They made their living by attacking Spanish ships and the occasional ship from France. The Spanish were their favorite targets, though. Those merchants usually had gold and fine wares that were easily sold at market and the ships were sturdy and easy to sell. Plus, they occasionally held passengers and some of those were easy to sell.
About once every couple of weeks, a Spanish merchant ship would disappear from the tropical waters, only to reappear in the company of the Bedeviled at Bitter End. The officers and crew of the Bedeviled were becoming rich by attacking and claiming these heavily laden ships.
Two weeks after selling the four females at auction, the Bedeviled escorted its next captured vessel into Bitter End and offered three more beauties for sale at the auction. The black hearts dangling from their noses earned them a lot of attention from prospective buyers during the inspection period and there was active bidding during the auction. Again, Robin was pleased with the outcome.
The mayor and his wife were once again in attendance during the auction but were not bidding this time. After the final sale was completed, Robin decided to introduce herself to the couple.
"The pirate?" sputtered the mayor. "You're Blackheart?" The mayor could not believe that the beautiful, petite woman could possibly be the notorious pirate known as Blackheart.
"Aye," nodded Robin. "I am the one they call Blackheart. But my friends call me by my name: Robin."
"It's lovely to meet you, Robin," said the wife. "I am Annabelle. And this is my husband, Charles."
Robin smiled at Annabelle. The wife was even more beautiful than Robin had seen from afar. Robin liked the way that the woman let her long blonde tresses flow freely over her shoulders and down her back. The style of the day called for hair to be elaborately coiffed and plaited and piled atop the head; a look that Robin was not too fond of. She much preferred the softer, more feminine look of hair that simply flowed naturally.
Annabelle appeared to have a beautiful figure, although it was difficult to tell completely with the long flowing dress that she wore. Certainly, she had a narrow waist that gave her a nice hourglass shape. And her breasts passed Robin's test for adequacy. The woman's low-cut bodice offered an ample view of the upper swells of the generous orbs that seemed ready to escape their confinement at any moment.
Yes, she had a fine figure. Robin was sure of that. But it was the woman's face that first got her attention. It was gorgeous; stunning! Every curve and angle was perfect. Her deep blue eyes twinkled as she smiled. And the full, pouty lips were divine. Annabelle's face had an innocence about it that mixed with a sense of mischief and adventure. She had the appearance of a virginal imp.
"It's lovely to meet you also, Annabelle," replied Robin. "And you as well, Charles. I noted that the two of you purchased one of my girls at the last auction. Are you finding her pleasing?"
"Quite pleasing," replied Charles, curtly. Robin thought about probing further but Annabelle spoke up and spared her the effort.
"She's simply divine," smiled Annabelle. "She's no longer a virgin. Charles saw to that within minutes of getting her home. But she's such a lovely girl and she is trying very hard to be pleasing."
"I'm so happy to hear that,' said Robin. "I like to hear that my girls end up in good homes."
"Yes, she is in a good home," offered Annabelle. "We will care for her. The only odd thing is owning one of our fellow countrymen. We had not intended to buy an English girl."
"I don't know about her original nationality," said Robin. "But I do know that we took six females off of a Spanish merchant ship and that they were on that ship of their own free will. And, last I heard, the Spanish were our enemies."
"Yes, they are still the enemy," acknowledged Charles.
"Six females?" said Annabelle with raised eyebrows. "I only remember four at the auction."
Robin smiled. "Even pirates like to enjoy themselves. Wee kept two of them for entertainment. I let my first and second mates each select one for us to keep."
"They must be truly beautiful," remarked Annabelle. "The ones you sold were quite beautiful. I can only imagine how lovely the ones you kept are."
"There is no need to imagine," said Robin. "I would love to have the two of you visit the ship. In fact, why don't the two of you have dinner with me on the Bedeviled tonight? Then you can meet the two girls we kept."
Charles opened his mouth to decline the invitation. It would be unseemly for they mayor to be fraternizing with outlaws. But he did not speak fast enough. Annabelle enthusiastically accepted the invitation.
Several hours later, the couple boarded the vessel that was currently tied to the dock. "Barbarians!" muttered Charles under his breath as he looked around at all of the half-naked men who were on deck.
"Hush dear," whispered Annabelle. "Be nice."
The Bosun ushered the guests down to the officer's dining room where they were met by Robin, Isabelle and Rachel.
"Oh my," said Charles, bemused, as he saw the three women. Each was wearing an elegant long dress which was a pleasant change for them. They liked their slacks and blouses and they liked their nudity, but it was nice to be able to dress up for a change.
Robin laughed at Charles' reaction. "We clean up pretty well."
"Splendidly," smiled Annabelle with a twinkle in her eye. She gave Robin a welcoming hug and a kiss on the cheek. "You are all so beautiful."
Robin made the introductions and then they sat down for dinner. Carla and Abigail served the meal and even they were wearing dresses. It was the first time that either of them had worn clothes since being captured. Abigail was completely bald, having been shorn only a little over a week earlier.
It was a lovely evening. At least it was for Annabelle and the three officers. Charles was still uneasy about being in the company of pirates. But he was enjoying the view. He was seated with four beautiful women and was being served by two strikingly lovely slaves. Even the bald Abigail was very enticing to him. There was something very erotic about the contradiction between the hairless head and the full breasts that filled out her bodice so nicely. At least the evening was not a total loss for him.
At the end of the meal, they said their goodbyes. Robin invited them to return any time and Annabelle assured her that they would.
Chapter 5 – Bedazzled
Annabelle became a frequent visitor to the Bedeviled whenever it was in port. Charles tried to persuade her not to go but she argued that he was being ridiculous. He eventually forbade her from visiting the pirates. She simply ignored him.
She found it thrilling to be around the infamous pirates. She started tingling as soon as she heard that they were in port again and she showed up to the dock as soon as she could without appearing overly anxious.
She found the three officers to be exciting contradictions. Each of them was beautiful and elegant and appeared to be kind and loving. But she also knew from the stories that circulated through the city that they could be cruel and ruthless when they wanted to be.
After her first solo visit, she changed her attire. She had come in one of her normal long dresses for that first visit. But, on all subsequent visits, she opted for slacks and a frilled blouse. That was what her pirate friends always seemed to wear.
Even when they were not in port, Annabelle was thrilled by the pirates. She spent many long hours fantasizing about her new friends. In some of her fantasies, she was a pirate and she imagined herself swinging from the yardarm with a sword in hand as she leapt onto the deck of another ship. In other daydreams, she was their captive and she was kept as a slave sister to the beautiful Abigail and Carla. One time, she even fantasized about wearing a black heart from her nose and being sold at auction. Frequently, she would masturbate as she daydreamed and always had powerful orgasms.
