Chapter 4

My latest story is called Princess to a Pirate. It is my first attempt at a captain swan story. The curse never happened and Prince Charming and Snow white keep Emma locked up to protect her. I don't not own the character or Once upon a time i write for the enjoyment of fans!

Just to warn you that my tense and punctuation plus my spelling as many have pointed out is horrific!

Thanks to all the reviews! I wasn't considering adding another few chapters but due to popular demand I will for you guys. I firstly didn't what to continue just because I hated my work (if you can even call it that). I hope that this is an improvement and I hope you enjoy!

Emma POV

One blink... Two blink... Three blink. Paintings of pixies? A wooden bed frame? I feel a heavy weight around my waist. What's around my waist. I turn slightly to my left and see a man shirtless in my bed... wait it's not my bed. I jump up quickly forgetting about the man sleeping. I then realise I'm wearing nothing and quickly cover my front- like that would help rebuild my dignity. I look up at the painted ceiling and suddenly remember what happened yesterday and what I gave to Hook.

My head starts to get heavy with thoughts, what will my parents think? Would I be allowed to still follow my parent orders for my marriage?

Will what I have done,bring shame on my family... our kingdom? Oh God what have I done. Not intentionally my fault, but at least I don't have to marry the foreign prince (the dark one's son). The only reason I agreed to marry the prince was to save the future of my kingdom, even if it meant marring my heart away to someone I didn't even know or love. I wish I could have followed my heart and marry the prince of my dreams! Agh how girlish that sounds. However my biggest or latest problem was I am now married to Captain Hook, the fiercest pirate in the known in the seven kingdoms. What was I to do? I was beginning to start thinking of my escape plan off a ship in the middle of an ocean like the heroines I have read about in my books. Unfortunately I was interrupted by mumbles.

" You ok love," Hook asked me as he rose up beside me and rubbed my shoulders tried to release stress but he was adding more but his touch was so soothing and relaxing. I could get used to this.

"Did I wake you Hook."I asked him,

"The name's Killian, love. Your moving away from me slowly brought me back to reality but then your panic attack definitely woke me up. By the way last night was bloody brilliant! I couldn't tell if it was real or a dream!" Hook spoke softly while sucking and kissing my neck and earlobe which felt so good, "I have been (suck) with (kiss) a lot of maidens in my time (kiss) but you were (suck) the best."

"Thanks, I do try for my husband!" I said sarcastically pulling myself out of his warm embrace.

"I better get up." Hook stated while getting out of bed, " Your most welcome to stay here or join the crew and I for breakfast,"

" I'll join you. Do you have any female clothes?" I asked him,

"Well I have a dress which is pretty heavy but it's the only thing I have, apologies if it isn't up to her highness' standards."

The dress was a dark red satin which had a bell shaped skirt, the sleeves came down to the elbow and was quite revealing at the front. The ties was positioned at the front and with one simple pull the dress would it was the only thing Hook had.

"I'll wear it for now, Do you have any materials that I could use to make something new for myself ?" Dressmaking was one of my hidden talents which I didn't want anyone to know especially my mother. She would show the whole entire kingdom a simple stitch which I had completed unsuccessfully.

"I'll get my crew search, for my lady. " Hook handed me the dress" You almost ready wife?"

"Yes, Come on let's get some breakfast. Hook could maybe you help me meet all of your crew." I fixed my hair as it had become a mess from last night.

"Sure thing sweet heart. First I show you the senior members of my crew as I usually serve and eat breakfast with them. Let's go." Hook told me as he opened the door for me.

"Thank you" I said as Hook closed the door behind us and held his right arm out for me to place my left hand on his arm.

Several minutes later we arrived at the kitchen were the food was being served. I took a deep breath and felt sick. Hook held my hand and rubbed it to comfort me while smiled.

"Well here we go love,"Hook said as he opened the door and walked in front of me, "Lads, well done on a successful mission and we welcome the lovely Scarlet on board. Lads here she is."

I slowly walked into the room and gradually lifted my head. I could hear shock and surprised noises, some were even looking at me as if they could see through me.

"Wow Captain, she's a lovely one ain't she." One of the ship members said to me, " Welcome aboard the Jolly Roger Ms Scarlet." As he kissed my hand. I pulled my hand away from his kiss.

"Well I think that's enough meetings today. Lets tuck in." Hook said as he sensed that I didn't like contact. The crew took their seats and started to just grab the food set out for them. I followed Hook to his seat and the was a empty seat waiting for me. I sat down and took some strawberries, raspberries and some blueberries with some bread on the side. This was surprising food for a pirate - I had thought that pirates ate biscuits and rum.

Hook had laid out a fork, knife and spoon for me. When I saw this I smiled at Hook. Who knew he was a gentleman? I should really give him more credit.

After Hook and the senior members went up on to the deck were most of the crew were cleaning. I followed him up the stairs. What if the crew didn't like me? I was the new mistress Jones / Hook and of the ship. Hook looked over at me and gave me a small smile after giving the senior officials his orders. He walked over to me and introduced me to every crew member. It was impressive that he knew all of their names. He took me to the maps room and said,

" Emma from now on I shall call you Scarlet from now on except when it is myself and you alone. I know a ship ain't a place for a woman but you can either go to my cabin or stay here and read if you want." I looked surprised it him after he learnt my secret love, " I saw you noticing the books yesterday or you can learn the ropes of the ship - learn to sail or navigate. Just let me know." And with that he left the room. I went over chose a suitable book sat down on a comfy chair and started to read and occasionally I would stop and stare out into the deep blue sea.

Thanks for reading! I hope you liked it and was worth the wait! To really show your love of the story, review!
