The Blac Rise

The Captain looked down at his little captive with pure heat in his eyes. She was a vision of sex, fury, and need. He leaned down and licked a drop of his cum that was threatening to fall off her chin.

"Mmm, I can't wait to taste our combined juices, little one."

Taking out the gag from her mouth, he then knelt in front of her and toyed with her wet pussy. He was completely taken with her at this moment, and while her transgression was not forgotten, he wanted nothing more than to see her lust building for him.

Lisa struggled in her bonds at this new intrusion, filled with frustration and an annoyingly building desire to cum. The smell of the Captain permeated the air with his seed still dripping from her, and now she could not deny to herself what she wanted as her hips moved against his fingers. Lisa closed her eyes as she started to ride the feeling growing inside of her as his skilled fingers began to move with more pressure inside of her. He focused in on that one spot that felt almost too intense for her, and he groaned as he watched her bite her lip in bliss.

She was startled when she felt pressure on her forehead, and she opened her eyes to see that he was resting his forehead against hers with his eyes shut. "Do not ever scare me like that again, Lisa. Please."

Lisa barely had time to process what he said. The anger and frustration that she had felt all boiled up into one intense moment as she came on his hand, her thighs shaking, and with her head slipping onto the Captain's shoulder as she rocked back and forth. The Captain held her with one arm as a sturdy support and felt an intense need to protect this girl rise inside of him while she shuddered against him.

Lisa took a moment to regain her breath, and then cheekily wiped some of her face on the Captain's shoulder as he laughed at her effort to clean her face of his cum.

He rose with a gentle brush of his hand against her cheek and brought back a cloth to gently clean her face. As he worked on his task slowly, he apologized, "I'm sorry I took away your ability to communicate for yourself. I did not realize how much I've begun to want to protect you, and how willing you still were to end yourself. One moment."

Nathaniel untied Lisa's arms, and her ankles, which allowed her to sit, but still left her collar chained to the pole as he sat on the ground in front of her.

Taking a moment to stretch her aching arms and legs, Lisa tried to keep her composure, even as her frustration began to creep up on her again. Wait... did he just say he wanted to protect her? And didn't he say something about being scared earlier?

'I wasn't going to jump.'

And with that, Lisa crossed her arms, and looked away from the Captain, tears threatening to fall.

"What possible reason could you have had to stand on the railing like that, if not to jump?"

Lisa looked back at him angrily, 'I am very good at climbing.'

The Captain scoffed at Lisa, "What reason could a lady possibly have to learn to climb?"

'Trees. To get away from my stepmother after my father died.'

The Captain regarded Lisa. She was a strong woman who wasn't afraid to struggle with pirates. She had laughably used a mud pie to distract Toad and managed to get the promise of help from Captain Tiranius. It must have been something worth running and hiding from if this little lady had learned to climb trees, a most unencouraged pastime of the higher social classes.

"Climbing trees is much different from climbing around a ship, little one. Say I believe that you were not trying to jump, what could you have possibly wanted to do so badly?"

Lisa huffed in frustration at the Captain. 'I wanted to feel the spray from the waves breaking against the front of the ship. You had no right to punish me!'

"You should have asked!"

'I did.'

The Captain had to laugh at this point. Technically she had asked if she could go to the front of the ship. How was he to know that he would have to be clear that she could not climb over the railings... it was not something that you would expect any sane person to do. The image of her standing on the railing flashed through his mind again. She had looked so wonderfully wild and untethered from the world in that moment. Perhaps her growing up with an abusive stepmother had, in part, created this little creature before him who had a side that only wanted freedom. She was like a wild stallion that was not meant to be tamed, except she had been stuck inside tight bodices and social expectations. His mind began to work further in the future than just helping her with the Governor, but it would start with mending a few things with her first.

He signed to her 'I'm sorry, you're right.' "I should have been clearer with expectations aboard this ship. And I'm sorry I punished you the way I did, though I think we both know it ended up being less of a punishment and more of a release for both of us."

