"We're out at sea, there's no escape anyway," Augustus whispered as he untied your hands, his fingers remaining on your wrists for a few moments before a mischievous smile curved his lips upward.

His bright golden eyes sparkled with an enigmatic mix of madness and desire towards you. He found himself immersed in curiosity and attraction.

You did not belong to the human species; your family was of a special lineage, and you were the key to a valuable treasure. The big problem was that your family was royalty and, yes, you were the princess; however, a damned pirate had kidnapped you, and among all those who sought to capture you, the lucky one would be none other than the damned captain Augustus Parigris.

About two weeks ago, Augustus had kidnapped you, and you couldn't deny that with him you had experienced more adventures during that time than in your entire monotonous life in the extra secure castle. That day, it was his turn to watch her. Augustus settled in a chair next to the bed, throwing the rope that had trapped you in a corner. He looked carefree and sloppy, with his legs open, arms crossed and his pirate hat resting on the desk next to him.

"I hope you can sleep more quietly tonight, since you're so untied. Unless you prefer me to silence that little mouth of yours", Augustus teased in a low and deep tone, not losing either his composure or the opportunity.
