The Last Embrace Chapter 9
Advertisement
Every three months, Nanny Aida visits her family and she always brings Jessy along with her.
Jessy finds it exciting every time she meets her Nanny's family. It's seldom she was allowed to see and explore the world outside.
"I miss playing with Ivy, Nana!" exclaimed Jessy.
Ivy was Nana's youngest daughter the same age as Jessy.
Nanny Aida has five children and three of them were already married.
"Okay, don't forget to pack your things tonight because we will be leaving tomorrow morning," said Nanny Aida smiling fondly at Jessy.
It was already eight o'clock in the evening, they were having their dinner.
Adam was listening to the ladies' lively chatter, sometimes, he would glance at Jessy's direction. But she always avoided his gaze. He toyed with the untouched food on his plate. He attends breakfast, lunch, and dinner with the girls because they insisted that it should be how things should be. It's been the arrangement ever since...he just complies with their wishes. He's not consuming the food, he was just toying with them, pushing them here and there on his plate. They don't mind at all, they just want his company at the dining table.
He cleared his throat. "Nana, please don't bring Jessy along with you tomorrow," he pleaded.
Aida looked at Adam with a mixture of amusement and surprised. "Oh, why? I mean what is the reason...?"
"I don't wanna be left alone here," he replied. He glanced at Jessy she was busy cutting the spicy pork steak on her plate. Pretending to be busy...that's it, he told himself wryly.
Jessy has been avoiding him for two days straight. He felt like his confession of love has been rejected completely by the girl of his dream and he was completely devastated. Her cold treatment was killing him!
Nanny Aida, focused her attention on the two teens in front of her. She's trying to figure out why these two young people were not talking to each other. "Hmmm...what's wrong with you, guys?"
Both Adam and Jessy fell silent...

"What do you think, Jess? Do you still want to go with me or stay here?" said Nana Aida.
"I will go with you tomorrow, Nana. I will not miss it for the world," she finally smiled at her but ignored Adam altogether.
Adam sighed deeply...
He felt frustrated!
He put down the spoon and pork on his plate and stood up. "Am done eating. Thank you for the lovely dinner, Nana." He exited the dining room and went upstairs straight to his room.

He lay on his bed, thinking of Jess and her weird behavior recently...
Was he wrong all the time, expecting that she will love him back? But he was damn sure, she has some tiny bit of attraction towards him. 'I guess I was wrong,' he told himself. After all, in real life, pretty girls don't fall in love with ugly looking guys-especially like him. Thinking and hoping she can learn to fall in love with him was just a foolish fantasy created by his lonely heart. He was stupid to believe that Jessy can see through the sincerity of his heart and not focus much on his physical appearance.
He was in deep thoughts, he almost missed the soft knocking on the door.
"Adam, please open the door!"
It's Jessy! His heart somersaulted three times...
Yet, he did not reply.
"Can I come in?" she said.
"Suit yourself..." He answered finally with a grumbling voice. He was planning to give her the taste of her own medicine by giving her a cold shoulder. He turned his back on the door and face the window instead. He heard the door opened.
"Why are you sulking? Why are you in a bad mood today? Are you okay?" she asked.
He was able to detect a huge amount of concern in her voice. The ice covering was slowly melting in his heart...
He felt the intensity of her stare on his back, slowly digging a hole towards his heart. But still, he refused to look at her, maintaining his rigid posture.

