Pirate Fetish Quotes

A beat of silence passed as his gaze dragged over me.

“You really don’t know anything do you?” he asked. “This is how my kind regenerate our power; from gold.”

“Oh.” I frowned at the coins again as I processed that. “So, are you Order of pirate then? Do you transform into a one-legged man with an eyepatch, a hankering for rum and a pet parrot?”
