My Island in the Sun Ch 04

My island in the sun Ch 04

A man finds his Greek roots and his dream island

This is part of a series. If you haven't already done so, I would suggest reading the previous chapters, so this one will make sense. Take it as read that Greek is being spoken throughout this chapter. Any characters engaged in sexual acts of any description are at least 18 years of age or older.

I have written in English, mainly due to the fact that I am not fluent in Greek, and I want to reach out to the most readers with my story.

The intrepid group aboard the Targa, the 38ft RIB (rigid inflatable boat) arrived back at the home port of Steni Vala, to see Kostas standing at the bow of the Sanlorenzo SX112, looking out for them.

As they got nearer to docking, AJ could see a look of obvious relief, as a radiant smile carved its way onto his face.

"Where have you been?" shouted Kostas, "when I got up on deck for breakfast, Nikos only told me that you three took off armed to the teeth, only to return now with Aella."

"Let's get something to eat and drink first," replied Dimitri. "There's a lot to explain, and I can't do that on an empty stomach, some of us missed breakfast!"

At that moment, AJ had gone off to find Mara, knowing that, what they would need to discuss couldn't be spoken about in a public taverna.

AJ found Mara and Nikos in the engine room. Mara was explaining something about engines to Nikos, but it went straight over AJs' head.

"I was going to ask if you could make something up for lunch for all of us Mara, but if you're busy, I'll run out and bring some things back from one of the local tavernas' " AJ simply stated.

"We are only running through the protocols for planned maintenance. As the San Lorenzo is new to us I want to be ahead of the game, and make sure we cover all the bases, replied Mara, "By the way, you will need to name her!"

"Well, there's something else to talk about as well then!"

"Give us five minutes to clean up and I'll put a lunch together, Mara said with a smile.

"Nikos get up to the saloon and get everyone a nice cold Mythos, AJ for one certainly looks like he needs it!"

Half an hour later and AJ was enjoying his second ice cold Mythos, in a frosted glass. They were all sitting in the Sky lounge, spread across the three Mirto chaise lounges, the hard top louver roof system shading them from the early afternoon sun.

Mara had whipped up an impressive selection of food, in next to no time. They had snacked on pita bread with Tzatziki dip while they waited, enjoying their first cool, refreshing beers.

Nikos assisted Mara in bringing all the food to the low table, where they all enjoyed "Island salad" made up of rocket lettuce, raisins, walnuts, pomegranate vinaigrette, topped with gruyere cheese.

There were also stuffed mushrooms, stuffed vine leaves, stuffed peppers, spinach pie and giant beans.

Kostas praised Mara, "once again you have excelled yourself sweetheart and people are going to think I'm only with you for your cooking skills!"

"I think you also enjoyed my performance in the cabin in the early hours of this morning, Kostas. And that had nothing to do with my culinary skills," Laughed Mara.

"Well, it did involve eating something, if my memory serves me correctly," chuckled Kostas.

Mara blushed effusively and started to clear away the plates quickly to avoid further embarrassment, although she only pretended to be uncomfortable, as she loved Kostas with every fibre of her being.

Secretly Mara craved his attention. He always put her own pleasure in before his own, and she often had to bite her pillow, so as to not wake others as she screamed out her satisfaction. Something Kostas was very proud of!

Mara, along with Nikos' help, quickly loaded all the plates and cutlery into the ISE evolution 200 rapid dishwasher in the galley, they then returned and rejoined the others.

AJ said it was time to explain the events of that morning to Kostas, Mara, Georgos and Nikos. "I think it calls for Ouzo," he proclaimed.

He walked to the bar and collected a Bottle of Plomari, Lykos followed and put a bucket of ice and enough glasses for them all on a tray, then followed AJ back to the Sky lounge.

As they sat around, sipping their Ouzo, AJ regaled them with all the details, starting from the moment he was startled when Aella surprised him with her telepathic mind projection, while Lykos and he were out running.

Lykos interrupted, laughingly telling of his embarrassment of being carried piggyback for three kilometres.

