Chapter 31: Help

He then forced his lips onto mine, and the sudden touch sent a shock through me. I tried to struggle, but he pushed his body against me and pressed me up against the wall even harder. "Never thought a unicorn could be so aggressive," he chuckled and tightened his grip on my wrists. "I will break you, beautiful mare. You are mine." I closed my eyes tightly in an attempt to shield at least one of my senses from his presence. The action only allowed my body to focus more on every place he was touching me. 'He's... so close...' He kissed me again and shifted so that he was holding both my wrists in one hand above me. With his free hand, he ran it along my back and up my side as he played with my lips. I couldn't even squirm from how tight he held me and sounds escaped my throat in response to his assault.

My soft noises excited him and his kisses became rougher after every one. Our breath was heavy and he moved our bodies against each other in a mess of lust. His skin became warm to the touch and his fingers traced me desperately. As his tongue slid across mine, his hand cupped my breast which arose a moan from my mouth. I didn't want to moan for him, but it was drawn from me nevertheless. Soon our clothes were in bunches of tangles from all the movement, and Johnathan had to pull away to catch his breath. "I can't remember the last time a woman got me so hot and bothered." He laughed as he exhaled and let go of my wrists to grab a bunch of my hair. He yanked my head back and took my neck into his mouth. I tried pushing him back by the shoulders now that my hands were free, but my attempt was useless. His other hand left my breast to scoop my leg under his arm and get closer to me. I felt his erection grind into my hips as he took me by the neck and I felt so helpless. After a few more seconds, he couldn't take it anymore and released me from the wall. 

I screamed, "No!" as he threw me onto the bed and climbed on top of me. He continued kissing me and pushed my legs apart with his knee. The leaves I wore were beginning to tear under the aggressiveness of his hands and I could tell he enjoyed how delicate they were. I held my eyes closed, too afraid to open them. 'Why do things like this suddenly happen to me?! Only now there's no one to save me...'

Suddenly, the door swung open and a member of the crew entered in a hurry. "Capitan!" I opened my eyes wide and Johnathan sprung from me in a slight panic before anger set in. "Oh, for Christ's sake, you bilge rat!! Did you ever learn to knock??!!" The crewmate shuddered with nervousness at the Captain's rage before explaining himself. "Sorry, Captain. But we have a problem!" The Captain sighed with infuriation. "I'm busy right now! Can't this wait an hour or two?" My eyes widened. 'WHAT?!' My blush deepened as I thought about everything he could do to me in that amount of time.

"No, sir. This is urgent! There is plenty of wind going through the sails, but we're not moving. It's like the current around the boat completely stopped, and is holding the ship back!" The Capitan's anger quickly changed to surprise. "What?!" He looked down at me and his eyes narrowed. "Don't move. I'll be right back." He then jumped off the bed while straightening his clothes and took his hat before leaving the room.

The door locked behind them and I exhaled loudly in relief once he was gone. 'What's with all the close calls?! Well, I shouldn't get my hopes up, because he's most likely going to come back and finish what he started.' I sighed, my heart still beating out of my chest. I got sad again remembering that I was all alone and had nobody anymore.

I sank into the bed like depressed liquid and started to think about what the crew member said. 'What was the emergency again? I wasn't paying much attention over my shock of the captain touching every inch of me.' I tried to remember anyway. 'I heard that the current wasn't working. That couldn't be it, otherwise that would mean Cienar was still-' My thoughts were interrupted to a knock on the window.

I sat up and couldn't believe what I saw. I ran over to the window where Cienar was standing on some water in his siren form. "Cienar!!" I ran so fast I almost fell. I reached the window and pressed my hands against the glass. 'Am I dreaming? Is he really here and alive?' I couldn't hold back my tears seeing him. He smiled at me and put a finger to his lips telling me to be quiet. I nodded returning his smile and he bended the water he was standing on to move out of my sight and on deck. I covered my mouth losing my breath. 'I can't believe he's here! Are the others alive too?'

I then heard some ruckus outside my door and a clank of metal. The door unlocked and Arine came in looking around hurriedly. He stopped when he saw me and I ran over to him hugging him tight. "Arine!!" He hugged me back with one hand and I realized he was holding a sword in the other. I let him go and he wiped the tears from my cheek.

"Are you okay? Did he do anything to you?!" I blinked. 'He would've if he wasn't interrupted... But I can't tell Arine that or he'll kill him!' "No... I was just held captive." His expression turned to relief. "Good. I'm glad you're not hurt." I hugged him again. "I am too! I thought you were dead! Is Ikko alive as well?!" He nodded. "Yep. And as obnoxious as ever. He's on deck zapping the hell out of the pirates with his magic. It's really funny to watch!" I smiled and let him go.

Arine then took my hand and quickly led me up the stairs. When we were on deck I saw Ikko zapping the pirates like Arine said. Even though his lightning was smaller, it was still effective. I looked over and saw Cienar back in his normal form fighting some pirates with his staff. He was winning but then I saw the captain draw his sword behind Cienar, raising it up to strike.

"Cienar! Lookout!!" I yelled hoping that he would react in time. He heard me and quickly turned around to block his blow. Then a blade shot out of the bottom of his staff, and he countered the captains sword. The captain didn't faulter and continued to fight. He was better than Cienar and moved faster making him stumble back. I knew that if I just stood there and watched, Cienar would lose and the captain would kill him. Without thinking, I grabbed a sword that was sticking out of a barrel next to me and ran to help him.

Arine started to fight some more pirates and didn't notice me leave. Cienar was struggling and then the captain knocked his staff out of his hand, making him fall down. The captain was about to swing his sword to kill him, but I immediately blocked it with mine, pushing him back. Both of them were surprised to see me, but I ignored it and stood firm. "I'm not going to let you kill my friends again!" I held up the sword to him, but I really didn't know what I was doing. 'I've never sword fought before! I have no idea what to do now! But I do know that I will do anything to protect my friends.'

The captain's surprise turned into a smirk. "Alright. Let's see what you can do." He immediately swung at me and I blocked it almost tripping over my own feet. I got my balance again only for him to strike again and make me stumble. He was obviously confident by now and I was hanging on for dear life.

'I need to focus or we're all dead.' I found my strength and fought back. Cienar got up and was still speechless. Everyone else saw us and were intrigued by our fight. The captain's confidence fell more as we fought and mine grew. 'I can't believe I've lasted this long!' I struck back cutting his hand, but he didn't even flinch, and kept fighting. 'I've been able to hold my own this long, so I think it's about time I did something really stupid.'
