The Last Embrace 204 Romancing In The Lake

Jessy, Adam and Nana Aida gathered in the dining room, they were eating dinner.

"You guys will sleep here?" Nana Aida asked.

Jessy and Adam nodded their heads.

"Yes. We will be here until tomorrow, Nana," Adam said he looked at Jessy for confirmation.

Jessy nodded her head. "Yes, we will be here the whole day."

Nana Aida smiled. "That's good! It's nice to have you here once in a while, just like yesterday once more..." she said reminiscing the past.

Jessy and Adam smiled.

"Sorry Nana, we're just busy, but we love to visit you here if we have more free time," Adam said.

"Once in a while is fine with me, but once a week is much better," Nana Aida grinned.

They laughed and continue eating.

After dinner, Adam and Jessy volunteered to clean the table and wash the dishes.

"Leave the was.h.i.+ng and cleaning of everything to us, Nana," Jessy said.

"Okay, thank you, kids!" Nana Aida went to the living room to watch her favorite prime time show on TV.

A few moments later, the couple was done with the ch.o.r.es in the kitchen, they were looking at each other pondering what to do next.

"Lake? or the Woods?" Adam said.

"I miss the lake!" Jessy answered. "We can go to the woods after," she said.

Adam smiled. "So—it's skinny dipping on the lake?" he suggested naughtily.

Jessy blushes. "Awww...love that!" she replied jokingly.

Adam wrapped his arms around Jessy and engaged her mouth with a torrid kiss turning on the atmosphere around them that's already crackling with suppressed emotions wanting to resurface clamoring for explosive release...they kissed pa.s.sionately for a few minutes.

A moment later, done kissing they looked at each other with tenderness in their eyes.

"I love you so much, Jess!" Adam murmured on her ears.

"I love you too, Adam!" she responded.

"Let's now change into our swimming attire and enjoy the cool refres.h.i.+ng water of the lake," Adam said.

They exited the kitchen and walked hand in hand climbing the stairs towards the second floor, they entered their respective room and changed into their swimwear.

While Nana Aida was enjoying her favorite TV show in the living room.

A moment later.

The couple went down the stairs ready to swim.

"Nana, wanna join us bathing in the lake?" Jessy said.

Nana Aida shook her head. "Nah, I will stay here and watch TV, you guys enjoy the lake!" she said.

The couple proceeds to the door and steps outside the mansion.

Jessy ran towards the lake laughing hard while Adam was tailing her from behind.

She jumped into the deepest area of the lake creating a big splash, then Adam followed suit creating a much bigger splash of water.

"Race you to the other side, Jess!" said Adam. "No cheating!" he swam quickly and fluidly towards the other side of the lake.

Right on the other side, Jessy was already waiting for him, grinning from ear to ear.

"I win!" she said.

Adam pouted. "I said no cheating!" he went to Jessy's side and embrace her.

"I'm not in the mood racing with you, if I don't use my power you will win all the time, so I just cheated to win," she giggled. "But I love watching you swim you are such a natural-gifted swimmer!" she said.

"Okay, I will swim for a while. Are you okay here—just watching me?" he said.

Jessy nodded her head. "Yes! swim to your heart's content, I will just stay here and enjoy my swimming," she said.

Adam made more five rounds of swimming from end to end, then he finally settled beside Jessy. "Let's go there under the shade of the tree and make a bonfire!" he suggested.

The couple steps out of the water and walked towards the tree. They gathered dried leaves and branches needed for the bonfire, once everything is ready, Adam waved his hand at the file of dried woods and leaves and started a fire using his hand...the fire was starting to burn brightly.

They sat down facing the bonfire.

"Are you feeling cold, Jess?" Adam draped his arms around her shoulder and drew her body close to his.

"No I'm not...because you are here by my side," she edges closer to him seeking his warmth.

"So, how's the Facility? What's happening in there? How're my parents and my siblings doing? How everyone is doing?" Adam asked, eager to know what's the latest development in the Facility because he seldom goes there.

"Your parents and your sister are okay, as for Zain, he made a promise to your parents that he will announce to the whole clan that he and I will go on our separate way, that we are no longer a couple...he will do it in the months to come. Then he starts seeing Hannah again. The last time I saw him he seems to be mellowing down. He no longer hurts Hannah. I am hoping Zain will finally change for the better," Jessy said.

Adam's face lighted up. "Wow! That's the best news I ever heard so far! Letting you go is very hard for my brother, I'm sure even if he set you free, he will still harbor deep hatred towards me. I just hope he can find it in his heart to forgive me when the time comes that we will see each other face to face," he said.

"If you want to see your brother and talk to him, bring me along with you," she said.

"Why?" Adam asked.

"I just want to be there when you two will have a conversation, I just want to make sure that you won't transfer your power to him," Jessy said.

Adam looked at his girlfriend's face. "Huh? I only suggested that before because he still can't get over you, but now that he seems to be moving on and accepting Hannah gradually then I will no longer pursue it. After he announced to the clan that the marriage he had with you is null and void then that will be the day I will finally have a heart to heart talk with him and ask his forgiveness. I want to repair our broken sibling relations.h.i.+p and bring back our closeness before," his expression was one of longing and a bit of sadness.

"Don't worry, based on Zain's current condition he is getting better psychologically and when he's emotionally ready, you two can finally iron out your differences and become closer again," she said.

"Hope so, I will be the happiest when that time comes," he said. "How about your blood transfusion?"

"Fine as usual," she answered.

"Any news lately—?"

"Ah...your father, sister and I recently rescued fifty starving and close to death vampires, they are hiding in the cave at the foot of the mountain a thousand miles from the Facility..."

"Really—? When did that happen?"

"The other day..."

Adam wore a grim expression on his face.

"I know that many scattered vampires are hiding somewhere, but they won't be able to hold on much longer once they can't feed on human blood to sustain their existence," he said sadly.

Jessy rubbed Adam's arms trying to console his sadness. "How's your modeling career?" she asked trying to change the topic.

"Fine, boring as usual but the pay is good, it's a lucrative profession," he said.

Jessy looked up in the sky above. "Wow, look! It's a full moon tonight! The moon is s.h.i.+ning so bright up in the sky!" her face was full of wonder.

Adam watched his girlfriend's pretty face, love s.h.i.+ning in his eyes. He leaned forward, once his mouth touches the skin on her neck he began showering b.u.t.terfly kisses on her face and neck.

Jessy moaned loving his kisses...a full-blown make-out session ensued between them under the shade of the tree.

Adam stopped kissing Jessy. "Let's go to our rooms now and continue where we left off," he suggested naughtily pinching her thighs, fondling it aggressively.

"O-okay..." she agreed.

With arms linked to one another, eyes gazing lovingly at each other's face, the loved up couple went back into the mansion looking forward to a highly charged steamy night ahead.
