His Beautiful Addiction

Soul mate?

What did he mean by that?

Tiana didn't understand a word of what he said but she did not ask for an explanation. All she wanted was to sleep and probably wake up the next morning and pretend like all these did not happen.

''Don't worry; I won't do anything you wouldn't want. '' He continued and Tiana's brows fluttered. If only he knew what she was thinking at that moment?

She wished she hadn't yielded to his kiss, at least she could sort out her emotions, but right now, her head was in a huge mess, she couldn't even decipher if she loved him or not.

''let's go to bed now. '' Nicklaus spoke, standing up and holding her hand. Tiana felt pins and needles on her feet as she stood up, realizing she had been squatting for so long.

Nicklaus watched her lay on the bed before he lay down beside her and tucked them both into the quilt. His hand went around her waist and pulled her closer to him. Tiana held her breath until she was nestled in his arms like a little baby.

His eyes were shut and there was a beautiful smile on his lips. Her eyes fluttered as she peered at his features.

She wouldn't deny that he was very good looking, but there was a difference between being attracted to someone and being in love with them.

She pursed her lips; her eyes still gazing at him.

Although she was not sure about her feelings for him, she couldn't deny that he was irresistible.

He was the hottest guy she had ever seen. His smile, eyes, laugh, body, lips, every goddam thing about him was smoking hot.

She wouldn't blame herself for giving in to the kiss. No woman could resist those sexy lips of his.

Just at that moment, as though Nicklaus felt her gaze on him, his eyes opened and they locked in hers.

Tiana nearly fainted when she saw his eyes open, and without thinking she shut her own, her cheeks reddening.

Nicklaus grinned when he saw her cute act, but he did not stop staring at her,

Tiana waited a while and opened her eyes slowly to check if he had slept but they met his piercing gaze again, this time she shut it so fast that Nicklaus couldn't help laughing.

He pulled her close to him and pecked her forehead before he closed his eyes finally to sleep.

…

Tiana woke up the next morning to the sun seeping in through the curtains. She rubbed her eyes with the back of her hand as her eyes and stretched her legs, she tried to turn around on the bed, but she felt an arm around her waist and her brows creased, the details of last night seeping back into her mind.

A deep blush tainted her cheeks when she remembered she had kissed Nicklaus. Looking upwards, her eyes landed on his beautiful face. His eyes were still shut and his breath fanned her face faintly.

Why was he still sleeping? She turned her head and glanced at the huge clock on the wall and her brows creased;

It was past ten, and he was still sleeping?

Her lips fell in shock.

She raised her hand and waved it in front of his face and she realized he was really asleep.

Nicklaus had never woken up this late before, was he sleeping this much because of the kiss?

Tiana grinned as she mentally slapped herself for thinking so childishly.

She pulled out of her thoughts as she watched his face. He looked peaceful as he slept. 

 How could a man's lashes be this long? His lips were literally sexier than most women's.

Tiana gulped as she remembered how soft his lips felt in her mouth last night.

Contrary to what she had expected, he was very gentle, kissing her lips softy, as though relishing the taste of them. She didn't think he would be that gentle with her, but she was very grateful that he had stopped himself, because she knew if he had made any attempt to go on, she wouldn't be able to resist him.

She raised her hand to his face and traced his features with her hands,

His brows, pointed nose, lips…

Just when her fingers were about to touch his lips, she retracted her hands.

If she felt his lips, she would get wild thoughts again, and she wasn't sure if she would resist the urge to steal a kiss.

Wait… he is still sleeping!      

Tiana's brows creased as she wondered; he complained of not being able to sleep properly but here he was dozing like a log of wood.

It was already past ten, how long would he sleep for?

Tiana nudged him lightly to wake him up but Nicklaus did not budge. She exerted more force, but he did not even flinch.

Seeing that he would not wake up, she tried to release herself from his grasp but she realized that he was hugging her tightly and she could barely shift.

Her lips fell open in shock;

What the hell?

If he would not wake up at least he should let her go!

''Hey! Wake up! ''

She cried, shaking him harder, but Nicklaus wasn't even moving, if not that his chest was rising and falling she would have thought he was dead.

How long would he sleep for?

Tiana bit her lower lip as she wondered how long she would remain in that position.

Once Nicklaus closed his eyes, the previous night to sleep, he felt his body, mind and soul shut down. He slept so soundly that he didn't even dream.

He didn't want to wake up; he didn't want it to end.

He hadn't had so much rest in a long while.

After a long while of sleep, his eyes fluttered open finally.

At first he couldn't see a thing, then his sight cleared and his gaze fell on a pair of eyes, staring daggers at him.

He blinked twice and his brows creased;

He remembered that she had slept by his side,

Why was she on top of him?
