Cravings FIFTY TWO
The island looked so beautiful, the view alone from our villa is breathtaking, and the services offered by the wonderful people here when they received us were just as impressive as I imagined.It felt really nice to just be far away from all of reality and just be here alone with my family for bonding time. Oh, for how long I have always wanted to do this without each trip getting cancelled because of one or so different reasons that may pop up.“I see you can’t stop smiling. It is exactly what you wanted; I did well, didn’t I?” Michael stood in both of our rooms and said,.“It is just as I want; I can wait to put my feet on the warm sand,” I answered, smiling. I don’t know what these two weeks will bring, but I was just as ready and prepared for it.“There will be a dinner later tonight; we can start our experience from there. You think maybe you can wear the red dress I bought?”“Of course, I think I packed that in one of my suitcases. Do Seth and Bella know about dinner? I think t

It was as if the night was just perfect for Michael and me. The way he held my hand into the small dining room held in one of the shacks meant the dinner was supposed to have a natural feel to it, hence the location. Even the food displayed was quite exotic, and it made my mouth water immediately.I am a food lover, but I can also be very picky with my food at the same time.The sound of the sea whooshing all together, the calming breeze that swoops us together, coupled with a magnificent view—what more could I ask for? It was perfect.Everyone was seated, from Carmela to Leo to Bella and Seth—I should say that they all made an effort to look good today, so I am glad I wasn’t the only one who went overboard.I tried not to look in Seth’s direction, as I was now in my ignoring phase as well. Of course, this ignoring phase wasn’t because I thought he somehow felt something for me. I fee

~SETH POV~Scarlett drives me insane.Her scent alone makes me weak to the knees; I can’t help it. Each time I sense she is around, I can’t help myself by wanting to be next to her.How do I describe when it all started—my obsession for her?I don’t even know myself; no matter how I try to trace it back, I am met with a dead end and an agreement that she snuck her way in.There is just something about Scarlett, even now that I look at how being happy over a silly bouquet of flowers that I am sure wasn’t to her taste; she didn’t look like she wanted it and was just playing along. Scarlett might like a sunflower or a lily, but definitely not a rose.Deep SighScarlett is married. I keep telling myself, but what must I do? Here, I am also digging a pit for myself by being engaged to my best friend.I do love Bella more than anyon

“That was one long rest room break,” Scarlett said as she came up to me.“Have you been waiting for me?” I felt a surge of happiness seeing her.“What do you think?” Scarlett asked as I was too stunned to speak; she had been daring, and I loved to see it. “I want to pretend like you haven’t been behaving like I didn’t exist till today. I saw you, Seth, and this is something I can’t look away from."I still had nothing to say, as I wasn’t sure Scarlett standing here was real. I wanted to tease her, see her reaction, and then kiss her.“Scarlett!” Michael called out from inside the dining room, interrupting our moment.“I guess I have to go; we will talk later,” Scarlett promised. As she tried to move away, I caught her arm. "Seth, what are you doing? My husband is calling me."“He can wait,”

~SCARLETT POV~“I didn’t go skinny dipping with Bella last night,” Seth came up to tell me while I was putting in most of our stuff in the car we hired. We were driving inside to visit the people living on the island and possibly to try out their food over there; this has already been discussed before now, and they do sound willing to welcome us.I raised my head at Seth, who was leaning on the car. It was such an odd thing to say because I never expected that he would in the first place. “And that is supposed to help me in what sense?” I asked bluntly before slamming the trunk of the car.“I thought you would want to know... Scarlett, stop walking away from me." Seth grabbed my arm to stop me from leaving.“I have things to do other than stand here and listen to you. Also, Michael is over there; he might suspect something is going on,” I said. “Please take your hands off." I spoke calmly, and Seth heeded my request.“sorry,”“It is not a problem." I tried to walk away again, and Seth

“You should leave while you are at the door,” I say to him as my face softens. I was disappointed, but I also didn’t want it to ruin my entire day.Seth knocked on the door twice before coming back to me. “I don’t want to leave; if I do, I will end up... you know."“Then why did you switch up like that just when I told you I have sex with my husband? He is my husband; even recently, I haven’t allowed him to get close with me." I tried to explain, sounding tired. “I have done that, and it is because of you,” I admitted, not mincing my words.Seth chuckled as if this was funny or that he was seeing me relate to him in this way. “I am glad you cleared that up. I was thinking you slept with him recently. I don’t want you doing that; you are for me, right?”“Seth…” I spoke softly. There is no way he was demanding this for me when he has Bella; this is getting out of hand, and we have hardly done anything together.“I know this is selfish of me; I am sorry and also not sorry." Seth thinned
Cravings FIFTY-EIGHT
My eyes widened, Patricia Levine? Patricia Levine?“Hello, Are you there?” Patricia asks after my prolonged silence."Of course, I just wasn’t expecting your call; I didn’t even know you had my number either,” I said nervously, feeling like the whole world was spinning around me."Oh, pardon me, since Louisa is sort of close to you, I asked her for your number. I do want to speak to you one-on-one, I think what I have to say should be said directly. I was wondering if you will be available to come over to my place this weekend. I will be finally returning to the estate after so many years, so I have a lot of unpacking to do, but I will be free this weekend,” Patricia articulated quite simply for my better understanding.I was surprised, shocked, and bewildered—all you can name out there to show how I felt at the moment.I had so many questions swirling in my brain, like what exactly could be so important that she would have to seek me directly, even going to the extent of asking for m

We cancelled our trip and returned the next day, though we did experience issues with our flight booking, but everything went smoothly in the end. A couple of days later, things with Seth seem to have started off greatly. I don’t know for how long we can keep this up, but sincerely, I was scared.My phone vibrated a couple of times while it rested next to my lamp on the table close to my bed. It was already late in the night, and I needed to get ready to see Patricia today as we already had plans made, so I ignored the vibrating noise as I dismissed it as probably Brianna texting or just random notifications.Well, it seems ignoring didn’t help, as all of a sudden, my phone rang out, and I quickly grabbed it to reduce the volume so as not to wake Michael up.And would you look at that?“Hello,” I said in a hush, lowering my head as if I were hiding from someone.“Were you asleep?” Seth asked almost immediately.“No, I was about to before you called,” I replied.“Did you see my message
