The CEO's Contractual Wife (Olivia and Alex) novel Chapter 101

Chapter 101

Alexander

I joined her on the rock ledge, water cascading in front of us, creating a private sanctuary. Droplets clung to her eyelashes and traced paths down her neck to her cleavage. Her nipples were hard beneath the wet fabric of her bikini top.

“This is amazing,” she said, her voice resonated softly within the intimate space. “Like something from a movie.”

“Thought you’d like it.”

Olivia ran her fingers through the waterfall, letting the cool water cascade over her hand. “Thank you for bringing me here, Alexander. This entire island is incredible.”

I leaned back against the rock wall, watching water droplets trace paths down her neck to the curve of her breasts. “We’ve got twelve more days to explore. There’s a lot more to see.”

“I’ve never been anywhere this beautiful,” she admitted, closing her eyes as water misted over her face. “I can’t believe we have this entire island to ourselves.”

“That’s the point of a private island. Privacy.”

She opened one eye to look at me. “Must be nice to be so rich you can just buy an island.”

“It has its perks.” I splashed water at her playfully. “We can do whatever the hell we want here. No paparazzi, no family obligations, no work emergencies.”

“We should probably plan what we want to do for the rest of our time here,” she said, pushing her wet hair back from her face.

“Later,” I said with a dismissive wave. “Let’s just enjoy this moment.”

She nodded, looking more relaxed than I’d seen her since our wedding. “You’re right. We can figure it out later.”

We sat in comfortable silence for a few minutes, the sound of the waterfall creating a peaceful backdrop. I watched Olivia’s face, noticing how her expression had softened, the usual tension in her shoulders gone.

‘Can I ask you something?” she said suddenly, turning to face me.

‘Shoot.”

“Have you ever brought anyone else here? You know, to have sex or show off your private island or whatever?”

I raised an eyebrow at her directness. “I’ve brought friends here before. Just to enjoy the island, not for sex.”

“Really?” She sounded skeptical.

“Really, I confirmed. “You’re the only woman I’ve fucked here.”

“Because I’m your wife,” she said with a small smile.

“Exactly. My wife.”

Her smile faltered slightly. “Fake wife,”

Something in my chest tightened at her words. I didn’t like the term “fake wife.” It felt wrong somehow, especially after what

we’d shared last night.

“Contractual wife, I corrected, keeping my voice neutral.

She rolled her eyes. “Same thing.”

“Yes,” I agreed, though it didn’t feel the same at all. “Same thing.”

Olivia slipped off the rock ledge into the water. “Race you to that rock over there!” she challenged, already swimming away.

I dove after her, cutting through the water with powerful strokes. Even with her head start, I caught up quickly, my longer arms and legs giving me an advantage. I reached the rock just before she did, hoisting myself up and offering her a hand.

“Show–off,” she muttered, accepting my help.

“Just naturally gifted,” I replied with a grin.

“Your ego is unbelievable.”

“Not ego if it’s true.”

She laughed, a genuine sound that echoed around us. “God, you’re impossible.”

We spent another hour swimming and exploring the area around the waterfall. Olivia discovered a smaller waterfall feeding into the main one and insisted on climbing up to see where it came from. I followed, amused by her enthusiasm.

At the top, we found a small natural pool fed by a spring. The water was warmer here, almost like a hot tub.

“This is fucking awesome,” Olivia exclaimed, sinking into the warm water with a contented sigh.

I joined her, our shoulders touching in the small space. “Not bad for a honeymoon spot, right?”

‘Not bad at all.” She tilted her head back to look at the sky visible through the canopy of trees. “Although it’s kind of wasted on a fake marriage.”

There was that word again. Fake. I frowned but didn’t correct her this time.

‘Contractual or not,” I said instead, “we might as well enjoy ourselves.”

‘Oh, I’m definitely enjoying myself.” She splashed water at me playfully. “Especially after you paid me a lot of money. That buys a lot of enjoyment.”

“That hurts my feelings,” I said, clutching my chest dramatically. “Here I thought you were enjoying my sparkling personality and massive-”

‘Don’t you dare finish that sentence,” she interrupted, laughing.

“I was going to say ‘massive wealth,” I said innocently. “What did you think I was going to say?”

“Sure you were. She rolled her eyes. “Your mind is always in the gutter.”

“Can you blame me when you’re sitting next to me in that tiny bikini? Your tits are practically spilling out.”

Olivia glanced down at her chest and adjusted her top. “It’s the bikini you bought me, remember?”

“I have excellent taste.”

“In bikinis or in contractual wives?”

“Both,” I said with a wink.

Eventually, we decided to head back to the house. The sun was high overhead now, and despite the shade from the trees, I could see Olivia’s skin starting to pink up.

“You’re getting sunburned,” I pointed out. “We should go back and get some lunch.”

She nodded, pushing herself out of the warm pool. Water streamed down her body, her red bikini clinging to every curve. My eyes followed a droplet as it traveled from her neck, between her breasts, and down her flat stomach.

“See something you like?” she asked, catching me staring.

“Just admiring the view.”

We made our way back down to the main waterfall pool, gathering our things from the rock where I’d left the backpack. I pulled out two towels, handing one to Olivia.

“Thanks,” she said, wrapping it around her waist like a skirt. “That was really fun.”

“Glad you enjoyed it.” I dried off quickly and pulled my shirt back on. “There’s a natural hot spring on the other side of the island we could check out tomorrow if you want.”

“Sounds perfect.”

We hiked back to where I’d parked the ATV. Olivia climbed on behind me, her arms wrapping around my waist without hesitation this time. The feeling of her wet bikini pressing against my back sent a jolt of heat through my body.

“Hold tight,” I warned as I started the engine.

Her arms tightened around me, her cheek resting against my shoulder blade. The contact felt surprisingly natural, like we’d been doing this for years instead of days.

The ride back to the house was faster than the journey out, and soon we were pulling into the garage. I helped Olivia off the ATV, steadying her with a hand on her waist.

“Thanks for showing me the waterfall,” she said, unwrapping the towel from around her waist. “It was amazing.”

“We’re just getting started,” I promised. “By the time these two weeks are over, you’ll have seen every inch of this island.”

She smiled up at me, her face flushed from the sun and her eyes bright with excitement. “I can’t wait.”

As we walked back to the house, I caught myself watching the sway of her hips, the way water still beaded on her shoulders. My contractual wife might be a temporary arrangement, but I was starting to think these two weeks might be more enjouable than I’d anticipated
