Chapter 6 An Old Flame

last update Last Updated: 2022-11-11 18:47:41

The Next morning Grace woke up feeling refreshed. She could not remember the last time she slept like that. Maybe it was the soft bed and everything in it. Shaking off some sleep

She tried to remember what happened last night. The last thing she remembered, was being on the couch in front of a fire, enjoying Mr. Monrows pastry treats before everything went blank. Now here she was, dressed in a baby-soft night dress. Turning on her side, she knew she needed to pee.

Jumping out of bed.

Then realized her mistake, when a pair of strong arms caught her before she could fall. Gently Nickolas placed her back on the bed, not taking his eyes off her.

“Are you okay?’’ he said hoarsely “you need a doctor.”

“No...I got up too fast.” waving her hand at him

“Come let me help you to the bathroom” he took her arm and put it over his neck, he guided her to the room's en suite. “You do know that I can perfectly walk,” she said stealing a side look at him.

He looked like he had just woken up. His hair was shuffled up and he had on the same clothes from the previous day. Grace wondered if he had slept on the couch next to her bed.

Their communication was still a bit strained.

When they reached the bathroom door, she cleared her throat loudly and he got the message. He let her go in by herself. Stepping inside she was stunned by the size of the bathroom, her room alone was the same size as her whole flat. She discovered that each room she had been in had its unique style of decor. Her room was more feminine, it was decorated in all white.

Feeling a bit jealous she felt she didn’t know a lot about Nicko’s life except for the bits and pieces he shared on the ship, and everything from the gossip columns.

Nicko had thought of everything. or Mr. Monrow had thought of everything, the bathroom had everything she needed. She looked down at her night dress and wondered how he had managed to undress and dress her, or did he get help. She also had no idea how many people stayed at this home, except for the friendly Mr. Monrow, who she met yesterday.

'Today you should take a tour of the whole residence.' the voice was saying.

she stepped into the double shower. feeling more determined about her mission than ever. she Put on the bathrobe and went back into the room.

Nicko was on the bed. He had just put down her breakfast tray. her eye caught the contents on the tray and her stomach started rumbling.

As if reading her thoughts, Nicko go up and opened the covers for her. Once she was settled he put the tray on her lap.

“I already called the doctor to come and check you,” he said giving her the bowl of fruit. “I didn’t know what you wished for breakfast” looking nervous.

“Can we talk about this” she was feeling desperate to connect with him again?

“Maybe later, you need to rest. ill ask James to bring...”

“No, you cannot avoid me forever Nicko” cutting him off. She grabbed his wrist and pulled him back toward the bed. Surprised by her strength, he sat back down again, his eyes never leaving hers. At that very moment, he knew he couldn’t hold it anymore, he needed to touch her, care for her and feel her body against him. cupping up her face in his hands, he took one last look at her as if looking for confirmation from her, he kissed her. Gently at first, then with more need. she responded with the same urgency. His hand slipped inside her bathrobe to feel her swollen breast while the other tried to loosen the bathrobe. Once the bathrobe was out of the way, and her breasts were exposed, he stood up, his eyes never leaving her body. He took off his shirt and kicked off his shoes and socks, his pants followed with the same speed. When he got into bed, she pulled him closer, her need growing. her tongue fluttered against his, and his hands were all over her body, her hands playing with his hair and biting at his earlobe, she was rewarded with a moan from him. Time seemed to stand still. they were back at the ship again. When he couldn’t take it anymore he turned her around. she wanted to feel him inside her, turning her insides into liquid. They made love in that position. “mmm,” she moaned. He knew she was close and he intensified the pressure. “yes! Yes, don’t stop,” she screamed as her pleasure took over. Without waiting for her to come down from her high. He went into overdrive. all the frustration of the previous months came rushing over, he tightened his grip on her, buried his face in her head, and lost all control. When he regained his senses, he sat in bed trying to clear the fog in his head.

“I’m sorry I didn’t mean to lose control like that.” pulling her closer to him.

“I loved it, it took me back to the ship” smiling up at him as she nestled against him and closed her eyes.

The wedding plans had been put on hold, he refused to discuss anything related to the wedding. Amelia's need for control meant that she went ahead with the plans behind his back. The fact that he was not letting her in on the baby saga was infuriating. She saw Grace as Vulture that would do anything to make a buck. she knew their type.

    Grace put a steaming cup of coffee before Nickolas on the kitchen island."You are starting to behave like the wife I was meant to have."

"Can I ask you something?" She cleared her throat. shifted uncomfortably in her seat. Nickolas raised his eyes and looked at her. "Anything." She shifted in her chair. "When we were clearing out the mansion, I saw a jewelry box in your study…" She let the sentence trail off. "What about it?" He took a sip from his coffee without looking at her. "Is it yours?" "Yes. Pretty much everything in the study was mine. Say what you mean and mean what you say kiddo." He eyed her suspiciously."There was a picture with a woman and a child inside.""And you wanted to know who the woman was, if you must know, she's not my woman.""Of course, I know that I'm your w

