Natasha Alimojeth had already gotten addicted to her new lifestyle and the thoughts of her husband was diminishing from her. His best friend was filling that void he left and much more occupying her with comfort. It's been two months now that this new occurrence had been happening.

And sometimes she imagined that if she had met Desmond Darcott way before time. She would no doubt have considered an altenative for Prince Denning. She applied some makeup to her face which she admired.

"Graceful" she exhaled. She was going on recreation to some ocean resorts with Desmond and she tried to look as casual as she could.

As much as she wanted to have Desmond in her life, she didn't want to give him the impression that she was desperate about him replacing Prince Denning, because from her look of things, the young man seemed to be taking things pretty slow. She sighed. She still tried to look as elegant as she could.

Desmond was already waiting outside for Natasha. It was a pretty lovely evening and the atmosphere just seemed so right.

The Palace trees provided the required oxygen for life and the flowers just seemed enchanting. Natasha Alimojeth finally came out to find Desmond Darcott staring at the palace compound and his countenance seemed to be admiring the nature.

"Hello" Natasha whispered softly. A smile appearing on her lips. Desmond Darcott turned around "huhh? Oh, I'm sorry Princess Natasha, I was lost for a bit, can we?" He said. "Sure".

They both climbed unto the vehicle and the driver started off. Just for a moment, Natasha glanced over at Desmond who was now looking through the window. He looked so relaxed. He was in a cotton collared check shirt and wore a pair of cooperate pants.

He had pulled up his sleeves so that his gold watch is very visible. He only wore a pair of leather cover slippers and he looked minimally muscular. He so much resembled Prince Denning in appearance and in almost everything else.

Finally they got to the Banzian seaports. And Natasha suddenly realized the driver did not head towards the resorts but the seaports. "Desmond are we heading to some other part of the continent?" Natasha strangely asked. "Yes I changed my mind" Natasha felt strangely surprised but refused to question his choice. Desmond suddenly added, "we aren't heading to another continent though, just trying to while away time on the ocean" He said looking straight and not facing Natasha. Just then, a passenger ship pulled over " let's go" he requested her hand.

They both climbed onto the ship and Desmond Darcott signalled the Captain that they were ready. Gradually, the ship started moving.

There was a dead silence in the ship for unknown reasons over a period of time and at the point where the ship was in the middle of the waters and far away from any the land area or Island, Natasha pulled accross to the railings of the ship and wondered for no reason if she was in her right mind. She was married to a Prince and that was enough reason for her to be self disciplined about hanging out with another men even though nothing may be going on between them. What will happen if Prince Denning found them in this state? She thought. "Well, after all Prince Denning does not care since he doesn't love me anyway".

She turned around to find Desmond Darcott who was already staring at her from a distance. And from observation, he appeared he must have been observing her for long. He looked sober or uncomprehendable or deep in thoughts. Natasha sighed "So did we came all the way to the sea for some "silence" treat, I don't get whats going on in your mind?" She asked him. Desmond also knew they had been silent all along through the while they were on the ocean. He walked towards her and rested on the railings "probably the silence is concealing a message" he said, Natasha was confused, "a message? What message?" Desmond raised up her chin to his face "a defiant message of the heart" he stated and placed a hard kiss on her lips that dominated and uneased control . After some minutes, he eventually pulled away. "I've been keeping this for so long" he said with an unfathomable expression.

Natasha didn't know whether she should be shocked or surprised but all she knew was she that she wanted it "I thought I should withdraw this part of my feelings but I can't deny my emotions any further and no matter what I'ld pass through from now, I'm not giving up on you" He said confidently. Natasha could not help surpress her tears "Desmond, I love you" she hugged him. "Yes, I know" he covered her.