Jess sighed deeply. "How long are you planning to ignore me?"
"I should be the one asking you that. How long are you planning to ignore me?" he fired back.
"I'm here...Am I...?" she walks towards the other side of the bed and blocked his vision, their eyes met.
"Kiss me, Adam," she said softly. She wants to know if there's pity involved in her feelings towards him. If he can set her heart on fire with his kiss, then her feelings for him were not born out of pity. In the last few days, she's been a little bit confused about her feelings towards him.
"W-what!?" his eyes widened in disbelief. He was completely taken aback by her boldness. He felt his heart jump and down in glee inside his rib cage.
"Just shut up and kiss me!" she's getting annoyed and a bit shameless too.
The moment her voice penetrated his thick skull, he was already drooling, he was up on his feet and lifted her body from the floor in seconds and deposited her gently on his bed. With his body hard pressed on her, she has no escape. By this time all the cells in his body were getting electrified and hyped up. When Adam's lips descended into her moist lips...Jess closed her eyes...there was a moment's hesitation when she was trying to block his lips from entering her mouth.
Jessy was now feeling relaxed and comfortable under his weight, she's responding aggressively with his kiss, inhibition gone. And this makes their kiss more heated...more satisfying and more euphoric. "I love you so much, Jess," he whispered huskily in her ears. Then his lips claimed her mouth once again. Occasionally, he will grind hard down there just to hear her moaned, he loves the sound of her moaning, seductively sweet. Her moaning drove him crazy to the point of no return, awakening a blinding desire he has been keeping suppressed for so long down there...
Then his hands move on its own, they found their way inside her blouse, hovering above her bra. The moment his fingers molded her breast, she moaned louder and her body start to hyperventilate. Then after a few seconds of heightened frenzy...she decided to stop his hands from further exploration of her upper body, too soon for her liking.
"What do you like best, babe? Kissing or grinding?" he asked her suggestively, in a naughty manner.
"What is grinding?" she asked innocently.
"Like this..." Then he starts grinding again with the lower region of his body connecting to her body parts between her abdomen and her thighs, the heat emanating from her body and her nonstop moaning drive him insane all over! He didn't stop grinding until she told him to stop, and when she finally did, he already has his fill, he slumped on her side, feeling tired yet satisfied.
"Let's kiss some more," she demanded.
"Jesus"...he groaned, then he smiled at her tenderly. "Let me rest a bit..."
"Are you tired?" Then she starts giggling with childlike amusement and he laughed along with her.
"What a tease!" then he starts tickling her on her side.
She has to suppress her laughter, afraid somebody will hear them.
Then he wrapped her tightly in his loving arms. "I love you, Jess," he murmured in her ears. "I love you so much."
"I love you too," she replied, then she snuggled deeper into his arms, nestled comfortably in his delicious embrace.
A few minutes later...he heard her gentle breathing, she fell asleep in his arms like a baby.
'Who says I'm tired?' he smirked at her sleeping form.
"You're mine," he said softly while nuzzling her ears. Then he stopped reluctantly...allowing her to rest.
Adam felt so blissfully happy, so contented having the girl of his dreams sleeping soundly in his arms. He felt that luck favors him today.
This can be considered one of the best nights of his life.

Bleen Fada - The Legendary Pathfinder
It had been decades since dreams started to kill. Today, it's finally over.Mahon was once a general and an impressive warrior. In his dreams. In Nightmare. There, he put an end to the war that plagued mankind for decades. In the real world, however, the war has been raging for millenia, and Mahon is weak, his body frail from all his years spent dream-fighting. But it's time for a new beginning. In a world he knows almost nothing about, he will struggle to climb back to power, a necessity if he wants to achieve his goal. But he doesn’t lack willpower. And he already reached the highest ranks before. Who is to say he can’t do it again? That is, if the Fada let it be… This story takes place in a medieval fantasy world. Swords and schemes are the common ways to assert your place among the powerful. This story follows Mahon on his journey back to power. Not a simple one, as he will uncover some of the deepest mysteries that had been buried deep down along the ages. As of now, 98% of my chapters are through Mahon’s PoV and I want to keep it that way. There will be no unending PoV swaps for multiple chapters. Although war/conflict is one of the main themes, it’s not really a story about war. Instead, expect fights, plots, foreshadowing, progression and adventure from these chapters. It’s my first time publishing a book, and English is not my native language. I hope you will enjoy the story and that you’ll be indulgent enough to point out my mistakes with kindness. I wish to grow as a better writer and provide something that will make you cheer for, and shiver in anticipation. As long as you’re not, it means there is something to improve. Note: It's a slow progression fantasy, and some have raised complaints about the depressing tones and slowness in some of the first chapters. Rest assured, it soon disappears as Mahon progresses. Release schedule : M/W/F at 6:12 am GMT+2