AJ then ran through all the events that happened from when they sped away on the Targa, through to the revelations of what he found out about Andreas Papadopoulos. He became very quiet as he explained the aftermath, and the actions he took against Andreas.

Aella moved closer as she sat next to him grasping his hand. Again he felt her telepathic push in his mind as she transmitted calming thoughts through their bond.

AJ and Aella then jumped into telepathic conversation, so she could reinforce her belief in his deeds!

"You must remember, you had no choice but to do what you did, AJ. Andreas was a dangerous monster. I, for one, am glad he's gone," implored Aella.

"I appreciate that Aella, but to take a life is never an easy thing to do. All through my military career I found it hard to come to terms with, even when it was a kill or be killed situation!"

"That's why I love you AJ, you have a pure heart. I truly believe you have been chosen by Athena to bring justice to our small part of the world!"

"I love you too Aella, with all my heart. There has never been anyone else for me. I poured my all into my military career; I have not even kissed anyone before, until you kissed me earlier."

"I haven't either AJ, apart from family, of course!"

"We make a perfect couple of lemons Aella" chuckled AJ.

"Well, we have the rest of our lives to practice" beamed Aella.

They turned back to the others, who were looking at them both with utter bewilderment.

"You two seemed completely absorbed in your own world there," stated Dimitri.

"Sorry, we are still getting our heads around this connection we have, where we can speak with each other telepathically, and forget everyone else can't hear us!" snickered AJ.

Kostas exclaimed, "I for one, and I think I can speak for everyone, fully understand and agree with the actions you took."

At this point, even the normally quiet captain Georgos spoke up, "You had no choice AJ, the thought of what could have happened if you hadn't taken the steps that you did is absolutely horrifying!"

"The consequences of inaction would have been unthinkable," interjected Lykos. "AJ, you have nothing to reproach yourself for, what you did was truly admirable."

Mara thought it best to lighten the mood at this point. "I have the islands sign writer on standby, so you need to choose a name for this fine vessel!"

"I can then fire of an email to the authorities to have it registered as well." remarked Kostas.

"I was thinking that I would like Aella to choose a name, as that would make me so happy," blurted out AJ.

"So, you're saying it's my choice AJ."

"Yes," he simply stated.

"Well, there you have it, the name of your boat!"

AJ was mystified, "what is the name then?"

"Aellas Choice!" she proudly proclaimed.

There was a moment or two of silence, then roars all around, as they laughed and pronounced they all thought it hilarious, but absolutely brilliant!

"I'll call Panagiotis, and see how soon he can come and get it done," shouted Mara, excitedly.

At that moment Perseus, whom AJ now thought as an integral part of him spoke to him. "You need to rest AJ, as your powers are so new, they will take some getting used to and tire you quickly if your equilibrium is not replenished, it is vitally important to find a balance!"

AJ had to admit he did feel himself flagging somewhat, and announced he was going to get some rest, and have a quick nap.

As he rose and went to move towards the stairs to the cabins, Aella arose walked towards him and said, "Come with me AJ, the Masters cabin is now yours!"

"I told you Aella, I won't move you out of there." Said AJ somewhat stubbornly.

"Don't worry AJ, you won't be moving me anywhere!" then she took his hand, looked into his eyes, and spoke softly. "Do you understand what I'm saying?"

"Clearly, I told you years ago I'll follow you anywhere!"

Aella looked back over her shoulder at Dimitri. "We will only be resting father, do not worry."

"I'll always worry Aella, but not about that. Not where you two are concerned. Just don't give me any grandchildren yet!" he laughed.

"We are not doing that." Aella replied indignantly.

Everyone except AJ and Aella broke down laughing at that point. This, after all that had happened so far that day, helped AJ beyond belief.

As AJ walked towards the bed, he turned, looking at Aella in nervous anticipation. But all he saw reflected in her eyes was a look of adoration. Aella took of her sundress, underneath; she wore only a pale blue thong.

AJ stood frozen, struck speechless by the sheer perfection that was Aella. Her beauty overwhelmed him, her face a masterpiece, her eyes deep pools he could drown in. Each word she spoke from those luscious lips mesmerized him, she could ask anything of him, and he would give her the world. At that moment, he was hers to command as she wished.

