Trouble in Paradise (Arianna and Nicholas) novel Chapter 602

Everything in Coral Villa remained unchanged. I hadn't been forgetful to that extent. I still remembered those days when I stayed by Nicholas' side, feeling at peace with it all.

At that time, I thought, "What's the big deal if I stay with him for the rest of my life?"

We had already found some kind of balance between us. In a situation where both of us acted freely, we still managed to live together. The relationship was delicate, but not entirely unacceptable.

Looking back, who among us didn't have our own selfish motives? Some things happened impulsively back then, but now it was impossible.

Suddenly, I felt a strong pressure on the back of my head, and in the next second, a handsome face quickly filled my vision. Nicholas lowered his head and kissed me.

I was stunned by the wet warmth of his lips. I didn't even react at first. I even had no idea why this kiss was happening...

I pushed against his chest, trying to break free. But he easily held both of my wrists. With his eyes closed, he kissed me deeply, ignoring my struggles.

For a moment, all that was left between us was the ambiguous sound of swallowing.

His body pressed against mine, and soon we were both sweating. He was like a wolf, exploring uncharted territory, only focused on going deeper, further...

His movements were both dominant and lingering.

It had been years since we'd been that intimate. The long-suppressed desire was easily stirred by his touch. My vision blurred, and I could barely breathe from the intensity of the kiss. Before long, my limbs started to feel weak.

He liked to kiss while his thumb gently massaged the soft flesh between my earlobe and neck, knowing exactly where the "switch" was. As long as he indulged me there, he could get whatever he wanted.

Along with the desire came fear. His familiar touch made everything feel as if it had happened yesterday.
