Courageous(Can i love again?)

Chapter 20

Keira's POV

We arrived at the airport to fly us to Maldives where our 'honeymoon' will be held *sigh*, using my private plane. At least it's not that bad. I've always wanted to go there to see and touch the stars on the ocean.

I know it's just an illusion created by the Bioluminescence produced by the living organism in the water. Well, don't care I just want to see it myself and experience it, so I'm really looking forward to it. That's just the only thing I'm excited about by this honeymoon thingy.

"What? You're staring at me like a psycho." I said to him even though I wasn't looking because I could feel his stares at me. I heard him chuckle so I looked at him with a frown.

"What's funny?" I ask again. He shakes his head while saying "Nothing. I didn't know that my stares have an effect on you." so I turned around then mouthed him the 'whatever' word, and just avoided looking at him but he spoke again.

"I just wanted to say that.. you are so beautiful Keira" He suddenly said so I don't know if it's a compliment or he's just teasing me. It's hard to believe this person. You don’t know if what he’s saying is sincere or not.

I looked at him and I caught him still looking at me. I don't know why but I also stared into his eyes. I was the first to look away then speak.

"Thanks. You too" I said while shrugging. He laugh and said "Me? What? Beautiful?" He asked as like a moron. I just sway my hands while saying "If you want that then go, just shut up I want to sleep" I said and closed my eyes.

"There's a bedroom at the back. You'll hurt yourself sleeping like that" I heard him say. Well, he's right but I'm stubborn so I just ignored him and went to sleep.

Waking up because someone woke me up. I groan and said "Just give me more minutes mom" I said not minding it. I heard a laugh so I frowned but still closed my eyes.

"We're here, my wife" He said, I was surprised and opened my eyes. I woke up immediately when I heard that and remembered that I was married to this man. I frown at him.

"Don't call me that. Will you?" I said irritated. He just smirks at me. Then I noticed that I was in the bedroom, all I know is that I didn't sleep here. I shrug and just ignore it.

"Get out. I need to change. Just give me five minutes" I said with my raspy sleepy voice then I closed my eyes again while sitting, then suddenly he lift me up and carry me out of the plane in bridal style so I shout at him.

"Let me go! Put me down you idiot!" I shouted but he didn't listen, he was still laughing and just kept coming out until he could get me in the car. I crossed my arms and frowned at him, now I'm wide awake because I was annoyed with this man.

"You'll change when we arrived at the beach resort. Don't worry you still smell so good my dear wife" He said mocking me. I looked at him and raised an eyebrow.

"Do you want some fist in your face?" I said threateningly but he just laughed at me. I surrender, no sense if I still argue with this annoying person.

My mom set this whole honeymoon thing for a whole week! Yes, I've been with him all week. But I already have my plans to get away from him.

We arrived at our destination. It's a beach resort where we're the only people.  Yes, we are the only ones on this whole island, we are the only tourists here. My gad mom! I mentally groan. Then I stare at the place, well not bad the view is breathtaking. I smell the fresh air and it makes me smile.

"Don't you want to change?"  I lost my smile when suddenly something struck me in my moment. I glare at him and smirks then walk to the cabin where we will going stay.

It's so beautiful in here. Even the cabin it's so adorable, it has simple features but you can feel the feeling of nature, it's so relaxing.

I wasted no time changing in my swimsuit, I'm so excited to try that beautiful beach, I feel like I'm a child again. I wore a white two piece bikini that really suits my body and a see-through dress and of course sunglasses. Good thing it's no longer sunny so I can enjoy it.

I got out of the cabin and walked towards the beach when someone suddenly stopped me.

"Where are you going?" He asked me while holding my arm. I frown at him and remove my arm from his grip.

"What do you think?" I said while raising my eyebrow.  He then scans what I'm wearing and the lust in his eyes is so obvious. I smirk when he looked into my eyes and I turned my back on him again and start walking.

I immediately came to the water. It's not that cold, it's refreshing. I don't know if this island has that glowing water at night but I'm wishing there is. I started swimming and savoring the feel of the water in my bare skin, then suddenly I felt something touch me so I was immediately surprised and turned around. My eyes widened when I saw King holding my waist while smiling like crazy.

"What the hell?!" I immediately shouted at him and I walked away but he pulled me again so my face hit his chest. He bent down so I closed my eyes then he suddenly whispered something.

"Pretend to be happy. I don't know if your mom put somebody to spy on us, but I saw one earlier who was watching us. He was wearing a staff uniform in here" He said so my eyes widened. My mom? Really? I can't believe it.

"Look at one of the trees, there is someone behind" He whispered to me again, I looked for what he said and yes I spot it, there really is someone watching us. Maybe he noticed that I saw him so he acted as if nothing happened and he suddenly left his place. I sigh and became frustrated.

"I can't believe this" I said then he looked me in the eye and spoke.

"Maybe they just want to make sure that everything's okay" He said in a soft tone, so I kept staring at him. He's so damn hot being wet, water dripping from his hair. Arghh!

Eventually, I felt ashamed because of the closeness of the two of us. I separated and left the water, I never looked at him again. I can feel my face getting hot so I rubbed my face. What is this?
