Chapter 71 - Seventy-one : Revenge Is Best Served Bitter
Note : Steamy scene ahead
Maya's POV
It seems I've failed to understand Niklaus once more , cause this man wasn't absolutely kidding when he said he was going to give me a massage.
" Nik " I gasped when he kissed my neck, sending delicious shivers down my spine.
"Shhhh, stay back and enjoy " He whispered against my skin and began to nibble at that sensitive spot between my neck and shoulder sending a whirlpool of pleasure surging through my veins.
My heart stepped up pace and I found myself arching to meet him but he pushed me back before his lips came down hard on mine. I surrendered to him passionately and thought I had actually gone to heaven and returned.
Suddenly his hand slipped under my shirt and my eyes snapped open at once and began its questioning
"W-what are you - "
"The massage remember? " He said with his usual dry, wicked smile and twinkling eyes that spoke of expectation.
Almost immediately his fingers began to caress my stomach while his lips started down my neck and I thought I was going to die from the intense pleasure rocking my body.
"Nik " I moaned but he ignored me and instead began to work at the muscles in my back and God, that felt good.
He would gently massage the muscles in my back and sides while tactically letting his fingers brush across my bosom teasing me in the process , but reality always knows how to break the spell.
I screamed and hid beneath Nik's body when the door was suddenly pushed open and through a space in Nik's embrace saw Izzy freeze in the doorstep and next we knew, she hightailed it out of the room.
I stared at Nik shocked " You didn't lock the door? "
"I thought I did but I guess I was much distracted than I thought " Came his absentminded answer cause his eyes was fixed somewhere else - my bosom.
Exasperated, I pushed him away and he fell back to the bed with a wry smile on his lips.
"I'm serious here Niklaus, we must have traumatized the poor girl " I insisted and climbed out of the bed while straightening my wrinkled clothes and dishevelled hair.
But contrary to my expectation, Niklaus burst into a long, hard, scorning laughter that made my frown deepen into a huge scowl.
I wrapped my arms across my chest " What's so funny? "
"No -" But humour wouldn't let him be cause he burst into another round of body shaking laughter until I grabbed the nearest pillow and hit him with it.
"I'm serious here Nik " I said sternly but nothing changed, he was still laughing hard while holding his stomach .
Vexed, I lifted the pillow and was about to hit him with it again when he suddenly grabbed my hand and tugged me towards him and I fell right into his open arm.
"It would sound more convincing if you told me Isabelle was giving birth than being traumatized " He said, his burning gaze boring into mine while his hands on my waist wandered aimlessly.
"She's just a kid Niklaus " I murmured, my eyes fixed on his face and I gulped because I was currently kneeling on either side of his laps on the bed , while my arms were wrapped around his neck to keep myself from falling.
"She's more than a kid " He countered, pressing me further against his body.
"We did something inappropriate in front of her and we're going to go downstairs and apologize to her period " I insisted, resisting the urge to surrender to the warmth his hands on my body.
He said nonchalantly "It's not my fault she banged into my room and saw something - "
"She wouldn't have seen if the door was properly locked " I interjected and pressed my lips firmly together against his lips as he tried to gain entrance .
He chuckled but I knew I just excited him the more cause Niklaus was someone who derives satisfaction from a good challenge.
"That still doesn't move me " He said and his hand moved to the inside of my thigh and my breath hitched , this guy !
Our eyes met and held, he knows what he was doing to me and it was slowly becoming a game to him. On my own side, the closeness of his chest and feel of his thigh against my skin was making my heart go pit-a-pat
"You're going to drag your ass downstairs and we are going to apologize to our daughter" I hissed at him, hoping I appeared as ferocious as I imagined in my head.
He raised a brow " Our daughter? " His lips curled up " I like the sound of that cause it makes me wonder how many more daughters we could make " He said as his hand moved further up my thigh.
I gasped, my hand unconsciously tightening around his neck " Nik , stop fooling around else - "
" Else what? " He challenged.
"Else, I won't let you near me for a week " came my reply that wasn't one hell convincing at all.
"Really, Is that a threat? " there was an excited gleam in his eyes and I swallowed, what have I gotten myself into?
"Ye-" I was about to say when his hand suddenly moved further up and rubbed that particular sensitive spot below, tilting the linen blocking his entrance to the side.
I slumped against his chest the moment the intense pleasure rippled through me while my breath came in gasps as his fingers continued to move down below .
But just as I was close to coming, he stopped and withdrew his hand and said to me "You were saying? "
"W-what ?" I asked, face flushed and confused while my breath rate was totally off the chart.
A smug smile curled up his lips " Let's go down and apologize to Izzy " He said, dropped a full kiss on my lips and moved out of the bed while I stood frozen like a statue.
What just happened? I asked my senses which flew out of the window moments ago , to no avail.
Thankfully, my senses gradually returned but my eyes widened in shock, Did Niklaus just tease me?
I would definitely skin that guy alive but that would be after I calm down - I was so aroused I could hardly move - my muscles was tensed and my breathing so fast that I lay back on the bed, frustrated.
Nik stood at the entrance, leaning against the door frame and staring at me with an amused and self-satisfied expression on his face.
After a few minutes of internal struggle with my body, I got off the bed and walked past Niklaus without looking or saying a word to him ; Since I can't defeat him in bed, I've decided the silent treatment approach.
"Are you angry?" He goaded me as I climbed down the stairs but I ignored him until I got to the kitchen where I saw Amanda discussing something with Izzy.
" Hi Amanda, can I speak with Izzy for a while? " I requested and Amanda nodded and obliged me by leaving
"Hey , Izzy " I waved as soon as she turned to face me with this expressionless look on her face aka Nik's usual poker face. It was so uncanny how two different beings could pull off the same expression flawlessly.
"What? " She asked, arms folded across chest
"I'm sorry about what you saw earlier and I promise it would never happen again. So we cool? " I asked, but honestly didn't expect a positive reply in return.
But Izzy seems to be full of surprises.
" Sure " She said with a shrugged
"You sure? " I blinked , wondering if this was another of her trap.
"Of course, you're my future mommy, so what I saw was expected " came her answer which sounded surreal to me.
I pursed my lips in thought but decided to wave the doubt away. Since Izzy has said so, I should simply take it that way then. Then I looked back and with my eyes gestured Niklaus to come and render his own apology.
Thankfully, he obeyed willingly while I went inside the kitchen to get a drink.I was about to grab a soft drink from the fridge when my eyes captured Nik's coffee resting on the counter untouched.
I grinned mischievously, betting he would be so pissed off after discovering I drank his coffee - revenge is best served cold.
So I grabbed the coffee and out of the corner of my eyes saw Izzy furiously turning her head from side to side as if saying no to whatever I was doing, but it was already too late ; I had already chugged half the contents down my throat.
