NICKLAUS THE MASTER
Chapter 39
Written by: Racheal Dennis
Matilda’s pov ?
Marcus stands outside our door, he knocks on it just like he’s been knocking for the past 20minutes.
“Go away!” I yells from inside her living room.
After that incident at the mall, I gave him his card back and board a taxi home…I wasn’t expecting him to follow me but he did.
“Please open the door, I made a mistake…”
I scoffs loudly, he made a mistake… really? Who would believe that?
“Do I look like a kid to you?”
I sits on an armchair, a bowl of popcorn on my laps while I watch “The Notebook!”
I watch movies when I’m feeling upset, and right now I’m feeling quite upset…ask me why, I, myself don’t know!
“Matilda, I swear, I made a mistake… I’ve only ever kssed two women in my life!”
“Two women!” I scoffs. “Then go court them, I bet they are still waiting for your kss!”
I’m not angry or jealous.. no, I’m not.
But he shouldn’t have told me about the number of women he’s kssed, he should have respected the fact that he’s asking me out and shut his mouth!
“I’m really sorry, I won’t repeat that mistake ever again!” He said.
I ignore him, he continues knocking on the door… which is really becoming annoying now.
“I said you should go away, I don’t wanna see you!”
288th! What a playboy he is.. my phone beeps, I reach for it and sees a message from Anastasia.
I quickly open it with a smile, but my smile falters in no time as I read the message.
*Hey Tilda, I know it’s sudden but Klaus wanted me to move in with me.. so I did! I’m sorry for leaving suddenly!*
“What?! She moved out?!” I exclaimed and jumps up, knocking off her popcorn.
My eyes glance through the message again.
“Matilda, what’s wrong? I heard you scream!” He said from outside.
I rolled my eyeballs.
“It’s none of your business! I’m fine!” I snap at him.
She didn’t even think of calling me before moving out, no heads up!
My legs move me towards her room, I open her wardrobe and notice it’s empty.
I quickly dialed her number to give her some scolding but she didn’t pick up… Hmm, she better call me back when she sees my missed calls!
Wait…her phone was broken this morning.
Taking a deep breath, I head back to the living room… Now it’s just me alone in this apartment.
“Matilda, it’s gonna rain soon, please let me in!”
My eyes move to the window, it’s truly getting cloudy outside and I can feel the cold breeze blowing in.
“Then go back home or you’ll be drenched in the rain!” I told him.
“I’m not going, let me in!”
“Don’t be stubborn! Go home now!”
“No!” He replies.
I narrowed my eyes and nod my head.
“Fine! Let’s see who’s more stubborn!” I told him.
I reach for the TV remote control, I increased the volume of the TV and smirks.
Let’s how you’re gonna disturb me now!
A few minutes later, I was already dozing off to sleep when it started thundering..
I shake off some sleep off my eyes and rushed to the window.. to close it.
After closing it, I walk back to my chair and turn off the TV.. soon, it started raining heavily.
Then my mind flashes back to Marcus who was standing outside my door… I wonder if he’s still there.
If he’s still standing there, he’ll really get drenched… groaning quietly, I head towards the door…I open it and behold Marcus is still there.
He’s already shaking from cold.
“Why haven’t you left?” I asked him.
He smiles at me.
“I know you wouldn’t be heartless to leave me here and watch me get drenched in the rain”
I glared at him but make way for him to come in anyway, he quickly step in and I shut the door.
“Does this mean you forgive me?” He asked.
I raised an eyebrow.
“Wanna know why.. my cousin didn’t end up with Anastasia who’s been crushing on him since forever?”
He nods quickly with a smile, his lips quivering from the cold.
“Because he lied!” I growled in his face.
He frowns and blinks his eyes rapidly.
“But I wasn’t lying, I made mistake with the numbers…. ”
“I don’t care!” I glared at him. “Come with me, I’ll show you to a bathroom… you should get yourself dried up or you’ll fall sick!”
He grins boyishly, I led him to Anastasia’s room… I guess it’s kinda a good thing she moved out already.
“There’s a new towel in there, I’ll get your clothes dried and you can leave when the rain stops!”
“Yes, ma’am!” I huffed and left him in the room.

Anastasia’s pov ?
Nicklaus’s mansion… 7:32pm…
I open my eyes, I realized I’m still cuddling with Klaus.
We decided to cuddle after bath but I didn’t know when I fell asleep!
“You’re awake!” Klaus states, I nod.
My stomach growls loudly and I feel Klaus’ body vibrate, he’s chuckling…he hugs me closer than before.
He placed a kss on my forehead.
“Is my baby hungry?” He asked.
“I guess!”
“Wait for me here, I’ll go get you something from the kitchen!” He said.
My eyes meets his lower body and my mind races back to our wild sx few hours ago… if we could go wild for the first time, I wonder how wilder it would be later.
“Are you lusting after me?” He asked.
I rolled my eyeballs and scoff, I pulled the blanket up to my chest.
“There’s nothing to see there!” I said.
He moves his hand to his heart and feigns being in pain.
“I’m hurt!” He pouts his lips, which makes him look like a cute five years old!
“I’m hungry!” I cried.
“Fine! Fine! I’ll go get dinner!”
