The Fine Line Between Legends And Lies

Chapter 13:

A/N: Jack finally tells Elizabeth where he is taking them to hide just before they arrive in Shipwreck Cove. Jack is reunited with his father and things go smoothly at first. How long will the truce last before Teague and Jack start to be at each other’s throats? Hope you enjoy the latest chapter!

The first gray light of dawn illuminated the horizon rousing Jack from his slumber. He rubbed his eyes sleepily and glanced down at the still sleeping form of his wife. Last night they had spent hours making love so undoubtedly she was still in need of time to recover. Jack leaned in and placed a soft kiss on Elizabeth’s right temple before carefully climbing out of their bed. He pulled on his clothing as quietly as he could manage and then left the cabin to join whoever happened to be at the wheel on watch currently.

Jack grinned when he saw it was Gibbs who was manning the helm of the Pearl at this early hour. He approached the older man and gave him a firm pat on the back. “Good morning Mr. Gibbs!”

“Ah morning Captain! Yer up quite early.”

“Yes I was rather restless so I decided it would be best t’ get up so as not t’ disturb Elizabeth.”

“We’ve made good time t’ Shipwreck Cove Captain.”

“Have we now?”

“Aye Captain, be there in another two hours we will.”

“Excellent! Ye may take leave from yer watch Gibbs.”

“Thank ye Captain.”

Jack nodded as he took over at the helm for Gibbs. This would give him reason to stay out of the cabin and allow Elizabeth to get some much needed rest. If he stayed in the cabin with her he was too tempted to wake her up and take her. Jack found that his desire for Elizabeth simply could not be sated. Every time she was near he felt the incredible urge to rip her clothes from her body and bed her. But since she was pregnant and getting further along in the pregnancy every day that passed Jack knew that he would have to find a way to keep his raging lust for her under control. He inhaled deeply taking in the salty air that surrounded him. The water was a beautiful shade of sapphire and the waves seemed to be on their side actually helping them along in their journey to Shipwreck Cove.

The smile melted from Jack’s face as thoughts of seeing his father invaded his brain. As much as he hated the man he knew that Shipwreck Cove was the only real chance he had at keeping his wife and unborn child safe from the Royal Navy. It vexed him to no end that he would have to endure the condescending demeanor of his father for God knows how long. Most likely they would be there until after the runt had been born. Jack knew that Commodore Norrington and Will Turner would not likely be giving up their pursuit of Elizabeth anytime soon.

The sun began to rise higher in the sky as it got later in the morning. Jack chanced a glance back at the cabin from where he stood at the helm. The door was still closed meaning that Elizabeth was more than likely still asleep. He chuckled to himself as he glanced down at his left hand to look at the silver band he wore. Had someone told him that he would be married to Elizabeth and expecting a child with her a few months ago he would have thought them mad. In a roundabout way he actually had Hector Barbossa to thank for the way things had turned out. If Barbossa hadn’t again deserted him on that island with Elizabeth then they would have never been together. And if they had never been together then they would have never gotten married. Not to mention that their child would be nonexistent.

So yes Jack had quite a lot to thank Hector Barbossa for. Not that he would ever actually get around to thanking his mutinous former first mate. No, it would be a cold day in hell before he ever uttered those words aloud. Jack caught movement in his peripheral vision and turned to his left to find Ragetti coming up from below deck. “Ah Master Ragetti!”

“Morning Captain.”

“Take over the helm for me, I’ve business that needs tending t’ right away.”

“Aye Captain.” The one eyed man padded over to the helm and took Jack’s place. Jack hurried back in the direction of his cabin. He wanted to check on Elizabeth to see if she had woken up yet, and if she hadn’t he planned on waking her up. Jack opened the cabin door to see Elizabeth standing with one foot placed on the edge of the table. She was in nothing but the taffeta shirt that she had slept in. His dark eyes followed her foot all the way up to just below her backside. He watched as she dipped a washcloth in the basin and then brought it between her legs to wash herself. Unable to ignore the rapidly forming bulge in his breeches Jack swaggered over to where she stood and dropped to his knees in front of her making her drop the washcloth in surprise. The wet cloth hit the floor with a faint squishing sound as she stood frozen in front of him.

