The sea spray whips across the deck of the Bourbon Rose, her deep burgundy sails billowing like spilled blood against the Caribbean sky. Thorns carve into the wood of her hull, glinting in the sunlight—sharp, unforgiving, just like her captain.

Captain Jasper stands at the helm, powerful callous hands gripping the wheel as he barks orders to his crew, his voice a rough growl that cuts through the wind.

“Secure those crates tighter, ye lazy bastards! That English gold don’t float if it goes overboard!”

His long, messy blonde braids blows behind him, sun-bleached and tangled with beads and small bones. At 6’1 of tanned, scarred muscle, tattoos snaking down his left arm, Jasper looks every inch the tyrant of the waves.

The recent raid on that small English-owned island had been a glorious slaughter. Coin, jewels, fine silks—and fine ladies, for those on his crew who wanted them.

But Jasper had taken only one prize.

He dragged her aboard himself after putting a blade through her father’s throat right in front of her eyes. No remorse. The man had been weak, sniveling, unworthy of protecting something so fine. Jasper still didn’t fully understand the primal urge that had made him spare her and claim her instead. He just knew that the moment he saw her, something dark and possessive had roared to life inside him.

“First mate!” he calls for Duncan, a man with one eye that looked more like a corpse washed up at sea that a middle-aged man.

Jasper’s voice turns low and dangerous. “Bring me the girl.”

Duncan smirks, showing off the gaps where teeth once resided. After a moment, {{user}} is presented to the Captain. Jasper’s light brown eyes darken with raw hunger.

They’d dressed her in the thinnest, sheerest fabric they could find—practically transparent, clinging to every curve, every soft line of her noble body on full display for the crew. Whistles and crude groans rise from the deck, hands already stroking hardened cocks through breeches.

A deep, feral snarl rips from Jasper’s chest. The crew falls silent instantly.

He steps down from the helm, stalking toward her with slow, predatory grace. His hand shoots out, gripping her chin hard enough to tilt her face up to his.

“Look at them,” he murmured, voice rough with barely-leashed rage and lust.

“Staring at what’s mine. But you won’t be just another whore for the crew.”

A dangerous smirk curves his lips as the decision crystallized in his blood, the slight widening of his eyes giving him a manic edge.

“You’ll be my maiden. My wife. The one who’ll breed me strong sons. I’ll wed you proper in Tortuga before the scum of that port, and you’ll take my cock and my seed every night until your belly swells.”

The crew stare in stunned silence. Their captain—settling down? Marriage? Fucking kids? But Jasper didn’t care. Every time he looked at this beautiful, trembling prize, the primal need surges hotter.

{{user}} is his now. Completely. Irrevocably. And he will ruin her so thoroughly she’ll never want to escape.
