The Billionaire's Promise
Chapter 56: First Night

Chapter 56: First Night

Erik took his feet out of the water and lifted Aryana. Aryana was startled and let out a scream. He laid her down on the couch, cupped her face, and crushed his lips over hers. He placed one of his hands on the back of her head and deepened the kiss forcing her to open up to him. Her heart was beating wildly and was panting when he ended the kiss.

Erik brushed her lips with his thumb and smiled at her with satisfaction. He stood up and flicked a few switches located at a pillar. The path surrounding the infinity pool was illuminated by a warm yellow glow. The edge of the infinity pool became alive when water started gushing upwards.

Arayana gasped. She stared dreamily at the rushing fountain which was highlighted by a beautiful splash of lighting.

"Do you like it?" Erik asked.

"Are you kidding me? I don’t like it." Aryana paused and looked at Erik who frowned at her.

"I love it. It’s beautiful." She said and in her excitement, she hugged Erik and kissed him briefly on the lips.

Erik laughed lightly. He ruffled Aryana’s hair before reaching out to press a button at the pillar of the gazebo. Right after, two maids carrying a tray came and served the food.

"Let’s have dinner while enjoying the view."

Erik cut the steak and gave her the plate. He also poured the wine into both of their glasses.

Aryana savored her steak and enjoyed every moment of the dinner. The sound of the fountain and the scent of the candle has a calming effect. They finished the entire bottle of wine and Aryana was a little dizzy. She leaned against Erik’s chest as she closed her eyes and enjoyed the serenity of the place.

Erik liked her smell and he can’t help but run his hand through her hair.

"Yana" he whispered hoarsely. "You are so beautiful." He sat her on his lap and kissed her passionately. His desire was ignited and in the end, he cannot bear it anymore and carried Aryana back bridal style.

"Hey Erik, put me down. I can walk by myself." She protested but Erik did not listen to her. He only put her down when he reached the master’s bedroom.

"I’ll take a shower first." Aryana hurriedly went to the bathroom. Erik was grinning as he followed his new wife with his gaze. He opened the closet and took out a nightgown and underwear.

’What is taking her so long?’

He knocked on the door. "Yana, are you done?"

"Umm Erik I did not bring any clothes." She said shyly.

"Open the door. I’ll give it to you."

The door opened and Aryana’s slender hand appeared to get the stuff from Erik’s hand.

When Aryana came out, she was wearing a robe over her nightgown and a towel was wrapped around her head.

Erik chuckled. "Go dry your hair. The hair dryer is in the drawer."

Erik took a quick shower and brushed his teeth. He came out in a robe and found Aryana sitting on the edge of the bed busying herself with her cell phone.

Erik started blow-drying his hair. Aryana hesitated but in the end, she approached Erik.

"Let me help you dry your hair." She said shyly. ’You are now my husband so this should be my duty.’

Erik passed her the blow dryer and she started drying his hair. She used her fingers to comb his hair. Erik was watching her in the mirror and the corner of his lips curled up when he saw how flustered she was.

When his hair was dry, he pulled Aryana and have her straddle him. Aryana cannot bring herself to look at his face so she lowered her gaze and looked at his firm chest that was peeping through the opening of his robe.

Erik was amused at how shy she was. He placed his hand under her chin and lifted it so her gaze was locked by his. How he loved the way she looked at him and it stirred a strange feeling deep within him. With his other hand, he adjusted the lights, dimming it a little bit, and turned on the music creating a romantic vibe. It was his first night with his wife after all.

Aryana was looking into Erik’s gentle face with love. Her eyes sparkled and were brighter than usual.

"Erik, am I dreaming? If this is a dream, I don’t want to wake up anymore." She said honestly.

"Silly girl. This is not a dream. All of this is real." He said with a hoarse and deep voice. He cannot take his eyes off hers. He wanted to drown himself in that adorable gaze.

A beautiful ballad filled the air. Aryana’s gaze was held captive by Erik’s. She willed herself to look away but her body refused. She was helplessly bewitched by a pair of dark brown eyes that were looking at her with deep desire.

Erik placed his hands on her waist, lifted her, and planted her feet on the floor.

"The song is so beautiful it will be a waste if we do not dance." He placed his hands at the back of her waist and led her to sway rhythmically with the music.

... No one ever saw me like you do

All the things that I could add up too

... I never knew just what a smile was worth

But your eyes say everything without a single word

’Cause there’s something in the way you look at me

... It’s as if my heart knows you’re the missing piece

You make me believe that there’s nothing in this world I can’t be

... I never know what you see

But there’s something in the way you look at me

... If I could freeze a moment in my mind

It’ll be the second that you touch your lips to mine

I’d like to stop the clock, make time stand still

’Cause, baby, this is just the way I always wanna feel

When the song ended, Erik lowered his lips to take possession of her luscious ones. He succumbed to the desire that has started building up since the sunset. He continued to kiss Aryana while his hands were busy removing her robe, then the nightgown and her undergarments before he finally laid her on the bed.

On the night sky outside, a cumulus cloud covered the full moon for a long time. When the yellow ball finally freed itself from the white veil, a gentle breeze started blowing from the bay.

The sliding door that separated the master’s bedroom and balcony was half open. The white curtains danced gracefully with the breeze. A strong, inviting fragrance wafted through the air from the tuberose planted on a big terracotta pot on the balcony.

"Erik!" Aryana cried out in pleasure as she clasped her hands with his. She now belonged to Erik both body and soul.
