Chapter 94


    A few hours back.


    Benjamin was driving the motorhome, and they were yet to arrive at the beach. Selena started reading a


    book after talking for an hour or so with her daughters. Veronica just watched videos on her mobile, but


    Reba took a peek at the book her mother was intently reading. She read a song ‘The Sweetest Lover’


    sung by a character called Stussy Junksman.


    “Sweetest


    He


    Who


    Takes your heat But still looks neat


    And gives you treats


    Better than the sweets

    And never mistreats or cheats


    For he owns a well of love


    That never depletes.” “That’s pretty deep, Mom. Which book is it from? Let me see the cover,” Reba


    said. “It’s from a fantasy novel,” replied her mother, refusing to fold the book while she was still reading.


    Coming back to the present.


    As Benjamin closed his eyes and waited for her to kiss him, she remembered the song, and her heart


    swelled, for she thought it fit Benjamin perfectly. Though he wasn’t really friendly with her family, he


    always treated her like a princess and never mistreated her. Though kissing someone with a big beard


    and mustache wasn’t her preference, she really didn’t care about such trivialities at the moment, for the


    yearning of her heart for his love has grown over her and began to blossom in many ways. Maybe that


    was why, even though he wasn’t touching her, she felt like he was pulling her with invisible force. She felt


    attracted to him. She briefly nced at his barely visible lips before looking at her sweetest lover’s face


    again and moving forward as she closed her eyes, also. “There’s the ship!” a loud voice echoed around.


    “There they are!” It was Selena’s voice. Reba and Benjamin looked in the direction where there were


    two boats heading toward them. Selena and Veronica were on board. Selena was using binocrs.


    “Were they about to kiss just now?” she thought. “I can never let that happen! Not while there’s breath in


    my lungs!”


    Selena then spoke through the mic attached with a loud speaker. “Reba, don’t listen to him! Don’t be


    fooled by him!” Their two boats closed in and stopped next to Benjamin’s boat.


    “Come over to our boat,” Selena said, waving her hand repeatedly.


    “Mom!” Reba’s jaw ckened. “Are you serious?” How could she get to the other boat with her ankle


    being in a tricky situation, still?


    The pair of fulmars went over to the two ships and began picking a fight with them. “Go away, you shitty


    birds!” Selena yelled at them through the mic, but that didn’t work. She told the guards to shoot them


    down, but they gave a warning shot with the gun and set the birds in fleeing mode. “Trashmin, you better


    send my daughter over to my boat,” Selena warned, “or…” “It’s too risky to send her over a rope or even


    adder with her ankle not fully healed,” Benjamin told her, but she shook her head.


    “Uh-ah,” she looked at the bodyguards. There were a total of eighteen of them. Eight on one boat, and


    ten on the other. “Go and bring my daughter.” The bodyguards began to throw robes, but Benjamin


    started the engine and drove away from there, shocking everyone. “What are you idiots doing?” Selena


    yelled at the driver and the bodyguards. “Chase him! Don’t let him out of sight!”


    She had been to sea many times, so she was not afraid of driving fast on the waters, though Veronica


    looked so ufortable she felt like she might pee any second. When their boat was going too fast,


    Reba also felt scared. “B-Benjamin, slow down.”


    “Just grab me and close your eyes, Reba,” he said. “That will do the trick.”


    “Grab you?” she hesitated for a second but then did what he said. She hugged him from behind, rested


    her head against his warm and sturdy back and closed her eyes. As the boat dashed on the waters and


    moved up and down over the small waves, their bodies moved in sync. Her chest was touching him and


    fueled his sense of adventure some more. He kept taking random directions and made the chasers work


    a lot


    Reba kept hugging him throughout, and time passed pretty fast for her. After some rough


    realize that they finally reached the shore. She opened her eyes, and she was right, but she didn’t look


    happy for some reason. She wanted to keep hugging him, but she had to loosen her arms around his


    waist.


    He turned to her and looked at her. “You are not feeling dizzy or anything, are you?” “Mm, no,” she


    slightly shook her head. “Then let’s get going.”


    (Where?”


    He smiled and picked her up into her arms and jumped from the boat. “Kya!” she screamed in a bit of


    surprise, but hended safely and ran on the shore. “Wait, you little bastard!” Selena’s boat just reached


    the shore, and she shouted at the bodyguard to lower adder and even hit them with the mic for not


    responding fast enough to hermands. The bodyguards chased Benjamin on the shore, warning him


    that he better stop, or they would make him regret his actions. However, their taunts didn’t work on


    Benjamin. His speed was constant and fast as though he was running a marathon. The guards gave it


    their best, but they couldn’t catch up with him and eventually stopped.


    After going past tall rocks, Benjamin stopped. There was a small cave with tables neatly arranged, and a


    small pile of coconuts next to the table. Both of them sat there. As Benjamin was catching his breath, s?e


    was smiling. “You can try in the Olympics for running.”


    Benjamin cut the coconuts with the knife and put straws in them. However, she tossed one coconut


    aside, startling him. “Why did you throw that away?” he asked. She pulled the coconut in his hand toward


    her and put another straw in it. Now, he understood why she had thrown the other coconut away. She


    wanted to drink together from the same coconut! Her heart fluttered as though it had grown wings.


    Looking into each other’s eyes, both of them slowly sipped the coconut water, not wanting to finish it


    soon. Nevertheless, it finished sooner than they thought. Benjamin cut another coconut, and they


    repeated it once more. This way, they emptied seven coconuts together. By the end of it, she was


    rubbing her little belly and shook her head when he reached out for the eighth


    She looked toward the sea. With the moon’s reflection falling on the waters, glinting off of the countless


    ripples and waves, creating their own reflections on each miniature surface curve, the ocean never


    looked so surreal. Just like how the moon lit up one spot in the otherwise dark


    itting before her has lit up her heart which otherwise would have still been so indifferent and cold to the


    warm things of life. She leaned forward and sped his hand. “Thank you, Benjamin.” He didn’t exactly


    know why she was thanking him, so he looked a little confused. “For everything, I mean,” she said. “I


    want to know you more. I want you to know me more.” Her upper body drew near to him, desperate for


    his warmth. Every cell in her body hungered and thirsted for him as she surrendered herself, wishing to


    speak to his lips through hers and more.


    He couldn’t resist her either and was about to lean ahead and reach her. “Trashmin!” the unsettling voice


    of Selena reached their ears. “NO. NOT AGAIN!” Benjamin went nuts.