Her skin was lightly tanned and flawless, not a blemish in sight, oh how he wished to check every square inch to make sure he would not find any.

"AJ, will you help me remove my thong, my hands are shaking, I'm so nervous, but I have dreamt of this moment for so long. So long, I never thought it would come!"

AJ finally regained movement in his body, and stepped forward and knelt at her feet. He reached up, took hold of the straps, and slowly peeled the thong down her finely toned legs. As he uncovered her mons, he instinctively leant forward, placing a few gentle kisses on that most sacred of places.

He smelt her sublime fragrance, her arousal was evident, as it washed over his senses, and the only word that came to AJ's mind was divine, he knew he would never get enough of this heavenly offering.

As he removed the thong from her feet, again, he was astounded, even her feet and toes appeared ethereal, as if sculpted by the finest Greek craftsman.

He ran his eyes back up her body, stopping to appreciate her breasts. Beautifully cone shaped, topped with delightfully puffy nipples. They were a shade darker than her skin, and suited her frame spectacularly.

"Your turn!" Aella playfully whispered.

AJ, quickly shed his shorts and vest top.

Aella whistled, "I think you were given the wrong name, you should have been called Adonis."

Aella admired AJ's physique, his muscled arms and chest, looked as though they were chiselled from granite. She felt drawn to run her hands over his chest, loving the feeling of her fingertips softly moving over the hairs on his Pecs.

Just as AJ had done for her, Aella sunk to her knees before him; she quickly divested AJ of his briefs, and was yet again welcomed with an amazing sight.

AJ's member was as impressive as the rest of his body, although she had nothing else to compare it to, never having seen one before. Aella was captivated by its' perfect form and in its' erect state she guessed it must be at least eight inches long.

She looked up and marvelled in his eyes, the circle of gold around his brown irises, drew her in like a moth to a flame.

In that one single look, she could see the depth of his love as AJ gazed back down upon her; Aella knew then, that her whole life had been leading her to this epic moment.

Without thought, Aella took him into her mouth, swirling her tongue around the head. She was hoping that it felt as great for AJ, as it was for her just doing it for him.

Aella swept her tongue down along the ridge that ran to the base where she took one of his balls into her mouth and sucked lightly. Wow, she was enjoying this, and was acting on pure instinct. But from the moaning she could hear from above, Aella knew it must be okay.

As she released him and ran her lips back up his shaft, she could feel his heartbeat rising, and his breathing getting shorter. Aella wasn't sure what this meant, but once more she captured his crown between her lips, and drew him inside her mouth.

Aella sucked on him like a lollipop, and within moments AJ was gasping!

"I'm going to cum Aella!"

Upon hearing this Aella just started sucking harder, and took him deeper into her mouth. Seconds later, Aella felt his cock harden as she felt a surge of semen flow into her throat. She gulped as fast as she could.

The taste was not unpleasant as some of her friends had told her. Aella also knew she wanted to explore further with this new toy of hers!

Aella felt so powerful that she could please her man in this way, a feeling of pride washed over her, she softly asked, "was that alright baby, did it feel good?"

"Good, that was so far beyond good! Gasped AJ, as he sunk back onto the bed. "I have never experienced anything that felt as glorious as that."

Aella was proud that AJ was so effusive in his praise of her efforts. "I've never done that before, but I absolutely loved doing it. You will have to get used to that happening again!"

"You can do that again, as many times as you like. I only hope I can perform with the same gusto when I return the favour!"

"I have no doubt that you will leave me feeling no less fully satisfied when the time comes baby. But for now I think we should take a nap."

Aella climbed up next to AJ and they moved up into the centre of the bed. He took her into his arms, kissing her deeply, which left him knowing he could never get enough of this magnificent creature, even if he were to live a thousand life times.

Aella nestled into his shoulder, resting her cheek on his chest. She could feel his breathing getting deeper, and as she felt him drift off, she felt a depth of contentment she would hold in her heart forever, and closing her eyes, quickly followed him into slumber.

Sometime later, as she awoke, Aella glanced upwards, to see AJ looking down upon her his wondrous eyes deep in concentration.

