Chapter 2
Treasure knew that many wanted her. She had power and she was beautiful. Most would do anything to get her. But she would have only one. Hopefully, Father had called her to discuss Elijah's possible proposal.
Her heart danced when she heard about the proposal.
"My daughter, it is up to you to decide."
She made herself look scornful, as a proper pirate maiden should during a proposal.
"He will do," Her eyes danced.
Captain Morgan grinned, revealing yellow and rotten teeth.
"Young love."
Treasure grinned also, revealing her pearly whites.
She ran to her cabin and locked the door behind her. Her voice broke out into a soft love song.
A knock at her door startled her. She hurried to the door and opened it to find Elijah standing there.
"Come in, man," Elijah grinned at her in a thank you. Customary behavior for him.
Treasure shut her curtains and turned around to ask exactly, why he was there.
He signaled her to keep quiet. He tiptoed to the cabin door, locked and turned and wrapped his arm around Treasure's waist. Pulling her into him, he gently pressed his lips against her lips. Her gasp barely escaped her lips.
Elijah had wanted to do that for a year now. He had even dreamed of it.
Treasure had, too. She loved this gentleman of fortune with all her heart. She wanted him forever.
But her mind turned to other things as their talk did, too. She thought of the rivalry between her and her sisters.
They would surely try to kill her, but she was much stronger than they were. And she was very popular with the crew.
They would rather serve with someone who knew what they were doing. Who had worked along side them, becoming friends.
She had power and friends in the right places. She would rule this ship! With the help of Elijah, whom she did love, she would rule a whole fleet of ships!