Jack placed his calloused hands on the backs of her thighs eliciting a small gasp from her as he gently tugged her closer to him. Then he leaned up and began kissing a scorching path up the inside of her right thigh. Elizabeth moaned softly and let her head fall back as Jack inched ever closer to her pulsing center. When his tongue finally swept across her silken folds she felt her left leg tremble and threaten to give out. His tongue probed her entrance dancing over her clit that had peeked out from it’s hiding place. She rocked her hips slightly against his mouth. “Oh Jack!”

Jack grinned against her womanhood as he slid his left hand between her thighs. Elizabeth whimpered what Jack thought to be his name as he slipped a finger inside her slick body. He began pumping his finger in rhythm to his tongue making her tremble beneath him. Elizabeth’s slender fingers tangled in his dreadlocked mane pulling his sinful mouth closer to her aching core. She needed more. She was so close to a release but she needed to feel him inside her. Her voice was throaty and desperate when she spoke. “Jack?”

“Hmmm?”

“Need you….now!”

“I’m right here love.”

“No….need you……need you inside me!”

He chuckled at the pleading in her voice as he slowly rose to his feet removing his finger and tongue from her body hearing her whine at the loss. Jack’s rough hands slid down her waist to cup her backside firmly as he lifted her making her legs wrap around his middle tightly. Elizabeth ground herself against Jack’s breeches feeling his erection prod at her. Once he had walked over to the bed Jack leaned down and placed Elizabeth onto it prying her legs from his waist. He stepped out of his boots and began removing his clothing. Elizabeth hastily yanked her shirt over her head and tossed it to the floor. Once Jack had slipped his breeches down past his hips Elizabeth sat up and grabbed his hand puling him down on top of her desperately.

Jack kicked off the rest of his breeches as he felt Elizabeth eagerly spread her thighs to accommodate him. He chuckled at her anxiousness to have him inside her. Elizabeth wrapped her legs back around Jack’s waist tightly pulling him closer against her. Jack reached down between them and went to slide a finger back inside of her but she reached down and grabbed his hand stopping him. He looked at her questioningly. “Want you inside me now Jack! I can’t wait any longer!”

Ah so she was desperate for him was she? Jack grinned devilishly upon hearing how much she longed for him to bury himself inside of her. Why she was practically begging him to penetrate her. Jack reached down and guided his erection up to her slick and very eager entrance. He rocked forward and slipped easily inside her making her arch towards him instantly. Elizabeth began rocking against him immediately wanting to reach a much needed release. Jack noticed her climacteric movements and began rocking against her to try and bring her to what is was she so obviously wanted. Elizabeth acknowledged his gesture with a long drawn out moan as she thrust her hips upward against him again.

Her nails bit into the flesh at his shoulders and the heels of her feet dug into his backside as he rocked against her. Elizabeth could feel the knot tightening in her lower belly the closer her release approached. Just a little longer and she would be there. Jack glanced down to see Elizabeth biting her bottom lip as she rocked against him feverishly. She was so beautiful. Her skin was glistening with a fine sheen of sweat as she frantically thrust against him trying to find her release. A strand of her silky golden hair clung to the side of her neck damp with the sweat that had collected there. His eyes lowered to her breasts to see they were bouncing with each thrust that was made, her pink nipples hard and pointing up towards him.

“Jack please……please…..need to come!”

With a grunt he pulled out of her and rolled her onto her stomach. Her inner muscles clenched in anticipation of feeling him reclaim her from behind. And then she felt him hard and rigid filling her body as he thrust into her. Elizabeth gave a strangled moan as Jack began pumping into her even harder than he had been before. Jack gave a small grunt as he felt Elizabeth pushing back against him. So even this wasn’t enough for her then? Reaching down between her thighs he allowed his index finger to dip between her silky folds to lubricate himself with her juices. Jack then moved his hand to her backside. He slipped his finger between the cheeks of her firm round bottom and gently pressed until he could feel his finger beginning to penetrate her. Elizabeth whimpered as she felt Jack’s finger penetrating her backside as he continued to thrust inside her slick cavern.

