SEA'S BRIDE (PHILMYTHO ROMANCE II)

CHAPTER 48

Amanikable and I entered the Neyk Submarine floating above a miniature pool at the edge of the tunnel. So this is how it looks like at the farther end of the tunnel. It really looks like it's close to the surface of the sea because the depth here is quite superficial.

Upon entry, my eyes quickly swallowed all the fancy stuff inside that's shown so much luxury. In my life, I have never seen a submarine firsthand, let alone a luxurious one like this which is a feast for the eyes of whoever comes to see it first hand.

Inside the Neyk is positively decadent. The passenger cabin is as wide as a Gulfstream jet's, with six large acrylic viewing ports. According to Leandro, the options include large leather seats complete with seatbelts, large tables, disappearing flat-screen televisions, a head with a marble-topped cabinet, a gallery complete with crystal drinkware, a library, and even a diver airlock, if desired.

This must be the first time I became engrossed in what Leandro has said when I can still remember his spiels while Amanikable shows me around. My eyes are already full seeing from the entrance, and even above the cabin which is the cockpit where the pilot and copilot sit side by side as they operate the fly-by-wire controls and view their surroundings through the large airplane-style panoramic viewports.

"Where are we going with this one?" I asked Amanikable as we finally rest at the passenger cabin. comforted by the large cream leather seats.

Amanikable seated in a distance to me after he places a platter of snacks on the table between us. "You will see once we get there," he answered while sounded quite a reserve, and it makes me wonder what is waiting for me between his words.

"Does this mean we're already out of the dome?" I asked again. I can't help but rain him with my curiosity.

The side of his lips lifted and he answered, "I told you that there is nothing that my realm can't provide you, there is nothing in this world impossible for me to give you." he crowed will full pride. His arms were tuck in his chest while he remains looking at my surprised reaction. Is he doing it really for me? Or was it to provide me a delusional daydream that he is really pursuing me? I can't let my guard down with this.

I immediately dodge off those oceanic-blue eyes before they turn me into someone I am not again. The globular window made of acrylic glass enables me to get a closer view of the depths below sea level. The blues indulges me. Even the reefs are amazingly wonderful as they sway from the seafloor. Varieties of marine life from small fishes to bigger ones dance their way along the submarine appearing like they wish to play with me.

Leandro was not with us today as per his master's order. Though I could feel how he is eager to come along with us today, probably because he still feels suspicious to leave his precious master to my side. I find that unreasonable and totally pathetic, knowing Amanikable could instantly cut my throat anytime he wishes to. There is never a single chance for me to harm his master at all.

If I can only be too bold, I would actually think Leandro is too attached to his master. His loyalty is absurd and appearing like, he actually has a feeling for his master. Unfortunately, his master is not interested in him at all.

And Apparently, his master is taking his liking on me. All the more reason now why I have to understand Leandro's indifferent treatment to me behind his master's back. If I choose to play the villain, I'd probably pulled his leg before his master so that he could savor the humiliation and punishment his master will bestow him. He should be thankful I'm the least hideous of a person than he thinks I am.

Thinking about it made me tried to conceal the chuckle from my seat. Until I was disturbed by Amanikable from the other side who has been watching me the whole time. "Care to share what's so funny?" He asked with a sneer on his face.

I've completely forgotten his presence. The whole thought made me lost the idea that he is with me all this time and it's entirely humiliating how he watches me as I visualize how I could commence my revenge against his trusted butler, Let alone even ship them together as a supposed lover. This is so embarrassing. I could already feel the blood rushing to boil at the corners of my cheek while my body loses its will to move. Here it goes again, that same feeling whenever he catches me off guard and he attacks me with that malicious glare.

"How long are we going to travel to reach where we are supposed to go to?" I suddenly asked to change the topic.

His head rested on the back of his palm before answering me back, "less than a day. we'll be their tomorrow lunch."

I wonder where would he take me that the travel time still needs to take more than half a day?

"Where will we sleep?" It was something in my head that accidentally slip out of my mouth.

Amanikable rose from his seat, "Come," he said though the sound of it leaves an authoritative tone to me. And yet, I still followed him at the end.

Beyond the leather seats, Amanikable drags a curtain aside that revealed to be a cabin divider leading to a suite room. How grand can this submarine be to even have a suite room complete with a comfort room and shower inside?

It has a double-sized bed with a flat-screen tv hanging on top of the foot side. beside the bed lies a small compartment seemingly similar to a locker, probably it's for immediate clothes needed by the master. I wonder if he has brought any woman in here. Though I told him that he is not capable of loving which was contrary to what was written in the book. I'd like to believe I wasn't the first woman to ever sleep here.

"How is it to your liking?" He asks which shook me. What surprised me wasn't his question, but the fact that his lips were so close to my ear as he stands behind me while inclining his head lower to meet my height.

I flinched as he tried to breathe out beyond my ear that sent me a tickling vibe. And with that, I accidentally allowed another thought from my head to freely slip out my tongue when I told him, "How many women have already slept here?"
