17 – Marianne
From then on, Jack and I had a wonderful mutual understanding. With a greater bond than ever before, we went about our daily routines as usual. I was also able to explain to him what was going on with his father’s side of the family and why I was there to help them in the first place. I called it understanding, but it was more like coaxing him into it. Jack stated that he had no objections to anything that I did so long as I did not meet Benjie or Jay or any other guy by myself.
“I just don’t get it. I mean, Benjie is actually a nice person, and in the past, they were also pretty close and bonded together. So what is it about him that makes Aki so angry?” I told Jonah while sipping coconut juice.
We had just arrived at the beach resort that we had booked a few hours’ drive away from our city. I brought Jack with me, while Jonah brought both of her sons, Gio and Kyle, with her. Kyle was thirteen years old while Gio was nineteen. It had been quite some time since their father and Jonah had split and he was currently living abroad.
“Benjie, Benjie… Wait, you mean that Benjie dela Cruz? That good-looking young man who, back when we were in college together, resembled an actual fairytale prince? Jonah exclaimed while her eyes widened in surprise.
I quickly glanced toward the water, where Jack, Gio, and Kyle were having fun. They appeared to have discovered a volleyball beach ball and were completely absorbed in playing with other boys on the beach. I couldn’t help but smile at the sight.
“Yeah, he’s Jay’s younger brother,” I responded, returning my gaze to Jonah. “He couldn’t make it to our wedding because he was studying in another country at that time. As far as I know, at least.”
“Oh my god, you can’t be serious, can you? Mars, why are you just letting me know about this at this very moment? You should know that guy is handsome! How is it possible that I could have forgotten about him?” Jonah exclaimed while her eyes shone with excitement.
When I saw Jonah’s response, I couldn’t help but laugh and shake my head. “You truly are going off the deep end.”
“Well, is he single?” Jonah asked, her hunger clearly visible in her tone and gaze.
I stifled a chuckle and reached for my juice. “I really don’t know… But I don’t think he’s married yet,” I said with complete honesty. “He’s still in his early 30s. You might still have a shot.”
“Right? I still have my allure, and I can still put it to good use. Don’t you agree?” Jonah declared while proudly displaying her rounded and plump front end. “I’m telling you, mars. The members of that clan are all demigods. Amazing in both looks and talent! Look at Aki; he’s also really attractive.” After that, she let out a gasp and glanced at me, “Oh no, mars. What if your son is currently dating ten different girls at the same time right now? Gosh, Mars, you must brace yourself. You might even become a mother-in-law soon!”
I could not help but laugh before responding, “You really do have the wildest imaginations.”
I shook my head and started to consider the possibility that some of the things she said were, in fact, true. Although Jack disliked receiving an excessive amount of attention, it was not unusual for people to turn their heads and stare at him while he was outside. Even though Jonah and I were having a conversation at a distance from them, I could still see a few of the women looking at Jack and attempting to strike up a conversation with him every so often. Regardless of how much of a jerk his father was, the fact remained that his genes on his father’s side were quite good. This was a truth that could not be denied.
“Alright, let’s move on. I was wondering how things are going between the two of you and Ryan.” Jonah’s question came out of nowhere.
“Hmm, it’s okay,” I said. Ryan and I still went out sometimes, but our encounters were always friendly. He was the only person who knew I was pregnant at this moment other than myself. This month would mark the beginning of the second month of my pregnancy; nevertheless, I was still able to breathe normally because the pregnant bump had not yet become very noticeable.
I couldn’t help but think about how and when I should tell Jack about my current condition. If I were to tell him about it, I wonder what kind of response he would have. How would he take it? And… What kind of choice would he make?
It was clear, from the way he treated me, that he loved me in more ways than just the role of his mother. But what if the level of affection that he had for me could only go up to a certain point? What if he just wanted to show me how much he cared about me but never intended or wanted to start a family with me?
“Mom? What’s wrong? Are you okay?”
As I became engulfed in my own thoughts, I failed to see that Jack had already come and sat down next to me. As soon as I turned back, I realized that Jonah had already departed and was currently having fun at the beach with her children.
“Mom, are you okay? Do you feel unwell?” Jack asked me with a worried expression on his face and an anxious tone in his voice. Because his face was so close to mine, I was stunned for a few seconds.
“I-I’m fine….” I responded while attempting to avoid meeting his eyes.
