I gawk at him, I just can’t do anything else. His expression is comically exaggerated and his words make it even worse. I think he was going for sultry and sexy, but he completely missed the mark. It’s such a Hex thing to do, and it’s unfairly adorable.

His nose gets a peck from me. “You don’t have to. I’ll take care of it myself.”

He frowns, mouth pouting. “But I want to? Please?”

Of course he does. And the puppy eyes really shake my resolve. But if I agree, we’ll be stuck in the bedroom the whole morning and I just can’t afford that. We’ve already overslept—it’s nine and we were meant to be up before eight—but I just couldn’t bring myself to get up when he was sleeping next to me so peacefully.

“Okay.”

The words come out of my mouth without my input. I’ve no idea why I said this when I could’ve just turned him down, but I guess the image of him on his knees between my legs didn’t help my case either.

Hex’s radiant smile fills me with joy and anticipation. “I’ll suck your dick soo well you won’t ever want to get up from bed without a blowjob.”

Said dick twitches in excitement. Heavens help me. At this rate I will be addicted to Hex before the cruise even wraps up.

Spreading my legs as he slips out of bed, I get comfortable. He’s sitting on the floor a moment later, his eyes locked on my erection like he’s looking at Tokyo Sky Tree from up close. It’s humbling and it stirs anticipation in my stomach, so to encourage him, I give myself a squeeze and slide my hand up my shaft.

“Are you going to do something or just look?”

He grins, bringing his lips closer. “Sorry. I was just taking a moment to appreciate it.”

I’ve got a teasing remark at the tip of my tongue, but don’t get to say it as he unceremoniously takes me into his mouth. It pulls a startled groan out of me, the sudden wet heat startling my brain.

The first few licks are tentative, as if he’s testing the waters. But before long eagerness wins, guiding his bobbing head as he greedily sucks me as deep in his throat as he can. It’s not that far, and he’s a little clumsy altogether, but it’s still the best blowjob I’ve ever had. It’s embarrassing how quickly it pushes me to my climax, which Hex tries and fails to swallow with a funny face.

“Maybe next time,” I kiss his head and wipe a stray drop of cum from his chin.

He beams up at me. “Promise?”

I kiss him on the lips. “I promise. Now let’s get ready.”

A shower, some frolicking and a cup of coffee later, Hex, Mong and I are sitting around the dining table. Monitors take up most of the free space, with Hex’s laptop and tablet feeding the data we see on them.

“So, both of them disappeared?” Leo says from the other end of the video call.

Since our efforts weren’t bringing results, other than Hex slowly progressing with the secondary network, we called home to report. Who knows, maybe we are missing something obvious that they might be able to notice. Leo took on my role as the Akiyama Group heir’s bodyguard when he came over from the US some time ago. Because of some unfortunate circumstances, he used to work for the Razor Crew, the gang that the US government has been dealing with in its attempt to profit from a new drug. We think it’s based on the one from Matthew’s SD card, but it’s inferior, which is why the entire American government is currently looking for him and Kieran.

“Yes, but we don’t know yet if it’s linked,” I reason.

“Has no one on the cruise said anything?” Kwanchai joins in, snatching Leo’s cigarette and taking a drag from it. From the get-go, I knew our heir stood no chance against Leo, but I’m glad it all turned out fine and they are both so happy together. “Surely, a member of staff and a PA missing would inconvenience someone.”

“We’ve been keeping an eye out for any mentions of the two women. Nothing has been reported.”

“And that Lynx woman? Claire Streiss? You haven’t spoken to her either?”

Hex shakes his head. “Nope. I’ve not heard from her since the party.”

Matthew’s head pops into the camera’s view. “Isn’t that strange? I thought she was obsessed with you?” he asks and gives me alook.

I pretend not to notice it. I know he and Leo have been conspiring with Hex about me, but ignoring their games is usually easier and less irritating than playing them. That said, part of me does wonder what kinds of idiotic things they might’ve convinced Hex to try out, because, quite frankly, he already excels at that on his own.

We chat for a while longer, sharing the rest of the intel we’ve gathered. Everyone seems okay with the fact that we now have a third person helping us with this infiltration mission, but then again, I did have Mong thoroughly checked already. If I think someone is trustworthy, then Kwanchai tends to accept that.

By the time we wrap things up, it’s nearing time for Mong’s shift to start, which means I need to send him out alongside Hex to attend the security briefing. The likelier place for a breakthrough is a VIP area after all, and not the control room, so it’s better for me to continue posing as him. I don’t love the idea of leaving him alone with my little troublemaker, but he’s not overstepped again since the talk we had, so I am convinced he means it when he says he just wants to be Hex’s friend.

“Don’t forget to put this on,” Hex tells me, handing me a tiny camera that can be attached to a button or zipper.

I’ve been carrying one every night I’ve worked at the VIP zone, and so far, it has helped us map out some of the restricted areas. We still have a lot missing, because I am not allowed to go beyond the dining hall, but it’s a start.
