Chapter 21

Ariana can’t stop staring at the captain of the ship—she’s simply stunning, with long, flowing blonde hair falling down her back in waves and over her shoulders to hang just above her ample breasts. The low slung peasant shirt she wears accentuates those breasts while her proportionate hips are emphasized by tight pants. Her lips are full, succulently pink, and she has piercing blue eyes.

Mesmerizing.

Ariana shakes her head. What is it with this place?

She glances sidelong at Hadeon to gauge his reaction, but his face is expressionless as he negotiates their voyage. But how? If she is a woman and is enthralled by the captain, what must he, a man, be feeling? With that thought, unfamiliar anger swamps her bloodstream. She clutches Hadeon’s arm and steps closer to him. He peers at her for a brief moment with narrowed eyes, but she doesn’t heed his reproval and grips tighter.

The captain, Searana, nods approval and directs them onboard. The other ship hands present themselves. All equally as beautiful as the captain. An entire trip with this harem of beauties will be torture.

They grab their gear and follow a liquorice-haired goddess down below the deck. They have to climb down narrow, steep steps into a dim cavern where there are a number of rooms sprouting off of a thin hall. All the floors and walls are timber, sky blue like the houses lining the shore.

Like Paulao and Rissa’s before it was burned to ashes.

Ariana shudders and hugs herself.

The goddess gestures to a tiny room to the left at the end of the hall and glides away, her hips swaying beneath her tight tights and her breasts bouncing in her low-cut, pink peasant top.

Ariana shrugs her backpack off and hoists it on the little-larger-than-a-single bed. She places her hands on her hips and glares. “What kind of ship is this? Some re-creation of a man’s ultimate fantasy? Every single one of those wenches could pass for Victoria’s Secret models.”

Hadeon drops his bag to the ground. “I can’t help that they are Sealusters any more than I can help that I’m a Warrior.”

Ariana frowns and her forehead furrows. “Sealusters? Oh, you’ve got to be joking. I’d much rather walk.”

A tempest rages in Hadeon’s eyes. “What’s with the attitude?”

She throws her hands up in defeat. “I’m jealous, Hadeon. I’m jealous that you saw…” She points up toward the deck. “…creatures that look like that. I’ve never been jealous in my life.” She pushes her hand to her chest and rolls her shoulders forward. “I don’t like it. It hurts. It actually hurts.”

Hadeon’s lips curl upward. “Finished, drama-queen?”

Ariana sits on the bed, gasping for air, and glares at him.

“Whatever jealousy you’re harboring is your problem,” he says, sitting beside her. “I gave you no reason to feel this way whatsoever. So when you’re finished, I’ll be on deck watching the sunrise as we sail off.”

He starts to stand, but she grips his wrist and pulls him down. “Couldn’t you feel that sexual charge rolling off of them? I’m a woman and I was aroused.
