“Up, or I will slit your throat. Don’t you dare fuck up and disobey when you’re this close to freedom.”
Freedom!? On a ship full of men?
His legs barely worked as she tugged him into the hall and closed the door. A folding lattice screen blocked one end of the hallway. It was dark in the hall, and nobody could see that way, but he had a good view of the deck which was brightly lit.
Some of the women were entirely naked, and they’d pasted little fake jewels and gems to their bodies. Some had flimsy bits of gauzy fabric and shiny silk carefully pinned and draped to cover the important bits. Captain Kalani was naked, and swirls of gold paint ran all over her brown skin. Arced lines on her hips seemed to point to a certain area, and she’d dusted her nipples in gold. A woman wearing a sheath of see-through lace played her violin while another draped in scanty silk played the flute and danced. The bells tied to her ankles tinkled.
“This is what every man hopes to find after weeks on the open sea. Merriment and willing arms.” A man in a yellow linen shirt with a matching sash came toward Captain Kalani who immediately snaked her arms around his neck before she whispered in his ear.
Whatever she said, it made the other man, probably a Captain, yell to his men. Others came into view, and Aspen started to shake as the woman holding him down on his knees put her dagger to his neck.
“One sound,” she whispered.
The female sailors went for the men like cats after a string. One woman must have jumped from the rigging, and she landed on the deck to crouch. Every inch of her naked blue skin had been dusted in silver, and she went for the nearest man who immediately reached between her legs.
Aspen had been a street whore and a pleasure slave, but he’d never seen so much sexual activity at once. Two male sailors either weren’t interested in women, or they liked each other better since they were already fucking against the wall of the Captain’s cabin. Most of the men ended up entirely naked as the ladies worked their charms. One was on her knees as she sucked on a man’s cock and fingered his asshole. Captain Kalani and the other guy had disappeared.
What was the point of all this sex and making him watch?
One of the men suddenly shouted as his woman stabbed him in the throat with a tiny knife. Where she had concealed that was a mystery. The rest of the women seemed to snap, and the men were too slow to react. They had been too busy thinking with the wrong head the moment they saw a floating whore house that seemed to promise merriment.
Two of the pirates burst from the Captain’s cabin with weapons. One woman didn’t even need a weapon as she kneed her victim and punched him in the throat while adding a good dose of her lightning magic. He dropped like a sack of potatoes.
The dagger pressed into Aspen’s throat as the woman tore their way through the men with brutal efficiency. Blood gushed, noses were broken, burns blossomed, and one man screamed and twisted on the deck as a woman held him by the balls and sent lightning through his body. Another man was hit with a ball of blue energy. He slipped on someone's blood and busted his head on the deck. Another to the side that Aspen couldn’t see screamed in agony.
The winged woman came into view with the naked male Captain. Her wings struggled and flapped as he fought against her. They fell to the deck, and she sprung away, leaving him in a heap.
Captain Kalani came into view. “We’ll kill your brother if you move.”
Aspen was suddenly yanked closer to the screen by the woman holding him.
“You don’t have my brother, you fucking bitch. He’s been gone. Deserted.”
“He’s been gone because we have him.”
Captain Kalani entered the hall and pushed the screen in. The man froze and squinted into the dark at Aspen’s figure. At this distance, and with the poor light, Aspen realized he could have been anyone. He was forced forward a few more inches.
“Dariny?”
Aspen couldn’t help his squeal when the dagger cut his skin. It was barely a nick, but it was terrifying enough.
“You took your men ashore about three months ago, and Nany was found dead in her inn room. The innkeeper remembered Dariny from before and knew he’d taken her up there. She’d been choked to death.”
The man gaped at her. “You-”
“Yes, we’ve had him this whole time. He squeals like a pig when we fuck his ass. A huge phallus slathered in hot pepper juice makes him squirm and beg quite nicely.”
The man bared his teeth. “You fucking whores-”
Captain Kalani waved away the insult as the other women stood by their kills. “We know what we are, but I bet you’ll deny what you are. This isn’t the first time you’ve let your men run loose. For a merchant business, you’ve got some foul bastards on your ships. I heard some particularly disturbing things about you when I started asking around.”
The man’s chest heaved as he sat up. “Let him go to the ship-”
If you tell us where the key to your lock box is, we’ll let him leave,” said Captain Kalani. “I could kill you, loot you, and have the lockbox dragged aboard, but thanks to your bragging, I know you’ve got one made of diamond and kaxon. The key would be much easier.”
“I’ll never tell you where that is.”
“Then I guess you don’t care about your brother. I certainly don't, and he deserves to suffer for what he did, but I'm willing to make a trade.”
