His Beautiful Addiction

It was Mid April; she wasn't sure how the weather would be London, so she ran back to the bed and picked up her phone, browsing about the weather.

Oh, very rainy…

She mumbled in her head before walking back to the wardrobe. She didn't like rainy days, her mom had died on a rainy day. That night was very dreadful and although she was almost forgetting it, she always remembered it when there was a storm; she pulled herself away from the thoughts as she concentrated her eyes on the closet.

When she was released from the dark room and given that room, the wardrobe was already stuffed with wears, ranging from underwear to work clothes to foot wears. Some of them were her size, while the others were not exactly.

She just made do with some clothes for the meantime. Her clothes back home were a little shabby, and given that she had begun work, she could not wear them. Although she wasn't glad about it, she didn't have a choice but she would surely pay for them when she gets her first pay.

She didn't want to be in any debt to Nicklaus. Not even a tiny piece of debt!

Shrugging, she started ransacking the wardrobe for clothes, and foot wears. In about five minutes, she had piled the couch with a lot of them;

''Humph! '' She sighed lightly, pursing her lips as she stared at the pile, they were a little too much; they should be staying for days, or maybe a week, she shouldn't take a lot of clothes. Taking out a small travel bag, she put a few clothes in, making sure not to leave out her cardigan and boots.

She packed her lotion, undies, toothbrush and paste. After thinking for a while, she figured she had packed all her stuff, so she closed the bag and put the remaining clothes back into the wardrobe.

When she was through, she slumped on the bed. After the trip to London, it would be just three months left and her sister would be free. She just had to put up some more. Although she wasn't sure that she would be free, she knew that Nicklaus didn't like being disobeyed or irked, but that is exactly what she would do.

She would irk him so much that he would get bored of her and throw her away. She just have to pretend as though she was fine with everything he had done to her until the time is right, he should just wait.

After dinner that night, she walked up to his room and lightly knocked on the door.

''Come in.''

Nicklaus said as he walked into his room; the balcony was open, and he was holding a cigarette stick in his hand so Tiana figured he must have gone out to smoke.

God! She hated smokers! Her throat hitched, but she quickly eased the frown that was forming its way to her brows.

Nicklaus creased his brows as he waited for her to speak.

''I came to ask what time we will leave. ''

Coughing lightly, she said. Her eyes wavered as she tucked her lips into her mouth girlishly. Nicklaus caught her action and his eyes stayed on her lips for a moment; his mind flashed back to the pool and how supple her lips were in his mouth and he forced his eyes away, swallowing hard.

Tiana usually bit on her lower lip unconsciously, but no-one had ever told her that; and she didn't know that she looked really sexy when she did that.

He dropped the cigarette inside a trash can by the side and walked to his bed and sat down on it.

Tiana's eyes fell on a little luggage by the side and she figured he had already packed.

''We should leave by 8. am, the flight is by nine. '' he had already booked the flight earlier on when he returned from the swimming pool.

''Okay. '' Tiana nodded and turned around to leave, then suddenly she stopped;

''Oh no '' her legs stopped at a spot as she remembered something; she had been in a hurry, packing so fervently, but she had forgotten a very important detail.

''What is it?''

Nicklaus asked, his brows creased;

Tiana turned to him, her face pale.

''I think my passport is back home. '' She replied, gulping hard.

Would he tell her to stay back? She wondered. It was already past ten and her home was far from the mansion. She could not possibly go to get it by that time. Although she was glad that she would have a few days to herself without having to see his face, she was still sad that she wouldn't get to go to London anymore.

Nicklaus stared at her, thinking for a while; then he turned his head to the side and picked up his phone on the drawer.

He tapped lightly on the screen, and it came on instantly; Tiana watched him with her brows creased, wondering what he was doing. She watched him tap on the screen a few times and put the phone to his ears. After about two seconds, he said;

''Get a few men and get the car ready. ''

He spoke curtly and ended the call immediately, dropping the phone casually on the drawer.

'' ''

Tiana's eyes widened in shock; did he just call his men to take her to her home?

Her jaw fell as she stared at him unbelievably.

''When you get downstairs, tell them to take you home. ''

He said casually and raised the quilt, lying on the bed.

Tiana was still watching him; she was yet to understand what just happened.

''Is there any other thing? '' He asked, narrowing his brows. She blinked as she shook her head violently;

''No… I, I'll be going now ''

She stood outside his room, shocked. He could have easily ordered Fredrick to get ready or maybe left without her. Why would he tell her to go fetch her passport so late in the night?

It was not as though she was perfect in the job, she was still a novice.

She scratched her head as she walked down the stairs, wondering what Nicklaus had up his sleeves.
