She narrowed her eyes and Elijah widened his. He recalled that he had agreed to it. “Mia, it is not safe.”
Her face morphed and she became angry. “You said you would!” She got out of the bed and stood at the edge of it.
“Mia. Baby.” He too got up and crawled to her. “Why waste our time on some stupid adventure when we can use it inside each other?” Now he knew why Hunter behaved like this around River.
She smacked his upper arm and strode to the bathroom. “I am not talking to you now!”
“Mia!” He plodded after her. She closed the bathroom door and locked it. He knocked on it. “Please let me come in.” He was annoyed at her childish behavior. Didn’t she understand that he wanted to remain with her? Like always?
“This conversation is over!” she shouted from inside. “I am going to go out by myself and find entertainment!” He thumped his head on the door as frustration bubbled inside him. He was not yet ready to share his Mia with the world. “Mia, please baby. Listen to me.”
There was no response. She was really angry. He couldn’t blame her for her adventurous spirit. It ran in her family. Moreover, she was just in her high school. She was like a kid he had to handle. Sometimes he wondered how River was more mature as compared to Mia. He leaned against the door and mulled over what he could do. Mia took a bath. She dried herself angrily murmuring that she was going to go out right now. She opened the door and found Elijah on the bed with a big smile on his face. She ignored him, pouted and went to sit in front of the mirror to brush her hair.
He let out a small laugh. “I have booked a submarine for us to explore the underwater world.”
She whipped her head to him and when she saw that he actually meant it, she jumped up, squealing like a baby. She lunged at him and sat on his lap. Curling her arms around his n*eck, she peppered k*isses on his cheek, his n*eck, his nose and his c*hest. “Thank you. Thank you. Thank you!”
He wrapped her up in his arms. This was the most priceless expression he had seen on her face in ages. He promised to himself that he would do anything to see it again and again. He cupped her cheeks. “Happy?” She nodded vehemently. “Where are we going?”
“Tomorrow at 11 AM. It will be a forty-five-minute ride underwater.”
“Yes!” she breathed with a twinkle in her eyes. “I can’t wait!”
But what happened next was something Elijah never anticipated.
Mia was too excited for her underwater excursion. She got up early, got dressed and then nagged Elijah to wake up and get ready. He pulled her back in the bed and wrapped her in a t*ight embrace. He buried his face in her n*eck and said, “Can we please cancel it? I want to stay with you.”
“No way!” Mia smacked him. “Now get up! We have a lot to do. We have to have breakfast. We have to go to the relevant—” Before she could say more, he seized her l*ips and k*issed her deeply.
Mia swayed a little and sighed when he pulled away. She l*icked her l*ips and a silly smile came on her face. “You are a good k*isser,” she remarked.
“Then should we stay back?” he asked. “I can k*iss you senseless for the whole day,” he offered. “Hell no!” she retaliated.
The two were on the deck with the rest of the passengers who were all looking just as excited. There were a total of seven passengers who were there that included three women and four men.
The Captain of the submarine introduced himself and his crew members after which they helped the passengers to get inside. As soon as they were all in and strapped to their seats, the lid of the submarine was shut.
Elijah was next to Mia and as the submarine was lowering into the ocean, she grabbed his h*and t*ightly. “Are you okay?” he asked, his brows furrowed when he sensed her anxiety.
“I am!” she said in a low voice, giggling.
After a few minutes, the Captain announced that they were about a hundred feet down in the water. He stopped the descent and proceeded on the venture. Through the window, Mia saw a lot of underwater life and she was so excited. Elijah didn’t know that his mate would be so excited and happy to be here. He made a mental note that he would bring her more often for a cruise and then take her for an underworld expedition.
The whole expedition was going to be about forty-five minutes. The stewards came and served them with rose wine after fifteen minutes. As they sipped their wine, Mia noticed a large octopus sitting on a rock. As soon as it saw the submarine approaching it, it pushed away from the rock, ejecting dark ink on its side. Mia squealed and laughed as did other passengers.
When they were roughly about half an hour down, Mia noticed another submarine coming to their side. It was painted with green stripes. She pointed at Elijah and said, “Look! It seems there’s one more out there.” Elijah was surprised to see another one coming towards them. “It is speeding pretty fast.”
Mia stared at the submarine and became uncomfortable because it was approaching very fast. “There is something wrong, Elijah…” she murmured.
Seeing red, he called the steward who was talking to another man on board and showed him the striped submarine.
“F*uck!” The steward rushed out from there to the c*ockpit to inform the Captain.
“What is going on?” Mia asked, confused.
However, before Elijah could answer her, the striped submarine clashed with theirs. There was a loud bang and the submarine shook. The passengers screamed. Elijah grabbed Mia’s h*and as dread washed over him.
The Captain increased the speed of the submarine and started to ascend it. He announced on the speaker, “We’ve been hit by the pirates. Please keep yourself ready. I am trying to pull this up as fast as possible!”
The Captain did his best to pull up the ship but the pirate ship banged against it once more. The passengers screamed again. If this continued, they would sink into the depths of the ocean soon. Elijah had to break open the door of the submarine to escape. He was a Lycan and he could do it along with Mia, but that meant that he was at risk of revealing his identity to the human world. And that was banned.
In a treaty with the humans, all the super naturals had to conceal themselves if they had to live on the same earth because if they revealed their identity, the humans would stop them from entering their world and then hunt their species down.
Still, Elijah was too strong and he could cross the ocean along with his mate. On a basic instinct, he let out a ferocious growl. “Elijah,” Mia said. “What do we do?”
