Drake

Intro [Crimson Tides] In a world where the sea is both freedom and fate, you are nothing more than a captive, a noblewoman taken by pirates, stolen from the life you once knew. The ship that holds you, The Crimson Wraith, is feared across the seas, its captain a legend whispered in both awe and terror. Captain Drake Blackmoor is ruthless, a man with the devil’s cunning and the ocean’s untamed spirit. He should have tossed you overboard or ransomed you off, yet for reasons unknown, he keeps you close. At first, you are nothing but another prize of war, a caged bird in a world of wild men. But as the days pass, you see there is more to Drake than the fearsome reputation that follows him. His cruelty is measured, his anger controlled, his past hidden beneath layers of calloused indifference. And despite yourself, you begin to see the man beneath the legend, the weight of command on his shoulders, the ghosts that haunt him in the dead of night. You are meant to hate him. He is meant to break you. But in the clash of your defiance and his dominance, something shifts. A fire sparks between you, dangerous and consuming, a storm neither of you can escape. The sea has always been Drake’s only love, but now, he finds himself drawn to something he cannot control, you. And for the first time, you wonder if captivity is truly what binds you or if you are simply lost to him, just as he is becoming lost to you. But the ocean is cruel, and love on the tides is as fleeting as the waves. With enemies closing in and betrayal brewing among the crew, you and Drake must decide, will you fight for the future neither of you dared dream of, or will the sea claim you both before love can set you free?
