Ah. The feeling of a woman's warm body lying on his. This was one of Victor's favorite sensations. He closed his eyes immediately and took a moment to really enjoy it and ran his fingers through her hair softly as she laid there in silence with him. It was probably the most peaceful moment by far on the island - so much so that Vic nearly forgot that they had just opened the letter. Until, that is, Alice asked him a question.

He sighed, not at her, but at the decision he had to make. He could not let The Blackstar look weak; they already had a reputation for never backing down from a battle. But he also had to look at the bigger picture. Their crew was the smallest it had ever been, and the ship had already taken a lot of damage in the past. Plus, they would not be fighting other pirates. They'd be fighting a military. He had to talk it over with the crew to see what they thought, and then make the preparations for whatever the decision may be.

He popped his eyes open and used his fingers to lift Alice's chin so that their eyes met. "I do not know right now, Miss Rohan. Lots of thinking to do, that's for sure, but..." Victor's voice trailed off as he leaned in to kiss her again, almost more passionately than they had before. As he pulled away, he groaned with a smirk on his face as he whispered, "Why must you be such a lady?" He chuckled and closed his eyes again. "Ah, don't worry, Miss Rohan. Soon you will find that I am irresistible." He smiled as he joked before wiggling his body to a comfortable position. "Well, let us get some rest, then. I foresee a long night ahead of us."

It was true. The men wouldn't let this decision happen without a lot to say. And Vic would have to listen and consider every opinion thrown at him. But, he knew they had to act quickly before too much tension arose between the two parties.
Victor's original expression of concern turned back to a devilish one once she chose to embrace him again, sighing at how good her fragile fingers felt running through his hair. It would take restraint for him to not act on how he was feeling; he rarely ever had to stop himself. But for Alive, he understood, and he decided that his promise he made to be a gentleman while she was in his care would remain respected, for now. But that didn't mean he couldn't have his fun.

His lips moved slowly from her jaw line to her neck, and finally her collarbones until he looked back up to her. The thought of how new this was to her was driving Vic so crazy with yearning that he concluded it was probably best to stop now rather than torture himself any longer. "Alice," he said in hushed tone as he looked at her. Not quite knowing what to say, he kissed her once more gently before regaining eye contact. "I am exhausted. I would like to retire for a wee bit before continuing the day. You can join me. I promise, no funny business," he chuckled putting his hands up as if to show his innocence.

He lifted her off of him slowly before standing, walking over to the bed and laying down on his back. Vic patted his chest go signal for her to lay down with him. "Whatever my crew and I decide the best course of action is on how to deal with your father, I promise I will respect your wishes on returning home. You should not have to be away from your family any longer." He forced a smile - of course he did not want to bring her home, but she had a way of cutting through the selfishness he always knew. She deserved to be home.
Victor was taken by surprise when Alice leaned back in to kiss him again. Being oblivious to a woman's desires was not something that ever happened to him, until now. He figured all of the blushing and awkwardness was perhaps just part of her nature. Of a refined, classy woman. But he had completely misread the situation, but he wasn't not upset about the thrill he got from being startled like this.

He lightheartedly chuckled at her inexperience - but not with malicious intent - he thought it was adorable. Adorable? Who had Victor become? He never felt a soft spot for a person other than his mother and brothers a day in his life. Part of him was confused by this, but the other part of Victor decided to indulge in the moment for what it was. Whatever it was.

He embraced her with more force as he kissed her passionately, a hand lightly gripping the back of her neck as the other one moved to her back. She did not seemed to have any hesitation which made the guilt that he could have felt nonexistent. Right then, he was only focused on Alice. Her beauty. How delicate she was compared to him.

But then, guilt began to crawl up Victor's spine once again. He had so many women before. He wasn't the respectable man she had probably always dreamed about this moment with. He thought that maybe he should, for once, be the responsible one in the situation occurring in his room at the inn.

He broke away from her and looked her in the eyes sternly. "Alice, I do not want you to regret me. I am sure there are many eligible bachelors at the port dreaming of yoi. I would hate it if you were saddened when you looked back on this moment." Vic brushed a piece of hair out of her face without breaking his gaze. "I do not want you to hate me."
Ah, you're a teacher? How interesting! I'm definitely digging the story so far as well. Have a good night, get some rest!
For a fleeting moment, Victor’s mind exploded after reading the words on the parchment. This could mean many things for the crew. They could give in to his counteroffer. They could fight a battle. Or they could be chased after tirelessly until Governor Rohan got what he wanted. His port. His daughter. Alice. Oh, Alice. He looked at her; she was obviously distraught after reading the letter. Her body was nearly quivering on his, and her face expressed how confused she really was. What was there for her to be confused about? Either way, she was able to go home and be with her family, enjoying her elegant parties and fancy dresses. Unless…

At that moment, he got an urge to do something that may end badly – like with a slap in the face or a strike to the torso. But, this would truly tell him what all this tension that appeared between them really meant. He looked up to her slowly and moved a hand so that her ear rested between his thumb and the rest of his fingers, and he gently inched her closer to him. His mind was screaming all sorts of things at him: She is so young, you are a monster, she does not know what she is doing, YOU do not know what you are doing. But he continued to bring her closer to him, and then, he gently placed her lips to his and kissed her slowly. Almost immediately, a weight felt like it had been lifted off of him, and he moved his other hand up into her long, black hair as he continued.

