The Kidnapping and Arrival.

"I demand a better room than this! This is no proper way to treat a princess such as me and I shall scream, trash, and I will not stop! You have my word!" There goes her dress, the hems of the large skirt being raised from the floor boards of the ship as she brings her leg up and towards the iron bars keeping her in to which- she is not highly amused and satisfied of. The princess continues to kick, and kick, and kick the bars as she yells loudly, "Let me out!" Continuously, and rather grateful of her shoes being made out of hard material, effective to protect her foot still kicking the stupid iron bars and satisfyingly producing loud clanking noises, scratching noises, mixed with her yelling she purposely does in a high pitch volume that's beginning to capture the attention of the two guards, part of the crew of this ship and they began to tell her to pipe it down, a clear distraught look on their faces as they approach her cell.

Who is Louise to stop? Never! Louise of the Beilschmidt royal family of the kingdom of north, princess Louise, shall not stop and continues kicking the bars the more the two men approaches. And it shows a perfect chance for her to reach out to one of them, grabbing the collar of his shirt and pulling him forcefully against the hard, iron bars and his face clashes against it, knocking him out!

The second man cried out a curse and is about to reach for his dagger in its holster around his waist, when suddenly, an angry tone spoke as the heavy heels of a pair of boots clatter against the wooden boards of the floor. Louise glared at the man walking down the short flight of stairs, captain of this ship harbouring a crew of pirates, Luciano Vargas! One of the most feared pirate, the strongest to sail the seas and what a waste of a handsome face like that.

"You bastard!" Louise hollered, and he's glaring back, huh? She concluded it a glaring contest it is. The princess crossed her arms, turning up her nose at him and scoffed. "I demand a better room than this dirty cell," she said again.

If she is to be taken hostage, should she not be given a better treatment than this? Especially so after this captain and his crew of men so suddenly kidnapped her.

In before the poor princess was kidnapped, she was well on her way with her sister in their lovely, gold rimmed and crimson red coloured carriage pulled by the horses being coached down the path of her kingdom heading out to travel to the neighbouring kingdom ruled by the Edelstein family just south west from her place of ruling.

It is a very nice kingdom, beautiful, and rich in a unique culture, a musical one so to say. Ranging from being the number one trader of musical instruments throughout the entire land to being known as the number one place to be for extravagant musical shows by the musicians born and raised to be in that very kingdom. Prince Roderich of the Edelstein family, the man she is to marry is a charmer, a gentleman, and the princess was very excited with her sister and their dear grandfather, the king who is already there to form a bond between the two kingdoms through this wedding to be held soon.

But as some might say, things don't go according to plan when suddenly; the carriage with the two princesses were in, were assaulted by this group of men, strong and to be feared.

It happened so quick, the coach suddenly pulling over to the left side of the road and he steps down in concern to check on a man lying on the ground, Louise recalls. As soon as the dear coach left his seat, it was then that a loud cry was heard and the men appeared from beneath the bushes, brandishing weapons from swords to gun and charged forward the carriage—however, they had no intention to harm their target at all. They needed to assert themselves as the ones in control towards the two sisters of monarch as so their leader says, a nasty looking man with a very angry looking face, clad in a blue long coat with gold trimmings and a pair of boots as black as a raven's feather.

Though they did not hurt the sister of princess Louise which is princess Maria, the man leading the attack was quick to knock poor princess Louise unconscious and carry her in his arms as they make a great escape on the southern route to quickly reach the port in two days' time, and he boarded the proud ship he owns together with his crew and holds the unconscious princess captive in his cell below the deck as his ship begins to sail.

Captain of the ship, Luciano Vargas, a pirate to be feared for his and his men's strength and the countless, weaker enemies he has defeated in the past. The mountain of gold he has successfully discover, savaged, all through battles he won and claiming the prizes much to his pleasure. A man with quite the temper, impatience, and good looks not to be wasted with skin bathed in tan kissed by the long years under the sun, eyes shining in a pink, maroon shade like a dazzling gemstone, hair in reddish tint—some of his crews jokingly say, repeating their jokes, their captain's hair is coloured with the blood of his enemies! Though none is sure whether it is true or not as Luciano himself amuses along with the repetitive joke every time. And more all, he is rather young. Among the youngest compared to the five strongest pirates, they've reached the edge of thirties and Luciano is still fooling around at mid-twenties, a man enjoying his life and victories on the seas he's sailing.

