Fish out of water [not BL]

“It’s Duke Raymond, oh my god he looks so handsome in white!!” a lady exclaimed. Just hearing this warning bell Eloise, peered to the right. A beautiful man dressed completely in white tux walked confidently into the ballroom. His black eyes wandered amongst the crowd, searching for a certain someone. {‘Why is he here!!’} Eloise bit her lips anxiously. {‘Either way, lets run before he catches me,’} she pulled up her fluffy ruffle skirt to her knees and ran like the wind. All of a sudden she felt her skirt being pulled from behind. “How audacious of you to pull a lady’s skirt,” she shouted and pulled without taking a glance back. “My, my, I think I stepped on a cockroach, what shall I do? Shall I roast it for tainting my shoes or should I chop its head off,” a hoarse voice jokingly said from behind. {‘Shit, I’m dead,’} she glanced back in slow motion. “This..... My lord, can you let go of my skirt,” she pointed to his foot that was firmly stepping on the bottom of her skirt. “Why not, I am just expressing my emotions to the lady who expressed ardent feeling to me in her letters,” he said with a smug smirk. The crowd gasped. “She wrote him a love letter!! That shameless wrench,” some lady shouted out loud. Hearing this, Eloise’s eyelid twitched, “sir... no, Lord, I think you misunderstood. I was only expressing my heartfelt gratitude with my ‘thank you’ letter,” she enunciated each word. The duke chuckled. “Oh is that so,” he strode closer having a tight grip on her skirt, “are the words bat-shit-bastard, ring a bell. I read it in your letter,” Eloise gritted her teeth, {‘so you plan to use my word against me, huh? We’ll see who wins,’} she stepped to his side, showing her back to the entire crowd. “MY LORD! Where are you touching me?!” Suddenly she shouted, gasping her bosom. “How audacious of you. I RESPECTED YOU SIR!! How could you do this,” she screamed and ran away while he was frozen in shock. The entire ball room was in disarray. “Lord Raymond is a pervert!!”

Chapter 30 - Crazy Luantic

 

The half naked guy continued to applying some medicine to his gaping wound on his stomach and started wrapping it up in a bandage.

 

"Darn whitey you got me good." He grumbled softly while he was tried the final knot.

 

Standing by the door, Eloise coldly glanced at him. "How are you still alive if I have gotten you good?"

 

He glanced up with a wide smirk. "I told you, I have my own secrets." The pirate swiftly wore his shit on and slowly walked over to the whiskey cabinet. "What should I find to relive my pain?"

 

"You can jump off the ship," Eloise mumbled softly. Even she didn't keno why she was being so bitter and sour at this moment but this guy annoyed her so much. She leaned against the door and gently sighed. "Why did you even bring me here?"

 

"I told you right, I plan to make you a queen," he whispered with a wide smirk.

 

Her eyes narrowed slightly. "What made a good candidate for that position?"

 

"Your white hair, of course. You are like the moon in the middle of so many varieties of shit and pee color hair," he said with a loud, boisterous laughter.

 

"I guess that is your definition for blond and dark-haired people. Then you have shit hair too," she bit back with a smirk as well.

 

He gently caressed his own hair with a frown. "I am shit everywhere you see, lass. Not just my hair." he roughly pulled out a whiskey bottle for the cabinet and started chugging directly out of it. "Agh, nice one, which year is this," he mumbled to himself and started checking the label.

 

Felling his disinterest she moved over to the sofa he sat beforehand and sat on it regally. 'If I can't defeat him, I would have to tame him...' she thought with a hand on her chin.

 

"Hey, do you wish to meet your king? Eh?" he popped his head out to her blowing out alcoholic breath on her.

 

"Who might that be?" she said, without turning her head. 'Seems like he has a top level boss. No wonder he doesn't touch me, but what if that top level boss tried to do something... fuck it. I will just punch and fight like my life depends on.' her hands clenched her skirt tightly.

 

"Here, here." he led her over to another room that connected this one. It was s smaller door so Eloise leaned low and got inside.

 

"Welcome to my king's humble adobe," he hiccupped and giggled. "Do you like her king? Oh I see you lie her," he whispered softly.

 

'Is he a lunatic? There is no one here.' Eloise frowned and looked around. There was not another person there, but there was some movement in one of the cloak hanger. A small white head popped out with its pink tongue out.

 

"A snake? That is your king?" she mumbled softly.

 

He chuckled and gently caressed the snake's head. It hissed and bit into his hand. "Ow, still fond of rough love, eh king," he caressed her head again.

 

Eloise bravely went forward and touched the snake. Unlike when it was hissy with him, it gently nudged her hand and even crawled on top of it.

 

"whoa, lass aren't you afraid it will bite and poison you,"

 

"He is a ball python, you idiot. He is not poisonous," she said with her eyes narrowed. The small white snake was indeed a python, but this one is also special. It had albinism just like her. Its eyes were pink like little ruby and its scales were purely white.

 

He frowned slightly. "How do you know that?"

 

'I can't obviously say that I watched snake discovery in YouTube now, can I?' She scoffed but refused to answer to this.

 

"Hey king, will you accept her as your queen? See, she looks exactly like you, even her eyebrows are white," he whispered to the snake.

 

The snake hissed at him but acted cutely towards her.

 

"Don't mind him king, he is annoying inst he?" Eloise gently caressed the snake's under chin. The snake shook its tail and happily lifted its head, giving her more access. "You like that..... you know king, there is a kind old man in my ship who likes snakes as well. He even had a female ball python would you like her to be your queen,"

 

The pirate scoffed behind her and threw the empty whiskey bottle. "King only like people with white hair. I guess he likes to blokes with only white hair like you. You both can have white babies together."

 

"You do know that a human and a snake can't breed, right?" Eloise looked at him with a disgusted expression.

 

"I—I know of course. I do know of this." he said with gusty and sat down. "I just want to see my king happily with the people of his kind. Maybe he might get happy when he is with his own species."

 

'This fucking lunatic. He is calling me a snake now. Fuck, I was thoroughly mistaken. This guy definitely has a screw lose in his head.' she bit her lips controlling the cuss words from flying out. But suddenly a thought arose in her mind. "if you want snake babies I have an idea, but you have to promise me that you would release all of us you captured from that ship and let us free, like give us a boat and send us off not kill us and free us,"

 

The pirate glanced at her sceptically. "If the snake babies are white, I shall allow this deal."

 

"You said you wanted white babies. I know of a technique on how to breed them," she said confidently. But snide she was quaking. 'Darn, I don't have much experience with this. How can I lie so openly!!'

 

"Continue..."

 

"Accept my deal,"

 

"Fine, if you can help my king have white babies like him then I shall accept your deal,"
