The Last Embrace Chapter 341
Advertisement
Stella was eyeing the couple wherever they go, she always subtly follows them. She was looking for that one single moment that Gavin would leave her naive girlfriend alone on her own. It would bee easy to tackle that girl when she was outside the protective presence of her beau.
She will wait for the right time.
As the party was progressing in full swing and the guest were drinking cocktails, vodka, tequila, whiskey, Scotch, Bloody Mary, and other drinks...some guest ventured outside into the beach...there are a few pairs who were already strolling in the white sandy beach and some couple are sitting on the lounger, chilling in the open air.
Stella saw Gavin and his girlfriend going out of the entrance of the hotel heading towards the beach.
She smiled a bit in anticipation.
She had a suite on the 15th floor. She has to change her clothing now for that one single purpose.
Stella entered the elevator that would take her to her suite on the 15th floor.
...
While on the beachfront.
Gavin and Jessy sat down on the lounge chairs with an umbrella facing the beautiful serene-looking sea. The breeze was gentle and the weather on that night was clear and amazingly good.
Gavin took off his tuxedo jacket and wrapped it around Jessy's bare shoulder.
"Wow, this is a splendid sight! The outside view is more pleasant to look at than the inside of the hotel," she said casually.
"Agree. The inside is stuffy because many people are milling around and you will be caught in a conversation with another guest, then taking photos and so on, it's getting tiring and boring as the time is dragging on," he voiced out his opinion. "You will be okay, here?" he asked.
"Yes!" she answered quickly.

"I will get back inside to get our drinks and how about food? Do you want some? Like salad or something?" he said.
Jessy was satisfied with the dinner they had shared earlier, the foods indeed are delicious and looking a bit pricey, but it's all free for tonight's events. "I just want a refreshing Strawberry-Banana Margarita! I can't get enough of it!" she cheekily.
"Okay, I will get one for you in the bar," he said. "Are you sure you don't want to go back inside with me?" he asked.
"No. I will just stay here," she said firmly.
"Alright, I will go back inside now," he said.
Jessy nods her head at him and shifted her attention to the ocean in front of her.
Lovers were strolling on the sandy shore still wearing their evening gowns, holding hands, wow, so romantic! She smiled feeling mushy inside.
She continues admiring the beachfront in all its glory.
She finds it super relaxing sitting in the lounger while admiring the vast calm ocean in front of her.
A few minutes later.
Adam returned to her side with her requested Strawberry-Banana Margarita! Not only one but two glasses!
"Here's your order, Ma'am!" he grinned and put the drinks down into the beach table.
"Thank you so much! Can I give you a tip?" she said jokingly.
Adam smirked and chuckled. "How about a kiss on the lips?" he said.
Jessy obliged and planted a kiss on his lips. "Mwuaahhh! I love you!"
"I love you too!" Adam said. He sat down on the lounge chair beside Jessy.
While admiring the panoramic view of the beach, they were also sipping their drinks.
"You want to stroll in the sand just like them?" he directed his eyes to the lovers strolling in the sand, some women were romantically clinging to their partners.

"Later, after I finished drinking these two glasses of Strawberry-Banana Margarita," she responded.
"Alright, let's just relax here and watch the enchanting stars and the full moon in the sky," he grinned and wrapped his arms lovingly around Jessy.
...
While a few meters away.
Stella was looking at the lovers with jealousy leaping in her eyes. She had already change into black pants and a black sweatshirt with a hoodie that will cover her entire face, later.
She was waiting for Gavin to go back to the hotel to get something so that she will have an opportunity to attack his girlfriend.
She will just inflict some damage on the girl, careful not to get caught and get into her car and flee the hotel's premises as fast as she can.
It's a well-thought plan, something that she can get away providing she moves fast. Now that she was thinking about it, she's getting excited, the adrenaline rush was pumping into her veins. She has to do it right tonight! There is no turning back!
She will just wait patiently for that one moment in time to strike while the opportunity is present.
Let see if Gavin will still love his woman after she's done with her.
Fifteen minutes later.
...
Gavin stood up. "You want more drinks, Jess?" he asked.
Jessy shook her head. "No. I think I have too much drink already," she answered.
"I'm going to the restroom to pee. Wait for me here, after I'll come back, we will take a stroll in the sand before we retire to our suite on the 10th floor," he said.
"Okay, I will wait for you," she nods her head.
Gavin brought the empty glasses with him to return them to the bar.
Jessy shifted her attention back to the sea.
...
Stella was getting impatient while waiting for Gavin to leave his girl alone. She fidgeted on the lounge chair while stealing a glance at the couple every minute. If she loses this chance tonight, there might be no other opportunity anymore. She put her gloved hands in the inside pocket of her sweatshirt.
Then out of the corner of her eyes, she saw Gavin leaving alone going back to the hotel!
Just perfect!
Time for her to move!
...
A moment later, Jessy was getting bored. She rose to her feet and picked up her shoes and carry it in her right hand. She will just stroll around and stretch her body while waiting for Adam. With the shoes dangling on her right hand, she began walking in the sand.
Five minutes later, she already covered a few meters away from the hotel, she was about to turn back when she bumped into someone...
"Oops, I'm sorry," Jessy said.
Jessy picked up the bottled water that was accidentally thrown into the ground by the person she bumped into. She was about to give it back to the person but to her surprise, she noticed that the person was about to hurl something to her face, she covered her face with her two hands instantly...it happened so fast!
The person sprinted away towards the north side of the hotel.

