Zack

She was starting to get under my skin. Zara was fierce. She was independent and wanted no one’s help. Unlike most girls I had liked in the past, she wasn’t afraid to speak her mind. She believed we were equals. As per prince and princess, we should accord each other.

That was all I saw when I had fished for food. I had battled with myself and ended up looking for her when she was nowhere to be found. When I sighted her, I didn’t ignore the fact that she looked sexy. Forwarding to when I had her in my arms and she kissed me in apology and felt shy thereafter. I admired her innocence. I couldn’t take that from her if she didn’t want it. This was why I had told her we didn’t have to sleep with each other. If possible, we were going to do an artificial insemination for our so-called honor and obligations. I didn’t want to rush her. I had pledged that to myself.

~~~

We had bathed with the ocean water once it was next morning. I had given her privacy, so as she did to me. Though, a part of me yearned to bath with her but I dismissed that thought immediately. I picked the stick I carved and begun fishing. It was no easy man’s job but I had learned and practiced this act of survival since I was born. As crown prince, I had to go through trials but I loved having adventure and had no problem with survival.

“Need some help?”, she said. She had walked up to me limping from the previous day’s injury in her inner wear and trousers. Guess she washed it and was waiting for it to dry.

“No, it’s alright. I got this”, I smirked and continued with the fishing. The water was blue and magical as always and splashed at each attempt of mine to catch a fish. My bait was some fruit I found in the forest. “You can’t say that. I need to help you since it’s what we’re both eating”, she said. I looked up at her, knowing she’d kill to help me at all costs.

“Okay, pick one of those sharp sticks”, I said. She looked back to the direction I pointed at. “And the bait, too”, I added. “Then do what you see me doing”, I encouraged. She walked down there picking it and joining me.

“Not easy”, she grunted out which made me smile. I afterwards focused on my work. “I told you”, I said and she continuously fought with the stick, bait and fish.

“Are we setting for the temple, today?”, she asked pulling her hair into a bun. “Yes, we have to look for it”, I replied her. “Really? You don’t know the exact location?”, she said puckering her lips. Oh, the crazy thing I’d do with her once she approved to our relationship.

“No, guess—”

“Yes! I’ve caught one! Finally!!”, she yelled flinging the stick and jumping all on me. Suddenly, I slip and fall into the water making the fish I attempted to catch going with the bait.

“What the fuck, Zara?”, I direct it to her. She’s still all on me and I see a hint of blush just above her cheeks beneath the water. I push myself upwards and she clings on making my chest making me shudder.

The things she did to me without knowing. . .

“Sorry”, she briefly says wiping her forehead from the water as I respectively do. I’m about to pick my stick when I feel her bosoms. They’re lingering on my chest and I had to admit they were quite voluminous and feeble. They was something about her that made me want to stay. . .

“Just continue fishing, Zara”, I replied and pretended I wasn’t affected. I felt my hard on poking from the material of my trousers. I think she noticed it too because she moved a step back.

“No, I’ll just go back inside. I think coming here was a bad idea”, she breathed out. A part of me wanted her to stay but I was definitely not going to force her. “Suit yourself”, I let out then continued as she went out of the water, limping.

Breakfast was eaten after that incidence. I had found sticks and used stones to create fire to roast the fish. Zara had looked at me but I couldn’t quite catch what the look meant. We had taken our few clothes and headed for the forest. Aiming at looking for the temple, we walked tirelessly.

Zara looked tired. She was overworking her sprained leg and refused any act of mine to help her. “You’ve got to stop walking on that foot, Zara”, I said but she didn’t even stop to acknowledge what I said. “Zara I’m talking to you”, I said again, walking to her and placing my hand on her shoulders.

Almost immediately, she twisted my arm and flipped me over bringing us both to the ground.

“Feisty? I like that”, I say. I smiled at the thought of her trying to take charge once I bedded her. “Stop ordering me, Zack”, she slammed back. I spin her into my arms but she retaliates spinning me back. This makes us roll continuously till we hit a large tree.

“Then quit being difficult”, I said. We both groaned at the fierce impact of the tree as I untangled my hands from hers.

Standing up, she attempts to kick me but I block it, slamming her against the tree. “Do you have a death wish?”, she asked. I raised her hands against the tree and she struggled continually. “Allow me to give you a piggy back ride”, I said mockingly and she glared at me. She had stopped struggling but I still made my grip on her firm because she never gave up no matter what. “Over my dead body!”, she exclaimed.

“Now be a good boy and let me go”, she added.

“It looks like you don’t know this so let me enlighten you—You are trapped in my arms so I’m the one calling shots not you”, I said. She looked daringly at me pouting her lips in annoyance, making it twitch. She begun struggling again but I held her still.

Zara looked like a bundle of riddles to me. Whenever she said something, her body always said otherwise. She had said, ‘over my dead body’ but her body said “baby please take me already’.

Her lips sucked in puffs of air as she licked it hastily. She looked nervous and I grinned widely as I locked my lips on hers.

“Wait, are you really gonna kiss me— “, she tried to say but I cut her off with my mouth on hers surprisingly. It was a forceful kiss I gave her with my hands still intertwined with hers.

She remained firm stubbornly not wanting to kiss me back. I lured her devilishly coaxing, probing and teasing her. I remembered what the castle maidens and countesses whispered about me. It was rumored that I could kiss a dead fish to life. And I had chuckled at that statement knowing that it meant I was a good kisser.

I used my tongue but she bit it. Growling in pain, I let go of her hands. “That’s for trapping me and kissing me without my permission”, she grunted out as I controlled myself. I didn’t miss how she looked. She looked like she was afraid. Like she wanted more and more.

“We both know you want this as much as I do, so stop being hardheaded and kiss me back when I kiss you next time, Zara”, I said looking seductively at her. I knew women mostly fell for my looks and so she would. If I pushed the right buttons.
