A Second Chance at Forever (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 265

Inside the restroom next to the VIP lounge at the airport. Eleanor just freshened up, and now she was sprucing herself up in front of the mirror. Her skin, once pale as a ghost, was now healthier, more flushed. A bit of foundation and a swipe of lipstick, and voila, she looked a whole lot livelier.

Just as she prepared to stride back towards the VIP lounge, an imposing figure appeared unexpectedly. Clad in a sleek black suit, his frosty demeanor charged the atmosphere with tension. His sculpted features and penetrating gaze made him undeniably attractive, yet his presence was undeniably intimidating.

Without uttering a word, he strode over, his face hard as stone, and grabbed her by the arm, yanking her to the door. Eleanor, snapping out of her initial shock, struggled to shake him off, but he had her in a vise grip, not giving her a chance to make a break for it.

"Bernard Laurence!" she exclaimed. She thought she had made herself clear to him, why was he still all over her like white on rice? Bernard didn't even look back, just hauled her toward the restroom door, but she clung onto the door frame, refusing to go along with him.

With a tight shut of his eyes, Bernard swallowed the anger boiling within him and turned to Aidyn outside, saying curtly, "Make sure nobody comes in." Having given his orders, he spun around, backed Eleanor against the wall, grabbed her chin, and locked his lips onto hers in a frenzied kiss.

Since Eleanor's return, Bernard had cornered her thrice. Each meeting followed a similar pattern - him asserting his dominance over her. Rage boiled within Eleanor as she attempted to resist, but his strength easily overwhelmed her. He held her wrists captive above her head, his hulking form entrapping her, as he consumed her lips with an unyielding passion.