Victor soon released her and met her gaze. “I, uh…” He wasn’t quite sure what to say. He wanted to make sure she was okay, knowing how innocent she was and not knowing what she truly thought of him. “I couldn’t help myself, Alice. I’m sorry,” he spoke in a hushed tone, but his devious facial expression contradicted what he had said. He was not used to the feeling of apologizing for his actions, especially in this nature, but he was also not used to women like Alice Rohan.
Ugh THE worst.
Cameron watched the exchange between her new companion and the boy who tried to kill him. It sparked a curiosity that may not have been settled soon, but she was okay with that, for now. Each bullet caused a quiet gasp as they were shot and hit their target with accuracy, changing her opinion of the man before her. Not a bad thing. Just unexpected.

The clamor that arose from the gun shots was loud enough to wake the dead. He was right – they needed to leave. Cameron shook her head as if to regain her focus and grabbed the gun from the limp hand on the floor. Most of the training the village offered to women was for defense, and never included a gun, but she liked the feeling of the cold metal in her hand. She ran back and scooped up her things quickly, including the box, and ran back to take a position behind him. He seemed to know his way around this city, thankfully, or she would have been dead in the alleyway right now.

After a deep breath, Cameron gave a nod to let him know she was ready and followed his lead as they slyly escaped out of the abandoned building. On high-alert, her dancing eyes attempted to observe every detail as they made their way through the dark, cold, empty streets with rain pouring down on them with relentless force. Although athletically built, she had not done much cardio in the past year, and it was showing in conjunction with the damage from the long walk. Her breath was short, but she wasn’t one to let herself seem weak, so she plodded along behind Justin, keeping her eyes open for any sign of life.

Why was she blindly following the stranger? Who knew? It was much against what the village was all about, but then again, the village no longer existed. She was running around a massive city, hiding from unknown assailants, and carrying around a silver box like life depended on it. The stupid thing was making it hard to move around, and hopefully soon, the right hands would make themselves apparent.
@freedomliveson I think you jinxed me - I had a massive rush at work haha.
“Yes, yes, of course,” Cameron agreed to him discussing the course of action that awaited them. A day away seemed like nothing now, although it would be preferable if Omega was closer. Oh well. She tried to choke down the thought of having a stranger keep watch of her while she slept, but there was no other choice, was there? The mention of the box startled her a bit, and she let out a nervous chuckle. You would think they would make the box a little less noticeable if it was some great secret. She scooted it near her and curled up into nearly a fetal position, watching the flames and quickly falling asleep.

Cameron’s body twitched a sliver as dreams of what she had seen in the last few days replayed in her mind. The sleep itself was deep, possibly due to her new circumstances or just physical exertion, but it was sleep, and boy, did she nee it. A simple dream of the rows of food grown in the village turned it to a nightmare of them burning rapidly and not being able to find an exit. Her heart rate increased, and panic set in. In a last ditch effort, she jumped into one of the walls of greenery – then BANG. It woke her up abruptly, and she began searching around the building.

Hearing a struggle close by, she looked around for Justin. Gone. Oh, Justin was in the struggle. Shit, Justin was in the struggle. At the realization, Cameron jumped up from the floor and pulled her knife out from it's holster, dashing towards the direction of the noise, until her eyes locked on him and she skidded to a halt. The sight of the man striking Justin repeatedly caused a wave of adrenaline to shoot through her. Immediately, she began running towards the assailant and launched herself onto his back, slipping an arm around his throat and squeezing as hard as she could while the other hand held the knife’s tip pointed to his jugular. After a few moments on not getting a good breath, the man dropped to his knees holding his neck and gasping for air.

Cameron looked to Justin; she didn’t know how he usually handled these types of situations. Does he kill them? Does he question them? Her eyes shot down to the man on the floor, and she cocked her head to the side observing him. Why would they barge in to an abandoned building with guns? What were they looking for? Her gaze returned to him. “Is this normal?” she nearly laughed as she caught her breath.

@freedomliveson Fine by me! I just wanted to make sure I wasn't depriving you of something. And take your time -- I'm a work RPer too, so I know how it goes haha.
