The Coast Between Us Novels & Stories

Kai had me on the balcony, my back against the railing, one leg hooked over his arm as he fucked me slow and deep under the night sky. “You’re getting addicted to my cock, aren’t you, beautiful?” he whispered, knot teasing my entrance. “Can’t even go a few hours without it stretching this greedy hole.” I was close — so close — when we heard Leah’s voice calling from inside. “Guys? I’m back!”

“Wanna not do that today?” I hesitated for half a second before nodding. “Sure.”

“Who’s that?” “It’s Sydney! She’s treating us to Palawan!” “Oh, that’s wonderful!” she said, and I could hear the joy in her voice. My heart swelled. They covered our bills, our food, everything when Mom was sick — I’d always felt so indebted to them. “Which date works best for you?” I asked. “Anytime’s fine, just let us know when it’s final. Where are you now?” “In Switzerland,” I said proudly. “Wow! Show us!”

I chuckled, “Okay fine I promise.” We connected our pink fingers together for a few seconds and pulled away. But we all knew promises were meant to be broken.

"Ok, you buy the plane tickets and I’ll get the best yacht money can buy… err rent,’’ He said. We made calls to our friends, informing them that we won't be home for a while. We both turned our phones off after, then left the hotel for a real vacation. "I can't believe we are doing this." I said, sitting beside Nick in the almost empty airport. "We deserve it. I mean, when was the last time you left the country?" "You're right, I haven't been to the beach in a while either. Maybe like thirteen years." "See, we are already working hard, so it's nothing if we go ghost and enjoy ourselves." Nick kissed my hand.

The space between them felt charged with possibility and complication. When Anne prepared to leave that evening, Jeff walked her to the gate. The night was cool and clear, the city lights visible in the distance like a sea of stars that had fallen to earth. Neither of them spoke at first, both wrestling with what had almost happened and what it meant for whatever was developing between them. “I’m sorry,” he said quietly, his hands shoved deep in his pockets as if he needed to restrain them from reaching for her again. “For putting you in that position.

And resulted in anti-communist suspicions and international incidents that led the two superpowers to the brink of nuclear disaster..." She continued, clearing her throat. After a while, when she reached the end of her presentation, she realised it wasn't that scary after all. Yes, she was practically shaking but no one made fun of her.

He was confident that he would find his daughter. "Is this the right path? Isn't Westmont past the coast and the ocean? As far as I know, the region that has the most beaches is Southernshore. I'm sure we're entering the wrong area, Max," said Ivory, who knew The Cardinal's territory well as she had moved from one area to another several times with her mother to avoid her father. Max slowed down the car, turning right and left to confirm and match Ivory's information.

Gio stepped ahead of them towards a rocky path with exotic planted coconut trees on its left and right. The view of Aaron's house is incredible. The house stands tall on the highest hill by the coast. The back is connected specifically to a separate, fenced-in beach side, a private beach. The house paint is pure white, it fits perfectly with the view of the blue sea and green coconut trees that dominate the island. The curtains waved in the large western-style window at the front of the house.
