Athena was feeling more than a little tipsy. The ocean winds howled with a ferocity that only grew stronger as night descended.
The night sea was a terrifying place. But oddly, she wasn't scared at all. With a laugh, she leapt right in.
Was it just her imagination, or did she hear a voice calling out? She couldn't quite place it.
"Athena!"
"Athena!"
"Are you out of your mind?"
Athena was suddenly yanked up by a strong hand. Gasping, she spat out a mouthful of salty water and found herself face-to-face with Tyler, who looked absolutely frantic.
What was he doing here?
Tyler grabbed a ladder hanging off the ship and pulled her up with a firm grip.
Athena, fueled by a mix of adrenaline and defiance, shoved him away. "Let go of me!"
His chest ached from the effort, but he plunged back into the sea to save her again. "Stop this madness!"
The waves were treacherous; it wouldn't take much for both of them to be dragged under.
Back on deck, Athena was trembling—partly from the cold, partly from the thrill, and partly from hunger. The plunge into the sea had driven home the truth: Marlon was truly gone.
Tyler fetched a clean towel from the ship's cabin and draped it over her head. "You cold?"
"What are you doing here?"

The readers' comments on the novel: Dear Ex-wife Marry Me novel (Maja)
Author, would you story about Ryan settling down and another story on Eric regaining his body and memories back from Patrick, and Eric also settling down as I find it so disheartening for him to have gone through what he went through at the research institute, and I'll like for him to get his "golden boy" life back though, not at the detriment of Ian....
When will the author update to finish Beck's story? What about Dylan and Tyler's love lives? Also, I'll like the author to write on Wilma and Elvis ending up together as she was quite persistent in pursuing him. And Shawn's story, Cornelia Sullivan and Omar Casson. Also, a little write-up on Jeff (Ian's assistant) love life, too. Thanks, author for updating....
