"Hmmm…" I moaned with closed eyes as Jacob continued to kiss me. At first, he was just teasing me… but passionately still. He brushed his lips on mine gently then smiled and chuckled as he waited patiently on how my lips would respond.

When I gave in, I felt his lips pressed on mine more. When he did that, I immediately became weak at the knees. His hand around my waist tightened to support me. His other hand went straight up to the side of my face to pull me closer as he parted my lips. His tongue began its invasion and oh my goodness he tasted delicious!

I gasped and made a throaty sound. I was not even aware I could create such sounds! Because of that, I felt him pull back and loosened his grip on me. But my whole body protested. I did not want the tingling sensation to stop. Nor do I want the fluttering in my stomach to cease. For all its worth, I desire him! I thirst for him! So, I groaned to show him that I disapproved of him stopping. Then with my arms, I pulled him towards me. I pressed my body against him so he knows that I want him to continue.

Jacob chuckled and yielded… and OH GOD, he yielded! Because I felt him kiss me more fervently. His kisses seared into the depths of my being, penetrated into my soul and I felt my mind explode. His hand began to travel on my lower back and he pressed me to him some more. My blood boiled. I could feel he was beginning to feel possessive but we needed air to breathe so for a short while we parted.

"God, Darling!" he gasped. "You… you... taste so sweet," he said and kissed me again.

"Jacob…" was all I could say in between gasps and kisses.

I was not in control of my body any longer and heaven knows I already succumbed to whatever powers Jacob has. He can have me. He can consume me. I do not care. I want him. I hunger for him and my hunger needed to be satisfied or else I would not survive. And maybe… just maybe he felt the same way too because he did not want to let me go.

"CAPTAIN!!!" It was Sandlot's voice. There was an urgency in his call.

Jacob groaned but continued to kiss me.

"CAPTAIN!!!" Sandlot again and this time he was banging on the door.

I pushed Jacob gently so I could speak. "It's Sandlot," I whispered, trying to grasp the self-control that deserted my mind.

"So?" he replied. His voice still sounded intoxicated and his eyes still frenzied. He kissed me again and I could not help but respond.

"Oh, Jacob!" I gasped softly before he deepened our kiss once again and held me tightly.

For a moment, brief as it may seem, we had forgotten about Sandlot and the knocking on the door. Because we were kissing again as if there was no tomorrow. He felt so wonderful and my consciousness was getting lost once more. But, Sandlot was not one to be ignored because he continued.

"CAPTAIN! YOU HAVE TO SEE THIS QUICK!" He banged on the door. This time, louder!

Jacob let go of my lips and hissed. "I'm going to kill him," he told me as he rested his forehead on mine.

It was my turn to chuckle this time. "You should see what he needs," I said, trying to catch my breath.

He gave me a quick kiss before he opened the door halfway. "What do you need?" he asked Sandlot. He made sure that I was not seen.

I heard Sandlot's serious voice after, "Something's strange, Captain. You have to see this."

There was an eerie silence after. Jacob took hold of my hand and together we came out of his room. The atmosphere was filled with fog. But the pirates were all cognizable. All eyes were on us. Neville and Paco gave me a knowing smile.

"Finally," I heard Puma say, which made the rest of the crew chuckle. I blushed.

But their teasing was put on a hold by Jacob's words. He was studying a shadow in the distance intently. "Are you armed?" he asked me but enough for the crew to hear.

I shook my head.

"Go get your weapons," he told me right away and looked at the crew. "Get ready for an attack!" he ordered.

I quickly went to my room and took all of my weapons. Then, I felt Labyrinth rocked wildly. There was an explosion after. Then, I heard battle cries and evil cackles. I rolled my eyes. Why do these things need to happen right now? Jacob and I just barely reconciled! Don't I deserve to enjoy more sweet moments with him? Then, there was another explosion!

"Oh my goodness! Really?" I could not help but grumble as I regained my balance.

I was about to open the door after I got ready but Jacob was already there. He gave me a quick check before saying, "We need to abandon ship."

"Why?" I asked but he took hold of my hand and dragged me out.

What I saw was beyond my imagination. The fog became thicker. And Labyrinth was being taken over by mysterious beings. Their faces were white as snow. They were transparent as if they did not possess physical bodies. But, they were attacking with such speed and fervor, and my crew mates were fighting back. Lowen shot at one of them but the bullet just went through.

"ABANDON SHIP!" Jacob called out loud.

I looked at one of them as we rowed away. He was watching us escape. He grinned at me deviously. He looked like a pirate captain: the perfect archetype. He was the exact copy of what I was told pirates look like-- hooked hand, yellow toothed, disgusting, frightening, and evil. However, what's worse is he looked like he was gliding in air... as if... floating. I felt a chill that ran up my spine as I came to a realization of what they were.

I turned to Jacob who was watching me intently as he rowed the boat away from Labyrinth. I swallowed hard and gazed at him. I knew he could see the fear in my eyes.

"Were they… were they…. were they ghosts?" I asked.

Jacob gave me a faint smile and nodded, "Yes they were."

I gawked in fear and the ghost pirate captain probably realized it because I heard his laughter thundered and echoed in the foggy morning sky. UGH!!! I hate mythical beings!
