She was giggling while looking through her binoculars. Finally, she found the site she'd been wanting to see. A pod of dolphins swimming near the ship. They seemed to be having fun jumping in and out of the water close to the rumbling engines. Dolphins are one of her favorite creatures. They're mammals that live in the sea, they are technically fish with the intelligence of a chimp, and they behave like dogs, they even have a facial expression, they're always smiling. At least that's how she sees it. Watching them in their natural habitat was a different experience. The way they swim so freely in the vast body of water, they are in their element. They spun their bodies up in the air, racing against the boat while putting on a show, cutting through the water, their tail wagged as if to say 'hi', their excitement was contagious, she was grinning from ear to ear. A fluttering sound of a camera shutter came from her back. It was a moment worth eternalizing, it's very rare for that many
Unfaithful: Web of Betrayal Eight: Day Four
It didn't surprise him when she didn't show up at the Club that night. In fact, she was nowhere to be seen. He spent hours going around the ship with his camera pretending to be doing some work when he was really searching for her. She was isolating herself in her room, he thought. 401. He knew where it was but he wasn't going there. He had to give her some space, or she would shut herself completely and he didn't want that. What was his plan? When he thought about it, he really didn't have any. He only knew that he had met the woman he had always imagined would be his soulmate and now he was pursuing her no matter what the obstacle was. Isn't that what people do? She's married. That much he was sure of. Does she have any kids? How long has she been married? The more he thought about it, the more restless he got. He was already jealous of the man who was living his dream. It's not too late, he thought. There must be something wrong with her marriage, but then again, there's always s
Unfaithful: Web of Betrayal Nine: A Night To Remember
"Looks like someone's gonna miss the boat," he said as he sat on the sunbed next to her. "And I won't be alone," she raised her glass at him before she sipped the special drink. He shrugged, "Well ... I'm supposed to stay on the island for two nights as part of my job." He smiled, his clear blue eyes were looking straight into hers. "Hmm ... What a nice coincidence." "I hope they know you won't be going back to the ship, you might want to tell someone about it or they'll call the police." She almost choked on her drink, "You're kidding, right? They would do that?" He raised his brows and nodded, "Technically they're responsible for your well-being as their passenger." She grimaced, and leaned back on the sunbed, "That's ridiculous, I don't have to do that." Roman laughed lightly, "You really don't abide by rules, do you? Let me make it easier for you ..." he reached into his pocket and got his phone. "I'll call them for you." She wanted to stop him from doing it, but he was to
Unfaithful: Web of Betrayal Ten: When?
When did it all start? Was it when his cheek brushed against hers when they danced? His voice whispered in her ear telling her what a wonderful time he was having with her, how beautiful she looked under the dim lights of the seaside bar. Was it when he took her hand and swirled her around to land in his embrace over and over again? Until his embrace no longer felt out of place but was expected, she wanted to end up that close to him. He felt new to her, exciting. Or did it start when they first laid eyes on each other? Is there such a thing as an instant attraction? It felt like it. She tried to avoid it, didn't she? Or maybe, it started even further back before they even met. When her world crumbled to pieces when she found out her husband had slept with another woman for reasons she has yet to understand. He loved her, he adored her, and he told her she was everything to him. Yet it didn't stop him from sleeping with another woman and tarnished their once flawless marriage for a
Unfaithful: Web of Betrayal Eleven: The Morning After
She woke up still tangled in the sheets that were evidence of the night's rumpus. Staring at the picture on the wall she didn't even notice was there last night. It wasn't a dream, she didn't imagine it, as far as her memory allowed her to remember, she enjoyed it very much. What happened to guilt? Why hasn't it knocked on her door? It was the weirdest feeling ever. She looked at the man who gave her one of the best nights of her life and saw his peacefully sleeping face under the sunlight. It stirred her inside. Did Declan feel the same way in the morning when he woke up next to that woman? She wondered if his affair had driven her to that bed. She didn't have an answer to it. Whatever it was, it doesn't justify what she did. Had the man not been Roman, would she have done the same? For that, she has a firm answer, 'No'. There was something about Roman that she just couldn't resist. He slowly opened his sleepy eyes, bright blue against the ray of sunshine, his long lashes glisten
Unfaithful: Web of Betrayal Twelve: Day Five
She never thought that holding hands would become a thing for her again. Being married for so long, Declan barely ever holds her hand anymore. Occasionally she would loop her arm around her husband's arm at formal events. A peck on her cheek to show his friends that he loves his wife, and of course all the jewelry on her body that he bought for her, or rather custom-made for her from one of his jewelry stores. But never that warm grip between her fingers pulling her everywhere he walks, a nice wet smack on her forehead, the top of her head, or small cute kisses around her neck the way Roman did to her. He really made her feel like a teenager again. He took her walking by the beach and had breakfast at one of the beachside cafes. He was acting like a love-crazed teenager, teasing her, seducing her, and laughing, he looked happy. Something she hadn't seen in Declan in years when they were together, nor she had seen it in herself. Her eyes were always scanning their surroundings, worri
Unfaithful: Web of Betrayal Thirteen: Day Six
"Adele ... Adele ..." He kept calling that name when they made love. It made her feel like a fraud. He was saying things that made her heart swell. Intimately. He devoured every drop of her and still he wanted more. More of Adele. They barely sleep that night, knowing that it would be their last night together ... naked. They lay on top of each other all night, not just inside each other. He ran his fingers through the length of her hair, "I love your hair." She didn't reply. "I love the way it smells ... long, and soft," he gathered all her hair in his hand and clenched it into a fist, "It feels nice to pull them when you bend ... and I like the way they feel on my face when you're on top of me." She covered her face with one hand and laughed, "No one's ever said that to me about my hair." "It's true," he laid her hair over her shoulder down to her breast. "I bet you'd look even hotter if you keep them long down to your waist," he traced his finger down to her pelvis. She smil
Unfaithful: Web of Betrayal Fourteen: An Afterthought
He hits the shower in his room washing away all the sea breeze from his hair. Flashes of memories from the night before ran through his mind. They were showering together with her back against the wall, he hovered over her, kissing her under the trickling water. Her breath was in his ear sighing in pleasure when he lifts her up and pushed through her. He scrubs his hair with shampoo. She had become the only thing occupying his mind for the last few days, it wasn't an exaggeration when he told her it scared him. It has always been his weakness, when he fell, he fell hard and he never fell this hard for someone he barely knew. His male ego wanted to pursue it, he had to have her, and he wanted more. What was he to her? A nice lay for a few days while enjoying her luxury cruise? He saw how people noticed them as soon as they got back on the ship, an odd couple, not because of their age. He knew her concern about his age but what was more concerning was actually their social status, she
