His BEAUTIFUL ADDICTION

Ba Dum

Tiana was putting on a short gown and her legs were exposed as she lay on the couch. Nicklaus brows creased as he took in the sight;

Why is she wearing something as tiny as that when it is so cold? She is shivering, but she can't even wear some sweater?

Nicklaus thought for a moment before going closer to her, but he heard something that made his leg freeze at a spot;

''Mommy… mommy… please, don't leave, I beg you… ''

His whole body froze as he heard her whimper. Her face was pale, and she was covering her ears with her hands;

''Mommy… ''

She cried again, a tear trickling down her eye and dropping on her hand. Nicklaus did not understand what was happening. Was her mom dead?

He stood at a spot unable to move for good five minutes before he walked closer and squatted in front of her, he stared at her, not knowing what to do; he had not been in such situation before.

After much contemplation, he raised his hand to her face, and pushed some hair which was sticking to her face to the back of her ear. He thought for a moment, then he tried comforting her,

''It is okay now… it'll be alr…''

Before he could complete his sentence, Tiana leapt from the couch and threw herself into his arms.

''Mommy, please don't leave me again… I've missed you so much… ''

Nicklaus body hairs stood straight as her body fell on him. His heart started racing at an uncontrollable pace.

''Mommy… why are you not saying anything? ''

Nicklaus was kicked out of his daze when he heard her tiny voice again. She snuggled herself deeper into his neck as her tears dropped on him. Nicklaus gulped; his face flushed red.

He was not expecting that at all. What should he do? Almost immediately, a thought entered his mind and he raised his hand and patted on her back.

''It is okay, I'm here now. '' he said calmly, patting softly on her back. If she was calling him mom, that means she thought he was her mom, so he would say what she wanted to hear.

"'Mommy, I missed you so much, why did you leave me? Why? ''

Tiana cried as she hugged Nicklaus tighter.

Nicklaus ears stood erect when he felt softness on his chest; Tiana was alone at home so she did not wear any bra, thus when she hugged Nicklaus closer, her breasts caressed his chest.

Nicklaus gulped hard as his already racing heart almost jumped out of its place. His breath became ragged, and he tried controlling his emotions.

This woman… What is she doing to me?

He took in a deep breath, controlling the blood surging to his groin.

''Mommy… '' Tiana called again, and he quickly forced a reply;

''I'm… sorry for leaving you. I will not leave you ever again. ''

His voice hoarse as he evened his breath; ''Really?'' she asked anxiously and Nicklaus nodded; ''really''

Tiana smiled and stopped crying, her brows easing.

Nicklaus waited a moment. When he felt her breath even, he raised his hand to release her grip on his neck, but her hold on him was strong. He sighed as he thought for a moment; seeing that she was cold already, he figured he should carry her to her room and tuck her into her blankets, so he put his arms under her legs and lifted her up from the couch. Tiana snuggled deeper into him as her arms wrapped around his neck firmly.

Her body was light, and her thighs were very soft…

Nicklaus started having wild thoughts, but he quickly pushed it to the back of his mind. He shouldn't be thinking of her thighs when she was unconscious.

Kicking the thoughts away, he walked quietly to her room, pushing open the door, he carried her to the bed and laid her calmly on the bed, but when he tried to stand up from the bed, her grip did not ease. His brows creased worriedly;

Was he going to stay here with her? She was in a trance now, thinking him to be her mom, when she finally woke up and saw him. What would she think?

Nicklaus didn't want her feeling bad about what she did, so he tried to ease her grip on his neck, but Tiana started crying again.

''Mommy, please don't go… '' His hands froze when he heard her, his eyes staring at her expression. She looked sad as she pleaded with him. Her mom must be dead for her to be this sad, remembering that her father who owed him had died too; he realized she was an orphan.

She was an orphan, and he had maltreated her so much.

What kind of person was he? Nicklaus felt his heart squeeze tightly and his hand which were trying to pull hers away eased and he slowly lay beside her on the bed, letting her hug him.

This was the first time she had been this close to him. Although she was not in her right mind, Nicklaus felt his heart race. She placed her head on his chest as she slept like a baby with a smile on her face. Nicklaus watched her closely.

This was the closest he has been to her; she was so beautiful up close. Her lashes were long and her face was perfect. Her hair sprawled on his chest and some on her face; he raised his hand and pushed them to the back of her ear.

As he watched her, he didn't feel like leaving again. He wished it was real, that she was wholeheartedly hugging him like her life depended on it, but he knew it was just a mirage and if she woke up, she would flinch if she saw him.

He caressed her face with his fingers. It was so soft. He traced her cheeks, down to her jawline. His eyes flickered over her lips and he gulped. His mind replayed the scene in the swimming pool and his heart, which was almost calm started racing again. Just at that moment, as though she was sent to end him, she licked her lower lips softly.

'Oh God…' Nicklaus groaned internally. His body heating up again; he tried to look away from her lips but he couldn't bring himself to. Does she want to kill him before his time?

Nicklaus gulped. He didn't want to be a sleaze, kissing her against her will. Although he had felt her lips in his mouth before, he couldn't define that as a real kiss, because it wasn't intentional. He had not felt like kissing a woman before in his entire life, except now. Why was he having all these carnal desires now? Could what the doctor said be true? Was he really falling for her?

Ba Dum!

Ba Dum!

Ba Dum!

Nicklaus could hear his heart pounding against his ribcage; his whole body was alerted as he stared at the woman on his body. The first woman he had ever held in his arms.
