《MYTHICAL DESCENDANT: Married to Mr. Fox》Chapter 13: HOLOKAI ISLAND
Advertisement
Ember is packing her clothes. After finishing, she got out and hailed a taxi. She headed to the ship's port. Jayden was restless in his office, biting his nails and tapping his right foot on the floor. What should I do? Should I follow her? What if she thinks negatively about me because I followed her? Ahh... It doesn't matter; I still want to follow her. He stood up and walked out of the office. He made a call to Xander.
"Hello Xander, I want to go somewhere. You just return home without me."
"Yes, master. But may I know where you want to go?"
"Holokai Island."
"Holokai Island? Are you going there alone?"
"Nope. I'm going with Ember."
"Oh... Okay. Take care of yourself, master."
"Yeah, sure."
Arriving at the ship's port, Ember went to the ticket counter to buy tickets.
"One ticket to Holokai Island, please."
The ticket seller informed her, "Here's the ticket. The ship will leave in 20 minutes."
"Alright, thank you."
Ember got into the ship and found her seat. As the ship was about to leave, suddenly, someone was sitting next to her. She turned to look to her left. She was shocked to see Jayden next to her; he seemed breathless.
"Jayden, what are you doing here?" Ember was surprised to see Jayden in front of her eyes.
"F-Following to Holokai Island."
Ember smiled at Jayden, who was willing to follow her. It is unbelievable to see him here. Did he leave his work behind and follow me? She's so happy. Jayden's sweat dripped from his forehead. He's glad he arrived on time and did not miss the ship. He accelerated his car to reach the ship's port and ran towards the ticket counter.
"We're going to spend the night there. Are you okay?" After hearing what Ember said, Jayden frowned.
"Are you planning to spend the night there?"
"Yes, my friend, will not allow me to return without spending the night."
"How long do you want to spend the night there?"
"Three days and two nights."
Hearing the answer from Ember, Jayden remains silent. He's thinking he needs to leave his work for three days. Sure, his secretary will nag him for being away for so long and leaving all his work behind. But he didn't care; he still wanted to go with Ember.
After 4 hours, the ship sailed to Holokai Island. They arrived. They got off the ship and looked for a taxi. Ember hails a taxi and heads to her friend's resort. After half an hour, they arrived at the resort. Jayden looked around, because this was the first time he had come here.
"This resort belongs to my friend." Ember informed him.

"Where is your friend?" He asked. Suddenly, a voice greeted them.
"Ember..." Megan came towards them. Megan, 32, has short, black hair and light-brown eyes.
"Megan, I miss you so much."
Ember said, and they hugged. Jayden was just staring at them, and then Megan saw Jayden, and she asked, "I miss you too. By the way, who is this good-looking guy?"
"I introduce you to my husband, Jayden."
Megan frowned and said, "I thought you were married to Zane."
"I'm not." Ember answered with a solemn expression.
"Oh, no! Are you pregnant with his child, and forced to get married"
Megan shows a prejudiced expression. Jayden was surprised to hear the words from Megan.
"Nonsense! There is no such thing as that." Ember was also shocked by her words.
"Hahaha, I was just kidding, I already asked Aubrey. Zane cheated on you. Your husband is really good looking. I bet you're so lucky. It's like you won the jackpot."
Megan teases Ember. Ember looks at Jayden. They locked eyes with each other and blushed.
"I've prepared a room for you. Here's the key, go keep your belongings. I'm waiting at the restaurant cafe."
"Okay. Jayden, let's go to our room."
Jayden just obeyed without saying anything.
When Ember opened the door, the condition of the room was all white. Ember jumped on the bed and rolled over on it. Jayden smiled, looked at her, and walked over to the room's balcony. There is a sea in front of their balcony room.
Ember got out of bed and went to the balcony. Jayden looked at her. The wind blew Ember's hair, and she looked so beautiful. He'd never liked beautiful women before, but seeing Ember's beauty really fascinated him.
"You look so pretty."
It shocked Ember to hear those words from Jayden.
"Haven't you met many beautiful women before? I'm just an ordinary person."
Jayden smiled and said nothing. His eyes looked at the sea.
You are the first beautiful woman to ever fascinate me. Jayden's inner thoughts were blown by the breeze. He felt his heart was alive because of the pounding heart.
"Let's go to the cafe. Megan is waiting for us there."
They walked to the cafe. Megan was waiting for them there.
"Ember, come here." Megan waved. They came to the table and sat down with Megan.
"Let's have lunch together." Megan suggests
"Jayden, what do you want to eat?" Ember asked.
"Anything is fine."
