92 Chapter 93: The Escapade

“Where’re we going?”

Reed was busy driving. Emy didn’t know where he was going to take her when they left the house. Reed just thought about doing something ordinary. He wants to make Emy happy. Reed doesn’t know why, but she’s happy when he’s happy.

Emy frowned when they reached a place she thought was Zambales. They parked at a hotel where she thought they would stay, but when Reed got the big bag and he pulled her into the restroom. It surprised her to see that it was the men’s room.

“Wait, Reed,” said Emy.

But when they went into the bathroom, Emy’s eyes grew wide when she saw it wasn’t a bathroom, but a beautiful place. It was a spot with a spectacular landscape that offered a view of the aquamarine colors of the crater lake, which was a dazzling diamond below.

“Wow...” Emy turned toward Reed. “What’s this place?”

“I don’t know, but it looks like an active volcano.”

Emy’s eyes grew bigger. “Active volcano? Which volcano?” Emy thought for a second. She remembered the park at a hotel in Zambales. “Mount Pinatubo?”

“Exactly.”

.....

Emy could not believe that Mount Pinatubo was that beautiful. They were affected when it exploded. He was still young.

Reed dropped the bag he was holding. He sat down and took the stuff out of the bag. Emy looked up and enjoyed the beautiful view before her. The sky was blue, and it was the beautiful place that she only saw in her dreams.

“Why did you drag me here? What are we going to...?” she asked Reed when he saw the tent was standing behind her. “Are we staying here?”

“Yes, just the two of us,” Reed said.

“You know you are really sweet. Are you sure that you don’t know how to fall in love? Because you’re good at making women fall for you.”

Reed just laughed and sat just outside the tent. He stretched out his hand, and Emy reached for it. He pulled Emy, and she sat in between his legs.

“We’ll be here for three days and two nights. Is that okay with you?”

“Of course, but is it OK that we’re here? I mean, this place could already be open in...”

Reed raised his hand, and black smoke came out of it and spread through the air. Emy saw that the black smoke was still flickering as if there were glitters in it that were shining because of the light from the sun.

“What’re you doing?” Emy asked.

“No one will see us here or hear us when they come to our place. We can see and hear them, but they don’t see or hear us.”

“Wow...” said Emy. “Why did you bring me here, tell me the truth?”

Reed leaned his chin on Emy’s shoulder. “I thought I couldn’t even do anything for you while Devin always saved your life because of all the trouble I made that put your life in danger.”

“Of course not. You know what you’re saying is not true.”

“Let’s face the facts, Wifey. Since we’ve met, I’ve caused you trouble.”

“Trouble is a part of human life. Because of this, we keep getting stronger. That’s why I don’t see trouble as a problem, but as a reason to improve and get better.”

Reed didn’t answer. He just hugged Emy closer.

“Devin, you’re here...” Eddie said when he saw Devin.

He looked at the three familiar faces in the house. The three servants there slightly bowed. Devin walked up to Eddie.

“Where is Emy?”

“Oh, she and Reed left earlier...”

“Where do they go?”

“Sir Devin!”

Devin and Eddie turned to see Jasmin coming toward the swimming pool with a tray of food. It looks like Emy’s siblings have a good relationship with her.

“Jasmin baked cookies. Come and try...” Eddie said this and then walked up to Jasmin.

Devin followed, and they went up to Jasmin. Eddie was sitting on a sofabed, and Devin was sitting on the edge of the pool. Jasmin sat beside him.

“You’re looking for Miss Emy, aren’t you?” Jasmin asked.

“Yes, but she’s not here,” Devin said.

“She and Sir Reed left early, and it looks like they will be gone for a long time because Sir packed a big bag for the travel.”

“Do you have any idea where they went?”

Jasmin moved her head no. “Miss Emy said nothing. She didn’t take their phones with her. They didn’t seem to want to be bothered...”

“That’s why I’m calling her but not answering.”

As she looked at Devin, Jasmin smiled. His face shows he is both angry and jealous at the same time.

“Is Sir Reed your cousin?”

“So?”

“So why do you like the same girl that your cousin likes?”

“Do you need the answer to your question?”

Jasmin chuckled. “You’re hoping Miss Emy will like you?”

“Are you purposely spreading rumors?”

“Ouch! Yeah, that hurts.” Jasmin said. “I’m only entertaining you because I know you’re bored. I guess you don’t want to talk to me, so I’ll leave...”