But now we can't say he's enjoying his day today, is he? Not when the furious princess Louise came to awake, made loud noises, yelled and yelled and yelled, and even knocked out one of his men.

"I won't repeat myself again, you darn pirate! Let me out of this cell!" The poor princess, her pride still as high as her status and she's not afraid at all in looking up to the fearsome pirate Luciano and matching his cold, murderous glare

"Why would I want you out of there? You're becoming more or less like a deranged ape and less of what I expect of a princess." Cold, impatient tone coming from the pirate captain himself was what everyone knew when he gave out that ruthless, dark and supposedly intimidating stare that was rumoured to even intimidate the most dangerous sea creatures.

As if that were really the case.

These rumours were probably quite the exaggerations he was proud of, as though those dangerous sea creatures may not be all that intimidated by him, he was not afraid of facing said sea creatures. He has encountered and killed them over in his past, so how could he not face a sea serpent or even one of the large krakens?

"I think you look better in the cage if I have to be honest. If you're becoming more like an animal with all that horrendous screeching and shouting, where else do you belong?" He was rather proud and was about to leave when the guard that was the only one left conscious, spoke.

"I mean no disrespect at all, Captain, but Captain Arthur specifically asked that you let her remain in the same condition as when she was captured." What? The captain doesn't remember that in the discussion at all. All Luciano thought was capture princess, deliver her in some months over to Captain Arthur, then huge sum of money would be surging over for him! "...Did he really say that? I mean, I had a discussion with him and he didn't mention that."

"Well, Captain, as much as I do not want to supposedly defend her." The man said as he picked up the other unconscious guard. "Captain Arthur has specifically asked that just about when you were leaving, else half of the gold he promised is what you'll receive."

God, damn it. Did Arthur really ask that? No wonder he's offering Luciano a huge sum of money for just delivering a princess, but due to his rash nature of paying attention on nothing but the price, the conditions that came with receiving the price was always blurred in his memory. Sure, he was a ruthless pirate, but he tends to forget things if he would ever begin to think about the reward price that simply comes for completing a fellow pirate's errand such as now.

He glared back at that damned annoying face of the princess, who was looking up to him with that smug face. It can be said that Luciano was not amused the slightest at the fact she had to be treated so nicely when she shouldn't be in the first place! But where could they put her? He could not let her sleep along with her crew since it was a big place where they all slept together, and the only room available for one person is that…

No.

Fucking no way.

Does he have to give over his own room? Why?

So now he has to sleep along with his crew. God, damn it. He tried to ease his breathing, because Luciano was feeling like a bull, and his hands were clenched, as he slowly turned to the guard, "...See it that everyone knows to prepare a good bed for me along in your sleeping chambers. While I'll go over to my own room to see the preparations for the dear princess. " Luciano said, as he really was just wanting to curse and punch that satisfied look out of this damn girl's face.

"So please, stay here for a moment as we go on to prepare your room, princess." He begrudgingly was about to stomp out furiously, but decided to calm himself through punishing that man, the guard who took all the rotten fun out of this mess. "Also, you're assigned to cleaning duties for the next few weeks." He said to that man who clearly had that satisfyingly distraught and angered face.

Now the ordeal is done, Louise's smirk grew wide. Hah, serves that darn pirate right! The cheer inside her increased and she watched as the pirate leaves together with the guards, the unconscious one even and the princess could only wait in this tiny cell until they return but she had a thought. Despite the awful stench reeking about from every corner of the walls, the slow dripping sound from the floor boards above and echoing, the faint yells of the crews of this ship being heard in this moment, princess Louise was thinking of something rather reckless that could bring danger to her life, but really now, would that captain harm her simply for escaping? Louise certainly hears that guard earlier, saying that she is to be delivered to Arthur? As she is, unharmed and unscathed, she recalls. So again she asks, the captain of the ship won't hurt her, right?

But how is she to escape? Sure, she is a princess who can wield a sword and fight but taking on a whole crew is too overwhelming and chances are, she will die. And that's not a pretty chance, not at all as the princess values her life. But generally speaking, she had never been put in this type of situation so she wouldn't know how exactly to act.

