Chapter 12

She was almost certain she could smell an ocean close by, Jessica thought, inhaling deeply as she lifted her face and let the morning breeze caress it. She had managed to convince Kal and Arizona to let her get them a babysitter for Saturday mornings, which meant she had this morning entirely to herself. She walked along a sandy stretch of land, her camera dangling from her neck in an idle manner as she ambled along.

She was dressed simply in a long, flowing gypsy skirt with a slit that ran along one silky length of leg and stopped just beneath her hip. She had on a small spaghetti strapped crop top and a wide straw hat. She looked ready for the beach, which was probably why she could have sworn she smelled the ocean.

As she walked, the silence was occasionally broken by the chirping of birds and the caw of crows. The air felt dewy against her exposed skin as though it wanted to rain, and the morning sun was just beginning to hint at its presence on the horizon.

No day could be more beautiful, she decided as she spied a small rock in a corner, overlooking —oh my goodness— a tiny body of water right in the midst of the rows of palm trees and exotic flowers.

Jessica ran in excitement to the rock and gingerly made her way to its small peak. With a contented sigh, she sank onto it and let herself soak in nature as she watched the sun rise.

This was the life, she thought. It didn’t get more peaceful than that.

The sound of running feet behind her made her look over her shoulder and her heart clutched in fear. Six men were running very swiftly up the long stretch of sand, conversing easily and laughing as they ran. Who were they? She was all alone. Was she safe?

As they ran up, she spotted Theodore among them, and her heart clenched in reaction, wetness pooled between her legs, and her lips parted of their own volition as though waiting for his kiss. She wanted him as desperately as it was possible to want a man. She caught herself wishing she could catapult across the space separating them and drag him off into the bushes.

The almost pagan instinct shocked her and as embarrassed color flew to her cheeks, she forced her gaze to cut to the other men with him.

The other men seemed to be hanging on to his words as they ran. She noticed the man from last night and scowled. What was he doing here?

She had been hoping to say hello to Theodore, but not if that man was there with his innuendos, sarcasm and animosity, she thought, whirling back around to continue admiring the sunrise.

Just seeing that other man had probably ruined her morning, she thought waspishly as her small hands became fists while fighting for control.

She was so focused on fighting her feelings that she didn’t notice that the men had come to a halt behind her.
