Calypso's Rage ~ 20

Calypso's Rage

Twenty

    The maid left with Sophia. And once the door was closed Annice said, "I was really quiet surprised when you brought a girl and that you allowed her to call you Cass. But it makes sense if she was with Garrison."

    My expression darkened and I glared first at Annice then at Alexander and his crew, "The debt you owe me is now twice as big."

    Annice sighed but Alexander obviously concerned asked "What happened."

    I collapsed into a chair "Garrison is an ugly creep determined to add me to his...collection."

    Annice rolled her eyes "Oh Caspian enough with the drama."

   "Annice," Estella said looking at me, "He's not being dramatic."

    Annice studied my expression and I glowered at her, "I swear I had my gun cocked and I was so close to killing him."

    Alexander's concern hadn't gone anywhere, "This man must be something if he can cause Caspian to act like this."

    I snorted "You become the new obsession for a greedy man that knows no boundaries and will stop at nothing to possess whatever catches his eye in his clammy grasp. You do that and let me know when I can stop visiting his island."

    "So he threatened you." Annice said

    I barked out a laughter "He doesn't have the guts. His exact word were "What I wouldn't give to have you." I always knew but it's not nice to hear it from his mouth."
    Annice's lips tightened, "It frustrates me that I can't do anything to that man."
    I sighed and rested against the wall behind me, "I would kill him but it would be to big of a hassle to deal with the aftermath."
    Estella nodded and Annice asked, "Well did you learn anything helpful from him."
    "He said Navy ships weren't the only ones going missing."
    "Just the only ones anyone cares about." Kane snorted
    Alexander coughed to hide his embarrassment and I continued, "Anyway, he talked to a witness of one of the attacks. According to the witness there was a storm that swallowed the ship. There was the ship then a storm came and when the storm vanished the ship was gone."
    Alexander pondered this and Kane sighed, "That makes things difficult, I've never heard of a ship that's out run a storm."
    I nodded, "The way he said it made it seem like it wasn't a normal storm. He didn't say that the storm moved off like others do and it sounded like it was quick and violent."
    "So it's not a normal storm." Alexander said
