Chapter 10

I stepped out of our tent after putting on my simple white swimsuit, ready for a swim. We had already set up all our things under a big tree. I’d finished vlogging earlier, and Arthur had even helped me take some shots. He’s actually pretty good at it. He’d tell me the best angles, and his shots turned out amazing. I found myself liking him even more because he was so supportive of my vlogging. He even told me he watched one of my videos and found it really engaging and entertaining.

Of course, his praise boosted my confidence, and yes, I was giddy about it. When he’s like this, I honestly feel like I might stay with him longer than planned. This was just the start of my road trip, after all. It wouldn’t make sense to stop everything just for one sweet and romantic guy. But Arthur is really my type. If I leave him now and come back later, what if he already has someone else? I shook that thought off and decided to enjoy the adventure simply with him for now.

I also captured a few photographs of the two of us, but solely for my personal collection. I preferred not to share them, partly to maintain our privacy. If my mother were to see them, she might react strongly and insist that I return home. Not that she could stop me, but I know she wouldn’t leave me alone.

Besides shooting my vlog, Arthur even cooked lunch earlier. He packed it neatly in a lunchbox, and we ate together. He’s really so reliable. Honestly, I wonder why he doesn’t have a girlfriend or wife. He’s not just amazing in bed. He takes care of me so well. Lucky for me, I guess, because I wouldn’t be here with him if he were taken.

The swimsuit I brought was quite daring. My breasts were almost spilling out, and the bikini bottoms were basically a thong, showing off the curves of my butt. But that was okay. He assured me we were completely alone here. I saw him standing on the rocks near the flowing water, already wet and wearing only tight swimming trunks. I nearly drooled. His body glistened, and I couldn’t help but notice the large bulge in the center. I smiled and bit my lip. It was only fair since we were both practically naked.

I walked up to him, and when he turned around, I waved. His eyes sparkled as they swept across my body, and I felt a rush of heat wash over me. My whole body shivered in response, and my nipples hardened, clearly visible through the thin fabric.

When I got close enough, he pulled me by the waist, and our lips met immediately. I cupped his cheek and deepened the kiss until we were both breathless. We smiled at each other as we pulled away. He gave my side a little pinch, then flicked at my now-sensitive nipples.

“That swimsuit is wfar too sexy baby. If we had company, I’d drag you back to the tent and keep you there all day… doing wicked things to you,” he teased in his deep voice, kissing the top of my breast.

“Daddy, come on… This is all I brought! And don’t talk like that. I’m already getting wet,” I pouted. He grinned, and I flinched when his hand brushed between my thighs.

“You really are, baby…” he murmured, pressing his fingers against me. I moaned softly as he added pressure.

“Maybe we should just go back to the tent, hmm?” he whispered, teasing me further. His kisses trailed down my neck, and my body responded instinctively. I was always so responsive to him. He could turn me on so easily.

“Mmm… As much as I want to, Daddy, let’s enjoy the falls first. Didn’t you say there’s a cave behind the waterfall? I want to go there. You can do your wicked ways with me inside.” I gave his growing bulge a playful squeeze, and he groaned in return. He held my face and ran his tongue slowly along my lips. I responded eagerly, pressing myself against his wet body. He grabbed my butt and gave it a firm squeeze.

“You look so hot right now, Ayana. I can’t stop myself. Did you wear this skimpy swimsuit just for me?” He asked, tugging on the strap of my top. He lowered his head and suckled one of my nipples, even through the thin fabric.

“Ahhh… Daddy… Later, okay? We still have lots of time. I want to swim now. The water’s so clear, and there are little fishes too,” I said, giggling as he laughed and kissed me again.

“You’re right, baby. Let’s enjoy nature first… then I’ll enjoy you later,” he grinned, pinching the tip of my nose. I giggled and playfully smacked his chest. He caught my hands and kissed them gently.

“The water’s not too cold. Let’s go?” he invited.

“Yes, Daddy!” I replied excitedly.

We kissed again, and he helped me into the water. He was right. It wasn’t cold at all, just the perfect temperature. He held my hand as we waded toward the waterfall. Once we reached the middle, where the water was deep, our bodies naturally came together. We looked into each other’s eyes. I rested my hands on his shoulders while he held me by the waist.

The place was beautiful and romantic, but maybe it just felt that way because I was with Arthur. I touched his cheek and ran my thumb along his lips. I stared at his face and couldn’t believe he was 50 years old. He still looked young, like he was in his mid-30s. And I was honestly amazed by his sexual stamina. I had to ask, even though I hesitated at first.

“Why didn’t you ever get married?” I asked softly. He paused briefly, then gave me a gentle smile.

“I’ve been waiting for you to ask that… but you still caught me off guard,” he said tenderly, making me smile.

“I’m just wondering, Arthur… You’re strong, sweet, caring… You’re so easy to fall for. Did you know that?” I kissed the tip of his nose. “Were you divorced? Do you have any kids?” He laughed out loud and pulled me closer.

“I’ve had girlfriends, but I was never married, and I don’t have kids. I guess I just couldn’t commit to a relationship I wasn’t sure about. And maybe… I never found the woman I truly wanted to spend my life with. That’s why I’ve stayed single,” he answered sincerely, his eyes focused on mine.

“Is that so? Then what if I stay… and you realize I’m the one?” I asked. He didn’t answer right away but held my gaze. Something shifted in his expression as he held me tighter. My heart pounded louder and faster, an unfamiliar but exhilarating feeling.

“That won’t be just a ‘what if,’ Aya… Because I already know you are,” he said sincerely. My cheeks flushed instantly, and I couldn’t hide how giddy I felt. Something bloomed inside me… Warm, electric, and deeply emotional.

“Daddy, you know I’m leaving soon, right? I can’t stay in one place… I crave adventure. I want to experience new things and go to places I’ve never been.”

He brushed a strand of hair from my cheek and kissed my forehead gently.

“I know, baby. And that’s why I’ll let you go. But when you come back to me… I’ll marry you,” he said with a soft smile. My eyes widened, and I stared at him in surprise.

“Really?” I asked. He nodded.

“But what if I don’t want to settle down with just one person?” I asked carefully.

“You mean… multiple partners?” he asked, his brows furrowing. I nodded shyly.

“That’s okay… As long as I’m always with you, and I get to be your first husband,” he said, pulling me into a hug as I showered his face with kisses.

“Thank you, Daddy. I’ll come back to you when I’m ready. For now, let’s enjoy our honeymoon…” I whispered and kissed his lips.

“Of course, baby girl. While you’re with me, I’ll make sure you feel nothing but pleasure…” he said, spinning me around playfully as I squealed.

We enjoyed the water for a while, swimming in the clear pool, chasing the little fish around. There was also a bamboo raft nearby. I climbed onto it while he rowed us toward the falls. I squealed when the water splashed down on us, but I loved it.

We eventually took a break. He docked the raft by the rocks and sat behind me as I dangled my feet in the water. He kissed my shoulder and neck gently.

“Are you enjoying this, baby?” he asked softly.

“Very much, Daddy. This place is beautiful. Thank you for bringing me here.”

“You’re welcome. I’m glad you liked it. Is this your first time hiking?” I nodded.

“Even though it was a long walk, it was completely worth it. This place is amazing. Have you brought anyone else here before me?” I asked.

He shook his head. “Let’s just say… Hiking wasn’t really their thing. Some would start complaining before we even got far. I didn’t want to deal with that. But you… You were genuinely excited. You listened to everything I told you yesterday before we came here. There’s still a lot more I want to show you.”

“I’m in,” I said, kissing his cheek.
