Captive:
Gavin turned on his heel and raced back to The Morning Star. Jacob, Jason, Thomas, and Alan were running towards him.
"Get to the Star!" Gavin yelled at them as he ran towards them.
The men stopped looking at him confused. They glanced at one another trying to understand what Gavin yelled.
"The Star! Get to the ship!" He yelled again.
Jason heard him this time. He nodded to him as he turned towards the ship.
"To the Star lads!" Jason said to them.
Jason didn't leave them time to understand. He grabbed a hold of Thomas' shoulder and spun him around. Jason then took off to the ship. Thomas and Alan fo
Show time: The Morning Star left the harbor and was now in the open ocean. Gavin focused on Travis's ship. He studied it. There was something off. He narrowed his eyes as they continued towards it. "Captain?" Jason asked. "Travis is waiting for us." Gavin said a hint of surprise in his voice. "Waiting." Jason mimics Gavin's tones. "For as long as I've known him he has never been a straightforward person." Gavin muttered to himself. "Aye. He's very manipulative. Gavin keep your guard up. I doubt this will be just and exchange." Jason frowned. The world was foggy. She could hear talking. She went to move but couldn'
Begin Again: Gavin's feet touch the wooden floor of the Morning Star. He had planned to carry her to the cabin but Claire came rushing at them. He smiled and set Morgan down. Claire jumped into her arms. Morgan flinched from the pain in her shoulder but she ignored it, squeezing Claire tight. "Morgan I'm so happy they got you back." Claire said, squeezing her. "I was so scared I wouldn't see you again." Claire whispered. Morgan pulled back slightly to see Claire's face. She cupped her hands around her fscr. "Claire bear, there isn't a force on this earth that could keep me from you. Ok?" Morgan said to her. Claire buried her face into Morgan hugging her again . Cliare pulled
Morgan stood in front of the kitchen sink staring out the window. She watched the waves crash on the cliffs below. Gavin had built a house for them overlooking the sea. Morgan was in a bit of trance watching the waves break. A loud noise coming down the stairs drew her attention. Gavin dropped his baggage loudly on the wooden floor. Morgan sighed slightly. Gavin smiled brightly to her and closed the distances between. His hand wrapped around her waist as he pulled her back against him. She leaned into him, sighing happily. He leaned down into her neck placing small kisses in the crease of it. “I have a few minutes.”He mumbled into her skin. She giggled slightly and turned in his arms. Her hand went to his cheek. He leaned into her touch. “Aye but you need those minutes to get your butt down to the ship.” She smil

Thank you for reading- S.E Dymek**** Escape: She couldn't see her hand in front of her face; heart pounding in her chest. She could feel her lungs burning inside of it. A pair of small arms clung around her neck. Hanging on for life. As she forced her legs to keep running. Run. Run. Run. The word screaming in her head. She could feel her legs getting weak. No. She couldn't stop. Branches of passing trees scratched and pulled at her skin as if they were trying to stop them. She knew it was coming and she hated herself. Something caught her foot and they fell forward.
Caught: "MORGAN!! Morgan!!!" Morgan went to jolt upright and hit her head on the wooden crate. She must have nodded off. She thought she heard- "LET GO OF ME. MORGAN!" Claire screamed. Claire- Morgan's stomach burned with dread. She tried to push the crate open. But something wasn't letting her out. "Now, now girly. Why you screaming for?" She heard a man chuckle. Morgan began to panic. She needed out now. She brought her knee up and felt it budge a little. She placed her forearm on the cover and pressed up. "DON'T TOUCH ME!" Morgan with all her strength flew he
The Captain: He stood staring at the map in front of him. They were behind at least three days. It had taken him that long to notice the original map was gone. He gripped the sides of his desk, digging his fingernails into it. He had studied the other map so much, he knew it by heart. It still made his blood boil. The word traitor echoed in his head. He traced his course on the map. They were there. He knew they had to be. He needs to catch up or take a shortcut, something. He needed to destroy him. He was going to burn his whole world. Just as he did to him. He would make the bastard watch as he did it though. Fire. He could still smell the smoke. He could still see the flames pouring out the windows when he closed his eyes. Still feel the rain hitting his skin; it's amazing how it could be raining and a fire could still be going. Sweat beaded across his for
Fire: "Close your eyes." She said to him."What?" He asked confused"I have to take my shirt off. I don't want you to see." She said, giving him a look.He sighed and shut his eyes. Morgan slowly took off her shirt, wincing at how it scraped against her wounds. She pulled the shirt around to her front covering her breast so they wouldn't show. She sat on the bed facing away from him."Ok." She whispered.He opened his eyes. He wasn't sure what he expected to see but this wasn't it. Her back was nothing but blood. He could see two large gashes that were the cause of it but it was hard to tell if there was any other damage or wounds. He dunked the cloth in the water, rung it out, and then carefully wiped her back. Morgan bit down on her lip to keep from crying out in pain. He repeated it again. Trying to just clear the blood away to see what he was dealing with. After a third pass he could finally see her back. He was shocked at it. Her back was ridd
Tour: He was still scowling when Morgan walked in carrying Claire. She had fallen asleep leaning against her as they were watching the stars. Morgan hadn't seen anything like it before. Nothing around for miles and the stars lit up the sky. Their light danced upon the ocean water. Morgan stayed in the doorway unsure of what to do. She scanned the room quickly . Then she started towards an empty space in the corner. Gavin raised an eyebrow at her as she went to set Claire on the floor. He sighed "What are you doing? Put her on the bed." "It's fine we've slept on much worse. " She whispered. "The bed." He growled She didn't argue she would be happy if Claire could sleep in a bed for once. S
