Lustful Paradise

When Ethan mustered the courage to raise his head again and look into her eyes, expecting her to be angry or annoyed with him for having told her such things, Madison surprised him instead by smiling at him.

"Wow, Ethan... I was expecting a simple comment like 'You look good today,' but you said much more than that." She said while shaking her head in amusement before continuing. "So, I'm hot and sexy, huh? And not just that. You love me because of that, including my personality. That was so unexpected!"

Ethan could feel the heat emanating from his face upon hearing Madison repeat everything that he had said to her moments ago. "Yes... I meant every single word of it," he replied while trying his best not to stutter. "I love you, Madison. I've been wanting to tell you how I felt for months now, but I could never bring myself to confess it to you. So... um, well... Yeah..."

As he spoke those last few words, Madison's expression turned serious, prompting him to pause mid-sentence and remain silent once again. He didn't dare to speak another word, fearing he might say something that would worsen his situation even further. All he could do at that point was wait for her reply.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Madison let out a soft sigh as she placed one hand on her hip, thinking about the best way to address Ethan's confession. "Look, Ethan. I appreciate the fact that you love me and admire my body and personality, but I don't feel the same way. And don't take it in a bad way. You're a great guy. You really are, and I'm sure there are many girls who would be happy to have someone like you by their side, but... Well... Sorry, you aren't what I'm looking for in a man."

Hearing Madison say those things made Ethan feel as if a sharp knife pierced his heart. He wanted to cry right there and then but held his tears in because he didn't want to appear pathetic in front of her after getting rejected.

"O-okay..." He murmured in a low voice. "Thanks for telling me your feelings about this matter... It will help me move on from here. And I am sorry for confessing out of nowhere." With that, Ethan turned away from Madison and slowly started walking toward the lower deck, wanting to lock himself up in his cabin where no one could see him suffering.

"Hey, don't get depressed about this!" Madison grabbed him by his arm, preventing him from leaving. "Look at me! I know it's hard to deal with rejections, but come on, we're on a trip together, so we shouldn't waste it being sad or depressed over things that can't be controlled, right? I mean... Look around! We're in the middle of the ocean, having a nice trip and enjoying ourselves on this yacht. You shouldn't let yourself feel bad because of me, okay? Instead of being sad, try enjoying life while you can!"

"Don't worry about me," Ethan said while shaking his head. "I won't spoil the mood for everyone else on the yacht just because I'm upset about being rejected. But I'd prefer to be alone for a bit. I need some time to calm down and clear my thoughts."

Madison sighed seeing Ethan act stubborn about the issue and let go of his arm. "Fine. Do as you wish. I'll see you later then."

With that, she turned her gaze toward the ocean, feeling somewhat responsible for his depressed state, and decided to leave him be for now. 'Maybe it would be better to ask Nathan or James to check up on him and try cheering him up.'

Meanwhile, Lucifer and Layla entered the bathroom to clean themselves up. However, when Eva heard someone opening the door, she panicked and tried to lock it before they could come in, but unfortunately for her, Layla's quick reflexes allowed her to push it back and walk into the bathroom.

"Hey, Eva, what's the problem? Why were you trying to close the door?" Layla asked, confused at Eva's strange reaction. "Is this how you treat your cousins?"

"What the fuck, Layla? You are asking me this after what you've done?!" Eva exclaimed while looking at both Lucifer and Layla. She then proceeded to cover up her panties from view with the skirt of her dress. "How am I supposed to be okay with my cousin having oral sex with his own sister in front of me... IN FRONT OF ME?! And now you expect me to not be affected by what happened earlier?! Seriously? How fucked up are you two?!"

Lucifer chuckled lightly at her reaction before he replied with an amused tone of voice, "Come on, don't be so prudish about it. You had fun watching us, didn't you? Otherwise, you wouldn't have been masturbating to our little session just now. Not to mention you know about me and Aunt Sasha, so why bother acting so surprised now, huh?"

"Ugh! Don't bring Mom into this! I still haven't accepted the fact that she is dating you. And now I find out you are also screwing your sisters. What's wrong with you? Aren't there plenty of other women out there for you to choose from?" Eva said, clearly agitated by Lucifer's nonchalant attitude toward such relationships.

Instead of giving her an immediate answer to that question, Lucifer walked behind Layla and hugged her from behind, making his hands grope both of her large boobs and squeeze them firmly through the thin fabric of her blouse.

Layla let out a pleased moan in response to her brother's sudden fondling. "Oh, Lucifer!"

Then Lucifer lowered his face down next to Layla's ear, and while looking directly into Eva's eyes, whispered seductively to her. "Do you think I will let any other man lay their filthy hands on this sexy body? No way. She belongs to me and no one else. Her body, her heart, everything is mine alone to enjoy and cherish."
