Dangerous Pursuit

Chapter 23

Jeremy

"Are you still thinking of Zac?"

Sandy just glance at me and return her eyes on the waves of the sea. We are now heading back to the island.

"I just hope he is safe."

"I am sorry Sandy but I have to make a choice."

"I guess so."

"Look, I can't leave you alone but I promise you after I see you safe in the island and we can give Madam Grace the data, I will go back for Zac."

She looks at me and shook her head. "Are you suicidal also? And why would you do that?"

"I know I lost my memory but you can teach me the ins and outs of the organization. I can still go there as Jeremy and I will tell them I lost my memory and I can only remember few things. From there I can check how is Zac."

"If they will suspect you?"

"And I will join Zac. We don't have choice, Sandy."

"Shit! You also want to die?" she shouted at me.

"I am doing it for you, Sandy." I shouted back.

"For me?"

She looks confused now.

"I am doing it for you. I want you to be happy........I see how you care for Zac......and...."

"What do you mean? I care for both of you. You are both important to me."

I start to stammer, "Look.....I can see that you have feelings for Zac and what only preventing you to live happily is this damn organization. So, I am thinking........if this is over you deserve to be happy...."

"With Zac?"

"Yeah, with him." I felt the pain in my chest.

"I am happy with Melissa. That's more than enough Jeremy." Her face became sadder.

"And Zac?"

"I care for Zac as I care for you Jeremy. We are team. We look at each other's back. We are family. I feel guilty that I can't do anything for him."

"But he kissed you.....and..."

She laughed bitterly, "You kissed me too."

Damn!

Suddenly Sandy panics and check her phone.

"Shit! Jeremy stop the yacht! Someone is following us. Go change your navigator to Miranda resort going to the island of Bask"

She run inside our cabin and I stop the yacht on its autopilot and change the direction of the navigator.

I followed Sandy who is busy keeping our gadgets in a safety area.

"Change in your shorts and put on your glasses." She threw me a printed shorts and she remove her clothes in front of me wearing only her two-piece bikini. She tops it with a robe to cover her wound but intentionally did not close it to reveal her bikini. She put her wide glasses to mask her face.

"Let's go up to the deck now."

She moved fast and I just followed her.

She suddenly stops and I bump into her. She looks at me and pulled my hand while going up the deck slowly this time.

When we reach deck she starts kissing me.

Whatever is her play, I will go along. I start to kiss her and pull her near me while I rest my hands at her back.
