Married To A Powerful Domineering Billionaire

Chapter 40: Fulfilling Wish One



FULFILLING WISH ONE

RAYNE’S POV

“But we didn’t come with any clothes.” I reminded him. He had taken me unawares and had only told me we were on a trip after we had arrived in the country.

“That has been taken care of already.” He said, handing me a carton paper bag. I glanced between him and the bag before collecting it from him.

I stared at the set of panties in a small Victoria’s Secret paper bag and I felt my cheeks heat up instantly.

“How did you know my size?” I asked looking up at his smirky face. I know we had slept together before but that wasn’t enough to know my pant size, right?

The corner of his lips went up slightly, lighting up into a smile and he shrugged. “I just know it, probably because our destinies are intertwined.”

At his answer, I blushed hard and looked away. I hadn’t expected he’d say that. “I’ll go have my bath.”

“Come downstairs when you’re done.” He winked at me and then strode out of the room. I waited until he left before dashing into the bathroom. The jacuzzi in the spacious bathroom didn’t fail to grab my attention, but I jerked my eyes off it. I needed to shower quickly.

When I had finished bathing, I hurriedly dried myself, creamed my body, and started unpacking the carton bags.

Quickly, I got into the pair of fitting jean pants and a purple tee shirt with a heart-shaped drawing in front. Then I did my hair and hurried out of my room, downstairs.

ERIC’s POV

“I’m ready!”

I looked up at her jumping in excitement and for a moment I was left in a daze. I had never seen her like this before, and it warmed me to see her smiling brightly. She was wearing a pair of blue jean pants and her favorite colored tee shirt. Her hair was packed loosely in a messy bun making her look like a high school nerd, just that she didn’t have any glasses on.

“Come here,” I said to her and saw her look up at me with questioning eyes. Then she walked over, stopping a few steps away from me. I pulled her closer and heard her breath hitch as she fell into my embrace.

RAYNE’S POV

“Come here.” He said and I stared up at him. I walked to him, my heart picking up its pace as I did. And just when I thought that I was close enough, Eric pulled me into himself and my eyes widened at the suddenness. At our closeness, I could perceive the rich scent of sandalwood oozing from him into my nostrils, shutting my senses.

But, as if that wasn’t enough, I felt his hands caressing my hair and unclasping them from the hair band. My eyes fluttered close on their own accord when I felt him massaging my scalp as his fingers ran through my hair strands, untangling them. I suddenly felt the nudge to fall asleep.

I felt him park them up in a ponytail. Then he lifted my chin so I could look at him. He took a step back as if to admire his handwork and I suddenly felt the need for support.Owned by NôvelDrama.Org.

ERIC’s POV

“This is better.” He said, running his assessing eyes on my face. “Great, let’s go.” He said and pulled me gently with him.

“Where exactly are we going to, and what are we going to do?” She asked as I pulled open the car’s door for her. I could clearly hear the excitement in her small voice, and see the enthusiasm in her bright hazel eyes, making me wonder for how long she had dreamt of visiting the capital.

“It’s a surprise,” I replied curtly.

“Okay!” She said and turned to the window. I thought she wasn’t going to be asking me any more questions, but she suddenly turned to me.

“But, would there be ice creams?”

“Yes wife, there’d be ice cream.”

“How about street foods?”

“Lots of it if you want,” I replied and noticed her stifle a grin. She bit on her lower lip and then looked away. I noticed her smile as she did and I couldn’t help but smile too. Seems this was going to be lots of fun.

RAYNE’S POV

The car came to a stop on the roadside and the driver hurried to Eric’s side of the car. Eric muttered something to the chauffeur, he nodded and then turned around and helped me with my side of the door.

“Thank you,” I muttered to him and as I climbed down from the car, and got a clearer view of the city, I felt my heart leap with excitement and my mouth fell open in stunned surprise and admiration. The city of love looked to be its bubbliest and most beautiful at night. The sparkling lights from the street lamps and stores and the light French music filling the air made the scene and atmosphere even more beautiful, thrilling, and romantic. But most romantic was the lovers strolling along the seine hand in hand, laughing or playing. This was exactly how I had envisioned Fred and I when I had written my to-do list, but guess not all dreams come through. I smiled wryly and was just about looking away from them when I felt a firm, but warm large hand envelope my small one. I turned at once and glanced up at Eric.

“You’re not allowed to admire any other man when I’m with you.” He said with a slight frown, then pulled me gently along with him, “Come.”

Eric intertwined our fingers calmly glancing at me, then he pulled me with him to the other lane. Without the traffic, we crossed over to the other lane. The evening was still early, so peaceful and light-hearted, full of laughter and fun.

We made our way down a narrow street brightly lit up, and filled with shops of every kind. Plus, the music got louder as we walked deeper into the narrow street. I couldn’t help but notice everyone taking that route and I wondered why.

“Why’s everyone taking this route?” Glancing up at Eric, I asked. He looked around with a pout, then his strong gray eyes fell back on me.

“At this time every month, the natives hold a cultural festival at the square. That’s where everyone is headed.” His deep voice explaining to me sounded like an intro from a Disney movie, it was enchanting.

ERIC’s POV

“There would be ice creams and lots of street foods, right?”

I looked down at her. This was the second time she had asked this since we stepped out and I couldn’t help but wonder if that was all she cared about, food.

“How old are you again?”
