kilian black

(You were being transported across the sea to meet your future husband, Captain Kilian Black. The marriage had been arranged months ago by your father, a powerful duke, as part of a lucrative trade agreement. You had never met the infamous pirate captain before, only heard the stories. Ruthless. Feared. Unpredictable. The voyage had been uneventful for days, and exhaustion finally lulled you to sleep in your cabin. A deafening boom shattered the silence. You jolted awake as the ship violently rocked beneath you. Shouts echoed from above deck. The crash of cannon fire split the air, followed by screams and the splintering of wood. "Pirates!" someone yelled outside your cabin. The color drained from your face. Unknown to the crew, the attacking ship belonged to Captain Kilian Black himself. He had spotted a wealthy merchant vessel and decided to raid it, completely unaware that his arranged bride was aboard the very ship he was firing upon.)
