So it was the day of my another trip to Molokai with Harold and Dylan. I was standing near the main door waiting for Harold to come out of his room. I checked the time on my watch and it was 6:50 am.

Ten more minutes to go..

This time, I will not allow that Harold snooty Kingston to lecture me or insult me. It hurts my pride plus my self respect.

And this time I want to enjoy my trip without being stuck with him anywhere. I hope this time I get stuck somewhere with Dylan.

A creepy smile formed on my lips as I thought about Dylan.

Oh Dylan!! You are making my heart go crazy..

Suddenly I saw Harold walking out of his room in his black suit looking fresh as ever. Wow!! He looks hot in black but Dylan is more hotter than him.

Huh!!

I twitched my lips at both the corner of my lips.

Egoistic jerk narc..

He stopped in front of the staircase and looked upto it before pulling his phone out. He pressed something on his phone before placing it onto his ear.

So he's giving me that morning annoying call.

Damn him.

But my phone wasn't ringing. Surely he's calling that stupid telephone. He stood there and dialed again. I didn't want to call him, so I tiptoed towards the dining area and pulled a chair as a screeching sound erupted from the wooden legs of the chair as it brushed against the marbled brown floor.

He abruptly turned around and saw me.
"So your already up?" He asked but I ignored him and looked away.

He muttered something under his breath and walked forward as I followed him behind. We exited the house and walked past the bridge as I saw three black sleek cars parked out there.

The front and the back car was packed with the bodyguards and the middle car was empty with just a chauffeur inside. We walked upto the middle car as the chauffeur immediately got out and opened the backseat door for his so called king.

I opened the passenger door for myself and sat inside making myself comfortable. The car soon pulled out the property.

Soon the car pulled in towards the JKF airport as we got out of the car and to mention all the bodyguards were surrounding us.

"King!!" Dylan called as we reached inside the airport and from there he joined us.

Some men from the airport guided us towards the Harold's private jet. It was a huge white colour jet with black strips aside of it. Harold was the first one to enter followed by Dylan, me and all the bodyguards.

Harold took a seat at the front while I took a seat at the back. Dylan walked towards me and sat across me.

I smiled... correction...grinned.

"Molokai is 40 minutes away from here by jet and I assure you Molokai is a very beautiful island. You'll feel delighted over there." He smiled.

Just your presence is enough to delight me, my dear.

"Yeah." I nodded.

"Well I have some presentations to look after, I'll see you in a while." He said and stood up before walking towards Harold.

I took my phone out and went through my social media for time pass.

40 minutes later:

The plane landed and all of us got out and again there were five black cars parked. Harold, Dylan and I took the middle car while the rest of the bodyguards took the other car.

As usual I was sitting on the passenger seat beside the chauffeur. Harold and Dylan at the back seat.

Our car drive was silent with no one talking. And after about 10 minutes, the car pulled in towards the coastal area.

I was in to awe as I got out of the car because infront of me was a huge white cruise ship. It was so large. Dylan was standing beside me as I whispered,
"Are we getting inside that?" I pointed towards the cruise.

He chuckled,

O.M.G

I'm super duper excited for this.

"Let's get in, shall we?" Dylan asked as nodded.

With that Harold, Dylan and I walked towards the cruise but wait!!
Why aren't the guards following us anymore? They were standing at the coast line.

Maybe they are here to guard the coast.

A narrow white colored staircase was pushed out from the cruise for us to climb onto it. One by one, the three of us climbed up and walked inside, it had the wooden flooring and at the edge was a small helipad. We walked further more in and again climbed upstairs until we reached an open air terrace. In here was a large blue swimming pool, a tennis court and...

My looking around was cut off as an old man and a young man walked towards us. Both the men had almond shaped eyes with a single folded eyelids, a button nose and a full lips. I guess they are Asian. The only difference between both men were their hair colour and age.

"Hello Mr Kingston, it's a pleasure to have you here." The old man said with a warm smile plastered on his face.

"Same here Mr Chang." Harold responded.

"And this is my son Zhāng Chang." The old man patted the younger man's shoulder.

Harold shook his hand with Zhāng Chang before saying,
"Let's talk about work."

"But you haven't introduced us to your team." Zhāng said looking at us.

What team? It's just me and Dylan.

"Well, this is Dylan, my right hand man and this is Miss Nolan, my employee." Harold said.

Both the Chang's scrutinized me from top to bottom and I felt weird under their scrutiny.

"So now let's talk about work." Harold said as both of them nodded.

The cruise started sailing across the sea as the four men walked away from me and a waitress approached me and directed me inside towards my suite.

..........

I freshened up as it was already evening. My room was beautiful with a queen sized bed in between with white sheets draped on it. A medium square window from which I could the see the water flowing. Everything was beautiful but I was kind of bored, so I thought of going out. I took my phone and marched out of my room towards the open air terrace.

As I reached the terrace, my phone dinged and I pulled it out, it was a mail from a New York shopping mall, saying that there was a big sale on the coming week.

God!!!!! I'm gonna miss it for sure..

Dammit.

My eyes were glued onto my phone, checking my other mails when suddenly I felt a presence infront of me.

I lifted my head up to see Zhāng Chang with a cheshire smile on his face.
"Hii." He said that in a husky way.

"Hi." I forced a smile.

"What's your name?" He asked, taking a step forward towards me, he was kind of invading my personal space.

"I am Naomi Nolan." I said as I took a step back and looked around. No one was around.

All I wanted was to get inside the dine and have a hot steaming cup of coffee but now I'm stuck with this Chinese weirdo..

"On which department do you work?" He asked again as he again took a step forward.

I took a step back while replying.
"In finance department."

"Would you like to work for us also." He took a step forward still with that creepy smile.

"What?" I furrowed my brow as again I took a step back.

He again took a step forward and I took a step back and that went on until my foot came in contact with a bottle, as the bottle rolled under my foot causing me to lose my balance and I tripped.

My back came in contact with the cruise railing and my body automatically back flipped. And now I was on the air with widened eyes and a face filled with horror.

"I CAN'T SWIM AHHH..!!.." I screamed my lunges out and SPLASH.

I felt my body dip inside the cold water as I gasped hard. I was drowning in as I tried hard to push myself up but failed miserably. Cold water filled my lungs as blood pounded in my eyes. I gasped for breath as I was trying hard to keep my head above but the currents were pulling me down. My breaths were agonizingly painful and short. It was hard to breathe.

With my faint vision I saw someone jumping into the water but I saw no hope as I let myself free. I drowned in but suddenly I felt a strong arm around my waist as the same arm pulled me up. My consciousness was already fading as I felt myself dragging upto the cruise.

I was lying flat on the floor of the cruise with my eyes closed. I could hear whispers, mumblings as I felt a hand pressing onto my stomach in order to remove the excess water from inside me. I was still at short of breath. My consciousness was slowly fading away until...

I felt someone's soft fingers pinching my nostrils shut and the next thing I felt was a soft lips against mine.

I hope it's Dylan's..

I gasped hard as my breathing steadied and I slowly opened my eyes. But as I saw the face of the person who was kissing me, my eyes widened like saucers.
