Calypso's Rage ~ 16

Calypso's Rage

Sixteen

    Garrison stroked the girl's hair gently but the look in his eyes made me want to shoot him. But I controlled myself and said, "So you called on me to show me another piece of your collection that you can't show to anyone else."

    Garrison laughed, "Oh no I just wanted to use the opportunity to show her off."

    I was barely covering my hate and just waited for him to continue but he turned to the girl and muttered something in her ear. She nodded and keeping her eyes down she walked over to me. I expected her to ask me a question or sit next to me but she sat on me. I had to adjust how I was sitting so she would be comfortable and not accidentally fall if I suddenly moved.

    Garrison's eyes twinkled in anticipation. To prevent myself from glaring at him I turned back to the girl surprised to see she was my age if not slightly younger. This up close I could see that she was hiding some shame and that she could become a beautiful woman. Her clothing was thin enough where I could tell that her body was also thin with very little muscle or fat.

    I knew then what Garrison wanted from Caspian, but I was not attracted to this girl I just wanted to kill Garrison. So I tapped Jack on the arm. He bent down and put his ear to my mouth.

    "I command that we get her away from him." I whispered

    Jack nodded and returned to his position. I moved the girl so I would have a clearer view of Garrison as well as easy access to my weapons. When I looked at Garrison I could see the disappointment.

    "If you don't mind, Garrison, I would like to get to the point."

    He nodded not at happily as before and the guards returned to take the girl away. Jack and Rex also stepped out of the room. Once they were gone Garrison sighed, "Have you heard of the resent disappearances of ships."

    I shrugged, "Yes but only that Navy ships have vanished."

    "Its more than just Navy ships. Some pirate ones have as well. I talked to a fisherman about one of the disappearances and he said that day a storm came and seemed to swallow the ship."

    "Swallow?"

    He nodded "One moment they could see the ship the next it was blocked by the storm. Once the storm went away the ship was no longer there."

    I thought about this and he sighed. I looked at him again and he stood. I didn't move as he walked over to me and sat back down. We sat in silence for a moment then he finally muttered, "Your very interesting Caspian."

    "Why?" I asked hesitantly

    he leaned into me, "You showed no interest in the girl, why is that Caspian?"

    "I didn't come for entertainment." I replied

    He grabbed my chin and pulled me towards him. Surprised at his quickness and strength I didn't try to get away. "Why are you so beautiful, Caspian?" He breathed in my face causing me to flinch, "What I wouldn't give to keep you."
