Dangerous Pursuit

Chapter 25

Jeremy

"I love you," I whisper and kissed her head.

"Hmm...," she half open her eyes, "you can't........remember?.......you despise me." she murmur in her sleep.

Then she finally drifted. I want to ask her why but I am the one who requested her that this night is just for me and her and we don't care about the past and about other people.

I can feel that she has feelings for me also and she is suppressing it. Maybe it is about my relationship with Trisha or Bessie or whoever came into my life after she left.........or still the mysterious Alex that she also knows.

But I chose to be with her now. I want her memory to be with me that I will cherish until I die.

I look at my watch. It's almost three in the morning. I check the phone and everything seems quiet in the yacht and our cottage. I must sleep lightly. I have to guard Sandy.

I hug her tighter and kissed again her lips before I finally drift to sleep.

I woke up and look at my surroundings. For the first time I have a good sleep. I felt the cool sheets wrapping my naked body. I remember the night me and Sandy shared and I can't help a smile that form in my lips.

I look at the time. It's past eleven already in the morning and Sandy is nowhere in sight. Her phone and gun is not here except our bags lying on the floor. I decide to freshen up before we have lunch together. I decide that today will still be me and her...........even the next days. I don't care anymore. She completes me and I want to win her heart.

But something nags in my mind. What if my memory comes back and I find out everything. How sure is she that she is not a part of my future?

For now, I don't care.

I open the door and I see Sandy in the terrace wearing a sundress and her eyeglasses. She is busy looking at the waves of the sea. I hug her at the back and planted a gentle kiss on her neck.

"Good morning my love."

She stiffens for a moment and then relax.

"So what's for lunch? Do you like to check the other resort in the other island?" I continue hugging her and she gently put her arm on top of my arms.

"Perhaps next week, my love. I am enjoying the place."

She called me also my love? Not that I am happy but I feel there's something peculiar on how she said it.

Next week?
Something is going on.

I kissed the lobe of her ears and whisper, "Company?"

She nods.

Shit! We are being watched.

"Or we can check Karibu island. What do you think? They said it is nice to do snorkeling there."

"Yeah, that would be fun. We will go there tomorrow, promise. Come on let's roam around and have lunch." I pulled her inside the cottage.

As soon as we shut the door, I look at her. I know they are hearing our conversation and we must not talk about our real mission.

She signaled me for plan B which means tonight we have to travel by motor boat and go snorkeling until we can reach the island.

So now we have to go out and pretend to be eating at the restaurants of the resort.

Sandy fixed our bag with vacation clothes. She planted a camera inside the cottage. We will travel light tonight.

We walk holding hands like honeymooners. As far as I know I am not pretending. I grabbed the chance to shower her with my touch and kisses and she just meekly smiled. I know she can feel it too.