'I'm still angry.'

He chuckled, "I'd be surprised if you weren't. Now, its just about time for dinner so --."

'Wait.' She waited until she had his full attention, 'please, please don't take my hands away from me again.'

Nathaniel had been wondering how he could start mending things with Lisa past a simple apology, and this seemed like an opportune place to start.

"I promise, that unless it is absolutely necessary, or if you pose a threat to me or my men, I will not take your communication from you, Lisa."

Lisa's body seemed to relax as she let out a sigh. Her hand went to her chin and out to express her gratitude.

"Now, we need to continue your training for Veritous port."

Any relief in Lisa's composure evaporated quickly.

"It is nearly dinner time, and while you've already begun being tamed as I usually would for a girl at dinner, one of my fully trained women would be more far along."

'Can I feed myself?'

"Don't interrupt me in front of people. No. I always handfeed my girls. I did enjoy how you asked for your meal by placing your head on my lap, you can do so again, after a small time has passed enough for me to eat."

Nathaniel unhooked the chain from the pole and motioned for her to follow him.

"When a girl is fully trained, she is to sit in my lap after dinner and be my plaything, if I desire it. If I am having an important conversation, she is expected to sit on my lap quietly or she can be placed back on her knees beside me. Always keep your eyes down when others are around. Do you understand?"

He looked behind at Lisa as she trailed behind him on the deck. She looked up at him with worry, 'I understand, but what do you mean by plaything?'

"You'll see. Much of what you will need to do will be to go along with things. Tonight, we will see if you can pull this off."

He marched her down to the galley where the men had already started their meal. They hailed their captain as he walked in with the visibly shaken girl behind him. As he sat, she knelt beside him and tilted her head down to wait.

The captain was given his large portion of the food she had helped with earlier that day. She could smell the cooked rosemary on the potatoes and her mouth watered. But she waited. She needed to prove to the Captain that she could perform well enough to be let off the boat at port. Her gaze drifted to the Captain's boots. High to his calves and made of a now worn leather, they spoke of a life of hard work. Scuffs along the edges and a patch on one side but treated and cared after.

It was her stomach growling that drew her out of her musings about his boots, and she figured he must have had some of the meal by now. She gently rested her head on his lap and waited.

The Captain smirked as he felt the weight of her. She had barely waited 5 minutes, but it was fine this time since he was eager to feel her little mouth around his fingers. He drew her head away from his lap and brought a piece of meat to her mouth. She tried to latch onto it without touching his fingers, but he held fast and chuckled as she snorted and glared at him. "Tsk tsk"

She rolled her eyes and took the piece of meat into her mouth along with his fingers and used her tongue to curl around the desired morsel. That the bulge in his pants twitched did not escape her notice. Smirking, she wrapped her lips tightly around his fingers and sucked as she pulled the meat from him, and gave a silent humm as she did so.

He felt the vibrations her throat created and coupled with the visual of her lewd grasp of the meat in his fingers, he couldn't help but chuckle through a moan. She was undoing him and he doubted she even realized it.

The Captain had difficulty paying attention to his crew while Lisa suckled at his hand. It wasn't long before he ended her meal and brought her up to sit on his lap. Leaning to her ear he whispered "perform for me, little sprite, and make it believable."

Lisa wasn't sure what to do. She looked around at the men who crowded nearby and saw that many had turned their attentions toward her. Blushing, she quickly cast her eyes down at her hands in her lap.

The Captain saw her anxiety and put a gentle hand on hers. Taking one, he brought it up to his chest. "Just lean into me and breathe."

