All Chapters of Echoes of Betrayal: The Billioanire’s Regret: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

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.

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: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 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

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