Across the Realms [Dropped]
Disclaimer: I'll leave this on here for anyone to read. The last time I uploaded a chapter was nearly a year ago, and to all the readers who still kept their trust in me after I came back from my umpteenth hiatus, I am sorry. I will not carry on writing this; I started off without the correct foundations of a novel, nor commitment to fully finish it and I do not want to lie to you all once again. Maybe one day, I may decide to re-write the novel, with a new basis or at least a comprehensive starting point with many of the narrative errors cleared up; but, till then, this is goodbye. And, once again, thank you for the motivation you gave me. Even now, I see many emails come through with people commenting. Goodbye. A child blessed by the Astral. An unprecedented destiny. Watch his path, as he marches up the stairway of Heaven. A March of a Sovereign. [Adventure, Wuxia, Martial Arts, Fantasy] This is a Qihuan novel; it has eastern and western fantasy elements. More often than not in Xianxia or Xuanhuan there is a severe lack of character development, being a western writer I'm changing that. My characters, from my totally unbiased view, feel fleshed out and actually have emotions. This is my first attempt at a novel, I'm writing as a means to better convey my thoughts. I will, hopefully, steadily improve chapter-by-chapter. I'm very open to feedback and constructive criticism. As one can see this is a cultivation novel, so you know how this goes. I've decided to jump-start the whole rags-to-riches scenario. He is strong from the start and is given the utility to do so. *The cover art is not my own, all rights reserved to the owner. I will take it down if necessary. *The style of the recent chapters is comparatively different than Chapter 1.

Jalan Suram : The 100 Fire Holders
"Why us?" Still staring at the unusually stationary fire of the candle he was holding, Agung voiced the questions in our mind. "Out of 2 million people living in this city, why are we the chosen ones?" As if on cue, the eerie laughter of children could be heard above us. Holding our own candle tightly, we resolved to ignore them and continued our discussion. It was a matter of life or death after all. More than half of the initial participants had fallen and the building became more crowded as the result. There were now more ghosts than the living and each step was filled with danger from the unknown. Either we solved all the questions now or we would become another addition to the ghost camp. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- There was one thing Novita found out after she accepted an invitation to a suspicious event from a seemingly legal company. Crowded didn't exactly mean safe. As more and more variables were added to the dangerous ritual, the higher the risk of death. At the same time, the higher the risk was, the better the rewards for it. But in the end, was it worth it? Note : This series was posted on scribblehub.com under the same name.

In Pursuit of Bark's Finest
On the frontiers of transhumanity’s expansion into the galaxy thousands of light years from the light of Sol, things can get rather chaotic. There are countless millions of nascent interstellar nations securing their interests, pirate ships prospering off plunder and deniable mercenary work, dissidents setting up their own civilizations, and other groups all trying to push an agenda. When these groups crash into each other, the results can become extremely messy and convoluted. Recently, a frontier nation calling itself the Red Star Union has found itself at the focal point of one such complication. A freighter under their protection has been sabotaged, hijacked in interstellar space, and robbed of its cargo. This would be bad enough even if all it were carrying was luxury goods, but the freighter Nebula Plow was carrying more than just normal trade goods. Indeed, her cargo of Non-Orientable Wormholes for use in starship power plants was both very expensive and very, very dangerous. Now the Red Star Union has to worry about a pirate crew running around with several extra devices capable of converting matter into antimatter with negligible energy cost. With those, the pirates could be capable of inflicting untold damage if allowed to leverage their ill-gotten gains into a stronger position, a possibility the Union finds completely intolerable. Unfortunately, all that the Red Star Union has to go on for evidence is two names; that of the captain, and that of the ship. The Captain is going by the possible pseudonym of Fuller, while the ship is named Bark’s Finest. And thus the orders came down to the Union’s Bureau of Starforce Intelligence: find more information on these pirates, conclusively identify them, and figure out where exactly they’ve gone to ground so that the fleet can crush them before they get established. Of the many agents that the bureau assigned to this mission, one would happen to play an important role: Field Agent Madeline Zargosty. This is her story. This story is entirely pre-written, and will have one chapter released per week. If you want to read it all ahead of schedule and get access to some premium-exclusive bonus content, the entire book is available for purchase; links to the appropriate storefront pages will be posted at the end of each chapter. This story is also being posted to Scribblehub.
