Finally?

The sky was cloudless, and I could see how bright the stars were shining. The moon was at its peak and everything was quiet.

For the first time, I was able to appreciate the peacefulness. The villa Mike rented for me and my children was big. My room was a bit far from Nicole and Claude. Duncan assured me that Colin and Fujin will be with the kids. 

My cousin was making sure we were comfy. I guess, he was disappointed with how things turned out. The party he threw was to celebrate that my lola was not sick. But also to acknowledge Duncan for his humanitarian work. But what happened was a disaster. 

Duncan stood behind me and drew me close to his body. I tilted my head to the side when I felt him nuzzling my neck. I heard his sharp intake of breath before I felt his tongue lick my skin.
