CHAPTER 13

The ship swept through the seaweed early the next morning. We were almost at the Italian port.

A shiver of excitement coursed through me as I breathed in the foreign air. After being out at sea for so long, I had begun to forget how land smells, and it was welcoming to say the least. The breeze was warm in my face as we travelled closer still to the port and the water was so clear it was like looking through a beautiful turquoise crystal down at the sea bed.

Several small fishing boats were dotted around the harbour, everyone turning to watch as our ship dwarfed every other vessel and cast looming shadows over the area.

I heard Kelly give orders to his men to drop the anchors and before long, the ship had halted about half a mile away from the shore and the men began to lower several tiny rowing boats into the water.

"Excited?" a familiar voice asked from behind me as I leaned over the guardrail of the deck.

I turned and grinned at Leonardo. "I can't wait to see more of your country," I said.

"Wait until you see the Vatican museums and Michelangelo's ceiling. You'll never want to see a dick again after looking at that once."

"I'm sure I will," I flirted.

Leonardo smiled mischievously. "Whether you want to or not, you can't get rid of this bad boy that easily."

My eyes glanced down to where his hand readjusted a rather prominent bulge in his trousers and I wondered how the hell this man got aroused so easily, and if he ever didn't have a boner.

Heavy bootsteps banged against the deck behind, interrupting us, and I turned around to see Captain Kelly.

"I guess this is it then," he said softly, and I knew he was directing his words at me, but his eyes were fixed cruelly on Leonardo.

"I guess so," I responded. "It has been a pleasure knowing you, Captain."

Leonardo stepped closer to me protectively, and a sense of relaxation came over me. I felt that he would lay down his life for me if need be, but at the same time, that thought also rested quite unsettlingly in the back of my head.

Kelly sighed at Leonardo's gesture. "Whatever it is you search for in this land, Miss Sullivan, I wish you the best of luck in finding it. It's been a pleasure knowing you."

Despite Leonardo's protective stance beside me, Kelly reached for my hand and gently brought it to his lips, leaving a longing and soulful kiss above my knuckles. His eyes remained closed, but without looking or speaking to one another, we both knew that this would be the last time we would ever see each other, and although I didn't feel the same way towards him as he did me, a tear sprung to my eyes as the realization hit me.

He placed my hand back at my side as gently as he had taken it, and turned around, leading Leonardo and I to the other side of the ship where a small rowing boat had been lowered into the water for us.
