Chapter One
"You dirty bastard!" screamed Loretta as she flung her boot at Jack's head. Jack ducked and dodged. He couldn't understand why she was so mad. She was just like any other woman he had been with. Pretty, flirtatious and drunk.
He was quite tipsy himself when he picked her up at the local pub and escorted her back to his quarters on the pearl to devour her like a wild beast of the night. They made love like a masterful affair, full of passion and naughtiness. Jack felt he had taken care of her, so thought she would just happily drift away like his previous flings. But no. She had to start throwing boots and screaming. It was an odd experience as the only other women who he had known to do this were Mrs Elizabeth Turner and the hotheaded, Siñorita Angelica.
After a bit more shouting, Loretta stormed out of the cabin, full of hatred and rage for Jack. The crew stepped out the way of the exploding volcano of a woman, as she ran across the docks, never to be seen again.
