Kiss Me Not-Chapter 48 - Color Of Your Eyes

Brione's movement was quick and casual and yet here he was, standing rooted to his place. The impact of her on his body was too much to even describe. He felt so hot that he too wanted to jump in the water but if he were to be in the water… he would surely make a move and pull Brione into his arms. But he did not want her to be wary of and think of him as a pervert. However, it was so damn hard to control herself.

"Hey! Come on! Join me here! Take off all your clothes!" Brione shouted, hoping Cedric would also strip before her. That was why she first stripped herself, All that she had on her body was a small underwear. So she was hoping he too would take a dip wearing only his briefs!

'Or maybe I should have dared him to take off all his clothes?' she shook her head as some more explicit images of his naked body flashed across her eyes. Later if she would not be able to check his butt cheeks, then she would play a game with him as Berry suggested.

Meanwhile, Cedric sighed. He was still thinking about the way Brione brazenly asked him to take off all his clothes.

"Does she know what she's asking for?" Cedric whispered under his breath.

Cedric exhaled loudly before he removed all his clothes, leaving only his trunks on.

Brione gulped at the sight of that perfectly sculpted tall body from a distance. Cedric really had a good body just like Gavin, drool-worthy, and a delicious feast in every woman's eyes. Ah! Not only women but definitely men as well!

Yet, a sigh of disappointment escaped her mouth. With pressed lips, she complained, "Tsk, he should have worn something more revealing! How am I supposed to check his butt! In such conservative trunks?"

Cedric jumped into the pool and joined Brione in the refreshing water. He had been taking a dip in that particular place before also but today he felt more alive and he was enjoying the surroundings more, maybe because he was with Brione today.

He swiftly swam towards her. Brione held her breath when she saw Cedric brought his head up from the water very close to her.

"The water is good," Brione whispered. Cedric narrowed his eyes and with that roguish grin replied, "Being with you here is the best."

Brione with a pout complained, "Stop that!"

"Stop what?"

"Being shameless whenever you can," Brione answered.

"Is it bad to be more expressive? Don't you like it?" Cedric asked, he was anxious with the thought if he was already an annoyance to Brione.

"Am I so overbearing?" he added.

Brione sighed. She felt like the air around her was reducing and she was suffocating due to lack of oxygen because of their closeness.

"I think…? I can still tolerate a lot of you," she sincerely answered with blushing cheeks.

Cedric wanted to tease her a little more but he wanted Brionne to feel comfortable in his presence and enjoy the swim with him.

"Would you like to try the bamboo boat? Let's go inside the cage there," Cedric said and Brione nodded. He walked near the rock and pulled the paddle out made of bamboo that was sturdy enough to carry both Brione and him together.

He jumped and climbed up into the boat first and while he was still hanging on the sides of the boat, Brione immediately stared at his back, particularly at his perked up and sexy lower part but the cut of his trunks was too long for her to see the location of the birthmark there. 𝑓𝘳ℯ𝒆w𝘦𝘣𝙣𝘰ѵ𝘦𝚕.c𝗼𝓶

She quickly looked in another direction when Cedric turned and offered his hand to help her get onto the bamboo boat.

Brione settled herself on the boat and Cedric began to paddle it and they headed in the falls, he maneuvered it at the right side where there was a cage.

Inside the cage, there was a stopover of rocks so they could walk further. Cedric secured their bamboo boat first and helped her out of the boat to the ground. He held her hand and together they walked further inside the cave. Brione gasped as soon as she saw a magnificent sight as they neared it.

There was a crystal clear lake inside. One of the halls opened on the surface and let the light of the sun in, which was making the water appear to be so clear.

"Is it deep?" Brione asked.

"Not much, just around 5 to 7 meters. I'm not sure about the exact depth," Cedric answered.

"It's so clear that I do not want to taint it and try the water," Brione commented. She walked to the other side of the cave where there were plants bearing beautiful flowers. They were so beautiful that she regretted not bringing her mobile phone for taking photos.

Cedric chuckled and held her hand.

"Come, there's more to see inside and more lakes further…"

They walked a little further and indeed there were more lakes that were more shallow than the first one, Cedric pulled her in for taking a dip in that lake and she noticed that there were some things floating there.

"What are those? A box?" Brione asked.

"Hmm, not sure, why don't you check what it is…?" Cedric said with a smile.

Brione got curious so she opened the floating box and gasped at the sight of a fancy vivid intense yellow diamond, beautifully illuminating and reflecting light, surrounded by solitaire diamonds in a white gold setting.

"It's for you, thank you for accepting the offer to be my woman. And I'm really grateful…" Cedric whispered.

"No, I can't accept this. It's too expensive!" Brione whispered.

"This matches with the color of your eyes sweetheart and is specifically made just for you. You have to accept it or else I will just leave it here and someone else who comes here might grab this. I swear, I will leave it here if the woman who I want to see wearing it does not accept it." free𝒘ℯ𝗯𝙣𝗼ν𝑒𝗹.𝒄o𝒎

Brione's face twitched and she mumbled, "That's blatant blackmailing…"

Cedric chuckled and said, "This is my way of showing my sincerity towards you, my way of showing how much I'm grateful to you. So please don't deny my sincerity sweetheart…"

Cedric took the ring and raised Brione's hand and put it on her finger.

"See, it fits you perfectly! This ring can only fit someone who is the perfect match for The Prince. Someone I like from the bottom of my heart. And in my eyes, there's only you." Cedric lovingly said as he stared at Brione's hand.

"It's beautiful… but I really can't accept this," Brione whispered. She was honestly in love with the ring.

"You want us to just leave it here and be taken away by someone else? You are the owner of it since you found it. Don't lose nor remove it Bri or else that would mean that you're rejecting my sincerity." Cedric said with a serious note.
