Novel & Cerita Jack Sparrow Why Is The Rum Gone

But by the time it cleared, Jasper was gone. The sound of the speedboat's engine roared through the port, growing fainter as he disappeared into the night. "Fvck," I hissed, lowering my gun. Silvio’s laugh filled my ear. "Well, at least he left with a hole in his arm. That’s a win." I ran my hand through my hair and let out a sharp breath. "Yeah. But next time, he won’t be so lucky."

However, I could not disagree that the other things had crossed my mind. “I was a warrior in my pack or was training to become one…old habits die hard I guess” I replied as he slowly began moving both of us through the dance floor. My eyes sought Jasper and I saw him return to the same pillar, a glass in his hand. ‘Why was he drinking?’ He downed one glass and went to the counter to get another glass. I stared worriedly at him. Wasn’t he the one who had told me to not drink or eat anything in the ball? And he himself had forgotten it.

Now, the silence in my head is deafening. There is no Maria to check on. Elena has her safe in the villa on the other side of Malta. There are no Grecos. There are no contracts. There is just the hum of the engines and the three men who own my soul. "Drink," Spadino says. I open my eyes. He is holding a glass of champagne. It is the good stuff—vintage, golden, bubbling. I take it. I drink. It tastes of stars. "To the escape," Spadino toasts, clinking his glass against mine.

"I didn’t sell you, Dante. I never touched that money. I spent five years working myself raw in a kitchen just to buy milk for our son. I saved you because I’m a fool. Because I still see the good in you." Dante reached out and brushed hair from her forehead, gentle for once. "I want to believe you," he said. "But the smoke in my head tells me you’re just a dream." An hour later, they reached the boatyard. The place felt abandoned, ghosts of old ships rusting in the drizzle, the air thick with oil and salt. Raven was first out, gun ready. Marcus helped Dante out—he could barely stand. June followed, clutching the secret book.

Because of what he did, Savannah seemed to have pulled out a thorn. It faced the man again. She wants to know and get to know her companion, so she doesn't worry. "Why did you ride on the Cruise Ship?" She asked. Phantom knew Savannah would ask this. The man drank from a bamboo glass made by Savannah. He had no choice but to drink it. They had no other necessities available on this island.

“Rico’s operations.” My entire body went still instantly. “What about them?” Jack swallowed visibly before speaking again. “They’re gone.” Silence. Then grandfather frowned slightly. “Gone?” Jack nodded quickly. “Every single Rico property across America burned down this morning.” My stomach dropped immediately. What? “The ports.” “The warehouses.” “The underground labs.” “The weapon sites.” Jack looked genuinely disturbed now. “All destroyed.” For a second my brain genuinely stopped processing properly. Then one specific thought hit me immediately. Lex.

Jack said firmly before taking his phone out of his phone. "Done," he stated looking at Sparrow. A Cheshire cat grin smudged Sparrow's face. "Thank you for giving me a million dollars," he winked and scampered away before Jack could say a word. Jack's face contorted with anger and he dashed after Sparrow. Sparrow had fooled him into sending the money twice. "Shoot!" I almost forgot what had made me come out. If I didn't hurry to the restroom right away then I might end up peeing my pants.

Without warning, it was like an electric current quickly crept through my body. “Mmm, you’re delicious, my love," Jasper spoke to me in a whisper, smiled, and then turned his back on me. Then the water in a bottle was found again. “Water, my love?” I took a deep breath and turned my eyes away from him right away. The water from the bottle helped my sore throat after what Jasper did. “Wait...” Again, Jasper stopped my hand to get water. “W-why?” I’m nervous. “You used up all the water. Also, I want to drink.” Jasper spoke.

Lost in my own thoughts, I hadn’t even realized he had moved from his position. “No!” I said, waving my hands in front of me. Truth is, I hadn’t touched a drink since we found out the bottle of rum had been spiked and it sent me off the rails, thinking Lamia was cheating on me, causing me to see things that weren’t there. I still couldn’t explain how I had felt, pushing her away like I did, throwing accusations at her, and then leaving.

“Jasper didn't give me the clear details but he managed to give me a helpful rundown. His father was a cruel businessman, not the kind you admire and model your life after. He only cared about power and about winning. And he had the power in spades; he even had far reaching influence in government. All in all, he wasn't somebody that you would want to double cross. He didn't care who he crushed along the way.” Luna listened in silence, her face devoid of emotions. Sebastian continued. “Then, one day, he just… disappeared. No warning, no goodbyes. He walked out on his family and never returned.” A heavy silence filled the room. Luna finally broke it. “We all have something to gain from this.
