Terms and Conditions....

-Not the end of the world. The suggestion brought a torrent of tears between the roaring laughter. - You like the girl.

Richard was going to say quite clearly that it wasn't true. Maybe it was possible to balance a life in the Navy and keep a wife... He could have the satisfaction of having the girl in his bed without having to worry about anything at all. How could she do that? And right after she gets rid of that creature?

-There are pirates in town! Valerius' guards...Muir's troops. Did you miss someone on the list?

-And you always faced them. The girl is used to the life of a ship. She always sailed with old Will. He knows how to wield swords and pistols. She can take care of herself.

Richard rolled his eyes helplessly.

-Mike, the girl....she has no intention of getting married. Have you heard what she says about weddings? She is independent. She makes her decisions. - He revealed the shock.

Michael nodded.

-The independent lady. - Michael agreed. - And you never saw the rest. Can you believe Cassie thought about opening a school to teach children how to read and write? She thought about leaving the Armada in time and...

-Compassion. I'm lost!

Michael arched his brow, amused.

- Totally, my brother. No one can convince Cassie otherwise.

Richard didn't even dare to think of another night at the cabin. He should have limits for a woman to tease a poor man the way she did. Rays! She was his wife. She had all the rights. Oh, it was an ordeal.

Simple trades. It was the duel of will he didn't intend to lose. Absolute abstinence. Even the little wild jaguar says yes.

-Rick, how are you? - He wanted to know with some remorse. - You know, it's even fun. See you two with stubbornness.

Richard clenched his fists in irritation. Of course, she was going to get married. And with him. It was non-negotiable.

Michael sighed, shaking his head.

- A bad mood could kill him without a doubt. He could very easily declare war on women. Or from what I've heard redheads in particular. And Gaia? He's even decided to leave the pack.

Richard shook his head regretfully. He needed to replenish the ship's water. He needed to supply the ship... The list of expenses grew... he needed a lucrative activity fast to support a family.

- If I survive one more night...

Michael stared at him in astonishment.

-The girl then decided to steal the virtue of our captain! You're lost, Rick. You can demand of her father that she... You look like a damsel in distress here. Need to be rescued captain?

Richard didn't agree as he grumbled angrily. Cassie was little more than a child. He could handle her. Stubborn. Stubborn. Stubborn. Damn stubborn woman! He was older and more experienced. The girl seemed determined to seduce him. And make him burn in hell. Did he have a hard time giving in?

Anyway, she would have to make sure before Gaia was able to withstand a trip if need be. Hell! How do explain all that?

-We'll meet you in Corsairs Bay! - He agreed with a sigh, and his gaze roamed the camp looking for the girl. And he still needed to convince all the council that.....

Where the hell was Cassie?

- She went back to the cabin. - Michael explained. - Give it up, Rick. This is a battle you will not win. Hear my words.

Richard groaned in agony.

-Of course, I can. Do you doubt I can't?

Michael's warning must have been taken seriously. Richard decided for himself as he returned to his cabin.

Cassie looked up at him, drawing another groan from him. She... Looked at the basket of tidy sweets. The unfortunate woman wouldn't have the audacity to... Oh, him. go.

He sighed knowing it would be another sleepless night. She was wearing one of his shirts. Her vision was dazzling with her slender legs visible over the thin fabric that barely concealed anything.

-At least this time you didn't decide to mess with my weapons! - The comment came low and the hoarse voice surprised him. - Are you wearing one of my shirts?

She smiled in agreement and ran to throw herself into his arms.

-It has your scent. - She commented simply. - Did you see how nice this time I was and didn't mess with your things?

Richard said nothing, looking around the room in complete disarray. He took a deep breath feeling the kisses she left on his skin.

-Are you determined to seduce me? - I wanted to know resigned.- No, if it's that difficult...

Cassie managed a dazzling smile.

-Is a man so hard to please that a woman has to force him? she asked teasingly. - We can discuss the matter of marriage and...

Richard cursed as he stumbled to the bed and laid the girl down, realizing with surprise that her hands on his neck were bringing him along.

-I have no intention of getting a woman... other than my wife! - he warned him decidedly.

It was hell. The girl accommodated herself very naturally and provocatively.

-Isn't it a wonder then?

-Didn't hear the whole sentence!

-I already explained to you that I have no intention of getting married. Who knows I could... Have you ever imagined a fast ship under the command of a woman?

Richard stopped long enough to admire her. Heavens! She could only be kidding.

-This is absurd, girl! - The comment brought an expression of displeasure on the girl. - Pregnant? Do you want to work in that state?

-And why not?

With agility that took the man completely by surprise, Cassie rolled over to him and sat on his lap without the slightest bit of shyness.

-And why not, captain? - returned the provocation.

