Chapter 193: Underwater
Zyair turned his back to her and bent down so she could easily climb on it. Wrapping her arms around his neck she hitched herself up and coiled her legs around his rugged waist.
She giggled and snuggly embraced him, his arms went under her knees as he provided her support and straightened back up, balancing her effortlessly. Skyla placed her chin on his shoulder, while his arms remained safely tucked behind her back.
"Let’s go," she announced and Zyair’s heart brimmed with satisfaction. He started moving with her on his back along the shoreline. The wind whipped past their faces.
"You comfortable?" He asked, turning his head slightly to watch her. She was so lightweight that he didn’t even feel as if he was carrying someone.
"I am. In fact, I am loving it," she told him excitedly, "Let’s go a little deeper into the water," she pointed and Zyair’s naked feet began to move in that direction.
Some random crabs scurried away seeing them approach as he moved further towards the sea. The waves lashed at them, spraying them with foam.
They stood in knee-deep water, Skyla dangled her feet in the cold waves letting her skin feel them rush against it.
"Water feels so good," Zyair commented and Skyla slid down from his back and stood beside him, slipping her hand in his.
Their eyes focused on the horizon as they basked in this beautiful moment.
Skyla kicked the water with her foot and scooped some up in her hand to flick it on Zyair all the while giggling in that sonorous voice of hers. He took off his mask and pocketed it, revealing his devilish smirk. They were alone on the beach so he had nothing to fear.
He let her enjoy and bending down flicked back some water onto her. It settled in her hair like pearls and tiny rainbows were reflected in them. Skyla cackled some more and raised her hands to stop the water from hitting her face.
"I am going to dive in, catch me," she told him with a wink and dove into the water with her hands stretched out. She began to swim away from him. Her arms and feet moved in sync.
The sea was calm so Zyair was not bothered but he followed her with determination.
"Once I catch you, I won’t let you go," he threatened. She was quick but he was quicker. He had learnt swimming in the past few years and had become quite adept at it.
Zyair took a deep breath and cocked his head underwater. He grabbed Skyla’s thrashing leg and pulled. She flailed back and he caught her in his strong arms, turning her towards him. Her eyes widened as her hands and feet moved to keep her in position. Her long auburn hair slowly swayed behind her like ribbons.
Zyair devilishly smiled and grabbed her waist. Skyla held onto his face as he smashed his lips on her and shared his stored oxygen with her. Among the fish, under the sea, they embraced and kissed like two starved souls who couldn’t get enough of each other.
It was magical for none of them had such a unique experience before. They had never kissed underwater.
Skyla and Zyair remained entangled until both of them ran out of oxygen. Seeing that he grabbed her waist and swam up. They soon surfaced while panting.
Skyla was totally breathless so Zyair guided her towards the shore still holding her by the waist. Both of them swam out and collapsed on the sand, completely drenched and wasted from their time in the water. Their naughty eyes found each other and they began to laugh hysterically.
"This was fun, thank you for returning joy to my world." Skyla said breathlessly and carefully took his hand to place it on her heart, letting him feel the erratic beats.
"They will always stay as long as I breathe," he informed her with so much love that she shuddered from its overdose.
Climbing on top of him Skyla squished her soft bosom into his form chest. Their wet lips met once more. She could feel the taste of the sea on his lips. Her drenched hair fell all around him, curtaining his body in them as their lips continued to savour each other.
For a while, they stayed there just enjoying the peace of this beautiful place and each other’s presence, through kisses and embraces.
"If we weren’t with Huria and Rais here, I would peel this off and lick every part of you," Zyair told her while biting down on her lower lip. She shuddered in his hold but had the same desire.
"Tonight," she whispered back, entangling her hands in his damp hair and getting lost in his beautiful eyes.
Zyair finally let her go when Skyla’s stomach began to growl so they decided to head back, wash up and eat. Taking out his mask he covered his face.
Returning to the place they found that Huria and Rais were just bringing out the food. Huria seemed in high spirits.
"Right on time, change up and join us," Rais called out, holding a beer can.
"Just give us five minutes," Skyka answered and hurried inside followed by Zyair.
Both of them took a bath to take out the sand from their hair and clothes. Skyla dried herself up and changed into fresh clothes. It was a multicoloured kaftan.
Zyair changed into neat Jeans shorts and a tee. Both of them met in the foyer.
"You look gorgeous my girl," he complimented her as usual, placing a kiss on her wet hair. fгeewebnovёl.com
"So do you," she answered back with love-filled eyes.
"Let’s eat."
Both of them headed outside. Rais and Huria were just finishing up.
"Food is delicious, dive in. Rais and I will take a walk now so you people can enjoy in peace." Huria winked at them while Rais placed the clean plates so they could enjoy the lunch. Skyla blew her friend a flying kiss.
"Thanks, guys. We appreciate it very much," Zyair graciously thanked them for the hospitality as well as the understanding both of them had shown him. Never making him awkward or lingering to try and catch a glimpse of his face. They had been extremely respectful of him.
"Don’t mention," Rais heartily said as he took Huria’s hand in his and off they went.
Once they were settled Zyair took off his mask while Skyla served the food. She filled up his plate with buttered prawns and rice before adding to her.
They ate in peaceful silence with Zyair keenly observing that she ate enough.
"I wish we could stay on the beach for more days, just lay down and relax." Skyla broke the silence while finishing up her rice as she wistfully watched the sea.
"Once everything settles, we will often visit beaches or wherever you desire. That’s my promise." Zyair reached out and squeezed her hand.
"I will look forward to it." She turned her head to him and graciously smiled, knowing this man would always keep his promises.
They finished eating, cleared the dishes and packed their stuff. The evening was falling and they needed to return before nightfall. So once Huria and Rais returned from their walk, all four of them headed off.
They reached their yacht and boarded it.
Rais and Zyair took the wheel while ladies sat back in the stern. Huria had this glow about her which Skyla didn’t miss.
"Anything you would like to share?" Skyla nudged her playfully and Huria clasped her both hands.
"Rais is such a darling, Sky. He has so much in common with me and yet there are such subtle differences but in a good way. Like he is calm and collected. I don’t know why I never observed him in this light before and yes he is a great kisser too. He kissed me on the beach and I can’t get it out of my head."
Skyla could sense how genuinely happy Huria was. It was always physical love for Huria, she didn’t bother getting to know the men. But this time it seemed like she was really enthralled by what she was uncovering.
"I am thrilled to hear that girl. He seems like such a good man, hold onto him." Skyla gave Huria a warm tight hug. She wished for nothing but happiness for her friend.
"I will try, Sky. Besides, my mom is breathing down my neck to get settled down. You know how she is and you heard her on the phone the other day. Maybe if this works out I can tell her that I am getting serious. She is coming to visit on the weekend, you might have to bear with her for a few days."
Huria sighed but Skyla just thumped her shoulder in reassurance.
"Don’t worry, everything will work out. Both of us have gotten this far, we will see everything through to the end."
