NIKLAUS

Her eyes darted around quickly before turning back to face me. “Where have you been?” she retorted as she crossed her arms on her chest.

“What is that supposed to mean?” I asked slowly, unsure of the game she was playing at.

“I went out to look for you when you didn’t return. You haven’t been around all day.” she questioned.

“Darana,” I spoke. “I’ve been back two hours ago. I have work that demands my attention and when did you of all people start giving a fuck about me? I growled.

She smirked and sauntered close. She rested her arms on the edges of my chair and winked at me. “Maybe the whole marriage thing is beginning to rub off on me, making me do wifely duties.”

“That’s bullshit.” I sneered and she smiled as she traced a line to my neck seductively.

“Is it?” she murmured close to my ear. Fuck, she was so good at what she does. Thankfully, I was better.

Suddenly, I pulled her against me that she was straddling me with my arms around her waist. “I don’t know, you tell me.”

  • Mistress of Seduction: Titterington Empire   Chapter 29

    AUTHOR'S POV “I just got off the phone with Dario, he said Niklaus headed to the factory.” Adan said, placing his phone back in his pocket.“What else did he say?” Lorelei asked as she rubbed her palm anxiously.“Nothing else, but he did say he saw Niklaus storming out few seconds later looking very angry.” He revealed.“Hmm,” Lorelei grunted. “What about Darana?” “Not in sight. He couldn't go into the factory. Too risky.” Adan said with a slight shake of his head.“We could send some men,” Orson offered. “They could snoop around and see if there's anything they're cooking up.”“I'll inform the men.” Adan said as he excused himself to make a phone call.He returned few minutes later. “They'll get the job done. He said with a straight face. No matter the cost.”It was some hours later when Adan received a phone call from his men.“Boss,” the man said gruffly. “The job has been done. It was so easy.” he said with a chuckle.“Brief me.” Adan instructed.“Well, when we arrived we met no

    NIKLAUSI arrived at the factory in the wee hours of the morning. Today was the last day and I was curious to see what the gang had been up to.I was happy Darana had listened to my advice of inviting the rest of the gang members to help her with the project.I wasn't surprised when I found all four of them sprawled on the floor, passed out.I stealthily made my way around their sleeping bodies to the work table where their design plan lay.My eyes widened when I saw what they were trying to create. A necklace.I moved to the cooler in the room and I saw their work laying beneath layers of ice.I carefully brought it out and examined the work of art.Carefully crafted silver stars were joined together to make a clasp at the back and at the center was a pendant like circle emblem which housed a moon like marble.It glittered when I turned it to the side and I could have sworn that the moon like pendant seemed to glow in my hand.Darana had managed to make fantasy a reality and I could

    DARANA“Can someone remind me why we're gathered here again?” Reggie asked as he rubbed his temples.“We're here to help Darana, you dummy.” Adrika explained as she smacked him on the head.“Oww,” he whined as he rubbed his head. “I'm clearly still drunk because why the hell would Darana want our help when she went ghost on us?”“Well, that's because Darana has had a change of heart.” I said as I plopped down on the couch next to him.Gemma swirled around in my office chair as she chewed on the tip of her pencil. “So, what exactly are working on here?” She asked.“Good question. Like I explained over the phone, I'm to come up with something bizarre before the weekend and what's more bizarre than designing my own necklace?”“Necklace?” They all said in unison. “Rana,” Gemma called out softly. “You haven't had anything to do with jewellery since you know…”“Yes, since my parents were killed. That's why I'm doing this. It's more of a challenge and I think I just came up with the perfect

    AUTHOR'S POV The rest of the family members gathered in Adan's study once again. This time their expressions were serious as they spoke amongst themselves.“We can't let this go on,” Lorelei complained tiredly. “I'm done playing servant for that low-life.”Adan's gaze sharpened and he let out a low sneer. “Or you can't bear being ridiculed in front of the people you once ruled over.”Lorelei, stung by his insult, kept her mouth shut. If there was anyone that could get her position back, it was Adan. She couldn't get on his bad side. At least for now. She threw her head to the side and swallowed his insult. Adan turned his attention towards Nola, his eyes hard and filled with anger. “What were you able to find out about their relationship?”Nola adjusted herself on the couch. “Nothing much. While I was still trying to dig up some information from Darana, Niklaus walked in and kept on answering questions on their behalf.”“So there was nothing off about their body language?” Adan inq

    DARANAThanks to a drunk Reggie, I got to Caliste's office in record time. I stepped out of the car as I scrutinized the company behind my sunglasses.I hadn't been to this branch before and if I was right. This was the same office Niklaus worked in mostly. So, this couldn't be a coincidence. It was planned.Reggie drove off before I could tell him my thanks. I could either blame it on the hangover or the fact that he was still mad at me.With a sigh, I shrugged it off and walked into the building, my head held high.The employees bowed in respect as I walked past. A lady dressed in a suit waited by the entrance as I walked in.“Mrs Titterington, how lovely for you to grace us with your presence. Caliste is waiting for you in her office and I've been assigned to lead you to her. My name is Elizabeth.”“Nice to meet you, Elizabeth. You may lead the way.” I replied with equal grace.With a courteous smile, she walked ahead, showing me the offices and telling me about who and whom worked

    DARANA“Is this really the mistress of seduction or have I drunk myself to hallucinate?” Reggie drawled as he lay sprawled all over the couch with bottles of liquor all around him.The house reeked of alcohol and I scrunched my nose in disgust. “Oh my god. What the hell happened here?” I muttered as I made my way through several bottles to get to Reggie.“Regs.” I called out as I shook his body but he remained motionless, passed out on the white couch.Adrika sighed as she began picking the empty bottles and I crouched down to assist her.“Well, this is what happens when one of us goes rogue.” she said softly.My eyes widened and I paused in my actions. “Rogue? I didn't go rogue. You guys know what I'm dealing with.”“Do we?” She intercepted. “Because it seems like you're having the time of your life.” “Taking over a jewellery brand and going on your honeymoon in a few days time. It's all over the news.”‘The news of my honeymoon was out already?’ I thought to myself. Niklaus hadn't