He head towards the door, I stop him and he turns to face me.
“Can I borrow your phone?”
“Sure!” He points at it on the bedside table.
“Password?”
He grins widely and scratches the back of his neck nervously.
“Niklaus!” He said.
I furrow my brows.
“Nicklaus? You used your name?”
“No, it’s a combination of our names!” He said.
Combination of our names?! Isn’t his name Nicklaus?! How can it be a combination of our names?
He must have noticed my confused expression, so he started to explain.
“Ni from Nina… Klaus from Nicklaus, which is niklaus!”
Oh, now I understand him.
“But it still sounds like your name to me!”
“It’s not, my name is Nicklaus.. but my password is niklaus!”
Well, I guess he’s ready to argue with me till dawn.. I won’t be able to keep up with him.
“Fine, fine, it’s a combination of our names!” I agreed with him.
He nods and step out, I reach for his phone and first dialed aunt’s number.. she picks up after a few ring.
“Hello?” Aunt’s voice comes from the other side.
“Aunt, it’s me Anna!” I introduced myself.
“Anna? It’s late, why aren’t you sleeping yet?” She asked.
I smile, aunt is truly like a mother to us, she worries over everything.
“I’ll go to bed soon, I just wanted to confirm the time for Denzel’s operation tomorrow”
She sighs *get back in bed!* I her scold someone in the background… that must be Denzel.
“It’s 3pm, aren’t you coming to be here for your brother?”
“I will”
“That’s good, I’m so nervous right now.. I can already picture tomorrow, is it the same for you?” She asked me.
I understand aunt’s nervousness, this is the day we’ve all been praying and waiting for.. it’s finally happening.
Even I don’t know what to feel.
“Aunt, it’s gonna be fine, there’ll be no complications tomorrow” I told her encouragingly.
“I pray so!”
Me too, I pray everything go smoothly tomorrow.
“Alright, hang up and go to bed young missy!”
“Good night, aunt”
“Good night my little angel”
Little angel? I shake my head, if only she knows this angel is tainted and no longer pure.
My aunt is one traditional woman, she doesn’t believe in premarital s£x…if she finds out Klaus and I did it before our wedding.
I swear, she’d kill me and send me to my parents in heaven.. to see what they gave birth to!
It’s better she doesn’t finds out, thankfully, Klaus didn’t pour his seed in me… There’ll be no fear for pregnancy!
I hear a beep, that’s when I realized aunt just hang up. I rest my head against the headboard and think of who to call again.
Tilda! I quickly dialed her number, first ring, second ring, third ring.. she finally picks up.
“Hello?”
I’m scared she’ll break Klaus’ phone from yelling, so I decided to change my voice.. I cleared my throat.
“Tilda!” I called her in a bold voice.
She paused, I guess she’s processing my voice… I hear her gasp.
“Anastasia Lopez! How dare you leave without a heads up?!” She growls into the phone.
I moved it away from my ear and let her finish her ranting, before bringing it back to my ear.
I laugh lightly.
“Tilda, it’s.. it’s…”
“It’s what?! Speak up!!”
Then I spoke the first word that comes to my mind.
“It’s.. Klaus! That ba$tard! He forcefully brought me to his house, he tied me up, carried me on his shoulder and brought me here…”
She didn’t speak so I continue.
“… I screamed but nobody dared to help me, his eyes were red like fire and his expression was so deadly that even satan would be scared of him…”
“Stop, stop your drama!” She cuts me off.
I laugh and shut up.
“I understand that he’s your fiance, but you shouldn’t abandon your friend because of him… What happened to sisters before dudes?”
“I’m sorry, Tilda, I promise I’ll be coming for sleepovers!”
She sighs.
“Fine, you….” A crash cuts her off. “… I have something to do, I’ll call you back tomorrow!”
“Tomo….” She hangs up.
Why call me back tomorrow? Why not today?!
Just then Klaus comes in with a tray of food, I perceives steaks and my mouth watered.
I open my arms with a smile.
“Come to mama!”

Authoress’ pov ?
7:50pm….
Claudia enters the club and walk straight to a table in a secluded spot, a man is already seated on that table.
“What took you so long?” He asked her.
“Sneaking out of the house is not easy, I almost woke my mom up!”
The man frowns.
“I’m paying you enough, why can’t you get your own apartment?”
“That’s none of your business, get down to business… Why did you call me out?”
The man look around the club, to be sure no one’s listening to their conversation.
“How is it going with that boy? Have succeeded in getting him?”
“No! He is one of the most difficult man I’ve seen, I’ve been by his side for many years.. but he’s still indifferent towards me!”
He glares at her as she speak those words, he grits his teeth.
“That’s because you haven’t applied your charm, make him notice your good features and beauty!”
“And you think I’m not trying? I’m trying ok?”
He gets up, he dips his hand in his pocket and pulls out an envelope, he drops it in front of her.
“You have one week to make him fall for you.. or else, you know the consequences!”
“I can’t make him fall for me when there’s an obstacle!”
“Obstacle?”
Claudia scoffs and stares at him with a smirk.
“I guess you haven’t done your research!”
She gets up and stare directly in his eyes.
“One week? I’ll get the job done!” She snatches the envelope from the table and storms out of the club.
