excited about what’s to come.”
“What do you mean?” Ligia asked, a little nervously.
“What do you think he means?” Nadav snorted. “We’ve just come across an island full of women. We’re all hot-blooded men who have been at sea for far too long. We’re aiming to have some fun tonight!”
He laughed lecherously and Ira joined in. The girls exchanged a worried look, though both were appalled at the gall of the bastards. Just hope the Nitrazepam works fast!
“You took your time!” Captain Sivan called over as they neared the crowd.
“There was a lot to carry, captain,” Nadav replied, gesturing to the crates in his arms. He offered the captain the first can before the rest of the men dived in and grabbed their own.
“Do you come with it?” a salacious sailor asked Ligia as she put the crates on the ground. He was leering at her breasts as she bent over.
“No,” she replied abruptly. And you won’t be coming either!
“Leave her alone. That one’s mine!” Captain Sivan shouted over.
Ligia flushed. The captain winked at her and beckoned her over to him.
“Did any of them touch you, girl?” he asked when she ventured across.
Ligia hesitated. She now understood that the only reason he was concerned about his men not molesting her was because he wanted to do it himself. If she said no, he would continue to pursue her. If she said yes he might kill one of the men. She sighed, imagining the ruckus it would cause if she lied. On balance, she decided that these men were trigger-happy enough and there was every chance one of the girls would be hurt if there was a brawl. She shook her head.
“Good.” The captain nodded.
“May I take your plate?” Ligia was eager to get away from his ogling stare. Sivan reluctantly handed it over and she made her way through the rest of the sailors, collecting dirty dishes. It was beginning to get dark and she knew it would be easier if the girls could get all the dishes washed and put away before they lost the light altogether. She looked around at the despicable throng. The sailors were all sitting or lying on the grass while the girls picked their way among them collecting dishes and handing out cans of beer. The men made lewd comments about the women, and their hands roamed their bodies whenever they got the chance. The girls were obviously repulsed by them, but knew better than to make a scene. Ligia smiled to herself as she realized just how much the women’s views had changed. When they were Sirens they didn’t think twice about “entertaining” the disgusting rabble who wrecked their ships on the rocks. Now, the women knew the pleasure of having men who cared about them, and loved them. There was no way these women would be unfaithful to their men. Even the single girls didn’t want anything to do with the vulgar bastards, as they knew what real men could be like, and weren’t prepared to settle for anything less. And these fuckers are so much less!
“How much longer?” Sapphire whispered to Ligia as she took the dirty crocks from her. She was up to her elbows in hot water, having elected to wash the dishes rather than go anywhere near the lascivious horde.
Ligia gave her a reassuring smile. “Not long now. We’ll have to get them over to Destiny Rock soon, while they can still walk.”
“What’re you whispering about?” A gruff voice behind them made them both jump.
“Captain Sivan, is everything all right?” Ligia gave him her sweetest smile.
He took a step closer to her, swaying slightly as he did so. “You and me are gonna have some fun later,” he announced through slurred syllables.
He put an arm on her shoulder while he took another swig of his beer. He wasn’t a hideous-looking man at all. He had long, dark hair which hung around his shoulders, and big brown eyes. He had a small, neat, moustache on his upper lip, but the rest of his skin looked smooth. She was surprised he didn’t look more rugged, assuming he sailed in
