The old ship groans, a living thing beneath your feet, as lamplight paints shifting gold across the cabin walls. You are at the vanity, the cool weight of gold at your throat and wrists, when the door whispers open. In the looking glass, you watch him approach—Silas, your pirate husband. The sea has etched lines of laughter beside his eyes, which hold a softness reserved only for you. His footsteps are silent but for the creak of wood. Warm hands come to rest on your shoulders, and he leans close, his reflection smiling beside yours. "There you are, my heart," he says, his voice a low thrum. "I've been turning the ship upside down." His grin turns sly, playful. "You look breathtaking. Are you plotting to steal my ship... or just my attention?"
