Taming A Billionaire

[Completed] "When am I getting a new mom? " Maya choked and sputtered on her drink getting herself into a coughing fit while I was quite startled but showed no other reaction other than that. I was expecting it anyway  Maya got herself after some moments "You! " She bellowed "That's no way to tal-"  I dismissed Maya with a wave of my hand fixing my attention on my dear daughter  . "Why? " I asked exuding an authoritative aura with an arrogant smile tugging at a corner of my lips  Isabelle smiled back at me, a fierce determination to win this battle evident on her face "I need a motherly figure " "And? " "Girls just want their mom sometimes " "And? " "Need someone to talk boys stuff with" "You can always discuss it with me" I blurted out without even realizing it and the reply I got was an awkward cough from Maya and a death stare from my daughter. "Well, we can always compromise on that " I tried minimizing the damage done. Why does it all go south when it comes to boy's stuff? Isabelle stood up abruptly and banged her hand hard against the table almost knocking some dishes over in the process "Just admit it!What makes you think you can be able to handle me in my rebellious teenage years? " I  wanted to reply when I heard Maya murmur beneath her breath "As if you aren't rebellious enough now? " I smirked,she was definitely the perfect match for Isabella and I had the perfect plan in mind.  "So let's say I agree, who do you want for a mother? "I said throwing the ball in her court and hoping she'll make the right choice "Tina? or.....? " Isabelle stared at me skeptically, obviously wondering if I was sincere or playing around. So I focused my intense and get down to business gaze on her and in a few moment, her lips twitch upward in a smirk , as if we were communicating telepathically, she said "I want her" Isabelle announced pointing at an absent minded female entertaining herself with a grilled chicken and quite oblivious to what  was going on. I smiled, Isabelle was surely my blood  "Fine by me "I agreed  knowing just how much Isabelle values promises " I have to keep my own part of the deal then " I excused myself before turning to discover the horror on Maya's face but that didn't stop me, instead I added more fuel to the fire "let's get married" ~~~~ Maya was never special especially not like her sister Kim who seem to have everything. Nik Spencer a world known professional player, a chronic heartbreaker and the only man immune to love.

Chapter Fourty-nine : Damn, I Am One Lucky Girl

Maya's POV

"Eww" said Izzy in disgust "You both should get a room, there is still a kid in the house " She stated and hanged the stainless steel pots back on the metal railing attached to the wall.

" Oh "I gasped and drew back at once much to Nik's annoyance. "Ummm" I cleared my throat "What are you doing here? "

"What do you think? " She threw back at me "Of course I came to check up on you but it seems someone beat me to it " She insinuated that her father was filling her role.

Today was wednesday and it happened that Izzy skipped school with the excuse of 'Taking care of her sick nanny ' and no one objected. The few days she left for school without me, testimonies of her great exploit - note the sarcasm , has already filled my ears . It seems I've become one of the few persons capable of making Izzy be in her best behavior.

Nik didn't say a word to his daughter, he was still pissed at her for destroying our moment, so he simply went to the oven and brought out a baking pan full of golden brown baked onions .... what the fuck. Was this what he was preparing ?

" Forgive me " He said, presenting the vegan comfort food before me as I chuckled, the flavourful aroma filling my nostrils and my mouth watered but something else was on my mind.

I took the pan from him and placed it gently on the counter and instead grabbed his hands, taking him unaware and checked for cuts and per my expectation, I found one.

"Oh this " He mumbled, trying to slip his hand away from my grip with a guilty expression but I passed him a glare that froze him on the spot .

"I was really careful this time " He began to explain "It's Amanda who caused this, the blame is on her"

"And the pain's on who?" I countered sternly

" Me" He answered truthfully with an apologetic look " Fine, I'll be careful next time" He told me decisively and wrapped his arm around my waist drawing me close to him.

" Alright? So stop being angry" He pouted his lips in an such an adorable manner that I forgot why I was even angry in the first place.

I shook my head inwardly, Nik would be the death of me.

All of a sudden, out of the the corner of my eyes, I saw Nik slap Izzy's hand away when she tried to steal one of the Baked Onions With Fennel Breadcrumbs.

"Ouch" She cried out in pain examining her hand " What was that for? "

"You're not permitted to touch these, it doesn't belong to you " Nik's stated as a matter of fact, pushing the pan far from her reach.

"Nik behave " I warned him "She's just a kid "

"I'm not a kid " Izzy repudiated, wrapping her arms across her chest in a stern manner.

"Darling, you said so yourself less than ten minutes ago " I gloated and grabbed one of the vegan side dish and took a huge bite.

"Wow " I moaned as the rich taste exploded in my mouth. It was so tender, sweet, crispy and savory - the dish was perfect.

I continued my chewing , knowing it was further irritating Izzy who just realized she did call herself a kid during her epic entrance.

"Want some?" I asked her but she just glared at me and left for the living room, an irritated moue on her face.

"Here,take this " Nik passed a glass of coconut milk to me, to drink and help wash down the food.

Wow, how thoughtful.

Come to think of it, why do I feel I'm the one benefiting the most from this marriage of a thing. I mean he's rich; I probably won't get broke ever again, he's handsome; I can get used to staring at that face for the rest of my life till death do us apart, he's caring ; what more could I possibly want?

Yes, he's a chronic player but he's being trying lately to live up to his word and I strongly believe with time, this is definitely going to work out.

"Aren't you going to have a taste of your handiwork?" I asked gesturing to the few food still remaining.

" Sure" He replied, tilted my chin upwards as his lips seeked mine hungrily.

What the... oh , my brain malfunctioned at once. His tongue without wasting time, slid into my mouth and savoured mine, as if it was a fountain and he was taking water to fulfill his thirst.

"Definitely delicious " He responded when he pulled away and at this point, I couldn't tell if he was referring to the food or the kiss.

" Come with me " He said out of the blue, startling me.

" Huh? "

" Come with me to the office " Nik requested while I swallowed.

" You mean your workplace? "

"Yeah " He answered.

"Don't you think it's a little bit too early?"I asked, feeling hesitant about this.

"I don't think it's too early and besides it's time people start paying you respect as the future mistress. Moreover you've been cooped up in the house for these past days, it's time to get a change of air " Nik concluded while his hands cupped my cheeks.

"You still haven't gone on your knees nor do I see a ring on my finger" I pointed out, stretching forth my hand to make my point.

"Well, that's a work in progress " He chuckled, a deep rumble that made me get butterflies in my stomach "Unless you want it that badly " He teased on purpose, playing with my hair.

I slapped his hand away "Fine, I'll go with you then. Go and prepare while I do the same " I finally gave in, besides there was never going to be a time I would defeat Nik Spencer in an argument - I've already given him the crown, the guy should've been a lawyer.

I left for my room to search for a suitable outfit out of the many Nik had gifted when he changed my wardrobe.

After rummaging through my wardrobe for hours, I finally settled on a light grey turtleneck sweater with white slim ankle pants and a nude patent heels while I tied my hair into a ponytail.

Done and dusted, I made my way downstairs and removed the black wayfarer sunglasses I was donning when my eyes fell on Nik.

"Wow" I whistled, this guy looks good in practically anything.

He was wearing a sky-blue blazer with a crisp white shirt under it and teamed with black trouser and Loafers.

His face was framed by a round polarized sunglass while his shirt obviously lacking a tie was left open at the neck.

Damn,I am one lucky girl .
