“You’ve had quite a lot to drink,” he whispered. “I don’t think you realize she’s twice your size.”

“And slow as a pregnant cow,” she shot back. “I whipped her last time we fought.”

A hint of amusement curled his lips. “Were you this inebriated?”

She pushed past him. “Outside,” she told Hester. “I won’t have you busting up Clem’s furniture when your fat ass smashes into it.”

Like her father, Hester’s face instantly turned red. Briar thought she’d charge her right there, but she allowed her father to herd her outside.

Briar followed, along with every person in the tavern. Nothing more exciting than a good fistfight—especially between two women.

The sun hadn’t yet set, but it had clouded up considerably. The gusting wind promised a coming storm.

“I’m gonna pound you to dust,” Hester told her. Though her father had sneered at Briar’s attire, Hester had adopted the same style of dress in her trousers and waistcoat, though Briar fancied she could make three sets for herself from the fabric involved.

“That’s what you said last time,” Briar reminded her.

They stopped in the dirt yard before the tavern. The crowd gathered on the front porch and the yard, forming a rough circle around them.

“Take ’er down, Captain Rose!” a man shouted from the crowd. It wasn’t one of her crew.

“You spread your legs for him, too?” Hester sneered. “Everyone says that’s how you got to be captain.”

“I inherited my boat,” Briar said through clenched teeth.

“Heard your cousin owns the boat. I also heard he’s real pissed that you took it.”

Briar stepped closer. “Where’d you hear that?”

“He came to the docks in Portsmouth looking for you Monday afternoon. Heard he’s offered a reward for news of your whereabouts.”
