Chapter 10

EPOV
She froze and stopped resisting in my arms... What had just happened I had told her that I was the one that was supposed to marry and now she wasn't saying a thing she was unresponsive...

I removed my arms from around her she took a step forward and turn to face me, I didn't speak but neither did she the expression on her face was placid before it quickly turned to anger...

"What the hell are you doing at sea if you were the one who was supposed to marry me; I left the day before the wedding and hadn't heard anything about a missing groom... Were you just going to leave me at the alter why's with that?" after she stopped complaining I took in what she said.

"What? How can you say that what if I did stay there you left I would have been the one standing at the alter waiting for my bride that would never come because she gone gallivanting off dresses as a man to see" she didn't say anything this was a pointless conversation I left she left it didn't matter...

"Who said I would be your bride even if I did stay?" Oh my god here we go,

"Why would I want a bride like you anyway your stubborn as a mule, defiant and just plain annoying" I knew I was being mean but she was all of those things...

"Unlike you who's stuck up, chauvinistic pig" ouch that hurt, did she really think I was those things she had only just meet me, she didn't know me…

"Who are you calling stuck up lady Isabella?" low blow I know but she was using all of her weapon and so was I…

"I didn't choose which family I was born into! I never chose that title, it doesn't matter anymore that's not who I am!" she shouted, she really did sound hurt, I felt a tug in my stomach I was didn't like it that I had hurt her even if it was just words,

Are argument was abruptly stopped by some in the crowd whose voice we all could recognise…

"For god's sake will you two ever stop arguing, you would think that you were together because you argue like an old married couple…" and with the last word out of Emmett's mouth the whole crew erupted into laughter I could even see my aunt and uncle trying not to laugh… I could see that Bella was just as offended as me, she had her arms crossed over her chest and a, I must say, adorable angry smirk on her face. When she saw me looking at her she glared at me then turned away from me and walked over to the edge of the ship to look out over the edge of the water…

The laughter finally died down and the ships crew returned to their duties, I walked over to the front of the ship and looked down at the waves as they crash against the sides I would never have a chance to be with the beautiful woman that now for sure hated me…

I tour my eyes away from the waves to look out into the ocean ahead when something that the light reflected off of caught my eye… it might be another ship in which case I knew that Carlisle would like to know…

I raced across the deck, passing where Isabella still stood, to my uncle's cabin. I knocked twice and waited for an answer which I got quickly… "Come in Edward," how he new it was me I didn't know it was strange but I didn't think anything of it…

I walked slowly into his cabin and looked around the room I saw the usual things that you would see in a captain's cabin from a desk covered in maps letters and papers to four chairs two of which were sat on by my aunt and uncle.

I couldn't help but notice the smirk on my aunt's face she was still thinking about the events which had happened up on the deck… I took one of the empty chairs and put my head in my hands and sighed, my aunt just laughed, "Oh Edward you got yourself in a right mess haven't you," she laughed again and put a hand on my shoulder.

"I have aunt but that's not why I'm here… Uncle there's a another ship close by I think it's the one you have been looking for, in not sure for certain but it had the same colours as the one your looking for…"

"That's great Edward, you know what to do, prepare the men and tell you cousins to get ready too…" he stood up and looked down at his maps "I had a feeling we would be seeing them soon,"

"What are you going to do about Isabella, Uncle?" I tried to keep the worry and concern out of my voice but I was never really good at hiding my emotions that was more Jaspers area of expertise he rarely showed his emotions and was an expert lie detector when he wanted to be…

"Isabella? I'm not sure what you mean Edward," great just what I needed, a sarcastic uncle messing with me…

"You know what I mean what are you going to do with her? She can't stay here its too dangerous, she could get others killed," this is me trying to move the conversation over to concern of the crew instead of the woman I was fighting with not 15 minutes ago… but it was never going to work my uncle could see right through me…

"she a good fighter Edward, better then most of the men on this ship she will be fine and to make you feel better I'll put someone close to her as her guard… how's that sound?" he had his all knowing smirk on his face, he was enjoying seeing me like this but I had to agree with him the guard did sound like a good idea...

"That's great uncle! That would keep her safe, who are you thinking of putting with her? Martins? Briggs?"

"No Edward I'm not putting someone she could easily beat, I'm putting someone who would have a the most experience with her, besides Mister Black either because we need him as our weapons master during the battles" he looked to my aunt and she let our a girlish giggle like she new something I didn't...

I didn't get it, there wasn't anyone who knew her besides Black and no one had fought her besides me… hold on for second that's what they meant wasn't it they were going to put her in my charge making it my responsibility to look after her, which was great considering that fact that she hated me…

"oh no, no way in hell, that's not fair why should I be the one to look after her, she horrible and mean and she hates me and it would be the worst match ever…" I knew I was wining like a kid but I really, really didn't wasn't to do this…

"Well get used to it Edward you are now the new guard of Lady Isabella whether you like it or not… so get to it. Lots to do before we reach the ship…" I let out a breath and turned around and headed out of his cabin back onto the ships deck where still stood against the railings was Isabella…
