Reina's point of view

I swore I could hear my heart pounding in my ear. For some strange reasons, that dubious smirk on Niklaus' lips scared me. But then, I was Reina, daughter of Sakuzi, and nothing on earth is supposed to scare me.

"What are you doing here?" I composed myself, making my voice deeper and displeased by his unwelcome appearance, "You have no right to barge into my place,"

Niklaus snorted, he shot up to his feet, adjusting his collar saying, "Fine, you want to play, let's play,"

"I don't know what you're talking about but you have to leave my place or else.."

"Or else what?" he challenged my threat, using that opportunity to draw nigh to me.

Great, I'll probably have to fight my way out of here.

He was approaching me the way a predator would to a prey. He wanted to tie me down to a corner where he could trap me easily but I saw through his plan. This is why we're moving away from each other with tactically calculated steps.

"I might look simple Niklaus, but you don't want to mess with me," I said to him, eyeing his movements.

"So tell me then, Maya, who's your backer?" he smiled sexily.

Oh, was he trying to charm me into spilling the truth? Nice try. Just because I was extremely attracted to him - I finally admit that- doesn't mean I'm going to spill the whole can of beans to him. Moreover, you heard; he's ready to play the game.

"You must be so curious to know," I bit my lips seductively, watched the way his eyes flickered to it, he swallowed greedily.

"Yes, I want to know," He added, "Neither are you denying you're Maya," He noticed that.

I'm tired of pretending.

"Catch me," was the only word I said to him and jumped over the sofa intending to reach the entrance door when someone pushed me to the ground with all his weight.

"Oof!" The breath was knocked out of my lungs as I landed on my stomach. Discovering he was crushing me with his weight, Niklaus got up to his feet, pulling me up with him.

"Ouch, that hurts," I yelped when he grabbed my hand together from behind, my back turned to him.

"If you think you can beat me at this game again, Reina? Then, you're in for a loss," He hissed into my ear, the heat sent shivers down my spine.

I laughed, throwing my head back on his shoulder, and watched as his eyes rested on the swell of my breast. He gulped, turns out I wasn't the only one turned on.

"Where are my kids, Reina?! " He growled, trying to fight against the attraction between us which I'm hundred percent sure he can feel.

"Your kids are fine, Niklaus," I answered.

I don't know how he confirmed I was Maya but he was still slightly stunned when I admitted to being her.

"Can you unhand me, now?" I asked of him, head still resting on the crook of his shoulder - And men, the view from my position was sexy.

"No, I don't trust you," He answered without hesitation.

"Ouch, that hurts. So you don't trust Maya?" I purred, deciding to do some emotional and physical manipulation, intentionally rubbing my backside against him.

His breath hitched but Niklaus showed no other reaction to what I was doing to him. Fine, Let's see how much he's going to last.

"I trust Maya but I don't trust Reina and right now you're Reina. So where are my kids, Reina?" he demanded.

I chuckled, " If you want to know where Allen and Ailee are, you would have to torture the truth out of my mouth - which I know you can't do- So make this easier on yourself by letting me go," I gave him a way out.

I knew Niklaus loved Maya- technically me- too much to hurt her. But this was for his good, the moment he walks into my father's place to get the twins, he becomes a lamb to the slaughter. I don't even dare to think what my father would do to him. I don't want to find out at all.

"Guess what Reina?" Niklaus looked down into my eyes, holding it, "I fully intend to torture you,"

"What?" There was confusion on my face, what was he going to do?

Then I felt it, sensed his hands slip inside my shirt. Oh no, it dawned on me, I knew what he was planning.

"Niklaus, don't," I tried to struggle out of his grasp but he single handedly held my hands too tight.

"You don't understand that I'm protecting you here," I said.

"Well, I gave you too many chances but you leave me with only this choice. Though I don't know what you're protecting me from, you should know I don't need it. What I need is my kids," He declared and moved his hand to my breast.

