In My Mind In His World

“Weren’t you enjoying it too? Even a cat in heat outside has better self–restraint than you.” Nicholas had a smug

expression of delight after he had his satisfying release. “Well, I can’t take all the credit for that. My manhood contributed greatly too.”

He cupped my cheeks with his hands and made me look down. “Do you love me or my shaft more? Hmm?”

I snorted coyly and retaliated by biting his lip. His body tensed up immediately.

“Do you love me, Honey?” I asked with a weak laugh.

Nicholas was stunned. His gaze pierced through the murky air and landed on my face. I could sense his hesitation and instinctively hugged him tighter. His Adam’s apple bobbed as he took in my expectant but pained expression. I could tell that he felt conflicted.

I didn’t want to ruin such a tender moment. As a woman, I would feel even more unsettled when he left me hanging like this. I quickly pressed a finger against his lips.

He smirked and gently tilted his head to suck on my fingers. In the next second, he began to dominate my body. He wouldn’t let go of my fingers, so I couldn’t pull them away. I used my other hand to suppress the shameful sounds coming out of my mouth.

When it was over, he soaked me in the bathtub. Meanwhile, he

stood under the shower.

I leaned forward against the edge of the tub and reached out to pull his leg hair. Upon seeing a certain part of him, I couldn’t help but shudder slightly and turn my face away.

He kicked away my meddling hand. As the water splashed. down noisily, I strained my ears to listen to what he had to say.

“Ariana, set aside your expectations for romance. Isn’t being Mrs. Hawk enough for you? I like what you did today. If you think our sex life is lacking, I’ll do it with you whenever Claudia isn’t around.”

It was clear he was very satisfied today. His words carried a hint of humor, and he seemed to think that his gentle tone was something like a reward to me.

Yet, I found it grating. My hand that was on the edge of the tub went numb from the shock of hearing his words.

Actually, he was quite good to me. He never held back in helping my family’s company. In that regard, he had always been very generous.

He wasn’t a good husband, but he was a gentleman. He never hit me, and when we argued, he never raised his voice. He mastered the art of being infuriatingly gentlemanly.

The only time he slipped up was when he smashed the bowl the other day.

It felt as though someone had gouged a hole in my heart, and blood was pouring out from the gaping wound.

“Why wait until Claudia isn’t around? Can’t we do it when she’s around? Don’t you like how I satisfied you?” I cast aside my modesty and tried to converse with him by using his logic.This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - ©.

Since we were compatible and we liked the intimacy, why did we have to wait until Claudia wasn’t around to have sex? He cared about her so much. How could he still deny that there wasn’t anything going on between him and Claudia?

Nicholas was taken aback. He then scrutinized me as if he was seeing me clearly for the first time. He bent down to look at me with inscrutable eyes.

“Claudia is still young. She won’t be able to handle hearing your erotic cries,” he said seriously. The way he uttered those dirty words with a straight face was irresistible.

I steadied myself before voicing my request. “Can you ask Claudia to move out?”

He casually pulled me out of the tub and wrapped a towel around me. “Do you remember how many times you’ve brought up Claudia recently?”

I nodded. “As your wife, don’t I have the right to request that we have the house to ourselves only? If I can’t even have that, am I even your wife?”

My eyes stung a little as tears welled up in them. “Does Claudia always have to come between us?”

“Why not?” Nicholas asked impassively. “There’s no point in discussing this further. Don’t create unnecessary trouble.”

I laughed through my tears and realized that men could indeed separate love and sex. I thought that after wanting me

repeatedly, Nicholas might have developed some feelings for me. But he wouldn’t even lie to pacify me in bed just for a

moment.
