I wanted to take it off my neck and get rid of it, but something stopped me. I paused, and I left it here. I turned on the hot shower, and the hot water cascaded down my skin, and I scrubbed my body very well. I could s

Sarah’s POV:I woke up very early, when the sun had not risen, and dressed in black trousers and a black jacket. My hair was packed into a sleek bun. I grabbed my car keys and walked downstairs. Ever since I noticed that Nicklaus doesn't stay at his house most of the time, I have been stalking him and watching his every move.He had been called earlier and threatened to call off the deal with my father’s company if the allegations about Elena were true. I have to know where Nicklaus is before I do my part to go see him. After a short drive, I arrived at the estateI turned off my car engine and sat in there alone. I lit my cigarettes and kept puffing to see if Nicklaus would come out of the house. After a few moments, I heard the iron gate and an SUV zoom out of the house. At that point, I knew it was Nicklaus since I saw him arrive at the house at night in this same car. I quietly followed him without making it look suspicious. It was a long drive, and after a while, he arrived a
Nicklaus’s POV:I walked into my office in the early hours of the morning and sat in my chair. I let out a sigh and rested my back on the chair. I placed my hand on my face and covered my face while I thought about everything that had been happening. I can't believe it has been two weeks since I woke up in bed with Sarah. I couldn't figure out how she got in there, but I fired all of the security guards in charge that night. I have not even gathered the courage to look at Elena's face. One thing I am not sure of is making love to Sarah that night.****FlashbacksI stirred on the bed, and my head began to pound immediately. I tossed on the bed and let out a frustrated groan with my hands in my head. “Oh no. I had a lot to drink,” I muttered to myself. I noticed something lying close to me, and I quickly opened my eyes. My eyes widened when I saw Sarah lying beside me. I looked around to see our clothes on the floor, which even made me more confused. I turned to look at Sarah. How
Sarah’s POV:I opened my eyes wide open, and it was already daybreak. I didn't realise that I had slept for so long that it was almost afternoon. I instantly felt weak and nauseous. I slowly stretched my body and walked into the bathroom. I smiled when I remembered the reason I was feeling nauseous. I had an intimate moment with Tyler, my lover, a day after I lured Nicklaus to bed with me. Even if he didn't touch me that night, he was too drunk, and now he couldn't remember if he did. I turned on the shower and enjoyed the warm water as it cascaded down my body. I hummed and danced in the shower. I washed my hair and scrubbed my body before stepping out of the shower. My door was swung open, and my mother walked in. She was already dressed and was ready to go out. “Did you sleep well, Sarah?” she asked while walking into my closet. I turned to her and grinned widely. “Yes, I slept well.” I spoke and nodded my head. She fixed her eyes on me and narrowed her eyes as if she were try
Elena’s POV:I walked to the rooftop with my gym wear, and I sat on a fluffy rug. I needed sunlight, and I also resumed some exercises and meditation. To get better and see if there would be a chance of me getting pregnant again. I waited for Zoey’s arrival. She is like the sister and family that I never had. She is so caring. It's been two weeks since my fight with Nicklaus, and I have not even set my eyes on him. I had been trying so hard to be fine, but it was almost impossible. My husband and I always promised each other to be there for one another and not let anything come to separate us. We were like best friends, but now we have turned into strangers. Zoey always made sure she was there for me and kept me from thinking so much about it. I had also been stressing myself and hoping to get pregnant soon for Nicklaus, but I don't think it will happen anytime soon. I have been on a diet and exercising properly just to see that it works, but one needs enough sex to get pregnant,
Sarah’s POV:I quickly walked upstairs into the hallway when I heard voices coming from downstairs. My father and Elena are at it again. It seems they are both exchanging words, and I couldn’t care less about it.I increased my pace while I tiptoed so that I wouldn't be caught. I just needed to do what had brought me here without anybody suspecting me. Deep down, I was excited that things were getting heated down there. I hoped it would last to buy enough time for myself. Now I have to make use of this opportunity, so I hastened my steps and hurriedly stepped into Elena's room. I walked into Nicklaus’s room, but somehow the room was empty. I looked around, but I didn't see a trace of Elena’s stuff. I couldn't understand what was going on. Had she moved out of their room already? That would be a question for some other time. I quickly moved out and opened the different rooms when I found where Elena's stuff was. I realised that Elena and Nicklaus's marriage had taken a different turn
