For centuries, the oceans of the world have served as a refuge for the pirates who sailed upon them, but many other dangerous creatures lurk beneath the surface and are now making themselves known. A terrible beast from ancient legends has returned and is now a plague upon the seas. The Pirate Lords are tasked with hunting down the beast, but tensions amongst them are fraught, making things more difficult, especially for Caspian and Primalia Flynn. 

They know that in order to face both threats surrounding them, they'll need help from someone who knows how to handle the larger of the two. The question is, will he be willing to take up his lance once more? And can he help them destroy the beast, or will another creature of the deep stand in their way? 

Warning: This book, while being a work of fiction, still deals with real and mature elements. There will be chapters dealing with sexual content, abuse, depression, gore, PTSD, and other topics which some might find triggering.

Between the Sea and the Sky || ATEEZ!PIRATE AU by AJGrahamWrites

Stories of Captain Hongjoong and his crew of misfits have been circling the Aithelon kingdom for years - stories of violence, mischief, thievery, destruction - inciting fear, or sometimes curiosity, within the citizens. Twenty-four year old Ari Rothchester is part of the latter group, intrigued by the adventures Hongjoong and his crew embark on, wishing wholeheartedly she had that kind of freedom. Instead, she is betrothed to an older man as the final act of her parents hiding her very existence. But when her soon-to-be husband sets his sights on her younger sister, Evelyn, Ari unleashes magic she has kept hidden most of her life. Now deemed a dangerous enemy to the crown, Ari escapes the confines of the castle walls and runs directly into the notorious pirate captain's path. Quickly, Ari will learn if she was right to be intrigued by this band of pirates or if she should have learned to fear them instead. TWs: Violence - including blood, gore, assault, decapitation, torture. Attempted SA - the scene is brief and vaguely detailed. Child Neglect/Abuse - including physical, mental, and emotional.

You Don't Want the Crown by kullman

Betrayal. Revenge. Murder. True Love. Knights. Princesses. Druids. Pirates. Madness. Gays. Magic. Intrigue. What more could you want from this darkly funny take on faerie tales? The old king is murdered. The crown prince is missing. Who in this diverse cast of characters is to blame? Is it the king's reluctant but dutiful wife? Is it the spiteful old queen? Is it the king's illegitimate son? What about the king's suspiciously loyal man-at-arms? Read and find out. Plenty of swashbuckling, magic, sarcasm, and plot twists await in the mythical land of Ulster. Trigger/Content warning: Violence, but primarily fantasy violence. Profanity throughout. Some brief crude humor. Some conversations and circumstances may be emotionally upsetting, primarily to do with parental abuse, as well as dysphoria. A character is stated to be suicidal, suicide is discussed. A character describes post-partum depression.

Luckily, or maybe it's unfortunately, you're bought by a young, good-looking, modest Captain who knows EXACTLY who you are. But what he's going to do with that knowledge, you're not so sure. ~ You, my friend, I am proud to pronounce as the Princess of Etholira. You are currently sixteen. And you get pretty much anything you want. And you're the prettiest girl in Etholira. Sounds pretty nice, right? Well, we need something for a story. So, sorry to break it to you, but your Dad, the King, is a bit of a jerk. You're betrothed to an ugly, inconsiderate asswipe. You hate being a princess. Oh, and you've just been captured by pirates. ~ Written: mid-High School 2017 Last Edited: mid-college 2021 Rated: PG13 for sexual references and violence (contains no sexual scenes, cussing is censored)

Venture to Uncertainty (#1) by tarishannon18

It's a deadly plan, and it goes like this: First, become a crew member of the Avourienne, a pirate ship notorious for its charismatic captain and wicked ways. Second, trick the ship's cunning strategist, famous for winning every game she's ever played, into believing a delicately spun lie. Third, get close enough to their tyrant king to put a knife through him. Deadly doesn't quite describe such a plan. In fact, inconceivable may be the better word. But Archer Kingsley has a knack for such things, and he feels he's going to pull off this plan with the ease he does most everything. Perhaps he's not quite aware of the absolute hell that's about to break loose, but truthfully, it's so much better that way. Because true adventures are born from uncertainty. * Cover by xxsoteria Mature themes you may encounter in this book: - harsh language (it's a pirate book) - violence (it's a pirate book) - sexual implications (it's a PIRATE book) However, this story does not violate any of Wattpad's mature guidelines and therefore is not marked as such.
