The Whisper Of The Sea

Vol 55

The inhabitants of the village were no more than 300 people, the village was peaceful and deserted and the residents were closed, the village was also famous for horrible stories, and the, somehow the story in the village reached the ears of pirates, but there was never a ship that stopped on the island of Zaudetta.

Zeudetta Island, also called Zaudet village, is led by a village chief, Jhon Marshmille and his wife Megan Marshmille. Together with the residents, they built the village until now, each of them has a garden in each house, so that every villager will not lack food. Small markets also exist in the village, they use the Pound Sterling currency in buying and selling, sometimes there is barter in the market, if their conditions are mutually beneficial.

Leona walked with Edmund in a market that only existed on certain days, an impromptu market that sold the crops of the plantation residents and fish from fishermen.

That day Leona intended to buy bread, she stopped by the bakery with Edmund, although Leona's money was very mediocre, at least he had to buy bread because this man did not like the wheat bread he provided at home.

"Is this all you bought?" Edmund asked when he saw the two long breads he had bought. Leona snorted and reached out to him.

"Give me your money if you want more food, I don't have enough money to buy a lot of bread." Leona said with open arms outstretched to Edmund.

"You're kidding me. I don't bring any money, I'll be stranded on this island."

"Yes already, for today we only have this expensive bread for our lunch." Said Leona while paying for the bread she bought. The salesman looked at Edmund with a probing look.

"Who is Leona? You know what the rules are in our village? you can't bring outsiders to this village." The man looked at Edmund.

"Did you find it by the sea? if you find him you must hand him over to the village chief, let him and the villagers decide this man's life."

Edmund looked at the man while gritting his teeth, if only this man knew who he was, his tongue would soon be cut off for daring to say rudely to the royal family.

"Him? he was my future husband, even though he was from the opposite village and had trouble coming here, but he still came and visited me, it was quiet that we were getting married soon, she said, he's the son of a sheep farm owner from the Browns." Leona said smoothly, it was not visible in her eyes that everything she said was a lie.

The man narrowed his eyes looking at Leona. "How do you know a village man across from Leona, let alone know a man there." He suspects.

"I don't have to explain all my business to Sir Fatt, but you can tell anyone that I know Edmund since I used to fish on the beach, we met there and we had a love affair, he said, you can convey that." Leona said smoothly.

They came out of the bakery, and Edmund had been staring at him. "Woven love? prospective husband? Are you kidding me?" Edmund said as he crossed his arms, he noticed this girl who looked ordinary.

"I have to say, otherwise you will be taken to the village chief's house and will be treated at will by them, I heard that his fat wife was dissatisfied with her aging husband, if he saw you you could have been his easy target, let alone the villagers were unhappy with the newcomers, so I had to lie to the man, soon the gossip will spread with a peppered erotic touch, just look." Leona said with a smile.

Edmmund continued to watch her, her smiling face, the natural red hue on both of her cheeks, the caramel brown hair simply unraveled and was seen falling on his back with smooth and deep green eyeballs. Although this girl was beautiful, but the dissident tomboy girl was not the Edmund type in choosing a woman, her thoughts were still to Laura, the gentle and innocent woman, she wanted the gentle woman who always listened to her.

Edmund again glanced at the girl next to him, she was a tomboy girl who had thousands of plans in her head, she would not have complied to anyone, if not of her own free will, Edmund shook his head, although Leona was beautiful and attractive, she would naturally not like this girl, she was not the type of girl she dreamed of.

The woman ran around and entered the Caron family home, she smiled satisfied after getting fresh gossip from the market. "Where's your son, where is he, Helen." Said the woman while adjusting her breath which was claustrophobic from running around as soon as she finished listening to this gossip.

The fat lady who was wearing the apron came out into her living room with a frown. "Jastin's going to the other village up there on the hill, what's the Relief, you're getting gossip again from the market?" tanyakanya.

"Sit down I'll get you some water."

"Oh thank you Helen, but a cup of tea is fine too, I won't refuse it." He said he looked impatient to tell his fresh gossip.

"You won't believe what I say." He said while sipping his hot tea.

"You know that Leona was in a relationship with a man from the other side of the village? the man was stranded on the seafront and he then got in touch with the man, he said again, they often make love on the shipwreck."

The woman's eyes widened, looking angry with a disgusted face when she heard it. "And most importantly, the man is the son of a sheep farmer, they have a lot of sheep, too bad it's not, if the girl gets the man who owns the ranch." His word.

"Currently, it's none of my business what that rancid girl did, should the village chief take them and ask clearly the man's origin, what if the man was a pirate? our Zaudetta Island is not very large but consists of three villages, so it could be a pirate disguised as the son of a ranch owner in the opposite village."

"I don't like the girl's existence, especially when she sees the happy face she always shows us." Her speech. Madam Relief only raised her eyebrows seeing the hatred on the woman's face, even though she was a gossip monger but she didn't hate Leona, because sometimes Leona would occasionally help her if she was in trouble.

***

Edmund lay on Leona's bed, only one day he was here, she recalled that last night Leona told her to sleep on her bed while she herself slept on the matting, the atmosphere was completely quiet, the glowing oil lamp was dimly lit, last night Edmund could not sleep well, he had a sleep habit that was quite complicated compared to anyone, he still remembered how he ordered a woman to fill the nights, he likes rough play and it excites him, especially if he makes the woman scream asking him to stop.

But that was before, when he was still in his country, all his desires had to be fulfilled, his word became an obligation that they had to carry out, he said, because he was one of the royal family and the sole heir to the Alexander family.

no one dared to tell him that he was stupid, an idiot and the swearing that Leona often did to him.

"What do you want to do?" edmund asked to break the silence.

"Sandwich of vegetables." The answer.

"Can't you buy eggs? I want to eat eggs." Edmund. Leona extended her hand and asked for money.

"Give me your money and I'll go to the nearest market to buy it."

"Tch, that's all you do if I ask for something." Edmund said, he recalled the clothes he wore when he was stranded on this island, in his pocket there seemed to be a small bag of gold coins that he always carried everywhere.

Edmund wakes up from his sleep, he then looks for his clothes. He got it looking neat on the table, Edmund picked it up and checked his closed pouch. "Yes, there's still." Edmund said, then opened the bag of his pants and took the small bag. He opened it and took out one gold coin, he smiled, his eyes pointing towards Leona.

"Hey, what's here is the exchange of gold for money." Ask Edmund.

"Mm, it's in the market, so why, you have gold?"

"Just a few gold coins." Edmund. Leona's eyes were round, she left her cooking, and stood before Edmund with her eyes round.

"Don't forget to buy meat, fish and eggs if you've traded them, and don't get lost, and you should know a lot of sneaky people in the market, you know, he can fool new people in the village and....

Edmund looked at him while straddling. "I'm not a fool, Leona. I was stranded in this village but I know what I have to do." Edmund said before the girl.

"O-okay you're not stupid, you can go now, I can't keep you company, I'm busy." Leona said and cooking her food back, she glanced at the man who had come out of her house.

"Ugh, he's terrible when he's angry." Leona muttered.
