His Beautiful Addiction

…

It's been over three weeks since Orica was officially released. Howells hadn't experienced such success in years now, the sales amounted to over $50,000,000 and counting!

It was massive!

Nicklaus and Tiana had been very busy with press conference and interviews once they even had to leave town for a conference.

They only had time to rest on Saturday. By 2pm, Nicklaus opted to cook for her.

''What!! '' Tiana jumped from the bed, her eyes wide open.

''What? You don't want to eat my food? ''

Nicklaus asked as he took out a shirt from the wardrobe, his brows creasing.

''no! It's not it. I… the workers will watch! What are they going to say if they see their boss cooking?! ''

She asked, her eyes wide with shock, did he lose some nuts in the night?

Nicklaus blinked; ''is there anything wrong with that? ''

He asked, as he wore his shirt.

Tiana blinked, her whole expression shocked;

''What? Can't you see what is wrong with that? ''

''What? ''

''Everyone is afraid of you in this house, if they see you cooking in the kitchen and see me eating the meal afterwards, they might think I've gone to see a white witch and cast a spell on you. ''

Tiana explained and instantly, Nicklaus burst out laughing.

''O boy! white witch?! '' he laughed as he walked away from the wardrobe and to the bed where she was sitting, leaning closer to her, he pecked her forehead;

''Well, as long as it's you who cast the spell on me, I don't have a problem. So what do you want to eat?''

Tiana blinked and pouted her lips, not wanting to speak;

''Okay, I'll just cook anything that comes to my mind then. '' He stood straight and started walking towards the door.

''Aish! Wait! Wait for me! '' Tiana stumbled out of the bed and wore her home slippers and raced after him, seeing that she couldn't do anything to stop him, anyway.

…

All the workers at home, stood outside the huge kitchen, shocked, dumfounded and bewildered.

Everyone came to see for themselves and now they were seeing, they couldn't believe their eyes.

Young Master was cooking!!!

That was not the only strange thing about the situation, the fact that he was smiling and laughing was shocking to say the least!

What happened between these two?

Was the question in everyone's minds.

It all started after they came back from the ancient home, Nicklaus had ordered her things to be taken up to his floor, and the wall painting changed to something more lively, he even ordered for all the drawings on the wall to be taken down,

Although they were suspecting something, they didn't want to think much of it, but with the sight in front of them, they couldn't ignore it anymore.

How did this woman get the young master wrapped around her fingers?

''Beautiful, that's too much salt! ''

Nicklaus laughed as he removed some salt from the chuck roast on the flat board. They had agreed to cook pot roast since it was for dinner.

Nicklaus had asked Tiana to just watch, but she had insisted on doing something, now she had added too much salt.

''Just sit here okay, I'll tell you if you need to do anything. '' He said, pointing at a stool opposite him. Tiana pouted and walked over to the stool, sitting down and cupping her cheeks with both hands and watched him.

''Now that's better, just watch me. ''

He smiled and continued with the beef. She watched his hands work as though he had done this all his life. Soon, her eyes shifted from his hands to his face.

''Ah, so handsome… ''

She thought as she gazed at him,

How could someone be this handsome even when cooking? Everything looks good on him, even an apron!

She exclaimed as she gazed at him all over.

To think someone as handsome as this was crushing over her!

Tiana grinned as a blush tainted her cheeks.

''Wow! Three hours. ''

She exclaimed when she saw Nicklaus set the baking time. ''

''hmm, there are other methods; I think one takes about 8 hours to cook. ''

''Wow, I've never prepared this, didn't know it took so long to cook. We can tell the chef to serve the meal when it's ready, let's go up and shower, okay? ''

Tiana held his hand and led him out of the kitchen after he washed them in the sink. As she opened the door, she heard feet scampering, and she realized that the workers had been watching them, her lips pouted.

''See, I told you. They think I've done something to you. ''

Tiana said as she watched them all scamper away.

Nicklaus came to stand behind her, and then he spoke to her ear;

''But you've really done something to me. ''

Tiana turned to him, her eyes wide open;

''Uh, what did I do to you? ''

Nicklaus smiled and placed his hand on his chest,

''You left my heart hanging. ''

…

Tiana walked into the room after she took a shower, Nicklaus was on the phone, and when he saw her, he smiled and ended the call.

''Been waiting for you, let's go eat, I'm famished. ''

He said with a smile, Tiana could see the tenderness in them; or rather it had been there all the while but because of what he said earlier, she couldn't pretend not to see it anymore.

Her heart had been racing like hell since he said those words, and she knew she couldn't deny it any longer. She had fallen for him.

Hook

Line

And Sinker!

Since these past weeks, he had filled her every thought and actions and without her realizing it, he had grown into her every cell. And she wanted him to know this, she wanted him to know she felt the same way towards him.

Nicklaus watched her, walk towards him in silent steps, her eyes fixated on his.

His brows creased as he wondered what she was up to but before he could say a word, Tiana walked to him, pulling him by the neck, she kissed him passionately on the lips.
