|Ranked #1 under Bermuda Triangle (as on 05-09-2018)|
Alexa Lake (Lexi) is an 18 year old with a perfectly ordinary life. That is until she decides to vacation on a small island, dangerously close to the Bermuda Triangle, along with some friends...
Stacey seemed as confused as I was. The source of the sound was glaring at us by the door.
Katylin Collins was definitely not happy.
"You guys haven't slept all night?! Those dark circles make you look like PANDAS!!", she yelled.
She was right. Stacey and I were feeling a bit too jittery to fall asleep after what happened. So we just huddled close and buried ourselves under the blankets. Eventually, exhaustion took its toll on us.
I probably didn't sleep for more than 2 hours before Katie decided to cause damage to our eardrums.
Note to self : Carry earplugs to prevent permanent hearing loss caused by crazy girlfriends.
"Katie! Don't you have anything better to be doing at six in the morning than scaring innocent sleeping girls?!", I yelled back.
Did I mention lack of sleep or food makes me cranky as hell?
She skipped across the room, grinning like a fool, and sat down on the bed. " I have a surprise for you! ", Katie gave us an innocent smile (which she usually gives when she is up to no good).
Oh no! What is it going to be this time?!
Katie became our friend since high school. Initially we didn't like her much because she was a drama queen who could never shut up for a minute and always screamed for the silliest of reasons. But as we got to know her better, we realised that she was actually a very nice person with a big heart.
But that didn't change the fact that she was a wicked little prankster.
Stacey and I exchanged wary glances before looking at her. "You better not get us into any trouble or we are gonna be late for the trip", Stacey commented throwing a glare her way.
"Of course not! I would never dream of it!" She placed a hand over her heart and pretended to look hurt. But the sparkle in her eyes gave her away.
I rolled my eyes and got to my feet after shoving the blankets aside.
"Where are you going?", they asked in unison.
"To freshen up and get something to eat..... So that I am fully prepared for the 'surprise' she is planning to give", I replied.
"It's just that my parents left for London this morning. So we have the whole house to ourselves!", she exclaimed excitedly.
Now that was a sweet surprise. It meant I could walk around the mansion in minimal clothing and not worry about being seen semi-naked by some poor unsuspecting person!
Did I mention that wearing minimal clothing (when I am alone or with my best friends) makes me really happy?
A giggle brought me back from my sweet reverie. The girls burst out laughing.
Obviously they knew my plan.
I gave them a wink, yanked off my pajamas quickly and walked in to the bathroom to freshen up. After brushing my teeth and washing my face I felt the need to eat something before taking a shower.
When I came back into the room, Katie had left and Stacey went in to the bathroom with her towel.
After putting on my bathrobe, I walked out of the room.
This place is HUGE...... I could easily get lost.
The Collins Mansion was an ancient looking colossal building. According to Katie, her great grandfather was born here.
Quite the antique masterpiece...
A few renovations were made.... But it's old charm was well preserved. I just loved this place.
Having come here a few times before, I managed to find my way to the staircase without much trouble.
Now where the hell is the kitchen?!
I could tell my stomach was getting impatient. Infact, ever since my 18th birthday, I had been eating a LOT.....and not gaining an ounce of weight. All my friends were jealous. They said I was "living the dream".
After searching for about 5 minutes, I found the kitchen.
Just as I was about to walk in, I heard a sound and froze.
Someone was in there... Probably Katie....
I decided to peep in... And my jaw dropped open!
In the kitchen stood one of the most handsome man I had ever laid my eyes upon.
He stood there wearing nothing but a towel.
Water was dripping from his wet hair and flowing down his strong glorious body. The droplets moved down his perfect collarbone, to his broad chest, and down to his abs in a rhythmic fashion before finally being absorbed by the towel. He was definitely more than 6 ft tall.
After I tore my attention from his body, I began to observe his face more closely.
Not to be outdone, his face was equally captivating. He had high cheek bones, a sharp jawline, perfect nose and a sexy stubble. I couldn't make out the colour of his eyes as they were closed.
That's when I noticed what he was doing.
His fingers were covered in molten chocolate. He was relishing and licking every bit of it. I stood fascinated by the way his Adam's Apple moved up and down as he swallowed.....

I am hungry...
Lost in thoughts of hunger.... I didn't realise someone or something running towards me, until it was too late to do anything about it.