"What are you thinking about my love?" she asked.

"I was just wondering about the deep love I have for you, after having you as my best friend for most of my life."

"But now, I could never imagine not being able to hold you in my arms as I am now. I would be lost and incomplete without you in my life!"

"Look into my eyes AJ, do you see my love reflected back just as strongly. Nothing ever before has felt as right, as the love I feel for you right now."

"How long have we slept AJ?"

"A little over two hours," replied AJ glancing at his smart watch.

"I suppose we should go back up on deck and see what's happening then!"

"I could lay here with you in my arms forever!" was AJ's simple reply.

"There will be plenty of time for that later."

With that they got out of bed, Aella said she wanted to take a shower, and AJ said he would also have one in the guest cabin, then meet her back up in the Sky lounge. With that they both got their things together ready for their respective showers.

AJ was topside before Aella, but expected that, even as children Aella would luxuriate under the warm shower spray, even when he was repeatedly at the door knocking saying he also needed a turn!

"Hi AJ" do you feel refreshed now," asked Nikos innocently.

AJ blushed furiously, thinking about the wonderful blowjob that Aella had given him, which left him feeling relaxed and deeply contented.

"I certainly needed that nap, he answered, trying to cover his embarrassment. "Where is everyone else?"

"Oh, Kostas and Mara always take a nap together in the afternoon when they can fit it in" Nikos winked with his reply.

"Lykos has gone with Georgos over to Skopelos to get some housekeeping supplies that Mara needed, and Dimitri has not been gone long, he has taken Panagiotis back home, as he had finished signwriting the new name on her."

AJ leant over the side of "Aellas Choice" to see the name beautifully written in bold Constantia font.

"That looks absolutely stunning; I can't wait to show Aella!"

"Show me what?" Aella asked as she walked over from the stairs in the saloon.

Aella had only caught the back end of the conversation. "The yacht's been named; we can call her by her proper name now."

Aella squealed, then ran to the stern and leapt off onto the dockside. She ran both ways, looking as excited as she did on her birthdays, opening her presents.

"I think she approved."

"This is just the start of the new chapter of our lives, baby," she shouted out.

As she was still happily jiggling about, AJ was busy admiring the way her obviously unfettered breasts jostled around inside her dress. At that moment they were two extremely happy people, just for different reasons!

At that moment Dimitri pulled in by "Aellas Choice" on a quad bike.

"You two have finally managed to crawl out of bed then?" he jested!

"Where did you get this?" said AJ, gesturing to the quad bike.

"I need to take you to the compound to show you what's available for use here on the island." explained Dimitri.

"I'll take him Dad," said Aella, still bubbling over with excitement.

In that moment, watching Aellas' exuberance, AJ felt like he was witnessing something he had always wished for, something meant only for him, and him alone.

"Ok, here are the keys, don't be too long you two, I know Mara has an evening meal planned"

Aella jumped onto the quad ready to drive off, leaving AJ with room to sit behind her.

Aella twisted the throttle and away they went. She set a sedate pace, explaining, "no-one drives fast on the island, there is no need to speed at all, as nowhere is far away anyway"

Aella was right after a left turn at the end of the harbour road they approached a wire fenced compound, AJ remembered passing it on his run that morning.

Taking the keys from Mara, he sauntered up to the double gates and unlocked the padlock that chained them together.

Opening the one gate, Mara drove the quad through, and over to a large outbuilding. There was not much outside space. The available area mainly devoted to indoor storage. AJ could see that the outdoor area would facilitate space inside, when moving things around.

AJ walked over to where Mara had parked to the side of the main doors.

"Use the big Gold coloured key to unlock the doors AJ!"

AJ inserted the key into the lock. Then went to push down on the handle, but nothing happened.

"Pull the handle out until you feel it click!"

AJ did as Aella said, pulling on the handle gently, he felt it moving smoothly and then, as she had said AJ felt the mechanism click as it engaged with something inside.

"Now you can open it normally, they open outwards, by the way"

AJ, pushed down on the handle an then, pulling the door towards him it opened as he moved backwards.

