The door slamming behind her drew the attention of the crew. They all seemed to pause and look her way. The glare was still on her face as eyes fell on her. Several of the crew members looked away quickly and the ones still looking wished they had followed suit. Danica narrowed her eyes at them and it was chilling. The men quickly went back to their duties. She walked away from the door and began walking down the stairs. The cabin door flew open behind her.
“Dan- Captain.” Kaleb said, catching himself as Danica spun on her heels facing him, her eyes burning holes into him.
“Watch what you say.” Danica said, taking a step towards him.
“I was just, can we go talk -” Kaleb began trying to find the right thing to say but not draw attention which was already on the
Fall: Danica stood at the helm, her hands firmly on the wheel, the sun beginning to set. Jacob had come by several times to take over but she was still too annoyed with Kaleb to leave the wheel just yet, Jacob came by offering food and a quick break just before sunset and Danica threatenly chased him off. The sky was beautiful shades of red and orange with hints of pink streaks as she shifted her foot slightly. She felt awful but she told herself it was because she had been so annoyed today. Her headache and she felt shaky but she pushed it to the back of her mind, enjoying the sun set. “Captain, I know it's not my place but you really should switch out. I think you might hold the record for staying at the helm the longest.” Adam said coming up behind her with a small smile on his face, trying to keep the mood light.
Mutiny:Screaming, loud angry screaming. Danica shifted in the bed. She couldn't have been asleep long. Checking her surroundings he realized that Kaleb was gone. She stood quickly heading to the cabin door. The yelling becomes louder and clearer.“She's not fit to be captain!” An angry slur came across.“She is Gavin and Morgan’s daughter, it hers right.” Jacob’s voice said calmly.“She has no fucking right beiing on this ship, never mind commanding it.” The voice yelled back.“Watch your fucking mouth.” Kaleb said back.“Listen boy, I'll run my sword through your gut so fast you won't even know you're dead t
Kiss: Ariadne slammed the last bit of paper down. She had redone all current contracts. She was exhausted and had an awful headache. She didn't know when the last time she ate was. She heard a soft knock at the door of the office. She looked at it wondering who it could be, Orion would just walk in. “Come in.” She called to the door, she was holding her head in her hands. The door opened slowly and Patrick popped his head in. He smiled at her as he pushed the door open the rest of the way. He then held up a plate of food and a glass to her. She smiled widely at him. Her stomach grumbled immediately seeing the plate. “You’ve been here so long, I've left and came back twice. I thought you might be hungry.” He smiled and brought the plate over.
*Chapter contains Sexual content*Never:Danica sighed as she walked into the captain’s cabin, her arm was throbbing. She was ignoring the best she could. She walked over to the desk and sat down. She glanced down at the piece of cloth she had tied over her wound, that was once white now bright red. She sighed again, her hand was starting to ache the pain radiating down into her finger tips. She pulled open the drawer to the right of her. Reaching, she grabbed some bandages. She frowned and she needed something to clean it with. She stood going to walk to the door.The door opened up and Kaleb walked in holding a basin of water in his hands. She frowned instantly seeing him. She went to fold her arms across her chest to emphasize how displeased she was that he was here but the pain in her arm made her wince instead.
Caught: “I can't do this anymore!”Patrick shouted, slamming his fist down onto the desk causing the various items on it to shake. His father sat on the other side of the desk staring him down. He grabbed a hold of his glass of wine that was shaking tightly. He watched Patricks shoulders move up and down as he took deep breaths trying to calm himself down. Patricks fist was still resting on the desk as he matched his father’s stare. Their eyes locked burning into each other. Not one of them budging. “What do you mean can't!” Ed shouted back at him, breaking the silence. “This,...this whole scheme. I can't do this. It's wrong.” Patrick said, throwing his arms about as he talked. “You haven't even done anything. You h
Secrets:Patrick didn't flinch hearing the noise, he was more annoyed than anything. He eyed the man standing in the doorway. He was an older man with bronze colored hair standing in the door, his hand flinching on the sword hanging from his side. His hazel eyes burned into Patrick’s. Patrick’s hand shifted from Ariadne’s waist to his hip where he kept his dagger.“Can we help you?” Patrick asked through his teeth.Ariadne hadn’t even heard the shout. She seemed confused as she shifted herself to look behind her. Her face turned several shades of red as she went to move away from patrick. Patrick held her in place, his eyes deadly locked on the man in the doorway.“Get your hands off my niece before I remove them from
The Evening Star:Ariadne closed her closet door open fiercely, she was confused and for some reason angry. Patrick had a brother? He was on the North Star? Why? Why didn't he say anything? Her stomach twisted with doubts. She grabbed several pieces of clothing mindlessly and shoved them in a bag. She grabbed a warm jacket and stood silently in her room, her thoughts racing. What if she couldn't trust him? What if he was a spy? Her Heart sank. A noise at her door withdrew her from her thoughts. She glanced to see her aunt leaning against the doorway. Her face worried.“Ari?” She asked quietly.“It's nothing Auntie, just thoughts that don't need to be addressed at this very moment. We need to save Dani.” Ariande said quietly walking to the doorway.“I think he’s a good man. There's something there I'm not sure wh
Shattered:Danica shifted slightly in her bed. She stretched searching for the warmth beside her. Her hand fell on the empty spot. It was still slightly warm from him. She opened her eyes slowly, his bare back was facing her as he was sitting on the edge of the bed. He had slipped on his pants but every muscle in his back was calling for hand to run over it. She smiled softly as she pulled the blanket around her, shifting closer to him. She reached up and slowly ran her hand down his back. He inched into her touch in response. She smiled bigger.“I thought I was going to have to wake you.” His deep voice said to her.“How about you forget I am awake and I’ll go back to sleep; then you can wake me.” She said her tone insinuating something more.
