Surviving the Apocalypse with my Multiplier System novel Chapter 188

Noah walked into the RV to witness Ella’s excitement.

He walked over quietly and hugged her from behind. His sudden actions startled Ella so much the she nearly dropped all of the potatoes in her hands.

"Noah! You scared me to death!", she cried out.

"Shh, keep your voice down unless you want to be discovered", he said in a low voice, kissing her neck.

When Julian went assigning rooms earlier, he had wanted to ask Ella to share a room with him, but when Reginald told Ella to stay with them, he knew it would be too soon.

Ella felt her body heat up from his kisses. The thought of being discovered was as thrilling as it was frightening for her.

She knew her father would kill her and Noah if he found them messing around, but she couldn’t stop--Noah’s touch just felt so good.

Noah kissed her while his hands explored her body until they heard Ella’s mother calling out to her from outside of the RV.

"Ella! Are you inside? Did you get lost?" her mother asked, approaching the entrance to the RV.

Noah quickly stepped away from Ella and adjusted himself, while Ella did the same.

"Oh, Noah! You’re here too!" smiled Ella’s mother. She hadn’t expected to see him here with her daughter.

Ella blushed. "Oh, hi, Mom. Noah was helping me with the potatoes. I thought these would be delicious roasted in the stove." Her voice cracked slightly, making her blush even more.

"Thank you, Noah, for helping my silly daughter. I hope she hasn’t been too much of a burden to you," she smiled, walking over to help carry the potatoes.

"Not at all, Mrs. Soto. I’m glad to help," replied Noah, very respectfully. While his face remained neutral, his heart was beating violently inside.

After picking out a few more items, Mrs. Soto turned to leave with Ella. On her way out, Ella turned to flash Noah a charming smile, igniting a desire within him.

Noah stood inside the RV, watching them leave. He had come so close to being discovered, and they had only just arrived here.

His mind began to spin as he thought of other ways he could meet with Ella. At this point, outside of his responsibilities, it was Ella who occupied his thoughts the most.

The following day, Katrina came over to find Cal at the underground base.

"Are you ready? We should go check to see if anything came from the bait we set out," she said with a smile.

Today, they planned to make it to the government base to see if the Barclays had managed to pull up any clues about Julian’s whereabouts.

Cal nodded. "Yes, I’m ready. Are you sure I need to bring so many supplies? It seems excessive for such a short trip."

Katrina told him to pack at least a full duffel bag of supplies, including canned food. Now his duffel bag was very heavy and difficult to carry around.

"Haha! Yes, I’m very sure. By the time you actually make it inside the base, half your bag will be empty," she laughed.
