10- "Never thought..."
1574 Words
With what he just said, my heart skipped a beat. However, Ives and Durand were confused. So I continued what he was about to say.
"He is speaking the truth. Durand, Ives, he's my stepbrother."
Incredulous, Ives shook his head. " Despite the fact that he is your stepbrother, he still has no right to treat you badly."
Zack's jaw clenched in rage. He was as if ready to murder the two.
"Please, Ives! Durand? Please leave now!" I wanted to cry as I begged them to leave.
I don't want any of them to get hurt, so I avoid adding fuel to the fire as much as possible.
To keep up the resort's good name, Zack must not cause any harm to the visitors staying here. I wouldn't have the guts to confront Ryle, the resort's manager, if something bad happens or anything is ruined because of me! I just can't take the thought of staining Lamont Beach Resort's image.
"Ryn?" Durand was worried about me being in danger while I was with my arrogant stepbrother.
Although I had only just met them, I already considered them friends, and I didn't want to drive them away. I wanted them to leave now because I couldn't bear to see them beaten up so brutally by Zack.
"I beg you, Durand. Please. You both leave now. Just leave us alone, we're stepsiblings. Please?"
At last, Ives and Durand heard my begging and they left us. Though they didn’t want to but they did, which made me feel thankful because nothing bad happened to any of them.
“Zack…” My stepbrother was quietly watching the two boys as they walked away from us, so I softly called his attention.
He looked at me and then uncaringly pushed me to release from his hold. Thankfully, I was able to maintain my balance and avoid to fall.
“You know what? You’re such a legend when it comes to flirting with so many men! First, with my brother Ryle. Secondly, with our circle of friends, and now, with the guests of this resort!” he said bitterly.
I shook my head.
What he’s saying is definitely not true! I am not flirting with anyone here!
"Come on! Quit acting so naive. You may be able to fool some of the men out there with your innocent appearance, but I am wise to your true nature and you can never fool me!"
His remarks were so piercing that I felt like crying. “Zack…”
“Why Irryn? Do they give you so much pleasure?" he arrogantly asserted more than asked, and then he started to cut our little distance from each other.
“Zack!"
He sighed deeply and abruptly turned his back on me.
“The cloud’s getting dark, stop flirting with anyone anymore. Go back to the resthouse,” his last words before leaving me.
As he walked away, I noticed his rugged yet sensual back. I understood that he was upset, yet I felt his pain, nonetheless. He might have been cold because of it. His dark experiences and his painful tragedy.
Truth be told, I felt a deep pang of pain and an overwhelming urge to cry after hearing his words towards me. How could he possibly feel that way about me? That I am a b***h? Some sort of flirt? He thinks I am being friendly so that I could flirt with random guys out there? Couldn’t he think those men were just naturally friendly that’s why I easily have gotten along with them and made friends? Does he already see it as a way of flirting?
Although I have every right to be angry, I refuse to get angry with him. Our parents are getting married in a matter of weeks. My stepbrother and I will officially become stepsiblings, and I don't want to grow resentful at him. I just have to accept that he's very different from his biological siblings, Ryle and Rhian.
"She's my property—a girl from my home."
I didn’t exactly know what figuratively or literally he meant by saying those words earlier, and those somehow healed my heart. I felt like remembering those words makes me totally okay and I am able to smile once again.
I'm his property... a girl from his home!
I didn't understand what he meant, but one thing was certain. Once, I had reason to believe that he would come to regard me as his stepsister one day. I really, truly, hope that this will happen.
Days have passed by and every day was a new beginning, a new hope.
What I was doing was to take regular walks along the shore, where I could enjoy the soothing sounds and sights of waves washing at the shore. Even if I had to stay at sea for the rest of my life, I doubt I would ever get bored with it.
“It’s just so good having a stepsister who does my hair braids!” One morning, as we were lounging on the beach, Rhian squealed with glee.
I was sitting behind hair as I was braiding her hair.
What she said made me chuckle a little bit. "Well, it's so great to have a stepsister whose hair is both healthy and lovely enough for me to braid."
“Does auntie Fidelia have the same talent?”
I confirmed her interpretation with a nod. “Yeah. Back when I was a young girl as you are, she loved to braid my hair, too."
“Teach me to braid when I grow up, okay?”
“Sure, Rhian.”
“Thanks. Anyway, when I go back to school, I want to—“
“Ahhh! Ahh!”
I was listening to my stepsister elucidate something when I heard some moans and groans coming from somewhere near our area.
"Hssh, Rhian." I pointed my finger to the center of my zipped lips to signal her to stop talking for awhile.
She looked at me, puzzled. "Why, sister?"
"I can hear something," I said. I wasn't sure what it was, but I have been using my hearing more.
It appears to be a young woman running for her life, and she urgently needs help.
“What? I can hear nothing except the waves of the sea.”
I could really hear something else than just waves alone!
A growing sense of unease set in as the moans grew increasingly loud. Perhaps a terrible thing will shortly occur!
I stood up. “Wait for me here, Rhian. I just have to check it out myself.”
Rhian questioned, "What's going on? Where are you going? ”
“Stay here, Rhian. Don’t ever leave. Okay? ”
A submissive nod came from her. “Okay.”
As I approached a secluded cottage where the sounds had originated, I realized that the screams were getting louder.
What seriously is happening? I feel like somebody inside the cottage needs urgent help!
Almost at a run, I arrived at the cottage and knocked on the wooden door. It’s confirmed that the groans are coming from inside of this room!
“Miss? What’s happening there? Are you okay? Do you need help?” Concerned, I continued to knock on the door and ask.
But no one from the inside seemed to have heard me!
I decided to hand the doorknob and gladly, it wasn’t closed so, it immediately opened!
My eyes widened with the current scenario I witnessed!
The naked Zack is on top of a naked girl while her legs are widely spread meeting his strong lustful thrusts.
"Hey! Why are you such an intruder! We are both about to o****m!” T he naked girl was angry at me because I disrupted their s*xual activity!
Zack's face was expressionless as he stared at me.
He doesn’t even seem to be bothered that I have caught him in the act of s*x with one of his random girls! Even the girl herself doesn’t seem to care being caught, and instead, she feels offended and anticipated because her moment of supposed cumming was totally interrupted!
"I thought..." I couldn't think of anything to say because having them in this situation makes me feel completely awkward! "I thought somebody was in danger..."
Zack was on the verge of a mocking and totall amused laugh.
Simply put, "I'm sorry!" I turned away from that awful sight quickly.
What the fudge?
When I finally made it back to where Rhian was waiting, she asked me, "Sis, what's happening?"
“Nothing. Let’s go.” I quickly grab her hand and gently drag her out of this place.
“But why?”
“Nothing. We just have to get away from here, NOW.”
I almost made her come back in to our resthouse so, we could get away from that secluded cottage.
I could hardly catch my breath as I realized how good it was that I had kept Rhian far away from the cottage where her brother was indulging in some adult activity.
We were already away from that cottage but still my heart was racing violently. The image of him laying on top of a naked girl and violently hammering inside her wouldn't leave my thoughts. Too many emotions were stirred up in me, and I couldn't pinpoint what they were.
Rocio Zackarius Lamont, I had no idea you were capable of such filthiness!