Once his finger had sank inside her to his knuckle he began pumping it inside her mimicking the ministrations of his hips. Elizabeth felt the tingles of her rapidly approaching orgasm. And from the sheer force of the tremors that began coursing through her body it was obvious that it was going to be a magnificent climax. Jack felt the intense jerking of her inner muscles as she threw her head back and screamed out his name. He felt the flood of moisture that began running down the insides of her thighs and down his shaft to coat his balls. Her inner walls contracted so furiously that the force of it made her knees shake violently before betraying her. Jack gave a few more thrusts and then grabbed her hips roughly as he exploded inside of her. Elizabeth whimpered his name in barely more than a whisper when she felt the scorching heat of him spending inside of her. He shuddered from his release and then collapsed onto her back pressing his forehead against her hot sweaty skin.


Elizabeth gave a pathetic cry as she felt him slip from her now soft from spilling his seed into her body. Her heart hammered against her ribs as she desperately tried to suck a breath into her burning lungs. “Jack?”

“Yes love?”

“I….I can’t breathe!”

“Oh right, sorry darling.” He rolled off her falling onto his back still panting for air. His eyes met hers as she shifted beside him so that she was now laying on her side. They smiled still unable to catch their breath.

Finally when their pulse had returned to normal she cleared her throat. He looked at her with raised eyebrows silently gesturing for her to continue. “Jack?”

“Hmmmm?”

“Where are we going?”

“T’ Shipwreck Cove love.”

“Shipwreck Cove? But isn’t your father-”

He cut her off quickly. “Yes Teague is there.”

“Then why-”

Jack cut her off again quickly. “Because Lizbeth, it’s the safest place I know t’ take ye an’ the runt.”

“But you hate your father?”

“Aye.”

“Jack, how on earth is this going to work?”

“Don’t ye worry love, I’ll manage t’ at the very least be civil t’ Teague. Only for the sake of knowing that ye an’ the runt will be safe.”

“I’m proud of you Jack.”

“Oh? And t’ what do I deserve yer praise my darling?”

“Being able to put aside your feelings for your father and consider what’s more important.”

“Love my relationship with Teague, or rather lack thereof, is the least of my concern. All that matters is yer safety.”

She leaned over and kissed him passionately. “You’re a good man Jack Sparrow.”

“Let’s jus’ keep that between the two of us love. Wouldn’t want that sort of thing t’ get out, savvy?”

She nodded and then jumped when someone pounded on the cabin door. Jack chuckled as Elizabeth pulled the covers over her naked body. The gruff voice of Mr. Gibbs floated through the door to them. “Captain?”

“What is it Gibbs?”

“We be approaching Shipwreck Cove right now sir, should be dropping anchor in maybe the next ten minutes.”

“Thank ye Gibbs!”

“Aye Captain.” They listened as his footsteps got softer as they headed away from the cabin.

“Well darling, we had better get dressed.” Elizabeth slid out of bed and padded over to the table. Bending over she picked up the forgotten washcloth and then dipped it back into the basin. Jack watched as she carefully cleaned his seed from where it had leaked down the insides of her thighs. Then she slipped on her black breeches and tucked in her taffeta shirt before fastening them and then buckling her belt. Elizabeth stepped into her boots and then combed out her hair. Jack quickly got back into his clothes and then reached for his hat that had been dropped just at the door of the cabin from when he had walked in earlier.

Once they had both finished dressing they headed back out on deck. The Pearl eased into the harbor and made it’s way to the rickety and neglected looking pier. The crew scurried about as they made ready to drop anchor. Jack took Elizabeth’s hand in his as the anchor was cast overboard into the sapphire waves. A couple of boards were laid down onto the edge of the pier. “Well love, let’s get this over with.” Turning to Gibbs he gave orders. “Yer in charge mate. See t’ it that everyone finishes their chores before they come ashore to Shipwreck City savvy?”

“Aye Captain.” Having given orders Jack then once again took Elizabeth’s hand in his as they walked down the boards and stepped onto the pier. He squeezed her hand softly as they headed towards the immense fortress of shipwrecks that loomed in the near distance. Elizabeth looked up at the large iron doors that had been painted black and had large iron handles on them. Banging on the door loudly Jack flashed her a quick grin as they waited. It didn’t take long for the huge doors to open and they were met by the blades of the swords of the two pirates who stood guard.

“What business do ye have here?”

“I’m Captain Jack Sparrow, I’m here t’ see Teague Sparrow.”

