The Last Embrace Chapter 88

Gavin left Jessy's side two hours after. He teleported himself back into the hotel suite.
He found his friend Caden sleeping soundly on the sofa. Stacy's body was already covered with a blanket. He nudged Caden in the elbow. Caden woke up and followed Gavin outside the door. They waited on the hallways where sofa's with fluffy throw pillows lined up for clients to sit.
A few minutes later, Stacy burst outside the door in a hurry, she went past on Caden and Adam on the hallway, she glared at them sending daggers into their direction.
When she was out of their sight, the two guys chuckled.
They entered their hotel suite and prepared to sleep.
"Gavin, I will sleep on that side!" Caden quickly sprawled his body into the spot where Stacy's body was lying earlier.
Gavin grinned and hit his friends body with the pillow he was holding. "Get over it!"
They closed the light and they started drifting into a blissful sleep.
The next day, the shooting started at 9:00 AM in the morning. The lagoon was still displaying the same tranquil and serene atmosphere, everything is fresh to the eyes 'coz everywhere you look you can see green plants dotted around the lagoon.
Stacy's photos were the first to be taken. She posed up a storm and the director like her easy going nature. It took a total of three hours to finish all her shoots, the photos will be shown in a beauty and travel magazines, leading newspapers and other print ads media to represent~'The Robes & Furs'~ new women's clothing line.
They had a one-hour lunch break and it's now Gavin's turn for the photoshoot in the lagoon. He made different poses, some of the shots were taken when half of his body was submerged in the water. Then several shots were taken with him surrounded by green plants wearing summer attire, sunglasses, and caps on his head.

The whole afternoon passed like a blur. By around 5:00 PM, the photoshoot ended, everyone resigned to their hotel suites to rest before meeting again in the hotel's restaurant for dinner and relaxation in the bar listening to some good jazz music.
Done with their mouthwatering dinner, Mr. Ross announced that the commercial and photo footages were already forwarded to the Boss, if she approves everything then by tomorrow afternoon they will pack up and go back to the city. If there are some photos that need to be re-shot then they will stay for another day in the resort to finish the shoots required.
Stacy has been eyeing Gavin the whole day, wanting to talk to him regarding last night.
When Caden went to the men's room to relieve himself, Stacy approached Gavin quickly.
"What happened last night? Why I woke up alone without my clothes on?" she asked worried, the flirtatious and the loose girl that she was before no longer visible.
Gavin gave her an icy stare. "Nothing bad happens to you. You were never violated by me."
"B-but, what I remembered is that we are both naked in the bed, I straddled you."
"Correction, you're the one who is naked, not me. You strip your clothes except for your undergarments."
A frown appeared on Stacy's head. "I remembered kissing you..."
"Correction again, we didn't kiss. You fall asleep and last night we haven't done anything that will cause you to worry. Next time, if you are drunk, stay in your room and don't invite any random guy for a quick romp. Or else you might find yourself in a dire situation if you ended with the wrong guy. Stacy, please wear some decency in your sleeve." Gavin stood up and left Stacy, her face red with shame and guilt.

Gavin looked back at Stacy with pity before he exited the bar with Caden following him on his heels.
"Did you and Stacy had a fight bro?"
Gavin shook his head. "No. She was just asking what happened last night. I told her that nothing happens. I was about to humiliate her further by showing her the photo of you kissing her on the lips but I changed my mind. She's still a woman and I have high respect for women in general. She had to learn a lesson on how to behave properly like a true lady and not behaved like a slut."
Caden smiled and gave his friend the thumb up sign, admiring his respect for women.
"Can I copy Stacy and our picture in my cell phone bro?" he smiled mischievously.
"No. I will delete it after we are done shooting here and were already back in the city. This photo should not be made for public consumption."
"But bro, I am part of the photo, I am entitled and have the rights to the photo as well," Caden grumbled like a petulant child.
"Enough Caden. Okay, you choose...this photo or one month without a salary?" Gavin grinned.
Caden smiled. "I'm just kidding bro. You can erase the photo any way you like. My salary is far more important than the photo, hahaha."
"Now that's settled let's go back to our room and rest or watch some boring shows on television," said Gavin.
That night, Caden opted to sleep late and watch some basketball sports on TV, while Gavin preferred to lay down on the bed and done some heavy thinking. With the wedding about to take place next week, he was feeling worried regarding Jessy's current condition. She seemed distant, she was no longer the same girl he knew before. More like an empty shell. Although she still allowed him to touch her body, her passion, and love for him was lackluster. He constantly needs to remind her everything about their past together.
The annoying thing was that she seemed to be more interested in the wedding rather than immersing back into their memories. She clearly has no interest to revive everything with him. That really bothers him so much. With his busy schedule, he was getting afraid he might totally lose Jessy one day to his brother.
He felt searing pain squeezing his heart, he gasped.
He released a deep sigh not liking Jessy getting married to his brother. It will be the ultimate blow on their fragile relationship. Once the blood transformation is finished, he will take Jessy away and brought her into a faraway place with him. He will drop everything for her, including his flourishing modeling career.
