บท 83: Kissing Olvia
A sudden gust of wind swept through the deck, sending a shiver down Olvia's spine. Jack, noticing her discomfort, swiftly removed his shirt. His body was sturdy, resistant to the chilly night breeze, and his jacket was already safely cocooning the sleeping Robin.
Wordlessly, he draped his shirt over Olvia's shoulders, his movements quick and efficient. The shirt, still carrying his warmth, enveloped her, offering a soothing shield against the cool breeze. His unique, manly scent emanated from the fabric, causing an unexpected flutter in her heart.
"Better?" he asked, his gaze fixed on her. His question, simple and direct, carried an undercurrent of concern. His icy-blue eyes reflected the soft glow of the moonlight, their steady gaze fixated on her, awaiting her response.
"Yes, thank you," she replied, her voice a whisper in the silent night. Her gaze fell to his bare torso, the moonlight casting an ethereal glow on his muscular frame. Her fingers absently traced the fabric of his shirt draped around her shoulders, her heart still fluttering from his unexpected gesture.
The waves gently lapped at the ship, and the celestial vault above was an expansive canopy of twinkling stars. Olvia found herself drawn towards Jack, the normally stoic man radiating an aura of tranquility. There was a distinct magnetic pull that emanated from him, a silent strength that was both comforting and alluring. She had been feeling this pull, increasingly so, for some time now.
As much as she tried to suppress these emotions, the more time she spent with him and his family, the stronger these feelings grew. Initially, she attributed it to the safe environment Jack provided for her and Robin. He had been there for them, taking on the role of protector and provider without hesitation. His silent dedication and the love he showered on Robin were undeniable, and it naturally kindled gratitude and admiration within her.
But as days turned into weeks, and weeks into months, her feelings began to evolve, morphing into something much more profound. She tried to hold back, to keep these feelings at bay. After all, she had just lost her husband, and these emotions felt like a betrayal. But the more she fought against them, the more she found herself falling for Jack.
And now, seated beside him under the shimmering night sky, with Robin sound asleep in his arms, she found herself drawn to him more than ever. His eyes, calm and reflective like the tranquil ocean, were mesmerizing. Her heart hammered in her chest as she studied his face. She realized she was leaning closer to him, her breath hitching as she noticed his gaze locked onto her.
In the silence of the night, the only sounds were the rhythmic lullaby of the sea and their accelerated breaths. Her heart pounded in her chest like a wild drum, and she was acutely aware of how close they were. She could feel the heat emanating from his body, sending a shiver of anticipation down her spine.
She was close enough to feel his breath on her lips, a tantalizing hint of what could come. A storm of emotions swirled within her, causing her pulse to quicken. Fear, excitement, anticipation... they all meshed together, pulling her in different directions.
Was she ready for this? Should she step back and forget this ever happened, or should she take the risk and follow her heart? She found herself caught in the whirlwind of her thoughts and emotions, with no clear path ahead.
In that charged silence, Jack studied her face. His icy-blue eyes bore into hers, catching the uncertainty and the yearning that danced within them. He knew what she was going through; the internal turmoil that was pulling her in opposite directions. He saw her fear, her desire, and her anticipation, mirrored in her eyes. He saw her hesitation, the lingering doubt that held her back.
But Jack wasn't a man to hesitate, and seeing the whirlwind of emotions through her eyes was all the green light he needed. He was a man who believed in action, not endless deliberation. And at this moment, his instincts were telling him to go for it.
With a swift, decisive motion, he leaned over, his muscular frame casting a shadow over her in the dim moonlight. He closed the gap between them in an instant, snatching her lips with his own in a passionate embrace.
It was a forceful fervor, a testament of his desire, yet it wasn't jarring or alarming. It was powerful, assertive, just like Jack himself, but it was also full of tender care, reflective of the underlying emotions he harbored for Olvia. His lips moved against hers with practiced ease, the connection bringing a rush of warmth coursing through their bodies.
Olvia gasped against his lips, her eyes wide with surprise. The suddenness of his actions took her off guard, but she didn't push him away. Instead, she melted into his kiss, her body relaxing against his sturdy frame. Her heart hammered in her chest as she surrendered to the intoxicating sensation, her fingers gripping the fabric of his shirt draped around her shoulders.
Just as the heat of the moment intensified, Jack disappeared from her vision. The instant loss of his touch surprised Olvia but didn't alarm her. She understood his sudden disappearance. After all, the ability to vanish into his own body space was one of Jack's peculiar abilities. She knew he had simply taken a moment to put Robin, who was still sound asleep, safely into her crib.
True to her understanding, Jack reappeared within seconds, Robin no longer in his arms. His icy-blue eyes met hers, twinkling with a hint of mischief in the soft moonlight. His strong arms encircled her waist, pulling her effortlessly into his lap. The suddenness of his actions made her heart flutter, but she didn't pull away.
"Surprised?" Jack asked, his voice a husky whisper against her ear. The teasing edge in his voice made her cheeks heat up. She bit her lower lip, unable to meet his gaze. This was a side of Jack she hadn't experienced before, a side that was playful and unabashedly flirtatious.
"I..." she began, but Jack didn't let her finish. His lips descended onto hers again, cutting off her words. His kiss was fervent and insistent, filled with an unrestrained desire that was simultaneously intimidating and exhilarating.
Her hands found their way to his bare chest, the firm muscles under her fingers making her breath hitch. His skin was warm against her touch, the feel of his heartbeat under her fingers sending a jolt of excitement down her spine.
Her hesitation melted away under his passionate assault. Her fingers curled against his chest, holding onto him as she gave herself to the kiss. Jack's arms tightened around her waist, pulling her closer, their bodies aligning in a way that made her pulse race.
A soft moan escaped her lips as his hand gently traced up her spine, his fingers leaving a trail of goosebumps on her skin. Jack deepened the kiss at her response, his tongue gently coaxing hers in a dance of desire.
As they pulled away, both gasping for breath, Olvia looked up at Jack, her eyes wide and dazed from the kiss. Her heart pounded in her chest as she met his gaze, his icy-blue eyes looking at her with an intensity that stole her breath away.
