Chapter Fifty-one : You Cant Fool Me Tigress (1/2)
Maya's POV
Nik evaded my attack as soon as I lunged at him, atlest he knows I'm planning to beat the crap out of him.
”Come here! ” I boomed but he just shook his head, giving me a sly smile that irritated me further.
”I promise, I won't hit you hard ” I tried to use subterfuge to lure him to my well thought trap but he still didn't fall for it .
”You can't fool me Tigress, not when the blood vessel in your head is about to burst ” He said taking a step back.
A malevolent smirk made its appearance on my face and then I propelled forward, chasing after Nik with all my strength.
So we started running around his office which was larger than my living room like bunch of kids playing tag.
” Come back here ! ” I yelled at him trying to grip him but he dodged me effortlessly.
Seriously, this guy.
This went on and on until I exhausted all my energy and had to bend, resting my hands on my knees and breathing heavily.
But that was not the case with Nik , aside from the little bead of sweat on his forehead, nothing else showed he just literally ran a relay race.
Jeez, what a stamina
”Should we continue? ” He teased with this mocking smile tugging his lips and I gritted my teeth.
”You - Ahh ” came my frightened scream.
I had approached Nik threateningly, ready to lash out at him when I suddenly slipped on something and started falling.
But Nik: my knight in shinning armor was there to rescue me as usual,
And unknowingly fell into my plan.
” A*shole ” I hissed and starting hitting him on the shoulder while he had to let go of my waist after bringing me up in order to defend himself.
”Ouch ” He cried out in pain trying to dodge my incessant attack ”Are you a gangster or something? ”
”Yes, I am ” I retorted with blazing eyes and renewed intensity ” How could you say that loud? ”
”How could you say ... my.. b... ”
Damn, I couldn't even say it out
” Y-you ...my... bo...” I sputtered, trying to come up with the right words to express myself
Nik was enjoying my distress, I could see it clearly on his face.
”You know what? I'm done ”
I sighed a deep long breath and returned to the centre of the office, plopping down on the firm yet soft sofa exhausted.
It seems Nik didn't expect my three-sixty degree change of plan cause he stood transfixed, confusion apparent on his face.
Thankfully the sofa was long enough to accommodate my legs so I simply plump it's cushion and lay down, resting my head on the arm , while shielding my face from the room's lightening by tucking it into the crook of my arm.
A minute hardly passed by when I felt a poke on my face - no need guessing, Mr nuisance was here again.
I ignored him, instead turned my back to him but as usual Nik was persistent.
” Won't you leave me alone? you have less than three hours to finish that truckload of documents on your desk ” I exaggerated, my back still turned to him.
”Are you angry at me? ” he asked, reaching out to tuck my hair behind my ear but I didn't reply him and sneered instead.
Realizing I was adamant on giving him the silent treatment, he backed off or so I thought until I suddenly felt an uncomfortable yet tingling sensation beneath my feet.
No way.
My eyes flew open at once as I tried to fight off Nik who was tickling the bottom of my feet.
”No stop it! ” I screamed while laughing at same time.
I tried to withdraw my leg from his hold but it was impossible, his grip was ironclad.
