Chapter 205: Stating The Fact
"Aren't we going home?" Lana asked because she noticed that Liam was driving to a different road.
Liam grabbed her hand, brought it to his mouth and gently kissed it as he looked at her with a cheeky smile on his face before putting his gaze back on the road. Lana unconsciously gasped at that because he looked so dangerously handsome whenever he smiled like that, a little naughty and seductive.
'He always looks so handsome though,' she pondered inwardly, and in came the scenes of his muscular body doing so many things to her, flooding her mind with naughty thoughts.
Her face reddened, remembering how overpowering he became sometimes and yet remained so gentle. Her heart was once again beating erratically with all those thoughts.
"Are we doing some stop over or going to some other place?" Lana asked again, trying to keep herself calm with the sudden effect of Liam's charm on her. Lately, she was becoming weaker in front of his flirting, but then she had already accepted the reason.
Her cheeks were turning crimson and felt so hot because Liam had held her hand and was continuously kissing and he even bit on the back of her hand once in a while, poking his teeth gently on her skin, making her tremble every time he did that.
"I think we must have a private celebration of your birthday and graduation day, with only the two of us, so I have decided to take you somewhere nice for a grand celebration. Besides, I will have to send you tomorrow at the review center, so I want to make some excellent memories with you, so that you will be forced to miss me there... so badly…"
"Stop it and drive," Lana timidly whispered. "Are you hungry that you are eating my hand bite by bite?" she could not help but add. It was actually distracting her because those actions of his were making her feel hot, sending electric waves all over her body wanting him to do more to her, right there and then.
She heard Liam chuckle. "I'm hungry… Indeed so hungry… Grrr!" Liam mumbled in a jest and acted like a wolf eating her hand.
Lana laughed and tried to pull out her hand from his gasp… Liam was rejoicing at the thought that he could make Lana laugh out loudly like that. He was impressed by himself by the way he had progressed so well.
After almost an hour's ride. They finally arrived at their destination at a yacht club. Lana was familiar with the club because her friends also had yachts there.
"We're riding the yacht?" she excitedly commented.
"Yes… I bet you will love the night sky view and city lights in the calm waters." Liam answered and watched Lana enthusiastically go out of the car.
It was one of his private yachts and he made sure that it was romantically decorated and everything they needed for an overnight stay there was very thoughtfully prepared.
Lana gasped seeing the beautifully decorated hatch oozing with a romantic vibe. The small yacht was aesthetically decorated with red roses and even a path carved out with red petals that led to a round dining table with candles and dinner at the deck. A complete 4 course dinner was arranged there and a feast with trays of different varieties of food, drinks and desserts. Liam talked to the personnel, then dismissed them afterwards.
"Wait… Who will steer the yacht?" Lana asked with a creased forehead as she watched everyone leave.
Liam chuckled and said, "I'll steer it, that's why I used the smallest one…. I told you I want us to be alone for this celebration… only you? and me...."
Lana pouted her lips as Liam pulled her into the cabin and pushed her to sit on the seat near the steering wheel. He started the engine and took the yacht into the sea, not too far away but in a secluded area and in a suitable position to see the beautiful city lights from afar as well as for the night gazing specially star gazing from the deck.
Lana watched Liam's every movement and commented, "So you know how to handle large vessels as well, Captain?"
"Hmm, I have a license but large vessels hmmm, I haven't tried operating one till now, but I sure can." Liam boastfully said. Then he added, "This is what I love to do apart from being inside the courtroom. I love riding boats as well and being in deep waters…"
Lana nodded. "Aren't you sea sick? I have medicine with me just in case you are, but knowing you went to the military… I think you're probably not."
Lana chuckled, recalling her good times in the military training where they also had to jump from the helicopter into the sea and travel in different boats for training as well as for their missions. It all gave a high adrenaline rush for her and she loved it.
"Do you want to try the wheel?" Liam asked and Lana nodded. Liam guided her on the wheel while he stayed close to her from behind. He could still smell Lana's scent mixed with the natural salty sea air.
Liam explained to her a little bit about how to operate the yacht, but he could not help but be playful with her and he would nibble on Lana's earlobes after teaching her a little, from time to time.
"Let's stop here." Liam whispered and readied the anchor to control the drifting of their yacht.
It was dinnertime, so the couple shared a hearty meal. They had an enjoyable chat on various topics while eating.
Liam was so thoughtful to cut the meat first for Lana and exchanged his plates with the cut beef with hers. After dinner, they stayed on the deck with a cushion and blanket. Liam covered Lana and himself with that big blanket while he poured themselves some good wine in glasses.
Lana closed her eyes and felt the solemnity of the sea. The calming sound was so relaxing.
Then she opened her eyes and looked at the nice city lights…"It's so beautiful…" she whispered with a beautiful smile.
"Yeah, you are indeed too beautiful…" Liam commented, staring lovingly at Lana's side view.
She chuckled, turned to face him and said, "Hey, that pick up line is so overused."
"But it's not a pickup line. I'm just stating the fact…"
Lana's face blushed, and she felt Liam grab the glass of wine from her hand and put it on the side together with his. Then he moved closer and leaned his face towards hers. Lana closed her eyes as she expected his lips to land on her parted and awaiting lips.
But she felt his lips on her forehead instead. Lana opened her eyes, only to close it back because Liam kissed her eyes. Then he kissed her nose, followed by her cheeks. His slow moving kisses felt so nice, like she was a delicate thing he tenderly wanted to take care of.
Their eyes met and Liam whispered, "I love you, Lana Huang Sy…"
Lana did not know when her eyes welled up. She could not answer him with words, but she cupped his face and sealed his lips with a breathtaking kiss.
