A Second Chance at Forever (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 700

Bernard abruptly halted and glanced towards the front entrance, then immediately—

He shifted his gaze, lowered his head, and kissed Eleanor's lips, continuing to do so without a care.

Eleanor thought he would answer the door but completely ignored whoever was outside.

She just had to push him away while passionately kissing her neck.

"Go open the door!"

"Hold on."

Even if it was someone significant at the door, he would get it on first!

He scooped her up in one fell swoop with one hand supporting her waist.

Eleanor found herself pinned on the soft couch.

He grabbed her hand and placed it on his belt.

"Help me undo this."

Eleanor nodded, "You're still injured; don't do anything too strenuous."

Bernard was already raring to go, and her words only served to fan the flames of his desire.

He tightened his grip on Eleanor's hand somewhat impatiently, looking at her with desire-filled eyes.

"A little bit of action can help soothe the injury... Darling, are you sure you won't help me?"

Every word he spoke was clear and distinct. His words were like magic, making the heart flutter.

Eleanor turned her head away and shook her head firmly.

"No."

It wasn't because she was playing hard to get; she was worried about him being too intense.

She couldn't control herself and would end up scratching his back. If she accidentally hit his wound...

The thought alone was painful. She cared about him and didn't want him to get hurt. She was also afraid of disappointing him by refusing him.

After all, today was their first official marriage day, when they became lawful husbands and wives. But he was injured, and as his wife, she had to consider him.
