Chapter 10: ANOTHER SPECIAL WOMAN
Diwana came, saying his name again, and she was glad she said it underwater where not even the forest could easily hear her.
“Eron… I’m coming… ahhhh!”
Right after saying those lines, she broke through the waterline and took a long and sharp intake of breath while her juices spurted from her now reddened and swollen slit, quickly mixing with the pool’s pristine waters. Diwa then continued to pant and gasp, as she tried to calm herself down and at the same time normalize her breathing by taking in much-needed oxygen.
She knew that it would be a while before she finally could.
However, she wanted to bask a little longer in the sensations… Imagining that her recent “partner” was still pleasuring her with tender kisses and gentle caresses.
Something that she had not felt nor received from her former late husband…

With extreme effort, Eron tore his gaze away from Diwana and moved slowly away from the area, intensely hoping that she would not be able to know that he was there. The lumberyard rookie realized that it was the best thing for him to do, despite him having second thoughts of leaving her naked and alone while submerged in a natural pool deep in the forest.
Eron’s former occupation required that he practice stealth as a second nature, which is a skill he fully mastered back in his youth when he was still living at their packhouse. Even now, he pushed himself to stealthily creep back towards his camp, despite every iota in him screaming that he stayed. But of course, that wasn’t the only time he had walked away from something he didn’t want to leave behind.
But the feeling this moment was ten times stronger than on any other occasion that he had to do so in the past.
Even during the time that he had to leave his family…
And her…

Back then at home, years before…
“Eron, where have you been? Father’s been looking for you and we couldn’t find you anywhere.”
“Oh, I was busy bro and I still am with my… secret project. Will have to go now to finish it, ok?”
And before his older brother was able to speak, he had already swiftly sped away and had “disappeared” from view…
As it was, he had always been stealthy even before he left home simply because he just didn’t want to catch the attention of his immediate family’s male members, if he could help it. After all, his dad would just be demanding that he turn into the ideal second son overnight, while his only brother would be reminding him of that irritating smooth condescending tone and how he should try his best to please their father.
Eron’s reasoning: ”Sure, I’ll please him… The thing is, he can’t even accept me for who I truly am. How the hell can I begin to please him if that’s how he sees me, bro?”
And since the youngest male Camden was never the type to keep pushing his point of view if he knew the audience didn’t give a damn, he would rather just sneak around and make himself invisible most of the time. In the end, it worked for him and his family since he got to continually improve his stealth skills with actual everyday experience. Meanwhile, he gave his family members peace of mind…
Including his own!
Well, there was one member of the family who he didn’t have to worry about since she never required him to change. As a matter of fact, she accepted him for everything he was, even more than his blood relatives ever did! To be honest, he even thinks she’s more of a family to him than his own older sibling and male parent.
“Is your brother giving you a hard time again?” Helena then asked him with her signature sassy smile which she reserved for him on really bad days. And, sad to say, this was definitely one of them. “I can easily get him in line on your behalf. But I can’t do much about your father, though.”
He casually leaned against a tree that was located about a kilometer from their home. “I know, Twinny. I’m ok, don’t worry too much about it. Since my adolescent years, they’ve been like that so I’m not about to expect that they change their minds about me out of the blue a decade later. And it’s just because you insisted that they understand me. I know they respect you and all but I don’t think you should put that much effort into me. They obviously don’t.”
“Awww come on Twin, don’t think like that,” the dark brown-haired lady in front of him said as she gracefully placed a dainty hand on his arm to comfort him. “You know that I really don’t like you feeling sad. I know that sounds selfish but you truly don’t deserve this treatment, even from my mate.”
“I can’t blame them Twinny, since they did look forward to me being the next rising superstar, no thanks to me being so competitive due to my brother being the same way,” Eron responded with a sad smile. “I guess I really am a disappointment to everyone, that’s all.”
“Twin brother, noooo, you’re not. I’m not disappointed with you,” Elena assured him while suddenly hugging the man who was the same as her, real tight. “You are my twin star brother, even if we were born from different wombs. And that’s coming from the moon goddess herself. Also, not only did she say so but even the higher line of the Faye has affirmed it. I’m actually proud to call you my twin.”
He hugged her back, appreciative of her sisterly encouragement. “Thanks, twin sister. At least there’s one member in my father’s troop who thinks I’m worth some time and attention. But if you’re gonna be the only one who will believe in me, I don’t see why I should stay here trying to prove my worth to everyone else.”
“Eron please, you shouldn’t leave us. After all, where would my twin brother go?”
“Well, if it ever comes to that Twinny, I will still find a way to talk to you,” Eron answered with a reassuring smile as he looked down at her frowning face. “You’re the one person in our clan who I will not cut ties with. You don’t deserve that and I really do want to stay as your twin brother. Not even my going away will stop me from being that to you.”
+++
And that is still the case to this day, despite him being away from his father, brother, and their clan members. They still talk, him and his sister-in-law, even to this day.
Eron trusted her enough to not tell his big brother too much about their kinship’s prodigal son. And now, he had more reasons to talk to her as he hurried away from the pool, stealthy as a shadow.
Eron needed someone to talk about a certain beautiful widow and his mysterious and puzzling reactions to her…
And when he finally reached the camp, he knew that this was the perfect time to do so. The logger brought out his expensive high-tech phone and used his fingerprint to unlock it. Her name was third on his mobile’s recent call list, so he was dialing her number within seconds of sitting down in front of his campsite’s fire.
“Twin! I’m so glad you called. I’ve got a ton of things to tell you!”
“Hello, Twinny. So do I. Well, not really a ton… Just one, really but it feels like a ton.”
“Whoa… you’ve got my curiosity piqued, twin brother! Tell me about your ‘thing’ first.”
“Thanks, Twinny, but it’s not really a 'thing'… She’s a 'her'…”
A short pause then a delighted giggle sounded over Eron’s receiver…
“Ohhhh, do tell, twin. I'm all ears.”