Aella had walked inside and had hit the light switch just as AJ had come inside to join her.

AJ stood for a moment taking it all in. There were four more Kawasaki quad bikes, along with two dirt bikes. AJ was startled to see two Jeep Wrangler Rubicon, soft tops like the one Giorgos drove on Skiathos. One was slate grey; however the other was finished in pearlescent pink.

"Mara or I drive that one mostly, no-one else seems to want to for some reason," Aella tittered.

Over to one side was another RIB, sitting on a trailer. "We can lift that up onto "Aellas Choice" using the tender crane on the beach club area at the stern."

"That reminds me, I need to show you the gym and sauna!"

"Gym, sauna?" he asked her.

"Oh yes there's more to Aellas Choice than you see when first looking at her. There are even fold down platforms on each side of the beach club area if we need more space when docked!" explained Aella.

AJ was amazed!

Three other vehicles caught AJ's eye.

"They are Polaris RZR XP 1000cc Beach buggies, two are four seaters, and the other is a two seater. Using them, makes the whole island accessible. Along with quad bikes we have enough vehicles to cover most situations that may arise."

AJ was impressed. "Shall we drive the two seater Polaris back, I fancy taking it for a spin!"

"I'll pull the quad back inside if you want to drive it outside."

AJ Jumped in the drivers' seat fired it up and pulled it outside. He then jumped off and headed over to the door ready to close up.

Aella drove the quad bike back inside killing the engine as she jumped off to walk over to where AJ was waiting for her at the door.

He pushed the door closed, then lifted the handle to engage the lock and pushed it back in till once again he felt the click.

"It's a great locking system, although it is a rather simple idea that Lykos came up with he just modified the existing mechanism, so it disengages when the handle is not in the correct position."

"To be honest there is no crime on the Island as such. Any crime that does happen is by the tourists, there are only just over three thousand islanders. And they're an honest bunch. There are only two police officers until the tourist season that tells you all you need to know."

"They mainly sit in one of the tavernas, just listening to people telling their stories. They just have to show a presence really!"

Aella jumped in the other side of the Polaris and AJ drove it over just outside the gate, where he jumped out, closed and padlocked the gate. Then jumping back in he turned in the seat leant over towards Aella and closed his lips over hers.

Aella responded, opening her mouth and running her tongue over AJs', the passion flowing between them was so new to them both and they wanted more, so much more!

However, they knew though that this was not the time or the place, reluctantly they parted lips and gazed longingly at each other.

"Let's go for a little drive eh?" said AJ.

He drove off in the same direction as he had on his run that morning, enjoying the moment with Aella by his side. They stopped, for a few minutes to enjoy the view that stretched out before them. Down the gentle slope of the hill they could see "Aellas Choice" sitting at her berth in the harbour.

They got out of the Beach Buggy and AJ stood against the side leaning back against it. Aella moved to stand in front of him, settling back against his muscular chest. He nuzzled her neck as he wrapped her arms around her kissing a spot just below her ear.

Aella responded with a purr, breathlessly whispering to AJ, that she thought this was the most perfect of positions to find herself in. With the most perfect man she could ever wish for.

AJ was amazed that everything was developing as it was, as they were both new to the love game. He was just over the moon that in his arms, he had the most idyllic playmate he could dream of!

Aella turned in his arms, tilting her head backwards to gaze up into his face, a face which she had known her whole life. But at this moment it was like she was seeing it for the first time.

She loved his new close cropped beard, and longer hair which came down just past his ears. It had a gentle wave to it and framed his high cheek bones, which then drew you to those mesmerising eyes.

Oh, those eyes, ever since he came into his powers, the gold rim around his irises made him even all the more captivating to her.

Before long though, they had to return to "Aellas Choice". So they jumped back into the Polaris and AJ soon had them on their way down the hill road, towards the harbour.

The surrounding countryside was magnificent in the early spring, flowers poking their heads up and mother goats with their new kids, bleated all around them, as if they were welcoming AJ to the island.

Within a few minutes they rolled along the harbour front and pulled up next to "Aellas Choice".

Kostas called out to them as they climbed out of the beach buggy, "Come on up to the Bow area, Dimitri is waiting there, and we have things to chat to you about."

