Chapter 1432

Despite his restlessness, Bernard restrained himself. Between passionate kisses, he would ease off, even using his prominent nose to nuzzle against Eleanor’s cheek, seeking her favor.

“Five more minutes of kissing, okay?” he bargained.

Eleanor, panting delicately, felt a heat coursing through her-a consequence of her pregnancy hormones, no doubt. It was a warmth that quickly turned into a blaze, rivaling even Bernard’s intensity, “You’re injured; don’t move around too much.”

She pushed him gently to lie back, but Bernard, with a swift motion, caught her wrist and then wrapped his arm around her waist. With a bit of strength, he pulled her onto his body.

He didn’t ask Eleanor for permission this time. Lifting his hand, he cradled the back of her head and pressed down, capturing her red lips once more accurately.

Amid their tumbling, Eleanor felt Bernard’s arousal against her, and the thought made her cheeks burn even redder.

Despite considering his injury and their unborn child, they didn’t take it further, but it was a lengthy entanglement nonetheless. Eleanor’s clothes were nearly ruined by Bernard’s eager hands.

“Honey,” he murmured seductively, nibbling on Eleanor’s earlobe. “I want you.”

Eleanor, feeling her resolve weakening, quickly shifted away from his sensitive touches. “You can wait.”

Bernard, trying to contain the tension in his lower abdomen, knew they could resume their intimate moments six months into the pregnancy, but with his injury, they had to wait. “Not until you’re healed,” she insisted.
