In the heated moment, Naomi couldn’t understand how their legs brought them to the bed. She fell on that losing her balance adding spice to this situation.
For the first time, in her life, she’s with a guy in this position. His kiss went from her cheeks to her neck and a small moan escaped her lips. But she knows this is the limit and they have to stop right here.
“Nick, please,” she caressed his cheeks. In all the neighboring rooms her brothers were there and they might hear this.
Understanding her fear, he pecked her lips and got up from the bed. When she pouts and raises one of her eyebrows he can know she’s not interested in that and he can never push her after that.
He’ll wait for the perfect moment, after all, he’s better in that.
Naomi goes to Kitchen leaving Nick alone in the room. As soon as she goes out Magnus and Jorge enters having a teasing expression which made Nick smile.“Hey, youChapter- 27 Magnus and Nickolas finished their final exams that week and they got free but anxious at the same time. They still have to attend for a month before graduating and they were quite nervous about how the results going to come up. Vincent has asked his men to look for a good place for the boys. In this week, Naomi couldn’t meet him often as he concentrated more on his exams and Naomi wanted that more than anything. She wanted him to take this seriously and get his desired score so that he won’t take the test again. Her life is the same, mundane. She attends her classes without fail and reading new books in all her free time. Improving her landscape photography skills and started her baking classes. She’s quite busy doing all these things along with her love life and family. And she became quite excited when they announced the prom for their seniors. Magnus said on the same day, his friend Eliot has thrown a party at his house for his friends
Chapter- 28 When Jorge is working on his assignments finally, putting Julia’s thoughts aside, he heard a car sound and he thought it might be Derek or Nick so he walked to the window to look at who it is. Every weekend all of his cousins would come here or they will go to their house, but in the last two weekends Julia didn’t come here nor Jorge went to see her. In fact, she didn’t meet him after he rejected her, it’s quite clear that she avoided him as much as she could and he didn’t try much to talk with her and gave her the space she needed. But today, he’s expecting everyone including Julia to come here. He wants to see her yet he isn’t confident enough to meet her eyes. As he guessed, it’s Nick when he saw from the window. Something in him told that Julia is there in the car. His heart throbbed loudly in that few seconds acquainting that he indeed wanted her to be here. And again his guess was right, Julia got down from the car with a small smile
Chapter- 29“Mom, do you think I look good in this dress?” Naomi asks her mom who’s standing beside Naomi’s drawer.“You look wonderful, darling,” she said seeing her daughter in that violet-rose silky frilly gown. Naomi chose the simplest one because she doesn’t want to catch anyone’s special attention except Nick. She wanted to dress in his favorite color but she couldn’t find a simple dress in black and grey so she chose a dress for her taste. She just hopes he likes her.“You are perfect,” Ashley came near with a smile.“Thank you, you always chose the best dress for me,” Naomi said, “Can you close this zipper?”“Sure,” Ashley did what she asked to and went to pick the jewelry box she brought from her room.“Wear this pearl necklace for this evening,” Ashley opened the box and Naomi was surprised. That’s one of her mom&
It wasn’t bad as how Nick thought. He liked dancing with Naomi. She’s all smiling, blushing, and looked so happy than ever. This is enough for him to be happy as well. He’s so pleased to dance with the most beautiful girl in the entire hall, and he couldn’t take his eyes off her. He’s so crazily in love with her.When Magnus said that he’s leaving the hall to go to Eliot’s party, “let’s go, we are getting late for the party,” Nick said and Naomi nodded half-heartedly. She likes being here.Since Eliot’s parents weren’t at home, he invited his close friends and a few of his classmates to celebrate their end of school days. But more people have come and it was quite crowded.Magnus and Nick have bought some beer for the party and Naomi got surprised to see that.“Guys this isn’t good. If dad finds out then…” “We know, it’s not for
Chapter- 30 After meeting his class tutor, Jorge came out of his room. He went there to inform her that he won’t come tomorrow as he got a jiu-jitsu match to participate in. While he's on his way to his class, he saw Julia near her locker and she’s not alone which made Jorge frown. She’s talking to Martin who’s the same year as Jorge, the basketball captain and a popular guy among girls but Jorge doesn’t like him as he’s a big show-off. It’s clear that he doesn’t like her talking with him and also he doesn’t want her to talk to any other guy. He knew this is insane but he can’t stand to see her with any other guy. Jorge never really sees Julia as a girl he could date for all these days, but now his mind is kept thinking, why not? But still, he didn’t think much into that. After what happened between them, he’s quite impressed with her. He desires to get her attention, he wants her to talk with him and remain as best cousins like always. But now what’s