My breath quickened as his hand started cupping, rubbing my breast through the bra.

"Where are my kids Reina? " he breathed into my ears, making me shudder.

"You're getting nothing out of my mouth," I answered, breathlessly. Gosh, he was good at this. No wonder, father was worried about me hanging around with him when he first gave me the mission.

"You can't fight this, Reina. We both are insanely attracted to each other and by the time I'm done torturing you with pleasure, you'd vomit the truth," He confessed his plan which I had pretty much figured out.

"You can try, but I'm stronger than I look," I said firmly even though my body was throbbing with need.

"Fine, Let's see how far you can keep up your guard," Niklaus issued the challenge and without warning, slipped his hand into my shorts.

"Don't do -"

"Do this?"

He tugged my panties to the side, rubbing his fingertip up and down my labia. I gasped, throwing my head back as the pleasure flowed through me.

"Would you answer me, now?"

"N-no,"

Niklaus wasn't kidding when he talked about torturing me. Each time he touches me, every logical thought flies out of my head while trying to stay rational, else I fall into his trap. It was a real challenge.

Niklaus was prepared for me: his fingers began to move faster against me, my moans reverberating across the room. My hips began to buckle up as I felt my insides clench, I knew I would reach my orgasm soon. But just when the blissful feeling was about to explode within me, Niklaus withdrew his hands.

I had never felt frustrated in my entire life than now, I needed more. There was this fire burning in my veins and I needed him to quench it.

"Niklaus, you're dead meat once I'm free!" I roared in anger mixed with irritation.

"You can free yourself by answering my question and as a bonus, have me as well," He offered a tantalizing proposal.

God knew how much I wanted to give in but I couldn't.

"You don't have an idea of what I'm protecting you from," Was my reply.

"Then I'm guessing that's a no,"

Niklaus suddenly let me go or so I thought because when I turned around, his lips covered mine, I was unable to resist. It was a soft, demanding kiss that I returned passionately.

We were on fire, engulfed by this insane need for skin to skin contact. Perhaps, due to the fervor between us, I forgot his plan to rip the location of the kids out of my mouth.

Niklaus kissed my neck, I moaned. He moved to nibble on my ear without trying to coerce me and I lowered my defenses - maybe he was lost in the moment.

Hungry with need, we peel each other's clothes off hungrily until I was in nothing but my birthday suit while Niklaus' zipped down pants barely hung his waist. He lifted me off the ground and I wrapped my legs around his waist.

He pushed me up against the wall, kissing me as I wrapped my arms around his head, digging my hand into his scalp and pulling him closer. I had this flash of memory that was so intense that it overlapped with reality- It wasn't helpful at all since it made me hungrier for him. But then, I established a fact: we've done this before.

Niklaus knew it was time when my hips began to grind against him. While his hand held my waist, anchoring me to him, the other set free his arousal and entered me without warning.

"My God!" I screamed, my eyes rolling to the back of my head. He was so damn huge yet filling. I began to moan lasciviously as he thrust into me.

Niklaus picked up speed, pounding into me with careless abandon just the way I liked it. It was as if he knew me, knew what my body wanted.

I bit into his neck, nails digging into his back as I felt my organism around the corner when he stopped abruptly. Like stilled completely.

My eyes opened, "What are you doing? Why did you stop?" I pulled out a ragged breath. I was just on the verge of experiencing that bliss when he stopped and my body was tingling for it.

"Where are the kids, Reina?" He asked, refusing to move.

It dawned on me, this was the climax of his plan all along. I began to wriggle and move, trying to find some relief but he stopped every form of movement.

"Niklaus, you can't do this to me," I was on the verge of crying. This was too much.

"The kids,"

He made it worse by kissing down my neck, my body shuddered, I can't take this anymore.

"They are with my father," I confessed, seriously hoping the interrogation was over. I guess I was just deceiving myself because the Niklaus I knew always wants it all and that was confirmed when he asked,

"Who's your father?"
