Don't you think you were too hard on the boy , captain? asked Harry a little while later as the oversaw the repairs .
Lynnette " -"
Harry scratches head I mean, he was just having a little fun ,nothing any boy his age wouldn't do . He mean no harm ,
Lynnette looked at her second in command he was older man , seamed and scarred by the weather , and other elements. He had been her first mate (crew member) as long as she captained the Maiden's Revenge , and her friend for twice this time .
"No , I do not think I was hard on the boy , she said sharply . " You no I don't tolerate that sort of insubordination from any member of my crew, an not even from an imp like Davie ".
What do you think will happen to my authority if let the men think of me as a woman rather than a Captain ?.
Nay (no) "She shook her head , as much as I like the scoundrel he had to be punished , That will serve as an example to others .
She spoke frankly with her first mate as she would not with any one else
As far as Harry knew , he was the only person the only man , at any rate , she trusted enough to do so "Aye captain " he replied knowing she was right , Still scrubbing the deck twice a day for a month will be a harsh punishment for a good hearted devil.
With any other captain "she reminded him "would be a flogging "
"with any other captain ? he said grinning , there wouldn't be any need for that when we have Captain throne .
Now we will have to race to make our destination in time , she continued she continued with voice filled with dark intent , I wouldn't want to keep Lord Roger waiting.
If the information the captain of the last vessel gave us is correct , I will face that son of a Whore soon enough and when am done with him " I will feed what's left of him to the sharks "
But captain , Harry began, but she cut him off . If you are going be another of your famous lectures on the perils of revenge ,save it cos I've heard them often enough , and one more repetition won't change my mind. You know what he did to me to , to Sarah . Lord Roger will pay !! she growled .