Chapter- 31Naomi got down from the car when Nickolas stopped it before his apartment building. She gazed at the huge-expensive penthouse building and it’s quite hard for her to see because it’s drizzling.This is a high-security building and guards were always around. Naomi heard a few celebrities were staying here too.“Come on, don’t stand in the rain,” he said putting his blazer on her head and dragged her with him, making Naomi smile.The chauffeur took his car to the parking lot.They went inside the elevator and Nick pressed the number 15.“Is your apartment on the fifteenth floor?” Naomi asks as she’s quite afraid of heights.“Yeah,” Nick nods. “I won’t let you near the windows, don’t worry,” he smiles.His test scores came two weeks before and just like he said he got great scores to get into this university which his U
Chapter- 32Naomi walked back to the building losing all the interest to go out. Nick followed her silently, he doesn’t want to create a scene in the lobby.In the elevator, Nick kept staring at her but she didn’t bat an eye at him and looked down the whole time.He tried to say something but he’s hesitant too. He not only exposed his other side, but he has also put their family secret at risk. Now she’ll ask a million questions about everything and he can’t say the answers until her father reveals. He clenched his teeth in frustration.Once they came to the house, Naomi sat down on the stairs. She doesn’t know what to ask him that much she’s shocked. Even the gun didn’t scare her but his uncontrollable rage to hurt someone scared her more.“Hey,” he touched her shoulders. Naomi moved away from his touch.“I can explain,” Nick said and kneeled before her. &ld
“Don’t look at me like that,” he said. Naomi shifted her gaze and biting her lower lip. Nick smiles to see the way she’s acting like a small girl.“Please, look at me,” Nick held her hand and kissed her knuckles. She gulped seeing his dark brown eyes, they were glimmering with the love for her. Her heart raced and she badly wanted to smile but before that, she has to talk. “You are so controlling, Nick,” she complained. She doesn’t want to hurt him but he had to know what he’s doing. “If you are in my place, you would have done the same,” he said and Naomi agreed to that. “Do you believe that I am a good person?” he asked. With this charming smile, innocent gaze, and sweet talk no one can dare to say that he’s a bad person. “Yes, I know you are a good person,” she nods with a smile. “Do you trust me?” “Yes, I trust you, Nick. But don’t you think I deserve an explanation for what happened there?” she asks. “I’ll t
Two years later“Mermaid,” Nick’s voice made her stir up from her sleep. But she didn’t open her eyes thinking this is her dream. “Wake up, mermaid. Look at your kingdom,” he chuckled softly.Naomi smiled, still thinking this is a dream.“Darling open your eyes and look at this ocean. Don’t waste time sleeping here,” he said and yes, she could hear the sound of the ocean.Naomi left a small sigh and opened her eyes to look at the blue sea from the window.She smiles and her gaze turns to Nick.“Isn’t that beautiful?” he asks. “Yes,” she nods smiling at him.“Now, wake up. I want to go there with you,” he said.“Give me five minutes, please,” she requested, squinting her eyes. He can’t deny it when she does that expression.“Fine,”When he was about to get up, sh
Chapter- 58Naomi is sitting on the small chair before her wardrobe and looking at which dress to wear for Magnus-Lisa’s engagement party tomorrow. This is the first party that they were going to attend after Nick came home.Nick came in and stood next to her after finishing off some work in his office. “What are you looking at?” He asks. His voice sounded tired and he placed his hand on her shoulder.“My clothes aren’t fitting me anymore so I am looking at which one I should wear for tomorrow,” she said.“Can I give you a suggestion?” he asks. “Sure, you can,” Naomi smiles. Nick took a moment and pointed out a yellow dress. “This would be great on you,” he said.“Thanks,” Naomi likes his choice and looks up to meet his eyes. He just simply put her at ease. Being pregnant isn’t that easy as she always stressing out about everythin
Chapter- 57Nick’s scars have healed as a week passed. He mostly stayed at home. Naomi went to work but her thoughts were always on Nick. Now she becomes that worried person in their relationship. She would call Nick often and he loves to attend her calls as he was bored to be alone at home. Naomi would come home earlier and they would watch movies, talk endlessly and fall asleep clasping hands.They have checked with the doctor and Naomi was prescribed medicines and advised not to get stressed at this time.She agreed and they were coming back to normal. But they were also being more conscious about their safety. Naomi double-checks the locks before going to sleep and also had a nightmare which she never wanted to remember. She has been taking advice from her mom, Aunts and they visit her often. When she’s with Nick, she felt safe and happy.In the meantime, Vincent has taken a decision and when he said it to the others, no one thoughts it&rs
