Brooklyn looked at him with surprise. How did he agree to her offer so quickly? Would it mean that she wouldn’t be a prisoner here anymore? Would it mean that she would be free? Would it mean that she wouldn’t be locked up in a room any longer? 

“Thank you, Mr. Ardolf. I’ll do any work that you assign to me,” she said, looking up at him expectantly. However, all her hopes were dashed when he hardly looked at her and kept on working at his laptop. She waited eagerly for him to say something but he didn’t. After waiting for five minutes, she got up to leave. Maybe he had forgotten about her. 

“Be ready in ten minutes. I want you to accompany me to my office,” he said in a tone devoid of any expression. Brooklyn nodded and got up to leave. As she walked over towards the door, she could feel the hair at the

    Michael took her to the Accounts Department as Brandon was a good friend of his and his sister deserved a good internship. It would give her the exposure to get a good job in the future. “What are you studying?” He asked as they waited for the manager, Larry Grant to summon them. Brooklyn looked at her feet, feeling embarrassed.“I’m not studying anything right now but when I have enough money, I’m planning to take up Finance and then a management degree as well,” she told him. Michael seemed deep in thought.“Are you keen to study?” he asked and Brooklyn nodded.“Yes, very much,” she said eagerly.“My brother’s studying Finance, he’s in his final year. I could give you all his book

    “Miss, you should go home. Everyone has left. I’m closing the office down,” said the security guard. Brooklyn looked up from the screen. She knew it was late but Nikolas hadn’t at all summoned her or come to take her back.“Is Mr. Ardolf there in his office?” Asked Brooklyn hesitantly. The guard shook his head.“Sir has left twenty minutes back,” he informed her. Brooklyn’s eyes widened hearing the information. She panicked as she had no idea about the way to his house.“Could you tell me where he lives? I’m new here and don’t know the way back,” she asked him. He looked hesitant, not wanting to give out the information to her.“I’m not sure about this, ma’am

    Nikolas parked his car and got down. He picked up an unconscious Brooklyn in his arms and strode into the house. Kathy was still waiting for him, ready to be released. Sally wasn’t returning, having found permanent work elsewhere. Nikolas didn’t bother since he didn’t want a replacement. He didn’t want Brooklyn to be locked up anymore as he somehow knew that she wouldn’t escape without paying off the amount that was due.“What happened to her, sir? Do I have to stay back?” asked Kathy hesitantly. She had three children to look after and couldn’t stay back at all. Nikolas shook his head, walking towards Brooklyn’s room and laying her down on the bed.“Just get something to eat,” he told her. He walked to her washroom and brought some water and sprinkled it over her face. Brooklyn woke

    In the wee hours of the morning, Nikolas woke up and quietly left her room, up the staircase, the same way that he had come in. He knew that Brooklyn would wake up in the morning and react to his presence in her bedroom and that too, on her bed. He sighed and walked into his washroom to take a cold shower. For the first time in his life, he needed it. He had never in his life felt any urge or desire for a woman’s body. He hated the species and had never indulged in any physical intimacy with a single woman to date. Sometimes, he doubted his own affinities but last night it had all changed. Just sleeping with Brooklyn, wrapped up in her arms had unleashed a side to him that had been hidden for so long. For the first time, he desired her immensely, for the first time he felt aroused to the point of losing his mind. But one look at Brooklyn’s innocent face made him control his urges. He couldn’t add to her trauma. He would never force h

    Brooklyn looked at him with a blank expression on her face. Why did he need her bank details? Did he doubt her? Did he think that she and Brandon had deposited his money into her account? Her account had only her salary deposited from the restaurant which went to pay for the loan she had taken for her mom’s treatment.“I don’t have your money, Mr. Ardolf. The money in my account is my salary and I can’t give it to you. I need it to pay off the loan,” she said, looking at her hands with hurt. He didn’t at all believe her, it seemed. He still thought that she and her brother were thieves. Nikolas gave her a look of displeasure. How could she think that he would stoop that low and take away her hard-earned money? Last night when he saw her handbag, it was open with the things spilling out. He had wanted to check whether everything was in place. He had forgotten to pla

