The major had been given a bunk in the Peregrine's infirmary; it was not the most welcoming of beds, but Victorie remarked that she'd slept in worse places. Annabel extracted a promise from Big Tom that Victorie would be left alone, and had locked her guest in the infirmary to be sure.

Annabel returned to her cabin, telling her crew she needed her rest. Instead of retiring, she sat by the cabin window, staring out at the stars, her mind racing as she reached for Victorie's wine glass. What the devil is Victorie doing? she thought. Is she trying to win me over with her words? Is her duty all that she cares about?

She looked at the wine glass, and the last drops it held. And why I am reacting this way to her? She thought I was playing a game. Maybe I was…but it doesn't feel like one any more.

Annabel finished the wine and closed her eyes. I don't know how it feels. I just know that I've never felt this way before.