    The following morning, Grace, Nickolas, and Luther walked into the Meyer mansion. The furniture on the first floor had been removed, giving the place an overly open feeling. As much as the light came through the big glass windows, the air inside was stifled and cold, giving the illusion that the house had been vacant for a while. The dust had started to settle on the marble floor, causing a scraping sound as their feet moved against the floor. Nickolas opened the door to his office, the only room on the first floor that had not been touched. Except for the mess that was on the floor, the room was intact. He also felt strange being there, given the fact that he hadn't been gone for over a week. Maybe the mansion had always carried a heavy presence without him realizing it, what was worse, he had gotten used to it. The office looked like someone had ransacked the place or the windows had been left open causing the papers to fly in all directions.He crossed the door threshold, insta

    Nickolas made a move to walk towards the bed. But Grace opened her mouth and shook her head. "I don't think I'm ready to go there just yet." He stood next to the bed, hearing what she was saying but not understanding her. "What do you mean by that?""That I don't think I'm ready to share a bed with you just yet." It didn't get any louder than that.He gathered his wayward thoughts and mumbled something before walking into the ensuite bathroom, to take the longest cold shower of his life. Grace sighed with a smile on her face and changed for bed. She picked up the red dress from the floor, shook her head, and smirked at it. Nickolas looked at the two water taps and didn't understand how the cold tap could feel so hot against his skin. He needed it cold. Ice cold to freeze his bruised emotions. Grace was rejecting him. She had been ready to walk out through the front door with her chest barely covered to meet another man and do god knows what but she wasn't ready to share a bed with

    Grace looked at her reflection in the full-length mirror. The dress looked, as though it had been sewn on her body. The neckline was too low, and the bodice that was supposed to cover her breast barely covered the whole breast. One mistake and they would be out on display for everyone to see. She put on her matching fuck me heels and did a final twirl in front of the mirror. Satisfied, she took her purse and carefully walked downstairs. She paused at the last step and looked around. With the furniture installed, the house looked more like the home she had envisioned. They had delivered everything she had ordered right to the T. Now all she had to do was to enjoy it. Starting this coming Saturday, with the get-together with her friends. She walked into an open plan that includes the lounge area and kitchen, next to it, the dining area. She walked to the kitchen and took out her wine glass. She needed to calm her nerves before she left the house. After pouring the wine, she gulped

    The following morning after he spent a miserable night on the floor. Things seemed to be abuzz at the house. Grace was already up and having a merry time with Niells Nanny. "Good Morning. Hope you had a relaxing night, after all that work you and Luther did." She said when he approached them, moving to the kitchen, to take out two cups. The nanny disappeared at the same speed. Nickolas followed her to the open-plan kitchen h he had a miserable night. While She, on the other hand, looked as radiant as ever, liked someone who had a night's rest in a plump bed with supporting pillows. "It was okay. Not one of my finest. But it was okay, thank you for your concern." He thought his body would snap at the slightest movement. She busied herself in the massive kitchen and brought him a cup of coffee. After last night's events, he hoped it was not poisoned. He closed his eyes and took a sip. It tasted amazing. He looked at the cup in surprise. "What would you like for breakfast?" Grace wa

    The following day, The Meyer mansion started getting cleaned and furniture wrapped. And other important items were put away into boxes for storage.By midweek, the undertaker had come to dig up the little coffin from the shallow grave by the pond to be moved to the new estate. Grace was home and they had already chosen a spot to lay her to rest.Nickolas now had two houses to sell. If Amelia ever left hers, he would also sell that house. "The house is in the process of being sold." He told Grace after the undertakers had put the coffin on the ground. "That means you will be homeless soon or are you not moving in with Amelia at her house?" He was taken aback by her question, he didn't think she would ever bring her up. He had a lot of repairing to do. "No. I thought you could spare a room for me. One room at the furthest side of the house. You won't even have to see me." He knew he was pushing his luck, but she looked at him as if considering his words. "I'm desperate here." He add

    When Nickolas got home that evening. Stravos met him at the door. "Madam left with her luggage and the baby." Those were the first words that left the man's mouth. "Ok stravos, thank you for letting me know." He had known that it was inevitable, but he still felt a tug at his heart. He had been hoping that they would move across this hurdle unscorched. But maybe he had been right all along. It was too much for her. After all, it had been his cross to bear and not hers.He made his way to the master bedroom and started opening closets, she had taken everything. She wasn't only mad at him, this time she was done, and little Neill? Would they have to go to court and fight it out? It was his rotten luck. He sat at the edge of the bed and thought about his choices. To add salt to injury, Amelia had come out of their affair happier than him, and without a hair out of place. He laughed out loud. She had bagged a child with a man she loved and most of his money. He truly envied her. He got

    When Nickolas got off the elevator, heads turned to look at him, some who were brave enough, whispered to their coworkers under their breath. It was clear that everyone was shocked just as Luther had been that morning, that they were going to work. He wondered what they must have been thinking all along. Did they think he was dying and the company was going down under? Lucky for them, he was back and ready to stir this ship to greater heights. As soon as Nickolas sat at his desk, his secretary came to his office and gave him a heap of messages that he needed to return. Soon enough he forgot all about Amelia and her drama, he had dodged a bullet there. Funny enough he thought he would lose his mind the day he found her with another man, but to his surprise he didn't feel a thing. Rather, his mind was preoccupied with Grace and the plans he had for them if she ever forgave him for his derailed ways. He wondered if it was too soon to ask for a second honeymoon.Luther knocked and peek
