Chapter 2325 Cave
He was hyper aware of her chest resting on his arm. Jasper carefully turned to his side to sleep. Willow had her head resting against his arm, and she was sleeping like a child. Jasper could still see her clearly, and a smile curled his lips. It was his first time seeing a girl sleeping so soundly. He was almost envious of her sleep quality.
Silence slowly took over as the team members fell asleep as well. Jasper quietly tucked Willow in and made sure the blanket clung to her and kept her warm. After that, he came out of the tent. The bodyguards were also patrolling as well, and they gave him a look of approval.
They too used to be in the military, so they knew Jasper was a reliable man, and a powerful one at that too.
"I'll check the perimeter," Jasper muttered.
A bodyguard handed him a coat. "Take this."
Jasper took it, draped the coat over himself, and went patrolling. Now, the bodyguards could finally rest.
Willow slept soundly, the blanket keeping Jasper's warmth alive for her. When she woke up, the sun was already shining brightly, so brightly that she opened her eyes. She then looked around and noticed the lack of a certain man called Jasper. Willow touched her lips. Wonder if I drooled.
She came out and saw Jasper by the beach. Johanna came up to Willow with some water to wash her face and a bit of warm water for her to drink. "Had a good night's sleep?" Johanna asked.
"That I did." Willow smiled. Her skin glistened under the sun, her eyes brimming with life. Obviously, she had a good night's sleep.
Everyone had their breakfast, and it was only seven in the morning. Winston made some arrangements, and the team started exploring the island to see if they could find anything pertaining to the ancient ship. Archeology was a delicate art. They could rely on modern equipment for their expeditions, but they still needed human touch for their work.
Jasper and Willow were a team, and everyone else had bodyguards with them while they searched the mountains.
Johanna was taking care of Willow as best as she could. At this point, she was more like a nanny. The bodyguard made sure Willow was fed and not thirsty. Whenever she sweated, Johanna would wipe it away. She also made sure the sun wasn't burning Willow.
Jasper saw everything. Boy, her family really takes care of her. They might support her endeavor, but they're taking all the steps necessary to keep her safe.
Everyone climbed up a hill. Should Willow falter, Jasper would hold her hand or just pick her up and go through the hurdle. Thanks to him, Willow reached the top of the hill easily.
"Oh, there's a cave. Let's check it out," said Winston as he happily went ahead.
Willow followed as well. Archeology done in this manner would mean a considerable time and energy investment, but if they could find an artifact, it would well be worth it.
Winston stopped in front of the cave. He noticed a big freshwater pond lying underneath the cave, and there were a lot of little caverns around it. "The pond is about sixteen feet deep, but the boulders around the pond seem ancient. This is a rare find. If someone had found it before us, they would have left some evidence."
"Let's check it out."
"Gather the team members. We need to investigate the place first."
The team members came over with their gear and rappelled down the cave. When it was Willow's turn, Jasper held the rope with one hand and extended his other hand to her. "I'll take you."
Willow nodded. While Jasper was wrapping his arm around her waist, she clasped her legs around his waist and clung onto him like an octopus. The ladies were envious.
Jasper took her down into the cave. Some members were already investigating the place, so she joined them.
