A Pirates Passion

Chapter 28

"Guess yer going to have to change," he sighed. He was beginning to get a hard on. He released her. "Hope ye fixed us a big breakfast," he said as he closed the door to his room behind him.

Madeline could feel his arousal before he pushed away from her. She could feel her own breasts tightening. She hurried to her room and changed her blouse. When she went back to the kitchen, JJ was there getting ready to dive in. "JJ Sparrow, ye will wait for your Da." She scolded.

"Sorry Mum." JJ said and waited for Jack.

"Did ye and your Da have fun this morning?" She asked him.

"Aye Mum. Ye should've come with us." He said smiling at her.

"Next time we pirates drag her in kicking and screaming," Jack quipped as he entered the kitchen.

"Aye!" JJ growled as fierce as he could at Madeline. She rolled her eyes and laughed.

"Sit down Jack, your son is hungry." She said and got up to pour him some coffee.

She sat back down and began to pour syrup on her pancakes. The syrup trailed over her fingers and she had to lick them clean. She glanced up to see Jack watching her.

Jack growled low in his throat, she was going to be the death of him, "Er, JJ, yer mum and I need to talk to you after breakfast," he said.

JJ looked up at Jack with his mouth full of food. "What about?" He asked.

Madeline reached over and smacked him in the back of the head.

"Mum! What was that for?" He asked.

"Don't talk with your mouth full." She scolded.

Jack hid his grin behind his hand as he held his fork, "As I thought ye learn aboard the Pearl, when the captain says he needs to speak to ye after breakfast yer best course of action will always be to remain quiet about it until that time," Jack said when he got his composure back.

JJ looked up at his father. "Aye Captain." He said and ate some more of his breakfast. He glanced at his mum out of the corner of his eye.

Madeline looked at her son as she picked up a strawberry and took a bite out of it. She looked over at Jack. "Can I get ye anything else Jack?"

"Just a bit more coffee love, thank ye," Jack said smiling at her. God he loved her, but could he trust her? He was beginning to think he could.

She smiled at him and stood up to get the coffee. When she poured it she gently rested her hand on his shoulder. She set the pot down on the table and reached across and snatched a piece of bacon off of JJ's plate.

"Hey!" JJ yelled. "Mum, that wasn't very nice." Madeline giggled.

"She's a pirate too JJ, just being true to her nature," Jack told him and winked at Maddy.

Madeline winked back at him. She could hear JJ grumbling under his breath. "Did ye say something JJ?" she asked.

"No Mum." He said looking up at her and started to laugh. Madeline walked over to him and kissed the top of his head.

"Finish up and then you, me and your Da are going to take a walk. Alright?" She said.

"Aye mum." He popped a strawberry in his mouth and got up and put his dishes in the sink and scampered off to the bathroom. Madeline reached down to take Jack's plate and then looked at him.

"I'm sorry, were you finished?" She asked setting the plate back down.

"Aye love," Jack said sipping his coffee. "How do ye think he's going to take this?" He asked.

She picked up his plate and sighed. "I don't know Jack. I honestly don't know." She said looking down towards the bathroom. She looked down at him.

"I think we should tell him first, not just take him to his sister's grave," Jack told her.

"I agree." She said putting the dishes in the sink. She turned when she heard JJ coming back into the kitchen. "JJ, before we go for our walk, your Da and I want to talk to you."

JJ looked from his Mum to his Da. "Am I in trouble?" he asked.

"Not this time, JJ," Jack said. He looked at Maddy, "Let's go sit in the living room," he said and walked into the room. He sat on the couch, "Come here son." He said gently.

JJ sat next to his father. Madeline sat across from them in the chair. She could see her son's mind going, trying to figure out what was going on.

JJ looked up at Jack and smiled.

Jack lifted JJ and set him in his lap, "JJ, when we went to Port Royal do ye remember how angry I was when we left," he asked.

"Aye Da." JJ said looking from his father to his mother. "Were ye angry about the baby?" he asked. Madeline looked at Jack and moved to kneel in front of her son.

"Aye, because I thought yer mum lied to me, but she didn't. So I think it's time ye know the truth about the baby," he said and looked at Maddy.

Madeline reached out and took JJ's hand in hers. "I sent a letter to Tortuga to tell your Da about your sister. But he never got it." She said quietly. Her tears were threatening. She glanced at Jack. "But Louis Jacquette got it instead and he came to Port Royal looking for me."

"That bastard." JJ growled.

"Ye don't have to unless ye want to JJ, but we'd like to take ye to see where yer sister is," Jack said gently rubbing his son's shoulders.

JJ looked between his father and mother. Anger raged through him. He merely nodded. He looked at Jack. "Is he dead?"

"Aye son, he's dead," Jack assured him. "He'll never hurt us again," he whispered. He looked at Maddy with pride.

Madeline smiled at him through tears.

"Did ye kill him mum?" JJ asked. Madeline nodded at her son.

"Aye JJ, I should've killed him a long time ago." She said quietly.

"All that matters is that he's gone and can never hurt us again," Jack said. "JJ, your mum and I will take you to Angel's grave if you want too, but if you don't it's all right," Jack assured him.

JJ looked at his father and then at his mother. "Take me now." He said sternly.

Madeline shot a look at Jack. She had never heard her son speak like that before.

"All right son but before we do I want you to promise me something," Jack said still rubbing his son's shoulders affectionately.

"What's that Da?" JJ asked.

Jack turned his son around to face him, he looked him in the eye, "That you will let go of this anger. I know you are angry, we all are angry but do not let it eat away at you because nothing good can come from it."

JJ nodded. He knew his father was right, but he felt something he had never really felt before. Pure rage. "I'll try Da. I promise."

Jack looked at Maddy, "We all have to let go of our anger, or we'll never be at peace, Angel will never be at peace," he said knowingly.

Madeline slowly stood and looked at Jack. She nodded and wiped her tears away.

"Can we go now?" JJ asked.

Jack looked at his son, "Yes JJ, Maddy if you don't want to come it's all right," he told her softly. He remembered how taking him there had hurt her and he didn't want to make her feel she had to do this if she didn't want to.

"No, I'll come." She said quietly. "We do this together."

Jack took her hand and kissed it as he looked into her eyes. He didn't say the words but he hoped she'd read it in his eyes.

She smiled at him and squeezed his hand. She reached down and helped JJ up, holding on to his hand. "Are ye ready my little pirate?" she asked.