The two men lowered their weapons quickly muttering apologies to Jack. Then they stepped aside to allow Jack and Elizabeth to enter the fortress. Jack pushed Elizabeth in front of him as they walked inside the dimly lit fortress. They walked down the wide and seemingly endless hallway until they came to the great hall where everyone gathered for dinners and parties and such. The guard that had led them turned to them to speak. “Wait here, Captain Teague will be with you shortly.”

Nodding Jack pulled out a chair for Elizabeth to sit down. He chose to stand behind her chair resting his hands on her shoulders lightly. A scowl began to creep onto his face as they waited for Teague to join them. How dare he make them wait for him to greet them like it was some sort of great honor for them to talk with him? Jack snorted under his breath when he heard the unmistakable sound of his father’s footsteps coming down the hall. Soon Teague appeared in the doorway of the dining hall and wrinkled his brow when he caught sight of his son. “What kind of trouble are ye in now boy?”

Jack glared at the condescending tone in his father’s voice. “How do ye know I’m in trouble? Can I not simply jus’ feel the need t’ come an’ see ye?”

Teague snorted sarcastically making Jack glare even harder. “Since when do ye ever jus’ want t’ see me Jackie? Never. An’ I know yer in trouble cause ye brought the girl with ye.” He turned and acknowledged Elizabeth with a tip of his hat. “Hello yer majesty.”

Elizabeth grinned remembering that she was indeed still King of the Brethren Court. “Hello Captain Teague, how are you?”

“Good. So what trouble has my son gotten ye into?”

Jack spoke up before Elizabeth could. “Elizabeth an’ I need t’ stay here for a while.”

“For?”

“Uh well we need protection.”

“Spit it out boy, who’s after ye?”

With a glare Jack sighed as he realized that he had to tell his father everything. “Oh alright! I’m in a lot of bloody trouble! Happy? Course ye are, ye live t’ make everyone else miserable!”

“Are ye finished boy?”

“Elizabeth an’ I need t’ hide here from the Royal Navy.”

“Ah got the Royal Navy after yer hide eh? Tell me boy, why is it that Elizabeth needs t’ hide from them?”

“Well ye see, we sort of got married an’ her father wasn’t so happy bout the union.”

“Married? Ye got married boy? What is she pregnant?”

Jack swallowed nervously before answering. “Yep, she’s pregnant. So yer going t’ let us stay right?”

Teague groaned and rolled his eyes. “What a fine mess ye got yerself into Jackie! Married an’ she’s pregnant. So did she get pregnant before or after ye got married?”

“Before.”

“I figured as much.”

“So bout us staying here?”

“Alright ye can stay, but I ain’t doing this for ye boy.”

“Right, I didn’t think so.”

“I’m doing it for the girl an’ the brat.” Jack opened his mouth to speak but Teague raised his hand abruptly silencing him. “Don’t even think bout saying the words thank ye t’ me boy!”

“I wasn’t. I wasn’t going t’ say thank ye.” Teague grunted as he turned to leave. Jack gave Elizabeth a nervous grin. “Well come on boy, don’t jus’ stand there like an idiot. Follow me if ye want t’ see yer room.”

“Right.” Jack took Elizabeth by the hand and they followed Teague down the long hallway to a large winding staircase. They started up the stairs and then turned left down another hallway. They followed Teague until they came to the second to the last room on the right. Opening the door Teague gestured for them to go in.

“Here’s yer room. Try an’ refrain from getting into anymore trouble boy.”

“I can do that.”

“Good.” With a quick nod Teague left them alone in their quarters. Elizabeth sank down onto the large four poster bed and looked up at Jack.

He grinned at her before speaking. “Well that went better than I expected.”

“Yes, he wasn’t quite as condescending as I thought he would be.” Jack sank down next to her on the bed and wrapped an arm around her shoulders to draw her closer to him. He felt a bit more at ease now that they had taken refuge at Shipwreck Cove. Perhaps living under the same roof with his father wouldn’t be all that horrible after all? It wasn’t as if they had any other options at their disposal.

A/N: Okay hope you like how the story has went so far. I’m going to jump ahead so that Elizabeth will be further along in her pregnancy. Jack and Teague are going to get under each other’s skin eventually as well. Hope you enjoy it!