"Ohh... You're very lucky, Ember. My husband is very picky about food." Megan complains. Ember just smiled, hearing Megan complain about her husband.
After they finished lunch. Ember and Megan take a walk on the beach. Jayden sat in the beach chair, enjoying the view.

"Ember, what do you think about your husband? You got married without loving each other, right?"
"Yes, I didn't love him at first, but I want to try to love him."
"I think he's better than that bastard, Zane."
"I hope so." Ember smiles.
"So, after you got married, did he already touch you?"
Megan asked with a curious face. Ember stopped walking after hearing Megan's words. She just realized that she had to be with Jayden before the week was over; there were only 3 days left.
"Ember, what's wrong?" She noticed Ember's expression changed.
"Nothing." Ember replied, as she shook her head. "Hmm... He has never touched me." Ember continued.
"You're married without love. It will definitely take some time to make love. Hmm... Ember, you can return to your room if you want. Take some rest. Tonight there will be a beach party. Come with Jayden.
"Alright, see you later."
In the resort room, Jayden sat thinking, as he had no clothes brought there. Ember noticed his expression and asked.
"Jayden, what's wrong?"
"Um... I just realized I have no clothes."
"Oh, don't worry. I'll have Megan send it here."
After that, Ember makes a call to Megan. After half an hour, someone knocked on their door. Ember went to open the door.
"Mrs. Ember?" A young girl came. She has brown hair that's shoulder length and grey eyes.
"Yes, I am."
"These are clothes for Mr. Jayden."
"Thank you."
Ember smiled at her and closed the door. Ember approached Jayden and gave him the clothes.
"Jayden, these are your clothes. But I'm not sure if the clothes suit your style."
"Okay, thanks. I'm fine, as long as I've got something to wear."
Around 7.30 p.m., Jayden and Ember go to the cafe. There were a lot of people rejoicing because today was a beach party. Countless people are having fun at the beach. A waitress came to them and gave them a beer. Jayden and Ember took the beer and sat down in chairs.
"It's been a long time since I've come here and partied."
"Who did you come with before?"
"With Aubrey."
"Just the two of you?" Jayden asked with a curious face.
"Yes, just the two of us."
But Jayden's face looked disbelieving at Ember's answer. Ember clarified it again to him.
"Just the two of us. I've never been anywhere with..."
Ember stopped. She didn't continue her words. Jayden chuckled and looked somewhere. Seeing Jayden chuckling, she was happy. It was so hard for him to see Jayden with a happy expression. She felt like Jayden had opened his heart for her to enter. No, they started to open up to each other. The wall they built between them started to crumble.
After a few hours, Megan came to see them. With her guilty expression,
"Ember, sorry I am late to meet you. Too many of my acquaintances are coming. Thank goodness your husband is with you. You aren't alone"
"It's okay. I understand."
"You are always the best. Oh, before I forget, this is a sky lantern for both of you. We will all fly this sky lantern together. Let's go."
Megan gives a sky lantern to Ember and Jayden. They both headed to the beach with the people there. They set fire to the sky lantern, and were ready to fly it. Before they flew the sky lantern, Ember closed her eyes and made a wish, and then they released the sky lantern, which flew into the sky. Jayden was curious about Ember's wishes, and he tried to ask her.
"What are you wishing for?"
"I wish you and I could be together forever."
At that moment, Jayden's heart seemed to stop beating after hearing the words from Ember. Jayden stared at Ember without saying anything, and then looked up to the sky and spoke from his heart, I wish we could learn to love each other.
After the beach party, they returned to their room. Jayden went into the bathroom. He went to the shower because of the heat and discomfort. After the shower, he just wore a towel out of the bathroom. Seeing Jayden only in a towel, Ember felt her heart pounding. She hurried into the bathroom, and only then did she feel calm. What's wrong with my heart today? Seeing him only in a towel makes me... Arrgh! Forget it. She went into the bathtub to calm herself down. After finishing taking a bath, Ember wanted to get a towel, but she slipped and fell.
"Ouch!!" Ember screams. Jayden, at the time, wanted to put on his pants, but he heard Ember's voice screaming and the sound of falling. He ran towards the bathroom door and asked, in a worried tone.
"Are you okay? Are you okay in there?"
But no answer from Ember. Ember was in pain at the time. Because there was no answer from Ember. Jayden tried to open the door, but it was locked. He kicked the bathroom door, and the door opened. He went inside and saw Ember lying on the floor naked. Ember is shocked to see Jayden standing up in the bathroom, and she tries to cover her body. Jayden ran his gaze away from her. He gets a towel and wraps her in it, and then he carries Ember out of the bathroom and places her on the bed.
