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.

Chapter 16: A new arrival at sea.

“Sails ahoy!” the call from the crow master resounded from the main mast four days later. Sails appeared on the horizon, coming closer with each passing hour.

Rosa-Lee was excited about the prospect of seeing another ship. Maybe she could send a word or get some help. When she ran onto the deck, the ship, named the Heerengardt was closer, and she saw the ensign of the D.E.I.C. fluttering in the soft wind. The Heerengardt was much larger in build carrying two hundred soldiers and crew, canons, merchandise and coins than the Contra O Vento, a frigate built for speed and manoeuvrability with only eighty crew members.

Roberto and his men’s faces were tense as they scurried around to change the flags from pirate to her father’s crest ensign.

“They want permission to come on board,” the crow master yelled down.

“They can come,” Roberto yelled back, and he signalled back with the burgee.