They were about to board when a massive Greek shepherd dog came sprinting their way. He sat down at AJ's feet and looked up, then just waited as if asking a question of him!

AJ looked down at the large dog. The dog, which was mainly white in colour, with some dark brown patches dotted around, although he had light brown areas over the top of his eyes and cheeks.

Suddenly, AJ noticed the dogs' eyes, they were dark brown with gold rims around the irises, similar to his own.

He reached down with the back of his hand offering it to the dog for a sniff, so he would know AJ was no threat to him.

The dog didn't take a smell, he just gave AJ's hand a slobbering lick, which made Aella chuckle.

AJ gave the dog a scratch behind the ear, and then took Aellas' hand to board the vessel. "See you boy," he called over his shoulder as they made their way up onto the Beach club and walked to the bow area, where the others were waiting for them.

AJ and Aella, moved towards a massive bean bag, they eased themselves down, their bodies naturally leaning toward one another as they settled in together.

"As we are going to the bank over in Skiathos tomorrow, I have also told Christos, your lawyer that we will be coming to see him. You will have papers to sign, taking full control over everything." explained Kostas.

"Lykos is moving the other RIB over here in case it's needed as we will take the Targa tomorrow. We'll also pop in on Giorgos and catch up on any news, while we're over there."

Dimitri looked at his daughter, "Aella, I am going to say this, although it may be redundant now. Before you strike up any further relationships, we must complete full background checks beforehand."

"You know full well your mother would have not fallen into a situation like you did with Andreas. We cannot afford for that to happen again. Especially now that AJ is here."

"Dad, definitely not any friendships from now on, will involve me and AJ as a couple with any person we meet. I intend to remain at his side always!"

AJ turned towards Aella, simply kissing her forehead tenderly as reassurance that her feelings were reciprocated.

"I have already thought of protocols to put in place in order to identify any threat that may arise, although we will need to assess the full extent of AJ's powers, as he can read the minds of anyone we come across, which will hopefully eliminate a lot of background work, "stated Aella simply.

"I suggest we move to the saloon for some pre dinner drinks as Mara has planned for a meal to be served as the sun sets, which should be in the next hour," concluded Kostas.

Just as they were moving towards the saloon, Lykos moored next to them in the 28ft Ribeye, and with mooring ropes in hand leapt off onto the harbour and quickly secured the RIB.

"Just in time for drinks, my friend, shouted AJ. "You must have a sixth sense for knowing when Mythos is about to be poured."

"Not really, it's just gone seven in the evening so I actually thought I'd be playing catch up by now," laughed Lykos.

While Mara was putting the finishing touches together for the meal Nikos was busy serving drinks. AJ made sure Nikos poured one for himself, and asked him for a chilled white wine, which AJ took down to the galley for Mara.

"Oh you lovely man, you do read minds, don't you! I was just dreaming of a nice large glass of chilled wine. This is normally Kostas' job."

"I just wanted to see you creating your magic, so I may have pre-empted Kostas slightly," AJ chuckled.

"What are we having tonight?"

"We have slow cooked Squid in a creamy white wine sauce and grilled shrimp served on a light salad for the choices of starter." Mara told him

"For the main course I have had Lamb Kleftiko simmering away since ten o'clock this morning. We also have Pork Steaks, whatever isn't used I'll keep for the three of us that are stuck here in harbour tomorrow while the rest of you go on a jaunt over to Skiathos."

"I'll leave you to finish off, but my mouth is watering now and I can't wait to see your creations on the table!"

AJ headed back up to the Saloon, but on his way, something made him go back to the Beach club at the stern before he did so. As he looked over he saw the Shepherd dog lying next to the Polaris, he could see he was watching "Aellas choice" intensely. He wondered why the dog was hanging around.

He wandered back to the saloon, wondering why the dog was hanging around.

"Here AJ, I've just poured you a fresh Mythos, shouted Nikos, "you let the last one get too warm, and that's a sacrilege for any good Greek man!"