    Feeling extremely conscious of herself, Brooklyn looked away. She stopped mid-stretch and placed her arms down, pulling her top, down as well. She realized one thing from his behavior. She might be really looking odd in the dress she was wearing. She knew that it wasn’t up to the mark but what could she do? She didn’t possess anything better.It was lunchtime and Nikolas’s food arrived and he sat down to eat but one look at Brooklyn, hiding behind her desktop made his heart clench. He couldn’t eat a single bite. “Brooklyn, come here,” he yelled at her. Startled, Brooklyn rushed out of her cubicle and stood in front of him, taking care not to look at the delicious food spread out in front of him. Her stomach grumbled for food but she didn’t have any money to buy herself anything.“Yes, Mr. Ardolf, did y

  • Chased By Nikolas Ardolf   Chapter Fifteen

    Brooklyn was full of questions bubbling inside her but she had no answers to them. Why did Mr. Ardolf not inform the police about the money that Brandon had taken? Why was he being so kind to her? She was his prisoner, after all! Why did he care whether she ate or not? She remembered the way he caught her hand and led her into the office as if he sensed how she was feeling. He didn’t look like the caring type though. Then why did he care about her? Apart from the money involved, what ulterior motive could he have?Brooklyn sighed as she took a shower. Finally wearing her pajamas, she ate the food that Kathy had left her and then went to the kitchen to rinse her plate. The whole house was quiet with only Nikolas upstairs since Kathy had already gone home. She knew that the workers lived in the outhouse. Her heart started beating faster and faster even thinking about it but thankfully Nikolas kep

    Brooklyn rushed out just in time to see Nikolas climb into his car. She ran and got into the passenger seat, breathing hard. Would he leave for work without her? “Sorry, I overslept,” she mumbled apologetically. Nikolas gave her an amused look. He wondered whether he was the cause of it!“I see! Maybe lost in a dream?” He said, starting the ignition. From the deep flush of color that crept to her cheeks hearing his words, Nikolas was eager to tell her that he wasn’t a dream. He was real!“Not at all,” Brooklyn denied, looking away from his probing eyes and concentrating on her seat belt. Nikolas drove in silence, his wicked mind thinking of ways to tell her that he was the one in her dreams. Brooklyn wasn’t keen to talk more in case he took offense and brought up last night’s encounter. Strangely

    After having waited for hours, Brooklyn was excited to hear Nikolas’s voice downstairs, talking to Kathy. ‘He’s here, he’s here,’ her heart sang with glee. She sat in the nursery, feeding the twins and waiting impatiently for him to come upstairs. What was taking him so long?After five minutes, Nikolas peered inside the nursery, looking for her. The moment his eyes connected to hers, he flashed a dazzling smile at her. At that moment, everything ceased to exist around them and a look full of promises passed between them. He came closer and leaned in to plant a small kiss on her lips. Ellie left the room to give them some privacy.“Are you happy to see me home early?” he asked, pulling a chair to sit beside her.“Yes, so, did you throw your clients out and

    “You’re so f*cking wet, my love,” he whispered in a delirious tone, building up his rhythm. Brooklyn clutched at his shoulders for support while she moaned with pleasure.“You like it, don’t you?” Asked Nikolas in a tone hoarse with desire.“Yes, please don’t stop,” said a delirious Brooklyn, unable to recognize her own voice.“Will you c*m for me, baby?” Urged Nikolas.Brooklyn gave out a cry as she came undone right into his fingers. Nikolas licked his fingers clean and came up to her, showering her face with small kisses. Brooklyn was astonished to find him without his clothes as well. When did he take off everything?“Now I want you to giv

    “Who allowed you entry into my property?” Demanded an angry Nikolas. Ryder ignored him completely, his eyes were glued upon Brooklyn.“Brooklyn, I just wanted to talk to you,” he said looking dazed.“You can talk to me,” said Nikolas, his arm going around Brooklyn and pulling her closer to his side. Ryder noted the possessive gesture but he preferred to ignore it altogether.“Why should I talk to you? I’m sure Brooklyn can speak for herself,” said Ryder, standing in front of her.“I have nothing to say to you, Ryder. I’m sorry that you and Amy couldn’t make it together. As for me, I’m married to Nikolas for life. You’ve done a lot for me and Brand. I can offer you