Swimming is not an option, she cannot swim. Unfortunate, really, and with a heavy sigh, she decided it's best to put this off. There's still the high chance of waiting for her grandfather to take necessary steps, that'll lead to her rescue. Hopefully? For now, a guard returned and opened the cell door for her and Louise follows the guard out.

Giving no mind as she passes by all the crews sneering, chuckling, grinning at her. She held her head high and mighty, not to let herself be affected by these men and even the captain of the ship. Poor handsome captain who looks rather angry, and Louise smirked a little as she walked past him into the lovely room right below the captain's deck.

What caught her by surprise is the captain himself following in and closing the door after.

Louise turned around, facing him and a pout curled on her lips. She's just about to have her moment being in this room, to relax! But the captain here just had to step in and being alone with him is... Well, she had just realized that and felt uneasiness clouding, the princess slowly took step after step backwards until she found herself against a wall. Well, if it ever comes down to it, she could take him down...? Lord, help her. But she must appear unaffected!

"I don't believe there's anything between you and me that we can talk about, yes? Then why are you here?" Her voice was a little shaky but still she maintained her neutral façade. And is the captain going to apologize? She mused, but really, as if he'd do so.

It was awful, as it completely disturbed the captain to no end that she, of all people, had to get his room. True to the stories, despite those slight exaggerations, pirates were greedy. Very darn greedy and possessive of anything that they own to their selves. Luciano was a part of how people would classify pirates like them as he was self-centred, and most of all he was cruel. Vengeance was something Luciano would like, as he devised a simple plan that was a bright idea in his mind. As he watched the princess now being led to the room where she would be staying in, he made sure to close door behind him, lock the door even, and slid the key down below and out to the other side and just in case, with the secret knock, his crew will know it'll be their captain requesting they open the door for him.

Despite the anger that clouded his eyes every time he gazed at her, she was beautiful. Who wouldn't expect that from a woman who bore royal, beautiful blood with genes that perfected her very appearance? Her hair was short, but it was alright, as he focused on her very face. He can help himself with this girl if he wants to, right?

Arthur be damned for now, as he was sure if he were to take that precious thing that every woman keeps to their selves unless they were willing to be given to their supposed love, Arthur wouldn't take it too bad, most likely. Luciano's boots clacked over the wooden floor, as he got closer, nearer to the princess, with that seemingly charming, but dangerous smirk over his face.

"Now, now. No need to be so self-conscious, princess... It's not bad that I just wanted to, I don't know, play around a bit?" The fear and panic that flashed into her eyes as he got closer was real exciting to him. "Though Arthur's words do mean something, he probably won't mind if I do take something, that probably wouldn't mean you'll actually change, just that, you'll gain, experience, I guess?" He chuckled, as he was a mere few feet near her.

She was so amusing to watch as it was so obvious she wouldn't want this, and he was just entertained by her reactions.

"Why am I wanting to do it to you? Because, princess, I sure for want to see you without all that puffy uncomfortable clothes you wear." He loved it. Teasing people like this, as it excites him, in a slightly erotic way, but not that he'd actually do it. Despite the countless tales of his piracy, some of his moral code is still intact, so never, ever would he actually do it forcefully to a woman.

But it didn't mean his playful words were not honest. He has desired a lot of women, but never, ever as strong as a desire as this towards the princess herself "And I also would like to see the look of the Edelstein's face if they knew I, for one, took your virginity." Though, that was only a fantasy he knew he'll never have, with this woman hating him for taking her away from her life, her home, her family. Though he was outward a seemingly perverted man, never would he act on it without consent. It would be strange for anyone, if they found out a pirate who has killed, severed body parts, sunk ships, fought large dangerous monsters, actually would never dare force a woman to lie in bed with him despite his erotic and extreme desires, but it was only Luciano's way of working, how he was made, and he openly accepted it without a single thought.

His words, his body language, his smirk telling a thousand tales, Louise was terrified. He was close, closer than the princess would like and the smell of sweat, the salty sea, together with a hint of wine she could detect from here and she gulped nervously as every words he said sent chills down her spine and she hated it- hating the utter reality that she feels so defenceless!

The princess snapped out of it just as the bastard pirate said so casually what would it be for the Edelstein if he were to take her virginity? Princess Louise Beilschmidt wouldn't ever allow it! The princess allowed a gasp in complete shock to escape her lips and anger ensues. She drove the palm of her hand right across the bastard pirate's cheek with all the strength she could muster and that alone made him stagger back, as she cries out, "Don't you dare! Stay away from me!"

