Edward POV
I was pleasantly surprised when she let me come as close as I did. She needed someone to cry on. Usually I wouldn't care if she was hurt but the see the forlorn look on her face made me feel upset that I killed them. She hugged back after a while and her crying slowed into silence. I looked down at the puffy red eyes and saw she was asleep. I laid her gently on the bed and pulled the quilt into her. I was tempted to undress her but then I would loose her trust and I wanted her trust. I didn't know why. I returned to the deck while she slept. There was no reason to make anyone guard the door she couldn't go anywhere. We were at sea miles from any inhabited land. Emmett and Jasper greeted me as I walked to the middle of the deck.

"How was she?"
"I dunno yet I left her to sleep. She was very upset about her father."
"Do you know how long she will be here for?"
"Until I wish her to leave. But from now on……" I turned and shouted as loud as I could.
"CREWWWWW!!"
I heard the sound of running footsteps and heads and eyes appeared out of no where waiting for me to speak to them.
"Princess Isabella is to remain on board indefinitely. No one is to touch her unless ordered to do so; she can move about but never leave the ship. At the moment she is asleep and isn't to be bothered. Tomorrow we shall see what she can do."
They all nodded their heads. I had the perfect plan for punishment is anyone broke these commands but I hoped that I wouldn't have to use them for Isabella's sake. They all left me after I waved my hand at them. The posts were filled again and all was quiet except the footsteps of the cook that made his way towards me. He could hardly be called a cook because most of the stuff he made wasn't edible.
"Captain, what shall I make for the princess when she wakes up?"
"Just make toast. She shouldn't expect any special treatment from us because she was royalty."
He turned and left. Was royalty. I wonder who they would get now. Maybe the dreaded cousin. It didn't matter I had my princess. I checked that we were on course as we were before the raid and returned to the cabin. There she slept silently. Her breathing steady and calm. Her curls strung across her face and body in loose curls. I lifted them from her face and moved them gently. She sighed and her head turned towards me.
Bella POV
I woke to a bright light coming from a window near me. A fuzzy figure leaning over me. My eyes fluttered open and I saw a god like man gazing down at me. Then I remembered. Everything. I felt my smile leave my face. He saw and leant back and walked away as I sat up. I was relieved to see I was still in my dress. I sighed inwardly in relief. My eyes adjusted to the light. I was still in the room.
