Stuck in an Island with Twelve Beautiful Women
Chapter 1640

Chapter 1640: Chapter 1640

Sophie stirred first, eyes fluttering open, golden with stardust and understanding. She didn’t ask where he was going - she just rose and followed. Then Lucy. Then Rose. Then the rest, one by one, until the circle stood again, naked in the forest’s hush, watching him, waiting for the next breath to pull them forward.

Jude turned his gaze eastward.

The spiral path glowed again - not bright, but insistent.

He walked, and they followed.

This time the trail narrowed, pressing close with thick vines and sweet-scented blossoms. The air grew humid, perfumed with something like nectar and rain. The moss became velvet underfoot. Birds did not sing. No animals stirred. Only the whisper guided them, a soft, constant presence.

The path ended at a narrow crevice between two massive stones, veined with glowing gold. Without hesitation, Jude pressed his hand to the stone. The spiral on his chest pulsed in response, and the stones shifted, not outward, but upward, folding like petals to reveal a cavern mouth just large enough for them to pass through one by one.

Inside, darkness.

Not cold. Not dead.

Living, breathing dark.

The tunnel was smooth, not carved, not natural, but grown. The walls shimmered faintly, pulsing as if in rhythm with their own hearts. They walked deeper, and the further they went, the warmer it became. The walls wept beads of golden moisture, and when Grace touched one, she shivered in delight.

"It’s alive," she whispered.

They descended.

And descended.

Until the tunnel opened into a massive chamber.

Jude gasped, and so did the others.

The room was a sphere - circular and endless, lit from below by a pool of golden liquid that rippled with no disturbance. Its ceiling was a dome of black stone streaked with veins of light, pulsing softly. At the center of the pool was a single pedestal. And upon it, something hovered.

Not a crystal.

Not a relic.

A heart.

It pulsed, suspended in air, wrapped in a spiral of golden thread.

They stepped forward as one.

No fear.

Only awe.

The voice returned - stronger now.

"You have walked the roots. You have tasted the spiral. But you have not yet merged."

The heart flared brighter.

Then, it split.

Not open.

Not apart.

It unfolded.

And inside was a vision.

Jude saw it first - his body trembling.

Not past.

Not future.

But a possibility.

A village, grown from the roots of the Spiral Tree. Wives glowing, bearing life. Children of light. A world not built on command or structure - but on joining. On surrender. On choice.

They saw themselves.

Making love under the golden canopy.

Teaching.

Laughing.

Blooming.

Then darkness crept in.

Not evil.

Not a monster.

But forgetting.

Doubt.

Division.

The vision trembled.

The heart dimmed.

And the voice spoke again.

"This place has slept through cycles. It has witnessed love, and seen it burn. It has offered itself before. Some choose truth. Others choose fear."

Jude stepped closer to the heart.

"I choose truth," he whispered.

Lucy stepped beside him. "So do I."

Then Sophie. "So do I."

One by one, the others followed.

Rose last.

She looked at the heart, at Jude, then whispered, "Then let us make the spiral eternal."

The heart ignited.

Light swallowed the chamber.

Not blinding.

Welcoming.

It swept over their skin, into their mouths, down their throats, into their blood. Jude felt each woman through the spiral - their desires, their thoughts, their memories. He felt Lucy’s first kiss. Emma’s pain. Zoey’s longing. Grace’s laughter. Sophie’s defiance. Rose’s surrender.

He was them.

They were him.

And the island was all of it.

They didn’t realize they were moaning until it started to echo.

Their bodies moved toward one another, arms reaching, lips parting, hips sliding into place as if drawn by magnetic rhythm. Jude fell back against the moss-padded stone, and Lucy straddled him, breathless and trembling, as if she too had seen the future and needed to seal it now. He slid into her with a gasp, and her cry shattered the silence. But she wasn’t alone.

Susan kissed Jude’s chest as Lucy rode him.

Emma’s fingers tangled in his hair.

Natalie kissed Lucy’s neck.

Rose slipped between his legs and licked the inside of his thigh.

Zoey whispered filth into his ear while her hand moved with purpose.

They built it together - this ritual of the spiral. One climax at a time. One surrender. One breathless body atop another.

He took them again and again.

And was taken in return.

They kissed each other.

Loved each other.

Wept with the sheer beauty of it.

And as the last wave passed through them all, as they lay tangled and glowing on the stone beside the pulsing heart, the voice spoke one final time.

"You have merged."

The heart pulsed once, then sank into the pedestal and vanished.

The golden pool dimmed.

But the light inside them grew brighter.

Jude looked at his wives.

Their eyes were still glowing.

But something more shimmered now - something deeper.

A new spiral.

A new beginning.

They would return to the surface.

They would make the vision real.

Not by force.

Not by prophecy.

But by love.

By being.

And the world would bloom again.

When they emerged from the cavern, the dawn had shifted into full morning. The trees bowed gently as they passed, the golden pollen thick in the air but soft as breath. The moss beneath their feet seemed warmer now, eager beneath their steps, humming with the same rhythm that had entered them deep below. The spiral wasn’t just within Jude’s chest anymore - it bloomed faintly on each of their bodies, shimmering beneath the skin like an intimate tattoo that only they could see, only they could feel.

No one spoke. They didn’t need to. There was a quiet reverence in every motion, every glance, every brush of fingers. Susan’s hand lingered on Stella’s lower back as they walked. Natalie and Emma walked with arms laced, hips touching. Lucy kept close to Jude’s side, fingers trailing lightly over his wrist, anchoring herself to him like she was still drinking in what had just happened beneath the earth.