Her voice broke pitifully, and tears spilled.

The princess never faced this kind of situation and she's very, very vulnerable. She hated it. Her hands shaking, wrapping around her round frame as she glares at the pirate through tear stained eyes and said again, this time, with her voice quivering, "Stay away." Her mind was screaming however, closing to plea, that he doesn't hurt her.

His eyes blinked in surprise, the girl got easily terrified alright, by this acting of his. He had made many men and women cry before he slayed them, but never had he made a princess cry this bad. The slap on his cheek—she really did hit it with such force, and even with her telling him to back off, he couldn't, he didn't, as a smile remained on his face as he was taking a few more steps, which made her burst into more tears.

"Alright, princess, this is really the end of the line—you really want it that rough? Well I for sure will be rough." Those were terrifying words, as Luciano envisioned a scenario where he can finally bed someone with such a high class—but it wouldn't be possible as he was now playing along with this fear in her own eyes, which he didn't mind, after he had delivered her to Arthur, he's sure to seduce the best women he can find in small towns he can sail to!

And when he got closer that their body were mere inches from each other, Louise positively let out a small cry, and you know what Luciano did? He just kissed her cheek. He was sure it's not bad to do that at all, since it was nothing but a simple, sweet kiss, on the cheek before he took a few steps back, though it is tempting to stay in that spot for a long period of time as her scent—of perfume, of that royalty he couldn't understand was such a good thing to breathe into.

"Too bad I really can't do that. I won't be that kind of guy despite me actually wanting to do all that with you." It was so casual as if like Louise didn't burst into tears, that he didn't scare her half to death, but what else do you expect from a pirate like this? "Just wanted to get a good scare out of you to wipe that stupid smirk out of your face." He decided to say too, since the pirate captain has not got much to hide, because what is the point of hiding his reasons from the captive who'll probably never see her family again?

The tingling feeling of the kiss surprised her, the princess couldn't begin to comprehend why but his next words out of his mouth angered her to no end. Oh so angry, after he walks out and just as the door is about to close, Louise took off her shoe and threw it directly at the wooden, thick door with a cry, "You bastard!"

Who does he think he is, playing with her feelings like that? Kissing her cheek without even any permission given? How dare he?! She hated him, the princess was filled with hatred for that bastard man and she wants revenge.

So this other pirate Arthur wants her in good condition, huh?

Then she'll make it so that she will not be and that pirate won't get his precious gold as a result! Perfect!

Finally, Louise stepped back and admired her work.

Her work of barricade the door with the cupboards, drawer and the adorable night stand and it took her quite a while, having to take off her dress and wear the clothes she found in the closet that probably belongs to Luciano but what other choice does she have? Better to wear this loose shirt and comfortable brown slacks, and lucky her she found a pair of boots and surprisingly, a pair of clean socks. Because you swear pirates would be dirty, but, maybe some are not as the clothes she currently wears is clean and smells good, while putting away her dress.

Oh she'll miss wearing that but it won't suit with the current situation she's in. But all that aside, the door is perfectly blocked and the princess is proud, now to just wait as she settles in the mattress, proved to be comfortable but the strong scent of that darn pirate bastard hits and she hated it. But what can she do?

She's tired, hungry, and misses her family. The princess misses her dear grandfather and she worries sick of that old man, how he'll be upon hearing word that her granddaughter had been kidnapped and taken someplace foreign.

Louise couldn't stop the tears flowing, the overwhelming emotions surging from anger to sadness, anxiety, and she wants to go home. The poor princess wept silently, clutching the sheets around her wept to her own despair.

Oh how the pirate frustratingly hates and at the same time, enjoys her for her appearance. It was like a battle clashing within his head, as hate and like was both what he felt for the princess that he has to capture. She was an amusing girl to be, an untouched beauty Luciano was ready to go on and just take for himself. Well, maybe he's not doing that anytime soon as his head replayed that montage of different fantasies he really would have loved doing to her.

He would have loved touching her in every place that could matter, maybe even own her for himself if the gold Arthur promised him wasn't probably worth a quarter of his own gold, and that was already a big sum of gold for the crew and himself. Thoughts like that mingled through his brain until one of his crew approached him, distracting him from his wayward thinking and pulling him back to reality.