    Fifteen minutes later, Brooklyn, helped by the two attendants, walked down towards the wedding arch created on the other side of the koi pond. Kathy and Ellie had got the twins ready in their tux rompers and pushed their strollers, following Brooklyn to the wedding venue. Brooklyn gasped seeing the huge crowd waiting to witness the wedding. She smiled at them as she knew most of them. They were all Nikolas’s employees around the estate and office. Her eyes searched for Brandon. She had heard him a little while ago. Had he not arrived yet?“Hey, Brooks! Looking for me? I’m right here to walk you down the aisle. I’m older to you after all!” said Brandon as he came up behind her, looking dashing in a dark charcoal tuxedo. Brooklyn’s face brightened up with a dazzling smile.“Only by 2 minutes, Brand.

    “Sleep tight tonight, daddy needs to play with your mommy,” whispered Nikolas, leaning closer to the twins as she fed them. Brooklyn rolled her eyes. So this was what he came inside the nursery for!“I thought we couldn’t get any action done till I’m completely healed. You said 4-6 weeks, right? So no wedding night for us, then,” she reminded him.“Still, we’ll make the most of it,” he said, staring deeply into her eyes with a promise of lots of car*al pleasure for later. The thought of it made her heart skip a beat. She couldn’t believe that by tonight she’d be a married woman, she’d be Nikolas’s wife. She hadn’t thought the day would come so soon. Nikolas stood in front of her as if he wanted to say a lot more. She looked so loving, fresh, angelic, and innocent tha

    “What? What marriage?” She gasped, looking horrified and totally lost. Did she hear him correctly? Did he mention their wedding? But how could that be possible? He hadn’t even proposed yet!“Our marriage! We’re getting married today,” said Nikolas, getting down from his car.“Today? But you haven’t even proposed yet! In fact, you said that you don’t want to get married, like never! Then what changed suddenly?” She demanded, feeling angry at him.“Nothing changed suddenly. I want to marry you, now! So are you coming or should I have to carry you into the County Clerk’s office?” Asked Nikolas impatiently, opening the door for her, eager to do as he had just threatened.&ld

    Brooklyn tossed and turned in her sleep as Nikolas’s haggard face kept on appearing in her dreams. She had waited all evening till late at night but he hadn’t emerged from the study. He skipped his dinner as well, making Brooklyn so upset that she sobbed herself to sleep. Was it her fault that Ryder appeared at her doorstep? Was it her fault that Ryder had developed feelings for her? She had never encouraged Ryder in any way. Then how could Nikolas hold a grudge against her? How could he not see how much she loved him?It was late when Nikolas walked into his bedroom. All the arrangements had been made for the wedding tomorrow. He had submitted an online application for a marriage license. Tomorrow he would simply visit the county clerk’s office to procure the license and then get married. It was a foolproof plan and nothing could possibly go wrong. His security guards were informed not t

    “Ryder? What are you doing here at this hour?” She gasped with shock. Ryder looked angrier and stormed inside the house, brushing past her. Brooklyn whirled around to face him, feeling disturbed by his presence.“What the hell is wrong with you? Why are you so hell-bent on resigning from the job? Can’t you understand your own good? You don’t need to dance to Nikolas’s tunes, Brooklyn. You should complete your education on your own merits. I’m giving you such a good opportunity, why can’t you just take it?” asked a displeased Ryder, his eyes still flashing angrily at her.“Why are you taking this personally? Do you run after every employee of yours this way?” demanded Brooklyn, irritated by Ryder’s attitude.“No, you’re sp

    The next morning Brooklyn woke up remembering that she needed to take the twins for their vaccination. Nikolas quickly took an appointment at the nearest health center. It was a busy morning as they rushed to get the twins ready to go. A nervous Nikolas helped calm down Nikson who went red, howling with pain after the shot. Brooklyn calmed Brycen down somehow. It was a harrowing first-time experience for them. By the time they returned home, both were haggard and exhausted. Nikolas went to work after lunch while Brooklyn tended to the twins. It was only when she tucked them to bed did she remember about her phone.Rushing towards the nightstand where she had placed it 24 hours back, she picked it up and switched it on. Brooklyn gasped seeing around forty missed calls from Ryder. Has he gone crazy? There were a few messages as well from him.I’m not accepting your resignati