AJ took it from Nikos, saying "efcharisto, Yia mas" (thank you, cheers). He turned, and sauntered over to stand next to Aella, and in doing so slipped his arm around her waist, in reply Aella leant into him, resting her head against his shoulder.

Dimitri and Kostas simply winked to each other with knowing smiles on their faces.

The light above the food lift started blinking. Lykos and Nikos went over, opened the glass front and lifted out the starter course and took it to the table in the dining area.

Mara joined them and they all sat down at the table.

AJ enjoyed the squid; he thought the creamy sauce complimented the texture of the squid perfectly. He was delightfully surprised when he found out that Nikos and been diving and caught three of them, fresh this morning.

"Would you like to try some of my shrimp?" Aella asked AJ sweetly, offering him her fork, speared with a shrimp. AJ nodded and Aella leant towards him and popped it into his mouth. He could tell from the taste, that these were fresh as well.

Mara told him she had bought them fresh form the fishing boat that morning too.

"You just can't get better than eating fresh, can you!" exclaimed AJ.

Everyone laughed, "We're used to this," said Nikos. "But you can soon tell when you're eating something that's not freshly caught. But Mara doesn't go out and catch a lamb every day." Nikos then howled with laughter.

AJ just sat there and contemplated on how much his life had changed over the last two days. Not in all his dreams could he have predicted what his new start had already given him.

He felt truly blessed. To be surrounded by people he now considered friends and had the love of the most beautiful of women.

Aella told him he should have the lamb Kleftiko. "Mara makes the best, I have ever tasted, and I've had a lot of them!"

AJs' mind was made up, that's what he chose as a main course he had a glass of red wine to accompany it, Dimitri told him the wine came from a vineyard owned by an uncle of Tassias' the owner of the taverna they dined at the night before.

The Lamb was so succulent and it melted I your mouth and the baby potatoes in the sauce, were absolutely delicious. He looked over to Mara, who nodded, saying "Yes, dug fresh this morning after breakfast!"

"I needed something to do, after being left out of your adventure." Kostas smiled.

Dimitri chuckled "That's what happens if you lie in bed half the day."

After everyone had finished, and exclaimed they were too full for any dessert, they retired to lounge in the saloon.

Aella drew AJ with her to sit together on one of the sofas. Before he sat though he asked Dimitris to join him on the beach club as he had a private matter he needed to discuss urgently. Taking Aellas hand in his he told her he would be back in a few minutes.

On reaching the Beach club with Dimitri he turned to the man whom he respected more than any other. The man had brought him up after all.

AJ started talking quickly, "Dimitri, I am in love with Aella. I mean I have always loved her, but before today it was as friends, I now love her more deeply than I ever thought possible. I will protect her with my whole being!" he finally stopped to draw a breath.

"I need your permission to ask her to marry me. Please give your consent, or I will not know what I would do!"

Dimitri smiled in return, "The two of you were destined to be together. There has never been anyone else for Aella. Both Larissa and I always noticed the puppy dog eyes she used, whenever she looked at you."

"There has never been anyone else for me either, I swear to you. I had never kissed anyone before Aella," AJ promised Dimitri.

"Go and get your girl!" Dimitri chortled.

They both heard a bark and turned to see the shepherd dog looking at AJ. He was wagging his head, and appeared to be smiling, if dogs could smile.

AJ shook his head, they then turned to walk back to the saloon.

As they arrived back, AJ sat down next to Aella, taking hold of her hand. As he did so he slid to one knee.

"Aella, you are not only my best friend, but the love of my life. I can't imagine a single day without you. I now see that the path we were meant to walk has always been the same one, one we're destined to take together. Will you make me the luckiest man alive and say you'll be my wife?"

"Yes!" shouted Aella, you have made me the happiest woman on the whole planet, I love you with all my heart, I will spend every day for the rest of our lives showing you just how much!"

"Champagne," Mara called out, "Nikos fetch a couple of bottles from the wine cooler, I'll collect the glasses. This is a glorious night for celebration."

They partied for some hours, but in all that time the two lovebirds were never away from each other except for a couple of comfort breaks.

AJ was euphoric and felt like he could fly to the highest mountain.