Devin grabbed Jasmin as she was about to stand up. “Fine. All right, just keep talking. I’m good with it.”

Jasmin chuckled. “You were the one who sent flowers last time, weren’t you?”

Devin smirked. “Yeah, I am.”

“You and Sir Reed are madly in love with Miss Emy...”

“Maybe.”

“You should also plan your moves, like Sir Reed.”

“What exactly do you mean?”

“Sir Devin, are you for real?”

“Really, what?”

“Have you ever courted anyone?”

“You know what I am like. We don’t need to court. ”

“But for our people and our women, courtship is important.”

“But how do I do that?”

“Send her some flowers...”

“You did, and you took it...”

Jasmin chuckled. “The chocolate is good, Sir, and I like it.”

Devin gave a headshake. “That’s good because it’s not for you.”

“Haist, are you mad at me because I took your flower, teddy bear, and chocolate?” Jasmin asked. “Miss Emy’s about to throw it because Sir Reed saw it.”

Devin said nothing and just kept looking at the water. Jasmin kept looking at Devin.

—-

Reed and Emy are cooking fish on a grill. As the sun went down, they sat there and enjoyed the beautiful view. They also drink beer while looking out at the lake.

“Damn, I could only dream of such a peaceful place.”

“Just tell me what you want, and I’ll make it happen.”

She frowned. “Well, no. You can’t give me all my wants. .”

Reed said nothing but just smiled. He looked at the lake while drinking a beer.

“Is Jasmin okay to be left there? How about you?”

“She’s alright. Stop thinking about them.” Reed said.

“Let’s just do a Q and A...”

“What’s it?”

“A question and an answer,” said Emy. “I’ll ask first.”

“Okay.”

.....

“Why can’t vampires see themselves in the mirror, but you can?”

Reed laughed when Emy asked a question. “Do you know what a mirror means?” Emy shook her head no. “It means “shadow soul” because it could show the true nature of the person reflected. Demons like me and vampires don’t have reflections because we have no souls to reflect on. So, that we don’t have a reflection shows what we are.”

“But you have reflections..”

“Because that’s what we want you to see. We can create illusions, but the vampire can’t.”

But that you don’t have a soul doesn’t mean you can’t love,” I said. “Love is a magic thing, a feeling. You can love.”

Reed didn’t answer and just drank his beer. He gives Emy his beer, which he has already opened.

“Have you noticed that all the houses have mirrors?” Reed asked. He wanted to switch topics. Emy nodded. “Mirrors are portals in some ways. Some demons, like the succus and incubus, used mirrors to get from one place to another. They sometimes use the mirror to get places. Some demons used it as a hiding spot. And sometimes using a candle in a dark room in front of a mirror isn’t a good idea either. You can see the other dimension, which is our world. If the fear doesn’t kill people, whatever has come through probably will.”

It surprised Reed when Emy suddenly splashed him with a lot of water.

“You’re scaring me, and it’s getting dark around here.”

Reed chuckled. “I’m a demon. You have every reason to be afraid.”

“You are a handsome demon, I won’t be afraid.” E my said smiling.

It’s nighttime. Emy quickly went up to Reed and grabbed his arm. Their only light comes from the moon and the fires Reed made in a bonfire and a stove.

“It was your fault because you scared me.”

Reed laughed as he finished the beer in the bottle he was holding.

“It’s time...”

“It’s time for what?”

Reed took Emy’s beer bottle. He put it on the mini table in front of them. Reed took off her shirt and told her to sit on his lap. In between Emy’s legs are Reed’s hips. Reed grabbed the back of Emy’s head and ran his finger from the back of her head down her neck to the top of her chest.

Emy got goosebumps because of what Reed did. Reed pulled Emy’s hair, which caused her back to lean backward and show him her chest. Reed moved the cloth that was on top of Emy’s chest and tucked it under her chest. Emy gasped when she felt Reed’s hot breath, which made her n-pple harden. He put that top in his mouth.

“Oh,” she said with a small moan.

He unhooked Emy’s bra and tossed it inside the tent. He pinched her other nipple with his two fingers and continued to play with the other one with his tongue.

“Oh, Reed..”

Reed’s lips moved from Emy’s collar bone up her neck until they reached her lips. He claimed Emy’s lips in a warm kiss. While he continued to lean in for a closer kiss, he cupped her head in his hands and gave her neck a little massage. Emy’s answer was automatic. It replied in such a way that they could almost catch their breath.

“As always, Wifey, you’re so sweet.”
