Chapter 998
Jack and Feena drained the wine in their glasses in one go. Feena smiled at him gently as she placed the glass down. She then leaned her delicate body against his and wrapped her arms around him. Jack could feel how soft her skin was even through the fabric of her night clothes.
It was then that he realized that Feena was wearing next to nothing. He couldn't help but ask, "Aren't you scared of catching a cold since you're wearing so little?"
"Of course, I'm scared!"
Feena played coy in the circle of his embrace. "That's why I need you to hug me and to give me warmth, alright?"
Jack tightened his hold on her while happiness was reflected in Feena's sparkling eyes. She pushed herself up on her tiptoes, pressed close to Jack's ear, and whispered, "You rascal, can you carry me to bed?"
She wrapped her arms around Jack's neck as she spoke. The atmosphere surrounding them turned thick with desire.
Jack gently carried Feena to the bed and sat down. She picked up the wine glasses again, but this time, she only filled one of them. She wanted to share the sweetness with Jack.
Jack snaked his arm around Feena's waist as he brushed the tip of his nose against her neck. He was getting drunk on her skin's faint fragrance. He murmured, "Feena, if we get married after graduation, have you ever thought about where you want to go for our honeymoon?"
Her eyes brightened. She responded softly, "Of course, I have."
"Where is your dream place to visit?"
"I want to depart from Brightland in Vexburg. We would then follow the route we took with Phoebe last time, but this time, it'll just be the two of us, okay?"
Feena gazed at Jack fondly. Her eyes shone as she recalled the past. "Do you remember what happened when the three of us traveled together?"
"I remember some of it."
"Well, I remember all of it."
Feena allowed herself to be swept away in her sweet memories. When she recalled something interesting she couldn't help but chuckle, hiding hermith behind her hand. "Lo remember the trip fasted for three days. I was so busy chatting with Phoebe that I accidentally neglected you. Were you upset the entire time?"
Jack denied her assumption. "Nonsense. Why would I be upset?"
"Hmph! Don't try to deny it. I was actually watching you the whole time. Your face was always dark."
Feena blinked before continuing, "I felt quite bad for you at the time. I wanted to talk to you more, but I was also afraid that Phoebe would misunderstand.
"But the most memorable part of the trip had to be the night we spent on the ship. It was storming, and we encountered all sorts of sea animals such as flying fishes, dolphins, and jellyfishes. There was also that almost mystical scene of the ocean and the sky."
Jack also began to reminisce about that night. He had been
accompanied by two beauties, so he had felt like he was in a dream the entire me. Especially when they ran into trouble on the small ship It was the first time Jack had embraced both Feena and Phoebe at the same time. The memory of it still made Jack's heart race and face hot till this day.
"Did you know? I thought I was going to die when I was taken into the sea by the waves. You're the one who saved me."
Feena appeared to be in high spirits as she continued, "That's right. Do you remember the shooting star from that night? Both Phoebe and I made a wish."
"What did you wish for?" Jack asked curiously.
Feena didn't answer him directly, instead she asked, "Jack, do you know what's the one thing I regret the most in my life?"
"I don't," he answered with a shake of his head.
Feena nibbled on her rosy bottom lip before answering in a low voice, "The thing I regret the most is rejecting you in front of everyone next to the river during our high school graduation party.
"Even now, I can still recall how disappointed you looked," she murmured as she tightened her hold on Jack.