"What is it?" He asked coldly, in that same demanding, strong way he would act towards his crew.

"Well, Captain. I wanted to suggest we give the princess some sustenance to eat. We have to keep her alive to get the gold, right Captain?" Luciano at first would think that the man might be siding with the princess, but seeing that greedy look and having known this man to be as greedy as every one of them, he guessed he could consider his suggestion.

"Sure. Get her some good bread and jam from the pantry, since that is currently what we have right until our next stop to town." The crew member was about to go when Luciano made sure to say something last for an order.

"And let me bring it over for her."

...

A few moments later, here Luciano was, carrying a plate of decent food for the princess. Grabbing the key from his neck, he unlocked the door, but look at this; He can't push it. That sneaky little princess. She really wants this the harder way, huh?

"Princess, you are aware that with what you've done, we pirates would break this door through our brute strength? That means we'll also destroy the door to the room, and that means no more privacy for you and I can let any of my men do whatever they want with you at every night." It was a serious threat that Luciano considered doing.

If Louise was going to be stubborn, and won't let anyone in, then guess what, he will get rid of his want for her and just let the crew get on with it on her. "I may not do such acts towards you without consent but my crew... They do not uphold or share the same values as me. Do take off the obstruction, because you might just be the well-needed relief of my crew if you're that stubborn."

For the princess, however, the tears didn't stop and so did her cries, the poor princess felt too much of emotions surging as worries flooded her mind and wiping away the proofs of her cries was tiring so princess Louise could only wail, weep, sobbing into the pillow with a heart sinking deep, deeper than the ocean over the thoughts of being away from her family, never seeing her family, forever. And that is scary, scary for the princess who fears the unknown; she doesn't know where she'll end up, she doesn't know who this Arthur is, she doesn't know how she will fare on this ship, she doesn't know what will happen next! All that clutched in her mess of a mind, leading her to cry continuously.

The sound of the knocking on the door surprised the princess only a tiny bit and hearing the pirate's voice wasn't one to comfort her- instead, it made her cries increase.

With a broken, sad voice, she said, "Go away!" A soft sniffle follows. "J- Just leave me alone!" And another stream of wail. Louise feels doomed and being left in solitude seemed to be a best solution, the princess as well didn't exactly hear what the pirate had said but she could not find it in herself to care

Neither could she move, too much energy was taken out of her from the crying she's going through. The pillow is soaking wet with her tears and her throat was soaring, she could use some water but does it really matter? Weakly she cries, "Leave me alone," but still it was loud enough for anyone to hear.

The poor princess sounds wounded, and broken, exhausted as well. Like a poor puppy crying in pain.

"…" His hand clutched into a fist was left suspended in mid-air, just a few inches away from the door leading to the room the princess currently occupies and Luciano was left there in silence, hearing the princess cry so, so, pathetically. She sounded utterly sad, in pain, and Luciano was dumbfounded.

What is he supposed to do? The pathetic cries alone tugged on his heartstrings and halted him from saying anything mean, or even knocking—banging on the door to call out for her. Call out her name, tell her he brought food, tell her to open this door or…

She's still crying and Luciano frowned deeply. He took a deep breath, and the second he released, he knocked on the door gently.

"My crew prepared some food for you, and I need you to open this door." He said.

No response.

"Princess, I won't repeat myself again. Open this door so I may bring the food to you."

If she doesn't respond, Luciano concluded he will leave, and—

"I don't need any. I'm not hungry!" Her voice was broken and by God, she sounds horribly pathetic.

"You will have to eat sooner or later, pri—" "No I don't! Leave me alone!"

Luciano felt a twitch of annoyance surging and he took yet another deep breath. "Princess," he said. "I will not—"

"I SAID LEAVE ME ALONE!"

The whole ship fell silent, the princess's cry was heard through the wooden door and reached all the ears of the crew on board, who were looking back to their captain slowly breathing in and out and they knew what it meant, they knew the ragged breathing, shoulders arising and dropping in unison with every time he inhales, exhales, and the impatient left foot of the captain's tapping continuously, the crew were beginning to grow worry for Luciano Vargas who was getting angry.

Luciano breathed in, out, releasing slowly, and gritted his jaw over several times until finally, he looked away. He looked away and exhaled long before returning his gaze towards the door. "Fine," he said.

"If you're not going to eat, THEN STARVE IN THERE!"
