The Earl and the Pirate
Disclaimer~ I don't own it
Warning~ m/m , I can't spell and have terrible grammar.
Chapter one "The Ton*!"
It was a large house on one of the most envied streets of London. It was decorated with an abundance of flowers and sculpture's. It was the town house of the Lord William Turner, earl of most of the eastern border of England. Inside the house was the ever cold hearted earl himself and a very upset Elizabeth Swan. "What do you mean by it's over?!"
William who had been causally listening to what Elizabeth was saying suddenly smiled his notoriously evil smile and said. "Well Elizabeth what do you think it means. Never mind you don't think so I guess I shall have to spell it out for you. I am finished with you. You and I are no more are engagement is over finished! If need be I shall tell you in other languages rifinito, fini, beendet! It's over Elizabeth I want you gone and I want you gone right now!
Elizabeth looked up at William and changed tactics, tears welled up in her eyes and she pleaded.
" But William I thought I had changed you."
Williams's eyes burned cold.
" Changed me did ye? Do you know how many women I have slept with since you and I met? Hear this Elizabeth no woman can change me not now not ever. I am cruel heartless and on top of that I am an arrogant bastard. I am leaving this bloody country to go to the Islands where I can be away from the ton, duals*, clubs*, ball rooms, the silly dit*, and most of all silly women like you! Good day Madame!"
With that the head of the staff ran in the room and ushered Miss. Swan out. After the screaming woman had left William sat in a chair by the empty fire place. On the chair side table was a glass of brandy in which William pored one for himself. Broodingly William stared into the empty fire place until a large white head appeared on his lap. William showed his rarely seen true smile at his companion.
"I bet your glad she is gone Bear. Nasty woman just like her father."
William patted the Pyrenees absent mindedly until he herd the small shifting of silk slippers. "Grand mum come sit with me I do need to talk with some one smarter than a potato."
The old woman chuckled." I see you have carried out the first half of your plan my son? But I must let you know. You're not all that cold hearted. I mean would a cold hearted man save a poor half dead woman ?"
William looked up at his adopted grandmother." You and grandfather did so much for me. After I was branded a bestirred I was all but left to die after mother and father ....well after the incident when I joined the navy and went to China you and he raised and taught me the more civilized and clear way to live."
The old woman nodded wisely. "Your revenge on the swan family is not yet complete my son. Remember in the east when we avenge some one we take down those who have hurt us stone by stone."
William went back to staring at the fire." Remember son revenge only dulls the pain love is what banishes it."
Lifting up his brandy glass to his lips William drank the whole glass of brandy. Then standing up he turned to his grand mum. "Don't worry, Bear loves me and so do you."
The old woman looked at the dog and raised her eyebrow." He happens to love my silk slippers too. Are you planning on taking this mongrel on your ship?"
The dog gave a loud bark and William got on his knee and started to scratch the dog. "I take Bear everywhere. Dogs are more loyal than most men, more useful too. Besides this old boy can handle the see and fights like a dog so I have nothing to fear."
The old woman only gave William for his bad pun." Well you have all the knowledge of the eastern monks of China. So if any Pirate try's to fight you well I will pray your in a good mood."
William chuckled then looked at the time." I must be off my crew shall be waiting"
A frail hand touched Williams shoulder. William felt something being placed in his hand. Looking down at the object he was surprised to see a small jeweled dagger that had belonged to his grandfather." Thank you."
With tears in her eyes the woman said." Live William you must live and when you return all of your father's lands will have been restored. You shall live the life you were born to live."
William nodded at his grand mum then walked out to his carriage.
The carriage ride to the port was uneventful. When William got out he felt the sea air on his neck and he looked at his boat and crew. Half were convicts and the other half had been like him ex naval officers. All were very excited. When William got aboard and felt the sea beneath him he thought."
No grand mother I have my true home this is my real home."
William looked at his willing crew and shouted." Alright you lot lets GO!"
The sails were set and William was on his way to ending his vengeance.
