We had no choice but to wait. The Komodo dragon looked like it had settled in for the long haul too, since it remained at the bottom of the tree, arching its squat neck to look up at us. Its long tongue flicked in and out, as if tasting the air – or tasting our fear and sweat – and I shuddered.

"Why did you come here?" I asked Felicia, trying to distract myself from the ravenous beast right below.

"I needed to do something," she replied, before her eyes narrowed. "And wh

    "Let's wait for the other two," Euphie suggested once she was firmly on solid ground, joining me at the mouth of the cave."I don't think they can make their way up," I replied, frowning. I took a step closer to the edge, intent on telling Elsa and Yvonne not to try climbing up. However, as I peered over the edge, I saw that Yvonne had already grabbed the rope, and was looking up at us. She gave us a wave, and I waved back, trying to smile."Don't tell them not to," Euphie hissed, tugging on my hand. I took a step back, confused. "I think they need to prove themselves to you. Just let them try, okay?""But what's the point?" I argued, beginning to feel annoyed. "We only have an hour or two of daylight left. We can't possibly wait for the two of them to wrestle themselves up the rope and use up all the time we have!""Didn't you hear me? I said that the two of them need to prove themselves to you," Euphie argued back, her face heating up. She put her hands on her

    "The monkey?" Euphie blurted. Elsa had an incredulous look on her face, too. Both of them turned to stare at Yvonne after hearing what I had said. Even Yvonne looked stunned, trying to tilt her head upward to look at the little creature seated on her shoulders without unseating it. Eerily enough, the monkey realized that it was the center of attention! It stopped grooming Yvonne's hair, looking up from the top of her head, and stared at each of us in turn."How is the monkey going to help?" Elsa asked, turning her attention back to me. The rest of the girls looked at me too, disbelief written all over their faces."I think it can get up to the cave. There's some vegetation it can use to scale the cliff face, and I think there's a greater possibility of it managing to get up to the cave and down again without breaking its neck, unlike if one of us tried," I explained."I think that's impossible," Elsa retorted, shaking her head immediately. "It's an animal, after all.

    Why is the monkey being so friendly with Yvonne? I wondered, unsure of whether it was just another trap we had not triggered yet. Wild animals usually don't behave this way. Every single thing we've seen on this island has behaved just like wild animals do—they ran or hid from us, or attacked us if they were bigger. This particular monkey behaves as though it were her pet!"It's really cute," Euphie commented, coming up to Yvonne. The monkey perched on her shoulder, turning its little face to gaze warily at Euphie, although it did not move. Euphie reached out tentatively, telegraphing her movements clearly. She brought her hand up to the monkey, letting it sniff her fingers for a moment before it dipped its head, allowing her to scratch the crown of its head gently. Only Elsa and I held back, cautious about the way the creature had appeared out of nowhere and adopted us. Or had we adopted it? Who knows."Are you my new friend? You can be my new friend," Yvonne cooed,

    "I'm so full," I groaned. I had eaten about four or five of the green fruit we had found in a bid to maximize its effects, but it seemed to be having the opposite effect. "Is anyone else feeling the same way?"I was feeling terribly bloated, as though the fruit had grown in size after being ingested. The first fruit had gone down wonderfully easily, and seconds after I had swallowed the last bite, I had felt a sudden rush of energy throughout my body. It felt as though I had just had a restful night of sleep! Instead of counting my blessings and stopping right there, I had eaten another. That had resulted in me feeling energetic and ready to go another ten kilometers, as though I had just downed a can of Red Bull. Of course, that had led to me scarfing down another, and another…Elsa and Euphie rolled their eyes in unison. "No one asked you to eat your weight in fruit," Elsa retorted, sharing a look with Euphie. The two of them seemed to agree that it was my own foo

    Elsa had a dazed, vacant expression on her face. It was as though I had fucked the brains out of her, although part of the credit for that had to go to Yvonne, too. Her behaviour had really surprised me today. She had been charmingly shy in the beginning, but much like Elsa, she had opened up and had become much more daring. Not just in bed—the two of them no longer looked to me for each and every decision like they had done in those first few days after the plane crash. Perhaps this was what they usually were like. It certainly was the case for Elsa, at least. She was back to being her bossy self. I grinned, remembering how she had demanded that I get to it and fuck her already.Speaking of her bossy self… I looked down to find that she was still kissing Yvonne. That was a surprise, too. Since when had either of them liked girls? Still, that could have been heteronormative thinking at work. Thinking of everyone as straight was the default. I reached down instincti

    "Admiring yourself, are you?" Elsa purred, wrapping herself around me from behind. She hooked her chin on my shoulder, her hands coming around to fondle my chest and my stomach. I fought to control myself, trying not to moan. It had been a while since she and I had had sex, and I was wondering what had spurred her on. Perhaps being away from the duplicitous nest of snakes—Nicholas, Dave and Claire—was what had finally let her relax enough to approach me once more."You must see something you like if you think I'm to be admired at all," I replied cheekily, turning my head to grin at her. Our heads were so close that I could just lean a fraction of an inch to the right and kiss her, if I so desired. Of course it was something I wanted—I was just unsure of my welcome. Even though Elsa and I had had sex, we had not kissed before.Elsa's hands roved further downwards, and her fingers caressed my nipples. I shuddered under her touch, leaning backwards a smidgen