Richard grunted through his teeth. The girl fit perfectly over him, while his fingers were playing with her pants, feeling his manhood react to her closeness. Her body enjoyed discovering that she was wearing nothing but her shirt.

- You're not serious, honey. - He was suddenly uncomfortable. It was considered an excellent marriage option for any girl of marriageable age. The realization that the girl didn't agree was starting to affect his ego.

Cassie shrugged. It was incredible to feel him in her hands. She began to tease him even more boldly, exploring curiously as her eyes lingered on him.

Richard swallowed hard. hells! The girl was opening his pants.

-Cassie...- Richard groaned low.

-Why not? It's my body. It should be my choice. - She commented.

Her hands slowly began torture that made the man wince. The back-and-forth…she began…he closed his eyes, savouring the sensation. Suddenly she was... God!

A hoarser growl escaped her throat. pulling her to seek Cassie's mouth greedily.

She delighted in allowing him to slowly penetrate her with hesitant movements. The whole situation was taken over.

-Damn, girl. You are too provocative and daring. Cassie... like this...

She was amazing. Richard closed his eyes, knowing heaven beckoned with embers from hell. He felt himself slipping inside her in tentative, inexperienced movements, moaning.

The girl learned too fast. She let it penetrate, only to pull away, teasing. She was hot and wet and ready. Just enter your body next to hers and give vent to the unhappy desire.

- Cassie! - Richard scolded gravely. - Be good. It is judgmental to provoke such a man.

-But you were the one who said you wouldn't have anything...Didn't you say you were going to continue sleeping in the separate bed?

The sight of the girl in his bed, her eyes clouded with desire, disarmed him. She was now completely naked. She had to get away from her.

-Why not? he asked shyly. - Don't you like it?

To please? Richard rolled his eyes like a convict. He pleased more than he should no doubt. He let his trembling hand run down her leg with a sigh, his fingers moving up her belly… His palms were on her hands as he began to roam her body with a heated gaze.

Cassie looked up to him in surprise, noting how his hands guided hers, touching her breasts, playing with her sensitive nipples. Her brief surprise was stark as they cupped her breasts, Richard's fingers caressing. She closed her eyes with pleasure, writhing at the low moans she let out.

- Just like that, my sweet.

Richard sighed as he guided her hands lower, sliding between her legs, and then she faced him with difficulty.

-Rick!

-You are simply a surprise. His eyes were blazing and he let go of her hand. - Continues.

Which? It was... it was...

She was caressing herself before his eyes and touching herself intimately. She should maintain some modesty. Her hands didn't have the same heat as his. A low, frustrated groan surprised her. It wasn't the same. She preferred him.

-Would you rather I make my beautiful?

-Yea.

Her hands came back over them, continuing a slow exploration. The caresses were faster, circular and slippery… She twitched… with a louder moan.

-Continues. Or let's start all over again. - Richard warned breathlessly. Her fingers penetrated her in a maddening rhythm, forcing, filling and caressing intimately. - It's such a stunning sight.

Cassie was undecided. He played, testing, pressing and forcing... Gosh! She felt herself tensing in every part of her body with his hand on her body. She experienced her first orgasm with the teasing invasion. Another frustrated moan escaped her lips, wanting more.

-Rick, please...

-I like to see you so full of desire. He smiled, his crotch even tighter as he settled between her legs. He continued to explore her with complete intimacy, penetrating her, and delighting in the girl touching herself for him.

-Let's negotiate and reach an agreement... I can be very tolerant. Just say you're my wife.

-No!

-I won't let you...

It was temerity. A hallucination. It demanded full control and no further investment. He penetrated the woman enough to pull away and come back. She was... Dammit! She was hot. She could see the girl begin to move her hips impatiently, looking for him and reaching out to meet her. And she walked away. He knew she was ready...

-Really? - Cassie glared at him. - That's a tremendous low blow.

-Oh, Cassie. His breath was a perfect match to her panting breath. - That, honey. So. Just carry on. I want to see her like this touching herself for me. Let's make it better. Hold on a little longer. you will learn to control it and you will discover that it tastes much better.

All it took was a stronger thrust. With all the strength of will he possessed, he pulled away from her, kneeling between her legs, his hand touching her rigid cock as he entered her again.

-Not like this. Rick! - Cassie complained in disgust.

He returned to invest a little more in the depths of her body with his fingers with rhythm.

-So! So! Just feel, my beautiful. I want to see it fall apart in my hands. You are mine alone. -A roar came out of him.

She was going to protest indignantly. His stronger, penetrating and intense caresses caused new spasms amid the delicious torture. She realized smugly he snuggled her under him starting the light thrusts in her body that made her dizzy.

-There...- she was falling in a dizzying wave, everything intensifying in his hands. Everything spun and focused...

-That's right. Now! he growled, letting himself relax, spilling into her thighs, before collapsing a groan on top of her. God, Cassie! You decide to drive me crazy...