Lisa leaned into the crook of his neck and took a deep breath, and in doing so inhaled the Captain. The wood of the ship, the sweat from his work, and the spray of the sea all melded into one heady scent. It calmed her. After a few more breaths, she realized he was not rushing her, nor was he chastising her for her immediate failure to perform. A few more, and she gathered the courage to start moving her other hand up to the hair about his ears, finding some and twirling it around her finger. Shifting, she peaked up at him and saw he had a small smirk and encouraged, she began to explore his chest. Shaky fingers pushed the collar of his shirt aside and dove in, brazenly brushing skin against skin as she found amusement toying with the hair there.

It was the low growl the Captain made that made her look up at him again. His eyes bore deep into hers and held her there, her hands forgotten. He brought a weathered hand up to her neck, causing her to inhale sharply. He leaned toward her and for a moment, she thought he might kiss her.

It was the raucous laughter of the men in the galley that brought her back to reality. The Captain winked at her and gently rubbed his fingers about the base of her skull, "A good start, little sprite. You can remain here or kneel next to me, if you like."

She stayed there on his lap, leaning on him for the remainder of the evening.

**

Nathaniel woke the next morning with his little sprite beside him. She hadn't made any fuss stripping to go to bed with him and had relaxed into his hold of her within minutes. He knew she was starting to see her situation with less panic compared to when she had first been brought aboard. While she did not like posing as one of his trained girls, he saw that inch by inch she was giving into it.

He pondered how he wanted to continue with her after he had enjoyed Lisa's little explorations of his body and her timid touches after dinner. She was warming to him on her own, and while he usually found the attachments of the girls he trained more of an annoyance, this time he found it heady.

His musing was interrupted as Lisa stirred awake next to him, and he pushed off the bed to get the day started. Two days remained until they reached land, and they had work to do.

"You can wear my shirt again while we go above deck, little sprite."

**

Lisa found herself again leaning against the leg of the Captain as he took up the helm. He seemed to enjoy his mornings ensuring that the ship was running as it should. Since he seemed in a good mood, and the misunderstanding of yesterday was put aside, she wondered if she could push her luck. She tugged on his jacket lightly to get his attention.

"Yes, girl?"

'If I'm careful, can I climb to the nest to see?'

The Captain frowned, and her heart sank.

"I know you've climbed trees, but this is quite different. You could be caught up in the ropes, and there is no soft grass to fall on."

Looking up to the sails, Lisa saw that there were lower places to perch. Perhaps she could earn his trust by showing him she could climb a shorter distance with ease.

'Just to the first sail?'

He smirked at her. "Only if Toad goes with you. And if you do anything to mess with him, you'll be punished, understand?"

She rolled her eyes and agreed.

"Toad!"

"Yessir!"

"The little hell-cat wants to get caught up in my sails and while we would all enjoy the amusement of it, I want you to go up with her to make sure she doesn't harm herself."

Grumbling, Toad stalked up to the Captain and took hold of her chain.

"Only to the mainyard, Toad."

Despite the Captain's choice of companion for her, Lisa was thrilled at the chance to prove herself. Toad unhooked the chain from her, climbed up the shroud, and put out a hand to help her up. Lisa gave Toad a sly smile and quickly stepped to his side and hoisted herself up. She deftly climbed up the ropes and passed him without giving him a second glance. She didn't miss Toad's low chuckle beside her and with a grin she climbed up to the first yard. She wasn't sure of herself when she reached it, not quite used to the give of the ropes she was on and waiting to sit on the great wooden beam. Toad climbed up beside her and showed her the way of it, quickly using one rope as a hoist and then moving aside to let her try. She managed it well, and sat herself so that she could face the Captain directly and give him a cheeky wave.

**

Nathaniel had watched Lisa climb with little worry with Toad watching over her. They may have gotten off on the wrong foot, but he was the most agile in the ropes. He hadn't expected Lisa to be quite so fearless. Again, she had surprised him with her lack of propriety and this time had surprised him with her fearlessness. She was not like any other lady he had come across. She must have climbed the trees from her home quite high if she is this adept at climbing, he mused.