"You have chosen the wisest path AJ," Perseus spoke, from within AJ himself. "You have the support only true love can provide. It will prove to be the best decision you will ever make." With that Perseus went quiet again!

AJ knew that Perseus spoke the truth. He felt a deep connection with Aella that had only grown stronger when he had picked up the golden thread linking him to her. That had to have great meaning.

He wrapped her in his arms, gazing into Aellas wondrous eyes with a tenderness that made the world disappear. "My love," he whispered, "I think it's time we left the party."

Aella turned and gave out a large, theatrical yawn. "I am so tired all of a sudden; AJ has kindly agreed to tuck me into bed!"

A loud cheer rang out onboard, as the two lovers made their way across the saloon and descended the stairs. As they reached the master cabin, passion overtook them, and their clothes slipped away like a breath of gentle wind, scattered to the four corners of the room.

AJ took Aella in his arms and laid her gently in the centre of the bed. Supporting himself over her, he lowered his lips to hers and felt the sweet passion that emanated from deep within her soul.

Although their love was new, the bond between them was built on years of deep friendship. Now that spilt out into a fire that swirled between them.

Both knew that fate had brought them both to this moment, all that had passed before was momentary compared to the future they would build together.

AJ grasped her head within his hands with an uncontrolled frenzy. He reigned kisses all over her face, and worked his way down her cheeks to her neck, leaving small butterfly kisses on his journey down her body.

AJ really did not have a clue what he was doing, a total novice when it came to women and the female body.

What he did know however, were the moans coming from Aella, told him he was getting something right!

As he reached her collarbone he sucked her skin into his mouth, leaving numerous tiny marks covering her flesh.

Aella was lost in her passion, never before had she felt such a fire build within her. AJ was torturing her with his attention to her body, she was left wanting more, what that was, she did not yet know.

AJ moved his hands up her body to caress her perfect breasts. He teased her nipples between her fingers, and moved down so he could lick and feats on the tender nubs.

Aella began panting with need, "Bite them AJ, I need more."

AJ grasped her nipples in his teeth, pulling them away from her body, simultaneously biting harder! An explosion ignited within her thighs! Aella gasped with intense need, drew her knees up, wrapping her legs around his waist in an attempt to fan the flames he had built within her.

AJ worked his way down her body leaving a trail of tender kisses, reaching her navel, he swirled his tongue around, bringing goose bumps up to the surface of her luminescent skin.

AJ feasted on the desire that was building inside Aella, he then softly approached the target of her desire. In that moment, AJ lived for one purpose, to give his lover the most exquisite, soul-stirring pleasure she had ever known.

Aella relaxed her legs spreading them as wide as possible, in the process opening herself to AJ's gaze. AJ could see the beads of moisture forming on her inner lips and was drawn to feast on them like bees to a flower.

He drew his tongue up the length of her opening, savouring a flavour that he would enjoy for evermore. He teased her lips sucking them gently into his mouth. Aella started to buck her hips in response. This spurred AJ on in his sexual endeavours.

As he reached the top of her opening he saw a little button peeking out from beneath its' hood. Being naive and a bit unsure of what to do AJ took a tentative gentle swipe with his tongue.

"Yessss' croaked Aella, "more.... please... more. Don't stop."

AJ kept up his ministrations and brought his hand up, and simultaneously ran a finger through her lips and around her opening.

"AJ, that... oh yes, oh, oh, keep going... oh yes.... suddenly Aella exploded and AJ felt a gush of liquid come out and bathe his face with her passion.

Aella reached down, grabbing his head with her hands and lifted him up to face her, and peppered him with kisses, licking her essence from his face.

"AJ, what was that? I've never experienced anything like that before; we're definitely doing that again!"

"Aella my love, your wish is my command."

"Can we snuggle now AJ, I am suddenly feeling wonderfully sated, in all my dreams, I never knew anything could feel so magnificent!"

AJ cradled Aella in his arms, and as he held her, he felt her relax her breath became slower as she drifted into slumber. AJ soon followed.

Out on the harbour, the large shepherd dog had settled across the gangway up to "Aellas Choice", no one would be passing without him knowing about it!