Chapter- 56 Everyone’s eyes were fixed at the doorstep where Nick stood, not in his usual brisk. His injuries were covered by the jacket he’s wearing. Even though his face is utterly dull, he managed to plaster a smile for everyone’s sake of happiness. His eyes for Naomi and when he spotted her near stairs, his smile grew wider turning into a happy grin. She’s staring at him back with a smile, it gave him a comfort at last after all that he endured in the past two days. All his family members were there. Magnus has cut off his trip short to see his best friend. He was so worried and completely angry at Andrei. At the time he’s so happy to know that he’s going to be an Uncle soon. “Why everyone looking at me like that?” he asks. “I am alright,” He walked in holding his father’s hand. Naomi can’t help but feel gloomy to see him. “For a few more days. Don’t hug me,” Nick warned them with a smile. Julia and his mom were one’s who hi
Chapter- 55Naomi is sitting in the garden silently and she didn’t look anywhere except her phone. Her thoughts were all on Nick. She’s waiting for the call from Jorge.That time, Julia came with coffee and some potato chips.“Nat, you didn’t eat anything? At least have this coffee,” she said.Naomi finally realized that she should eat, at least for her baby. So she got that mug and sipped the coffee.She looked dull more than she ever was.Nick was shot two times, in the shoulder and chest. It’s critical but he survived. Obviously, the person responsible for this is Andrei.“Nat. I know my brother, he’s such a strong person so don’t worry, okay,”She nods but nothing can comfort her at this time. It’s only Nick, his voice and his assurance that he’s okay are what she’s yearning for right now.“You know what Julia. I am so afraid right now,
Chapter- 54Nick is traveling to Miami and Los Vegas for some business. Naomi is sad but she didn’t show it on her face. She just stood beside the foot of the bed and watching him packing his stuff.“I will be back soon,” he said noticing the apparent sadness in her face.“Okay,” she smiles. “And stay at your father’s home, okay,” he said and she nods in assurance.“I would have taken you with me but I am not going for a normal trip.“Okay,” she nods and went to him.“You have to be safe,” she said caressing his hair.“Don’t worry about me,” he smiles and his hands were resting on her butt.He’s going to leave in two hours and Naomi has something important to tell him but she hesitates to open that up at this time. She wants to reveal it at a perfect moment so she chose to be silent.“I just have an hour left
Chapter- 53“Fuck, fuck, fuck,” Andrei gritted and punched the table hard which heard louder in that empty room.“How could that bastard do this? Again and Again,” Andrei punched the wooden table repeatedly considering that as Nick’s face. He wants to beat him to death and leave him to die painfully. That’s when he could feel better.Andrei isn’t happy with the way Nick has crashed one of his businesses and he has lost millions in this. In the past year, Andrei has maintained low and living a normal life looking after his business but this again tempting him to put the revenge on. He can’t leave this matter; he can’t accept this failure and he’s never going to back down like his father.He took his phone and called his uncle. “I want you to kill him now, don’t give me any fucking excuse. I really want him to be dead this time.“But it’s not that easy, it
“I didn’t meet Nick, Julia’s brother?” she said. “You met him, I introduced him as Nicholas, he got long hair,” Derek reminded. “Yeah, that handsome guy. I remember him. He didn’t chat with us like others so I thought he’s a distant relative and he looked different from the photos,” she said. Monica doesn’t have siblings like Derek, she’s quite interested in his cousins and wants to know how they were so close. When they were in London, he didn’t share this many details with her.Now after meeting all his family members personally she got so many questions. They were all good-looking and interesting people.“He’s a busy person. He actually came there for Naomi, they were together now,” Derek said. “You mean in a relationship?” “Yeah, they were dating on and off since high school,” he answered. “That’s in
Chapter- 52 It was a weekend, Jorge came out of the airport carrying his small travel bag. He’s wearing a black shirt and black slacks and sunglasses covering his blue eyes. He looked like a greek god in modern attire. He removed his sunglasses when he spotted Julia waiting for him and his lips curled in a smile. When Julia saw him, she ran to him with a smile. He lifted her from the ground and her hands, legs were wrapped around him in a strong embrace. She didn’t mind doing such a thing in public because she missed him that much. It’s been two weeks since they met. He started kissing her when she stood on her feet. “I missed you, baby,” he said. She smiled and stood away from him to take a proper look at hi
