His Beautiful Addiction

Chapter 229 - Damn, You're Beautiful



The next morning, they woke up a little late; when Tiana opened her eyes, Nicklaus was tracing the tattoo on her back with his nails; she smiled as she turned around and kissed his lips;

\'\'Good morning; \'\' she said, standing up from the bed,

\'\'How was your night? \'\' Nicklaus asked as he watched her stand and her naked body with an abundance of hickeys came into view.

\'\' Dreamt of you, \'\' she grinned; \'\'I want to pee; \'\' she said and walked to the toilet naked.

After a few minutes, she stuck her head out of the door;

\'\'Let\'s shower/ \'\'

Nicklaus joined her in the shower, and after long minutes, they were done. He helped her dry her hair and afterward she dried his. Her eyes stared at his facial features as she blew his hair and she couldn\'t help but shake her head in admiration.

\'\' damn, you\'re beautiful. \'\'Nicklaus\'s eyes opened and a light chuckle left his lips; \'\'am I? \'\'

\'\'So beautiful; your beauty could be distributed to ten men and they would all still be handsome; \'\'

Nicklaus couldn\'t help bursting into loud laughter; did she wake up with an urge to flatter him?

\'\'stop laughing, I\'m not joking, I actually wish I can lock you up in my cage so no other woman would see you, \'\' Tiana pouted seriously, but Nicklaus couldn\'t help laughing the more.

\'\'I want to lock you up too, have you ever looked at yourself closely, you\'re stunning, just look at yourself in the mirror, \'\' Nicklaus said, turning her to look at the vanity mirror; a blush tainted Tiana\'s lips when she saw their faces;

\'\' damn, we\'re gorgeous. \'\' she laughed, kissing him on the cheeks;

\'\'I can\'t wait to make babies with you; \'\' Nicklaus said as he stared at their reflection in the mirror. Tiana sighed and dropped the dryer on her hand, then sat on his laps;

\'\'Our baby would be so beautiful; \'\' she said, \'\'I want him to have your eyes; \'\' she turned to look at him;

\'\'who said it\'s a boy? \'\' Nicklaus smirked pinching her nose;

\'\'you want a girl? \'\' she asked, with raised brows; Nicklaus nodded;

\'\'Mm, a girl that will look like you; \'\' Fathers connect more with their daughters and mom with their sons, so Tiana wasn\'t surprised when he said he wanted a girl.

\'\'Alright, since I want a boy and you want a girl, we would just wait till we have the child then. \'\'

Tiana smiled; her hands going around his neck as she stared into his eyes;

\'\'I\'ll make sure it\'s a girl then; \'\' Nicklaus said with a grin on his lips, Tiana laughed;

\'\'Baby would listen to mommy first, don\'t you think? \'\'

Nicklaus laughed and leaned in for a kiss; \'\'I can\'t wait for all these to be over; \'\' He said, placing his forehead against hers, a sigh leaving his lips;

\'\'Me too, we\'ll just have to wait a little more. \'\'

She hugged him, nuzzling her head in the crook of his neck; everywhere grew quiet as they listened to each other\'s breath, \'\'I love you; \'\' Nicklaus said after a long while, kissing her on the neck. 

\'\'Love you too, baby. \'\'

Claire stepped out of her house, she had stood in front of the mirror for long minutes, practicing how to fake a smile and not look bothered. If she could scale through that night then she was sure going to survive any other day.

Leo was handsome and Hazel very beautiful, she could already imagine how they would look in matching dresses, even when she didn\'t want to think about it she couldn\'t stop her mind from wandering over to the thoughts of them.

She didn\'t want to go for the birthday but the CEO had called her himself and invited her so she knew she wasn\'t going to miss it for anything. Sluggishly she dragged herself outside the house where her guards were waiting for her with the car;

She wanted to go with someone from the company but she didn\'t want to make the situation more complicated than it already was, with having to answer if they were a couple or not.

Thankfully when she got to the venue, the CEO welcomed her especially and she sat with him in the reserved area, so the number of people she would greet would be few. She greeted a few people but her eyes were keenly searching for Leo, he had not arrived yet.

A few minutes after the event started, they were still not there. Claire brought out her phone to call and ask him where he was but after some thought, she decided against it. Hazel was already suspecting them having an ambiguous relationship, she might be with him now and might likely be the one to answer the phone, and she didn\'t want to give her a reason to suspect them the more, so she decided against it.

 After a few minutes, she was chatting with one of the guests when the woman\'s eyes widened;

\'\'oh, is that not Leo? \'\' Claire turned to the direction of the voice and she froze when she saw them;

They were wearing a red matching outfit; Hazel was putting on a red short gown and Leo, a black suit with a red shirt on the inside, and his first two buttons were unhooked; they looked so perfect together. Claire\'s eyes hurt as she stared at them and she quickly pulled her eyes away;

\'\'Yeah… \'\' she mumbled to the woman, swallowing hard;

\'\'Oh, is that his girlfriend? She\'s so pretty!\'\' The woman exclaimed and Claire nodded;

\'\'She is, \'\' she wanted to end the discussion but she didn\'t want the woman to suspect anything so she forced herself to act cool\'

The woman stared at them for the longest time then she turned to Claire;

\'\'Do you know, everyone thought you both were dating, damn, you both looked perfect together, were you guys dating before or something? \'\'

The woman asked, and Claire breathed in sharply; the night was just starting and she was already feeling like fainting.
