Let me tell you about Charlie. You see, Charlie is an adventurer and has been since she was five years old. But no one knows that or that she is a girl. All they know is that she is the best damn sea captain to sail this side of Boston. Never lost a ship, or a crewman that wanted to be saved, although there were one or two that went willingly to the sirens call. But she did not sell, to her clients with that idea in mind; she sold to them with the idea that she was an honest pirate. And that oxymoronic ideal got her more jobs than any other captain in port. It also got her into more trouble. But it was that trouble that got her the map, the one that had the sacred X on the corner of the page. Now beware of your own imagination, for it wasn't a treasure map that made Charlene Magbee become the first (to her knowledge) female, secret captain of the sea. No, it was something much more powerfully alluring that was written in small gold script next to the blood red x: Here there be dragons.

The Fire in the Wind // Book One (Complete) by PoisonedImmortal
13 parts Complete Mature
In a world of gods, pirates, and blessings, Phoenix Finch lives in a small coastal town secluded from the rest of the world. In a town that values rules, traditions, and law above all else, Phoenix has never known of anything else. When he is both rescued and kidnapped by the most fearsome pirate of them all, Nico Maheras, The West Wind, he is brought into a world so unlike his own. Scared and alone, he lashes out, and the captain lashes right back. As he is introduced to more and more of the crew, he finds that maybe, Pirates aren't as bad as he thought, and maybe the captain isn't as scary as he seems. He begins to settle into the ship, finding friendship and freedom. But when his sister is kidnapped by Redcoats for her blessing, he must take action and save her along with his new friends. But Phoenix will soon find out there is more to himself, the captain, and this story, than it seems. - - - This is the first draft of my novel, which took about a year to write. As such, this is somewhat unedited, and needs improvement. Constructive criticism is both wanted and appreciated. I hope you enjoy reading this book as much as I enjoyed writing it. Cover is mine, made with AutoDesk Sketchbook and BeFunky photo editor. - - - - Content warnings: Kidnapping, Violence, Cursing, Fighting, Torture, Death, mentions of past s*xual assault, and slavery. Please let me know if there's any other warnings that you think should be added! (I swear that makes it sound so much worse than it actually is. This is a lighthearted story about friendship, self discovery, family, and freedom.)

[COMPLETED] ***No SEX Scenes but there's one nude scene and many KISSES!!**** A lonely captain with no toleration for liars. Captain Roarke Royleen was done with London's deceptive residents. His friends, his families, everybody lied to him since birth. He vowed to never be that stupid again. So he decided to do the one thing that never betrayed him and take him far from England's shore. But the treacherousness followed him even on board the Eagle. And it is the most cunning scheme he's seen. It doesn't help that the person manipulating him is the most attractive woman he'd ever laid eyes on. She was wily, sharp-tongue, intelligent, enticing, tempting, and more! He didn't know if he should throw her overboard or lock her up in his cabin so he can have his ways with her. A girl who is too smart for her own good. Charlene Arwin's one wish is to travel the world and see for herself the different species recorded from zoologists and naturalists. What would it be like to witness the process of transmutation for oneself instead of reading it in textbooks? What would society do if they know she is more than a wallflower sitting by herself at parties? Parties that she have no interest to attend in the first place! Society would be shock to discover that Charlene is a girl with brains! Intellects! When the opportunity presented itself, Charlene decided to seize it. It didn't matter that she have to pretend to be a boy for the next two years on board the brig Eagle-a surveying and exploration voyage of the coastline of South America.

Tempest by BoozyBookworm
11 parts Complete Mature
An unlikely stow-away is caught stealing food from the galley of one notoriously known Captain Sera Wright. When the crew begins debating the fate of the young woman, will the captain go along with it? Or step in and make a decision that will change their lives forever? *Belle French from Once Upon a Time is a main contender in this work. However, it is my take on her character, and she is not the Belle from Storybrooke. She is from the Wish Realm (just go with it). This is a fanfiction based around situations and characters from the show Once Upon a Time. I do not own anything that comes from the show. Sera Wright is my character, and NO ONE has my permission to use her, or her name. **This is a collection of scenes involving two characters, Belle and an Orginal Character of my creation. Sera is mine. Steal her and I will hunt you down. Sera's crew of misfits are also mine. Steal them, and Todd will keelhaul your sorry self. ***This is a companion piece to accompany a roleplay I write with a friend. Therefore elements have been changed. It was written for fun. If you don't like same-sex couples, original characters, or non-canon events, then take a hike, because I can just about guarantee you won't like this. ****This story will contain graphic depictions of a sexual nature as well as the following: Violence, gore, medical practices and childbirth. There will be a warning at the top of each chapter that contains these, as not all of them will. As always, I want to thank anyone and everyone for reading, voting and commenting. The dedication of my readers is astounding and a true blessing. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
