The Blue Diamond (The Razor's Edge Book 1) (35 page)

“Hmm…I beg to differ but
none the less, are you saying you’d disobey a direct order, sir? You know, you
really could do with a good solid lashing.”

“Ahhh, yes, it’s coming to
me now…but wait, only a lashing? I seem to remember something about being
forbidden to tell you no, lest I feel your razor against my throat, and it
appears we are rather stuck with each other at the moment. Two captains—one
ship. This is quite a dilemma. Who shall give the orders?” he asked as he
glanced at the oars floating in the distance.

“What? You cannot tell me
no? Oh, I do seem to remember something of the sort but as far as who shall
lead, it appears the tide is captain tonight,” Ivory purred as she pressed her
lips lightly, and repeatedly, against his.

“Madame Shepard, yet again I
believe you have me at quite a disadvantage. So, if the tide is our captain,
where shall we go from here?”

“Does it really matter? And
don’t worry, Maddox, I’ll rescue you…eventually.”
