Sneak Peek: Pirates Appreciation Day

 

As you know Pirates Appreciation Day is coming up!

We’ve got some great things coming:

Aesthetics

Pirate Q&A

POTC Series Rework!

And because I’m either evil or nice … here’s a sneak peek at some of the re-work of the 3rd Pirates story.  Stories 1 & 2 are in the edits stages after being re-worked.

“I won’t insult you by asking how you’re doing.” Nico settled himself against the opposite railing.

“I feel like I’m being pulled apart.” Will ran a hand over his face. “I have moments I’m perfectly find, usually while I’m fighting or too busy to think of anything else. Other moments I don’t think I can survive.”

“We’ll get Sparrow back.”

“I know. Even if I have to find Davy Jones and roast him over a hot pit, until he lets me into his damn locker.” Will gave him a sadistic smirk. “By the way did you know he has a kid!?”

Nico had no doubt Will would carry out his threat, and he didn’t blame him. Hedgehurst doesn’t exist anymore, so he understood better than most.   He startled at the idea of Davy Jones having a child only to roll his eyes and groan.

“Jack Frost. That was what he had meant about making sure dad didn’t do anything stupid.”

“You know him … it?” Will asked with a sense of childlike curiosity. The kid had made him smile and feel hope for the first time in weeks. He wouldn’t be able to thank him enough for that.

“He’s a Sprite.”

“As in the myths? Like Sirens?”

“He said the Sirens were mermaids.”

Will stared for a moment, and then shrugged. “I rescued Elizabeth from undead pirates and my Mate is in Davy Jones’ Locker, who I might add looks like a walking squid. So you know Sprites and Mermaids … sure why not.”

“And how do you feel about Elizabeth?” Nico needed to know, especially as they had a long journey ahead.

“The Pirate in me gets it. The Vampire in me wants her dead. Most of the time the Pirate is winning.”

“So we’ll keep Tony on her as a guard.” It was good to hear Will’s chuckle. “What’s the next part of the plan?”

“Get Jack.” He straightened up, grabbing the map.

“WILL!” Elizabeth ran to him then stopped as he passed right by her.

Will walked straight to Jack, and pulled him into his arms kissing him fiercely. He knew he probably shouldn’t have, but they both needed the reconnection.  He felt the Bond settling, soothing their aching souls.

Jack stepped back, eyes dancing with mirth and passion. “How did you escape?” he asked casually as if they were the only two on the beach.

“Sea turtles.” Will answered, an old joke between them.

“Hard buggers to tame aren’t they?” Sparrow rolled his eyes, hand reaching out, wanting so much more, instead a finger rested on the hidden item under Will’s shirt.

“Kinda like you.” Will removed the key from his neck. “Is that the chest?”

“Aye, did you see ye father?” Jack asked as they moved back toward the item.

“Yes, I did.” Will nodded ignoring Elizabeth behind him. He really didn’t care what she thought of the situation. “Now that we have the heart we can kill it and free you and him.”

Jack noticed Norrington going for his sword. “Not so fast.”

He looked up at his Mate. “Jack?” Will shifted to see Norrington of all people sword drawn. He had no idea what the former commander was even doing there. He stood, moving next to Jack, hand resting on his own sword.

“I’ll be taking the key, Mister Turner.” Norrington pushed the two away from the chest. “At least now I understand why you left Port Royal.”

“I told you once before Norrington.” Will stepped closer, voice dark and menacing. “My place is between you and Jack.”
