"Sir? What can I do for you?" Passed midnight, Andrew made a phone call to his assistant, Wendell Reyes. "Wendell, I need you to do a background check on someone for me. Kenzie Wright of Monroe City in the US. I sent you the details in the email. I need to know everything about her. Your life depends on it," Andrew directed while trying to keep his voice down.  "Well, since you put it that way, Sir. I will do as you say. I'll check with our resources and let you know soon," Wendell replied.  Andrew did not want to have to find out this way. He earnestly preferred to hear everything from Kenzie, but he felt strong walls guarding her when it came to her background. For the life of him, he could not fathom it. Most girls in her shoes would have already given him their life's story, but not Kenzie. A week had passed, and she remained a mystery to him. Andrew could only hold on to her name. Thus, he just had to know more.  "Wait

"Kenzie, can I kiss you?"  The request repeated in her head again and again.  Kenzie was not shocked at all. Andrew was always teasing and to say there was sexual tension between them was an understatement.  Andrew, asking for a kiss, did not surprise her. It did, however, sparked butterflies in her stomach, a sensation that was far louder and rowdier than she ever felt for Brad, her fake boyfriend of two years. 'Wait, why am I feeling anxious? This would not be the first time we would kiss,' she asked herself, still maintaining to bury her face in Andrew's solid chest.  'Do I want to kiss him? Of course, silly! You dreamt of him doing it! Just get over it and get some relief!' Quietly, she scolded herself.  Kenzie knew she was in denial. Why? Maybe it was because she had recently gotten off a bad relationship and that she was hurt badly? The truth was, Kenzie was not sure if she was ready for this again. 

Day ten on the cruise.  'Andrew was busy,' Kenzie reminded herself as she walked on her own, into the outlets of the ship. She did not really know what she wanted to buy, but when Andrew told her he was going to have an emergency video conference call, she decided to do some shopping.  For the past two hours, she had not bought anything, her mind just constantly drifting to Andrew, wondering what he was doing.  She sighed, realizing; she had gotten used to being with Andrew these past few days, that she did not seem to know what to do without him.  Out of nowhere, two ladies called from behind her. "Kenzie! Do you want to join us?" It was Jessica, and she was with Alice. Jessica hastened her pace to Kenzie's direction and suggested, "There is an adult shop on the ship and we are going to check it out!" "Trust me, hon. Husbands love toys," remarked Alice, winking at Kenzie.  Instantly, Kenzie fro

Sure, Kenzie felt like she and Andrew had a connection, and while she was expecting them, or at least hoped for them to continue on with whatever it was they had to go after the cruise, she was not expecting a marriage proposal.  "Kenzie, say something. You've been staring at me blankly for a minute now," Andrew pleaded, holding both her arms.  Her mouth parted, but no words came out. She closed them back and took a deep breath. Only then did she manage to answer, "Don't get me wrong, Andrew. I like you, but we - we barely know each other." "We obviously like each other and I know this sounds crazy, but I really want this," he said and urged. "Take that leap of faith with me." With his words, Kenzie rose from the couch and requested, "Andrew, I - I think, we should give ourselves time to think about this, especially you." "Kenzie," Andrew stood up, blocking her from leaving. It was obvious to her that she was fleeing. From what Kenzi

There was no point hesitating. When Kenzie offered to kiss and make up, Andrew grabbed her by the waist and captured her lips.  It was soft and sweet, filled with burning desire.  Andrew sensed a hint of sweet cherry from her pinkish rims, and he easily felt elated at her blossom scent. Kenzie, on the other hand, felt warmth from his tongue. It was strong and intoxicating, especially since he had taken a few drinks. Still, it did nothing to lessen his inciting taste. In the middle of a crowded bar, from within the Imperial Cruise, two godly frames did not hold back from kissing each other with passion.  People could not help but stare, as if they were in a movie, admiring the leads of a romance story.  Kenzie and Andrew had nothing but longing in the way they held each other and how their eyes closed as they kissed.  When the two finally broke off from the kiss, Kenzie smiled brightly at Andrew,
