Taming A Billionaire

Chapter Fifty-one : You Can't Fool Me Tigress

Maya's POV

Nik evaded my attack as soon as I lunged at him, atlest he knows I'm planning to beat the crap out of him.

"Come here! " I boomed but he just shook his head, giving me a sly smile that irritated me further.

"I promise, I won't hit you hard " I tried to use subterfuge to lure him to my well thought trap but he still didn't fall for it .

"You can't fool me Tigress, not when the blood vessel in your head is about to burst " He said taking a step back.

A malevolent smirk made its appearance on my face and then I propelled forward, chasing after Nik with all my strength.

So we started running around his office which was larger than my living room like bunch of kids playing tag.

" Come back here ! " I yelled at him trying to grip him but he dodged me effortlessly.

Seriously, this guy.

This went on and on until I exhausted all my energy and had to bend, resting my hands on my knees and breathing heavily.

But that was not the case with Nik , aside from the little bead of sweat on his forehead, nothing else showed he just literally ran a relay race.

Jeez, what a stamina

"Should we continue? " He teased with this mocking smile tugging his lips and I gritted my teeth.

"You - Ahh " came my frightened scream.

I had approached Nik threateningly, ready to lash out at him when I suddenly slipped on something and started falling.

But Nik: my knight in shinning armor was there to rescue me as usual,

And unknowingly fell into my plan.

" A*shole " I hissed and starting hitting him on the shoulder while he had to let go of my waist after bringing me up in order to defend himself.

"Ouch " He cried out in pain trying to dodge my incessant attack "Are you a gangster or something? "

"Yes, I am " I retorted with blazing eyes and renewed intensity " How could you say that loud? "

"How could you say ... my.. b... "

Damn, I couldn't even say it out

" Y-you ...my... bo..." I sputtered, trying to come up with the right words to express myself

Nik was enjoying my distress, I could see it clearly on his face.

"You know what? I'm done "

I sighed a deep long breath and returned to the centre of the office, plopping down on the firm yet soft sofa exhausted.

It seems Nik didn't expect my three-sixty degree change of plan cause he stood transfixed, confusion apparent on his face.

Thankfully the sofa was long enough to accommodate my legs so I simply plump it's cushion and lay down, resting my head on the arm , while shielding my face from the room's lightening by tucking it into the crook of my arm.

A minute hardly passed by when I felt a poke on my face - no need guessing, Mr nuisance was here again.

I ignored him, instead turned my back to him but as usual Nik was persistent.

" Won't you leave me alone? you have less than three hours to finish that truckload of documents on your desk " I exaggerated, my back still turned to him.

"Are you angry at me? " he asked, reaching out to tuck my hair behind my ear but I didn't reply him and sneered instead.

Realizing I was adamant on giving him the silent treatment, he backed off or so I thought until I suddenly felt an uncomfortable yet tingling sensation beneath my feet.

No way.

My eyes flew open at once as I tried to fight off Nik who was tickling the bottom of my feet.

"No stop it! " I screamed while laughing at same time.

I tried to withdraw my leg from his hold but it was impossible, his grip was ironclad.

" Are you still mad at me? " He asked, tickling my feet so much I began to cry.

"No! " I laughed out loud , tears running down my face.

My lungs were beginning to hurt from laughing too much and I knew at once, I couldn't take anymore of his tickle attack - I would surely die.

" Please stop "

I struggled to say this time sternly and thankfully, he stopped.

Without even giving me time to recover from his trickles, he hoisted me up in his arms eliciting a startled scream from me.

Carrying me in his arms, he then sat back on the sofa and made me straddle him, sitting right on his laps.

My face blushed tomato red and I squirmed, trying to get away from him but his arms wrapped around my waist halted my progress.

"I've always dreamt about this moment from the first day I set my eyes on you " He whispered huskily into my ears causing my heart to pound against my chest.

He went on "You on my laps in my office having pure unadulterated fun "

His breath tickled my ear and I discovered how hard it was breathing.

I choked "D-don't you have work to do? "

But he chuckled in amusement " Trust me little Tigress, I can finish that in an hour thanks to your motivation " He said and out rightly ran his tongue over my lips without warning.

I stood frozen, did this guy just lick my lips?

But he didn't give me chance to make a comeback cause he demanded right away " I want you to take the initiative this time "

I stared at him dumbfounded, talking of which he was right. Aside from that time I was drugged and the challenge , I have never initiated a kiss with him ; Nik's the one always doing the job.

"Nik-"

"Shh, no complain " He hushed, pressing his middle finger against my lips " Do it " He commanded with all seriousness.

There was no escaping this one, I had no choice than to comply with his request.

So I moistened my lips and clenched my fist - God, help me.

I let my hands encircle his neck and began to lean in.

Luckily, just as our lips were about to connect, a sharp knock sounded at the door and jolted me from whatever spell was cast on me.

I quickly climbed off him and was quite surprised to see his below was solid hard while I thanked God for the distraction.

I knew who was at the door, Ned probably : He must be back with the orders.

With a grateful heart, I called him in and the poor guy immediately walked into the room with the request.

He set it on the large glass table but flinched when he met Nik's murderous glare right away.

What have he done? He must be thinking.

I sent Nik a warning look and he lowered the intensity but still had his eyes glued on the guy whose hand was now shaking.

I shook my head sympathetically, wondering how long Ned was going to last cause I heard none of Nik's secretaries last a month thanks to his nonchalant and devil-may-care attitude.

Niklaus simply ignored the guy and sauntered over to his desk and began to work on the documents while I enjoyed my coconut drink with chocolate waffles - I had to increase the size of my mammy gland per Nik's order.

Once I was done, I sat back on the sofa and began to watch Nik work - the sight was something to write home about.

It was no secret that men were the most handsome while working.

His shirt was left open at the neck exposing a bit of his chest while the sleeve was rolled in a faux casual style.

His face was scrunched tight, fixated in his work as he went through the files.

His passion and the way his face was deep in concentration made him much more appealing to me but I was beginning to get bored.

It seems Nik was among those people who would lose themselves completely to their work once they start it , cause over the next hour, his eyes were glued to his documents without saying a word to me.

I wondered if he knew I was still around