He let her sit up there for a time. She seemed content to just stare out into the ocean from her perch, and Toad even seemed a shade less than ornery being next to her. It wasn't until the sun began to move higher and the sails no longer gave her cover that he called them down.

Lisa practically bounded up to him while Toad tried to keep up with her to keep the chain from choking her.

'How was that?'

"You climb well, little one, better than some of my men. Let's get you down to Neo before he comes up looking for you."

Lisa happily followed him down to the kitchen where she started signing excitedly to Neo.

Nathaniel laughed, "She is telling you that she climbed up to the mainyard today and even kept herself from teasing Toad that he was slower than she was."

Neo gave Lisa an endearing grin and watched as she signed to him, even though he did not know the way of it yet.

Leaving them, Nathaniel went back up to the deck and called John over to speak with him.

"When we reach Veritous Port you and I will pay a visit to Lewton. The girl may or may not be joining us."

"And what if he wants the girl for himself?"

"I think his hatred for Governor Percy outweighs his love of feisty women."

"While that may be, he will only agree to help if there is something in this for him and we only have her."

"He may change his mind if I can offer him something more than a girl. The balance of payment owed to her guardians should keep him loyal to us."

"Is she really worth all of this?"

"She is."

**

Nathaniel knew his second would follow him until the ends of the earth. They had grown up together with Nathaniel as a Lord's son, and John the son of the stableman. The boys had been thick as thieves together, with Nathaniel sneaking him into parties and John stealing him away from the great home to explore the forests together. So Nathaniel knew when he told John that Lisa was worth it that John would believe him, even if it meant dealing with someone as unsavory as Lewton.

Wanting to continue with Lisa's training, Nathaniel only took the time he needed to prepare his cabin for her, then he had John collect her for him and bring her to him in his cabin. And there he waited for her.

**

Lisa was surprised when John came to collect her. She often spent the entirety of the afternoon with the amiable cook. She followed John nervously to the Captain's cabin, and when John opened the door to bring her in, she found herself backing into the strong arms of John before trying to dash away.

"Now now, little hell-cat, it isn't as bad as that," John encouraged as pushed her in.

But Lisa was trembling now. She had behaved, so why did the Captain hold a flogger in his hand?

She didn't even see John leave the room. She was frozen in place and ready to take flight, her focus completely on the threat before her.

"My girls are always trained to find pleasure with pain, and you will be no different. When we get to the port we are meeting with Silas Lewton. He is a man who enjoys seeing a girl set through her paces with a flogger, and you will have to bare yourself to this if you are to join us. If you are set on joining me, you'll walk over here now and put your hands above your head, as you will be expected to do there."

'I didn't do anything wrong.'

"This is not about your behavior, Lisa. My girls are trained to meld pleasure with pain, and the flogger can be quite a lovely thing when welded properly. Lewton is necessary to getting to the Governor, and we need to please him during our meeting. All of my girls are trained this way and you cannot be an exception. Now place yourself."

Lisa looked around the room to see if there was a way out of this, but she was not in reach of anything useful and besides, if she wanted to get onto land she needed to get through this. She could do this at least once. Straightening her spine, she walked to where the Captain expected her, and with a tremor in her arms she lifted her hands up to the shackles dangling from the top of the pole.

"Good girl," the Captain purred next to her as he reached up and restrained her.

Lisa couldn't believe him, not since she had been raised with the abuses of her stepmother.

With a sharp inhale, Lisa was startled when she felt a little bell placed into her bound hands and she looked at it curiously.

"I promised I would not take away your communication again. You are only to jingle this bell if there is something you need to alert me to. Do not drop it to stop the flogging, the flogging will happen either way. This is an alert system for you if there is an emergency and you need to be released."

A little part of Lisa's heart warmed that the Captain had been thoughtful in this regard. He was still a bastard for putting her through this, but perhaps it was the only way he saw forward. Relaxing ever so slightly against the pole, Lisa waited for the first strike.
