Chapter 61 - Sixty-one : Niks Illegitimate Son. (1/2)
Maya's POV
I couldn't wait to get home, so when we finally pulled up at the mansion, I climbed out as quickly as my legs could carry me and shut the door close without a side glance nor goodbye.
Eden was beginning to scare me, not that kind of intimidating fear Niklaus always carries about but the creepy fear that sends shivers down one's spine.
He didn't complain as well and drove away as if the devil was on his heels. Perhaps because I was a lot distracted , I didn't notice the figure standing beside the huge intimidating gate that guides Nik's mansion and when I did notice, I was stunned.
What is this woman doing here?
She was incredibly beautiful, definitely Niklaus type - that is if he prefers women with soft curves in all the right places and not those broomstick like models that graces his arms times without number.
I looked down and saw a kid probably around Izzy's age holding her hand.They were looking around the mansion as if looking for someone, could it be *gasp * my imagination running wild at once.
Could it be that she was once Nik's lover and the kid.... Oh my God. Does it mean Niklaus has an illegitimate son?!
I felt dizzy all of a sudden. No maya calm down, I tried to assure myself .
Suddenly a white miniature version of myself wearing a white gown that covered her legs with real white feathers attached to her back while having a circle of light over her head appeared on my right shoulder.
I wiped my eyes, What the fuck .
But the tiny angellike me still stands there and softly says to me ”I have come to remind you that throughout the years of Nik's lustful rendezvous, there has never being reports of Nik fathering an illegitimate child nor has any woman claimed to have birthed a child for him, So why worry yourself? ”
My eyes widened, was this angel here to help me out with this situation? Wow, thank-you God! This was definitely help sent from above.
But thinking about it, which women would dare allege they have a child for Nik - His dark gaze alone was enough to make anyone pee in their pant. So think this through like the smart girl you are, Maya.
As if that was not enough, a red miniature version of myself with pointed horns at both sides of her head, short tail but having a triangular shape at the end while clasping tight a trident, appeared on my left shoulder. She was wearing nothing but an adhesive cup bra and some skimpy material tied at the edge of her waist while two white fangs were sticking out her mouth.
The red devillike 'me' pulled me by my ear and said ” What are you , ten ? would Niklaus even tell you he has an illegitimate kid somewhere? He hardly even opens up to you so what makes you think he would tell you of his hidden kid. Besides, look at the kid.”
The red devil pointed with her trident and I turned to look at the kid , they were still focused on the gate and so had their back turned to me.
The red 'me' continued ” Can't you see the colour of his hair, looks the same as Nik's and I bet when he turns around, he'll be Nik's spitting image ! ” She declared firmly and I couldn't help but begin to have doubts in my mind.
She was indeed right, though we have been progressing in this relationship of ours slowly - Yeah slow but steady wins the race.
But Nik has being holding out a lot on me - he practically knows everything about me but I know zero to nothing about him aside from the ones I already know which are quite obvious to everyone already.
But anything deeper, he doesn't let me in. I feel like he thinks I can't handle the shock, the weight , the responsibilities but I'm not some fucking China doll!
Yes, I'm weak but I'm not fragile, I've had quite my own share of life too. I've seen things , gory, depressing, you name it, I've seen and experienced such things too but I survived.
And how in the world am I supposed to trust him if he can't share a little of his past ? His childhood?. cause whenever I bring up such topics, he just filters through his memories and tells me the usual happy ending stories.
But unfortunately I want to hear the bitter ending stories too. I want to know the circumstances that forced and shaped him into being the man he is today. Is that a lot to ask for?
” You! ” Tiny Angellike 'me' thundered ” Don't confuse the young girl and return to wherever you came from”
Tiny Devillike 'me' gibed ” Hey you goody two shoes ! mind your business, don't you see I'm trying to open her eyes here?! ”
Tiny Angellike 'me' threatens ” Don't let me banish you to the abyss again ! ”