I was caught off guard when Jack grabbed hold of my hand unexpectedly. I turned in the direction of Jonah, worried they would notice Jack holding my hand in such an intimate manner all of a sudden. Fortunately, they were too busy splashing around in the water to notice.
“Aki…” I called Jack in a low voice.
“They can’t see us,” Jack replied, tightening his grip on my hand even more. He then massaged it while looking at me with loving eyes. “I love seeing you and being with you like this, Mom.”
My heart softened the moment I heard Jack’s words. My heart quickened and my body started to heat up as we came closer to each other.
When I turned to face Jack, I saw that his neck had already begun to flush. My gaze moved downward, and I discovered my guess was correct. I could tell he was hard and turned on based on the size of the bulge that had already formed in his pants.
There weren’t many people around, so our intimate physical contact didn’t seem out of the ordinary. I seized the opportunity, especially considering that Jonah and her children were also occupied from a fair distance.NôvelDrama.Org holds this content.
I shifted my position and inched my way closer to Jack in order to place my hand on his bottom front. With only trousers to cover him from the waist down and no shirt, his nude upper body was clearly visible. I could see his toned muscles and abs, which added to his overall good looks and physique. This man… I couldn’t believe I had done so many crazy things with him.
I was beginning to feel aroused, so I carefully caressed Jack’s fully hard cock while it was in his shorts, with the table in front of us covering my movement as I did so.
“Ahh… Mom,” Jack moaned in pleasure as I gently squeezed his boner. The way it grew larger and began to twitch on my palm made it appear as though it was begging for relief, desperate to get out of its cage.
Jack looked at me with lust written all over his face. He kept trying to get closer, but I gently pulled him away and asked him to stop.
Coaxing him back, I granted his request and promptly inserted my hand inside his shorts. There I felt a bit wet not only because of the seawater but because of the liquid coming out of the head of his manhood. Jack’s penis was long, big, hard, and too hot in the palm of my hand.
“Aahh… Ma,” Jack moaned softly again. I increased the pressure that I was applying to Jack’s manhood by gripping it even more firmly.
It was hard as a rock. The sticky and extremely hot rubbing of it on my hand could be heard as I masturbated. I could see Jack was enjoying with the handjob I was giving him.
He approached me and merely kissed me on the lips, but I stopped him since I felt we could be caught because we were in public. “Later… when we go back to the room,” I murmured in a tone that was very gentle and low.
The intense heat that was building up between us had already begun to make me feel overwhelmed. I wanted him. I wanted to be connected with Jack. It was simply because I was caressing his cock with my hand, but I could feel that my lower region was already soaked, and to think that it was because of that…
Jack came a few minutes before Jonah and her children arrived. If it hadn’t been for Jonah and her children showing up, we would have kept going with our arduous and heated exercise. Eventually, Jack and I decided to put out the fire for a while and focus on spending time with Jonah and the others first. Anyway, we’d have plenty of time to do the things we wanted once we got back to the room or the city.
During the time when our children were playing beach volleyball, Jonah and I prepared a variety of seafood dishes. They continued to play with the people, both tourists and locals, in the area they had found earlier.
In the evening, we gathered on the beach to have a bonfire. The pleasant atmosphere of the day carried over into the conversation, making it feel calming and refreshing. In addition, Jonah brought some alcoholic beverages with her and even offered me one of them. I did not take it because I was already pregnant, even though no one else knew about it.
“Since when have you grown dissatisfied with Mig Light? This is your favorite,” Jonah told me, surprised after I declined the drink she gave me.
It was embarrassing to turn her down, so I just gave her a single smile as I said that I wasn’t interested in drinking tonight. I was utterly oblivious to the fact that Jack was staring at me at that time and would have seen the strangeness in the way I was behaving. Right then, I started to feel dizzy and nauseous, so I excused myself and went to the nearest restroom.
As usual, I vomited nothing and quickly returned to normal after taking a few of my nausea medications. I quickly washed my face and walked out of the restroom.
I was about to return to where Jack and the others were when I heard a familiar voice.
“Mom… Are you all right?”
Jack asked as he stood by the tree, his expression serious as he stared at me with full attention. It seemed as though he had been standing there for a considerable length of time waiting. And the way he looked at me told me he wasn’t going to take any lies from me tonight.
