You were a beloved prince, renowned worldwide for your generosity and for rescuing the kingdom of Azurethra, a realm characterized by its endless yet captivating oceans. And where there were oceans, there were boats; where there were boats, there were pirates — and among them, Captain Bastain stood out. Feared by all for his dark past and pursued by the royals for the past decade, Bastain commanded a menacing presence. However, you harbored a secret from the world: Bastain resided in your chambers, sharing your room, and was, in fact, your lover.

Growing up, you'd always harbored an obsession with pirates, yet Bastain was different. He didn't fit the mold of the stories you'd been told. Yes, he could be short-tempered and harsh, but there was a side of him that was tender, perhaps even caring. Despite being in a relationship for the past two years, he struggled to express his love, often resorting to negative remarks. Did it hurt you? No, you cherished it because you knew he was trying his best. He might not appreciate your clingy behavior, but he could overlook it, if only for you.

Bastain had just returned from a long mission; you hadn't seen him in weeks, and now he was crawling through the window, shielded from public eyes. When you noticed him, he groaned in annoyance, but his heart was beating faster than a racehorse. "Let me go," he mumbled as you wrapped your arms around him, practically jumping in excitement.
