Destinies or sick games?

Eric's POV

I woke up early, not because I was unable to sleep but because I was an early morning person.

I looked to the other side and keera was lying down on the bed still asleep, she slept peacefully like an angel.

I guess she wasn't having a bad dream like yesterday. She looked so cute pouting while asleep.

I stood up from my bed and adjusted the blanket over her body, I then went to the spot where I take my bath and removed my clothes then got into the water. ..

My mind unintentionally drifted to the first time I saw her. I had just returned from picking up a few fruits that would last me a few days. Upon entering the cave I heard movement in the water.

I was confused at first because I knew fishes could not live in that particular water because of its temperature, so I thought maybe an animal or something had fallen in there, so I dropped the bag of fruits and went to check what was going on.

When I reached I saw what I least expected a girl... she was floating on the water with her eyes closed but not for long because I think she sensed my presence...

She opened her eyes slowly and looked at me probably confused, and I also stared back at her with the same bewilderment as if she was an alien...

I mean this is an island where the only living things here are the animals and me. I hadn't seen anyone ever since I came here.

Since that was the whole plan, to begin with, since I had come here to be alone, but seeing her here just kind of defeats the whole purpose.

All these thoughts were running through my head while I stared at her...

And then, she suddenly started screeching, and I got even more confused, I thought maybe something got her leg in the water I was almost about to get into the water to help her when I realized that she was naked.

That must have been the reason why she was screeching. I quickly turned my back to her and waited for her to get dressed. could she be a native of this island? I asked in my head but then I know this particular Island has no natives as I had conducted very detailed research before coming here, as I couldn't just storm into a dangerous Island to be alone...

I stood there, listening for her to get out of the water when she did come out of the water, I then waited for her to dress up before turning around and when I did I was shocked beyond measures...

Am sure she didn't see my facial expression because my turning around abruptly, knocked her off her feet...

I reached my hands out to hold her and stop her from falling, but I was too late because she fell to the ground with a thump, so I held out my hand to help her up, and she took it and stood up... Then said "hi I'm Akeera" I yanked my hand quickly...

Of course, she's Akeera, Akeera Duke Walter like who in the world doesn't know who Akeera is.

she's like a freaking celebrity. The famous arrogant princess of Duke Walter...

Her father is stinkingly rich like in a freakish way he has hundreds of companies scattered around the world.

So you can imagine my shock not only because she's Akeera but because how the fuck is she even here.

Is this maybe a private island of hers?... I doubt that though because if it was she would have had about a room full of bodyguards around and she probably wouldn't have been in this cave, I thought, or is this some sort of sick jokes that my father plays? which is very much likely.

Just the thought of it is what made me say "you're not welcome here", and then left.

I can't be a part of any sick games of my Dad. I said as I left but I then discarded the thought knowing nobody knows my whereabouts, but I also knew it was only a matter of time before that happens.

A part of me knew she wasn't gonna leave after I stormed off, so when I returned, I wasn't surprised that she was still there, but I asked her why she's still here.

She then asked me if she could stay and I said nothing, and I think she took that as a no because she left afterward.

I followed her slowly wanting to see where she was going, perhaps to meet my dad or his men.

But she seemed to be walking without a destination. So I told her she should come back to the cave for two reasons;1.because she probably has nowhere to go and 2.out of mere curiosity.

I was surprised when she introduced herself to me but then I counted it as part of the act. Until she told me about the fact that she lost her memories.

Her name seems to be the only thing she remembers. She doesn't even know how she got here according to her.

Part of me believes her because of how she cried yesterday. But the other part of me thinks it's all an act.

All these things were replaying in my mind when I heard movement behind me, I turned around and saw keera trying to remove her clothes.

"What do you think you are doing?!" I asked and she stumbled a little because her clothing was covering her eyes. She quickly put it back on before looking at me.

She stood there ogling at me probably fantasizing like all girls do when they see male models, which is annoying.

I rolled my eyes and said, "you should take a picture it lasts longer." sarcasm apparent in my voice...

That snapped her out of her short-lived fantasy. Because she blushed so hard her whole face was red before running out of the cave probably from embarrassment.

The way she ran was so funny I couldn't help but laugh as I'm sure that was not part of the act.

Even if all these were an act, I would just watch her silently and enjoy the show...

Somehow when I told her she could come back to the cave I knew I was throwing away my only chance at being alone and finding inner peace...

However, I later concluded that Keera showing up here could either be because our destinies were entangled or because of my father's sick games...
