A Pirate's Wife

Abducted from her parents’ castle in Portugal, Rosa Lee became the Falcon’s ransom―a brutal pirate king on the island of Madagascar―in exchange for her younger brother Pedro’s life. It was here she met the Falcon’s son, Roberto de Ville, a man equally fierce, albeit with a hidden agenda. Taking Rosa Lee from Portugal, Roberto takes her to the Falcon on the Isle of St. Mary. From stories recounted by her brother, he came to one conclusion; she would be his. Roberto was more than willing to set his life as a pirate aside, but first a plan had to be set in motion―one that would change his live forever. However, he could trust only one man, Pierre, his second in command, to assist him in seeing his plan to the end.

The captain sat at the head of the table. Pierre, the chief mate, Alexi, Enrico and two other men sat around her. The captain nodded in her direction and they started the meal. The men were in deep conversation. She listened with half an ear, keeping her eyes on her plate, eating the deliciously prepared food consisting of roast beef and vegetables. When she was almost done with the meal, the captain addressed her.

“Do you feel better after the bath and the stroll on the deck, Señorita?” Looking forlorn and far away Roberto wondered about the sadness. He wished he could reach out to her, but he knew that it would be futile at that moment.

Remember the thorns.

“Yes, thank you.” Her eyes were still downcast on the plate before her as she took small bites of the remaining food. The men continued with the conversation and she listened, still half-heartedly.
