Chapter 12: Will Learns the "Truth"
Not long after, the captain of the Flying Dutchman and his father were walking towards Colette. "I need to see Jack," Will said, assuming he was in the dining cabin.
Colette casually sprawled herself out just so she was covering the doorway. "Why?" she asked, pretending to sound bored.
"One of my crew told me a rumour that Elizabeth was aboard. Where is she?"
Colette yawned. "Why do you care?"
"She is my wife," Will explained.
Colette feigned a look of surprise. "Oh, really? So it's you. Elizabeth told me to give you a message."
"She asked you to tell me something? Why can't she just tell me herself?" Will was confused.
"She's busy at the moment." Colette paused. "In the Captain's cabin," she added with an evil grin. Will frowned and was about to reply when Colette's eyes glinted dangerously and she quickly added, "With the Captain."
Ah! What are you doing, Colette? Stop lying! She thought and bit her lip. No, Colette, don't stop! Said another voice in her head. Do you want Jack or not?
Will opened his mouth to speak but nothing came out so he closed it again. Finally he uttered, "Excuse me?"
Colette pretended to be surprised again. "Didn't she tell you? She's leaving you." When she received no reply, she said, "She's leaving you – for Jack."
"Elizabeth asked you to tell me this?" Will asked in disbelief. Colette nodded innocently. "I still need to speak to her," he decided stubbornly.
Colette's eyes glinted again, she leaned forward, and whispered so only Will could hear and not his father, "If I were you, instead of speaking to her, I would kill her."
