“Well, let’s go,” I say, standing up and more than ready to get going and hopefully get some answers.

“Jynx,” Mal gains my attention, stopping my progress toward the backdoor as I turn back around to look at them all, “it’s dark, and from the looks of it, raining. As much as I want to go out now to try and find the coordinates, there really isn’t much point until the morning.”

“Well shit, I was so excited I hadn’t even noticed,” I reply with a slight wince.

“We figured that,” Mason smiles and then stands up, “let’s make something quick for dinner, and then we can watch a film.”

“Good idea, and since we’ll be going in the morning, we can go a bit more prepared than we did earlier. We could need shovels and all sorts, we’re assuming that it’s a building or something, but it could just as easily be something buried.” Ace suggests, an unmistakable excited gleam in his eye.

“Do you think it might be worth asking Gerald to see if he knows what is out there?” Rip asks us.

I shake my head, “If we did, I doubt that he would answer, he didn’t tell us anything when we asked him about the office, and he’s already told us more than once that there are certain things that he can’t tell us. We’re better off just going to see what’s there and then questioning him about it later.”

“Yeah, I agree he’s more likely to tell us about what we find if we’ve already discovered it, like with the safe,” Mal agrees with me.

“Alright, let’s eat then. I want to get an early night. The sooner we can get out there, the better.” I reply, resuming my walk to the kitchen so that I can find something for us for dinner.

**********

Despite my impatient need to find the coordinates, we ended up having a really chilled-out and fun evening. Mal insisted that we watch National Treasure because it’s about treasure hunting, and we’re kind of on a treasure hunt. I pointed out that having found out how mysterious my grandmother is, it could very well be treasure that we find, and that just made him even more excited.

Predictably I got hardly any sleep last night, too busy thinking about what could be at the coordinates on the laptop. It has to be something important because it was literally the only thing on the laptop, and it was heavily protected, so much so that even Ace couldn’t get into it and from the reactions of the guys, that’s a rare occurrence. Due to my complete lack of sleep, I’m up as soon as the sun rises and dressed in clothing appropriate for stomping through the woods. I’m not very good at map reading and shit like that, so I have no idea how far into the woods the coordinates are, and I’m preparing for every eventually.

“I assume we’re getting up, and I can’t entice you to come back to bed?” Rome asks, and I glance over at him, pushed up on his arms, his gloriously naked chest and abs on full display.

I’m about to reply no, but the longer I stare, the more my clit pulses, and instead, I start stripping out of the clothes that I just finished putting on. Rome’s eyes widen slightly, clearly not having thought that I’d take him up on his offer before the surprise quickly turns to heat.

“I’ve got time for a quick one,” I smirk as I reach him and pull back the covers, only to find him already completely naked. I’m reasonably sure that he went to bed with underwear on, so fuck knows when he took them off, but I’m definitely not complaining. Letting my underwear drop to the floor, I swing my leg over him so I’m straddling him, but I keep myself lifted as I put my hands on either side of his head and lean forward to kiss him thoroughly. His hands gently run down my back and grab my ass, as I lower my hips and grind against his dick, making us groan in pleasure at the sensations that it causes.

I lift my hips just slightly so that he can line his dick up at my entrance, and then I slowly lower myself, torturing us both with my slow pace, Rome nips my lip in retaliation, the surprise of it causing me to rock my hips and gasp as he hits just the right spot thanks to the angle. I don’t want to go slow anymore, and I rock my hips as he meets me, thrust for thrust. I pull my mouth away from his, my breaths coming in fast pants as I put my hands on his chest, and one of his hands palms my boob, expertly rolling my nipple between his fingers as he stares at me with such heat it has my pussy clenching around his dick.

I move faster, the angle hitting just right, until I sit up completely, my hands going behind me and keeping me up on his thighs. His hands smooth down my sides and then grip my hips as he lifts me slightly so that he can increase the pace; it’s not long until my orgasm tears through me, launching me straight off the edge and into a climax so strong I swear I almost black out. Rome groans as his own release finds him and somehow prolongs my climax until we both collapse into a sweaty and breathless heap; he kisses my forehead, and I smile with happiness.

After a few minutes, my energy returns in a burst, and I suddenly pop up next to him and smile down at him excitedly, “Let’s go on an adventure.”

He chuckles, sweeps the hair off my face, and pulls my lips down to meet his before he replies, “Absolutely, Koroleva. Let’s wake up the guys and go and see what else your grandmother has been hiding. Hopefully, we’ll be able to get at least some of your questions answered.”

As I get up off the bed, giving him one final kiss, I reply, “Yeah, I hope so. I’m going to have a quick shower since I’ve now gotten all hot and sweaty.”

“Do you want some company?” He asks, already getting up and anticipating my answer.

“Of course,” I reply, “I never turn down company in my showers.”

After we’ve both showered and gotten dressed, I decide that if I’m going to wake the others up this early to go exploring, I should probably do it with coffee and bacon. Rome wholeheartedly agrees that this is probably the best course of action, even though I think he just really wants coffee and bacon himself. With this in mind, we bypass the guy's rooms completely and instead make our way down the stairs and to the kitchen.

“I think the guys might be just as excited as you are and are already up,” Rome mutters as we can hear the guy's distinctive voices from just outside of the kitchen.

“Good morning, you two,” Rip greets us with a smile as he comes over to hand us both coffees and then kisses me thoroughly, almost making me drop it.

“There’s bacon and eggs on the table,” Ace announces from by the stove and then adds, “It’s nothing fancy, but it will taste good, and it’s quick, which means we can get out there even quicker.”

I chuckle as I start to load my plate, surprisingly hungry, considering it's so early, and I usually don’t bother eating until lunch. Once I’ve finished around half my coffee, I’m finally awake enough to realise that there are bags and spades stacked up against the backdoor.

“You guys have been ready to go for a while then?” I question as I nod toward the stuff.

Mal grins, “We can’t all take credit for that. It was done by Ace; apparently, he couldn’t sleep, so he’s been up since goodness knows when packing stuff so that when the rest of us were finally awake, we could leave quicker.”

I chuckle and then look at a smiling Ace, “Good thinking; I was contemplating coming down to do the same, but I got a bit distracted.”
