Chapter 828 - Honeymoon (J&J) (1) (2/2)

”Later?” Jeff frowned and started lifting himself up showing intention to move to the side and back to sleep. ”If it's later, why did you wake me up now?”

”It was not 'later' when I woke you up. It just became 'later' a minute ago…”, she admitted while pulling him back toward her.

…

Later that morning, Jeff and JoAnna finished breakfast and headed to explore island with two backpacks, one each. They packed food and drinks to last for a day (probably more), together with some hiking necessities such as ropes, knives, etc. JoAnna got a gun as well, you never know if there are some wild beasts.

They estimated that they have about ten hours of daylight. The plan is to go one way, following the coast, for no more than five hours and after that to head back if they didn't cross more than half of the island. How do they know when they reached half? Because exactly on the opposite side of the island from the villa are few buildings which they prepared for security and the staff. There is a trail across the island directly from bodyguards to the villa, and it takes about one hour of moderate paced walk to reach from one side to another.

Jeff showed her the pictures of the buildings for the staff, and she was impressed how quickly everything was set up. They have electricity, running water, and internet. One of the buildings has equipment for surveillance and includes radars which can detect underwater vessels and airborne ones. They want to know if anyone approaches the island. Impressive. JoAnna confirmed that if you have enough money, anything is possible. Ah, it's good to be rich.

Before leaving the villa, JoAnna sneakily checked location of her sisters with a tracking app.

”We agreed no devices unless it's an emergency.”, Jeff reminded her grumpily.

JoAnna smiled while trying to hide guilt that he saw her using her phone. ”Just checking that everyone is fine.”

”That will not tell you if they are fine.”

”But it tells me that Sophia and Sarah are with Felix and Aiden at the Cliffside villa. They are together, so they are safe.” JoAnna paused before adding. ”Sorry, I'm just nervous for some reason. That is why I'm checking on them.”

Jeff exhaled. ”If you are worried that something is wrong, you can call them.”

JoAnna looked at her phone and hesitated. ”No need. If anything happens, they will let us know. I'm sure it's just my imagination… Let's go and explore this place!”

The hike was not a challenging one, difficulty: easy. There are few hills, but they are toward the middle of the island. Near coastline is relatively flat.

They discovered few more beaches, and the trees and tropical plants were nice to look at.

About two hours into their hiking adventure, one beach caught JoAnna's attention. It's a wonderful sand beach, and JoAnna removed her shoes and socks and went to dip her toes in the sand.

”Come!”, she called Jeff to join her. ”I've never felt a sand this soft… it's almost like powder.” She said through giggles while walking slowly and enjoying the feeling of sand seeping between her toes.

Jeff already saw a mental image of JoAnna burying him in that sand, but he doesn't mind. It makes her happy.

And his guess was correct. Five minutes later, JoAnna was busy burying him in the sand.
