Chapter 5
"Don't even think of trying something!"
Jack was back in the brig considering about the events that happened the last day. The talk with the captain hadn't cleared up anything, except perhaps the quantity of the diamonds.
I'm curious about what is going to happen to me, he thought, one thing's for sure : she doesn't really like me!
In the cabin the captain was pacing back and forth. Bloody maggot! Thinks he's everything!
There was a knock on the door and the captain turned around, still rather annoyed.
"YES!"
"Here's your meal, capt'n."
"It's good, Alex, you can enter."
Alex entered the cabin. He was a handsome looking guy from somewhere in the twenties, with long golden hair and deep green eyes.
"Thank you," the captain said," just put it on the table."
"Is something troubling you?" he asked.
"No."
Alex approached her and took her shoulders from behind.
"Let go of me! I know what you want but it will never happen! You will never take advantage of any weakening moment or I will remind you of our status! Am I clear on this!"
Alex released her and answered : "Aye, capt'n." In all this the captain didn't even move a muscle. "Good." she said, "you can go now."
The man walked to the door but stopped when she suddenly cried out to him.
"Wait! You go and get that Sparrow out of the brig. I want him to dine with me. Inform the cook also that we need another plate and better food. You can take this one back with you. That's all."
Alex exited the cabin and the captain continued to look out of the window, like she was doing from the moment that the boy came in.
In the brig Jack, bored as he was, had began to sing to himself.
Yoho, to the bottle I go. To heal my heart and drown my woe. Rain may fall and wind may blow but there still beeeeeeeeee, many miles to go…
And because of his singing (that was quite out of tune) he didn't hear the approaching footsteps.
Sweet is the sound of the pouring rain and the stream that falls from hill to plain. Better than rain or whistling brook is Jack Sparrow off the Navy's hook!
"Wonderful singing, Sparrow." Alex said.
"Thank you, and if you don't mind, it's CAPTAIN Sparrow, savvy?"
"I do mind. Now come on, I have to take you to the cabin, the capt'n wants to dine with you."
"Does she? Nice!"
"I warn you, don't you even think of trying to do something to her or you will not only have her but also my wrath to count on."
"Oh my are we touchy today! Don't you worry, I will not touch your precious capt'n. Unless off course she jumps on me first."
"Don't get any hopes, she won't."
"Pity."
They reached the cabin's door and Alex opened it for Jack and pushed him inside harshly.
"Good evening, captain Sparrow." The captain said
"Good evening to you too my lady, nice to see you again. I would take your hand to place a polite kiss on it if it weren't for my wrists to be bound behind my back."
"Here, let me help you."
She left her spot and went over to her desk to get a dagger.
"Now can I finally know your name?"
"Why?"
"Why not?"
"(sigh) My name's Vridluna, but I have no clue what you're going to do with it."
" Just knowing it I guess, but it's a beautiful name to know."
"I know what you're up to captain Sparrow, but it's not going to work. I don't fall so fast for flatteries ."
She now stood right behind him and cut the rope around his wrists. Then suddenly he swirled around, ripped the veil away, took her arms firmly and pressed his lips against hers. While he kissed her harshly but still gentle, his tongue begged for entrance and surprisingly she led him slid in, even if he still hold her rough by her arms. He explored the sweet taste off her mouth and she felt his warm breathing and his tongue playing with hers.
And as suddenly as it came, it ended. Jack stroked his thumb over Vridluna's face and smiled.
"I don't get why you hide your face, it's beautiful. Even with those diamonds in it."
Here you go! Another wonderful chapter!
Also my regards to Black Rose! Very good thinking. Or was it that obvious?
And I want to thank my sweet little sister for giving me so much inspiration and helping me when I needed it! Hannon le Saurona!
