Cyrus was so confused and he knew the Knave was as well, which wasn't helping. But he couldn't hide the fact that he was hurt or confused that the Knave seemed so blind to the pirate's advances.

"To put in words you will understand, you are a bloody fool if you think you don't mean anything to the captain. He is always looking for your attention and that wasn't the first time he's tried to tempt you into his cabin." Cyrus sighed heavily and transferred his look down to the ocean. "It's just the first time he's succeeded."

He licked his lips and turned to look at the Knave again out of the corner of his eye. "If I mean something to you, then why couldn't you come to me? Why not let me satisfy the urge for you? I want too. I shouldn't...you are my master after all, but I want too. Wouldn't it be better with someone you cared for and who cared for you back?"
