A Single Letter Should Not Be So Damning...
From prisoner to captain shouldn't be possible but, as a dandy, Nat wields information like a weapon.
Nobody on the ship knows about Nat's history, who they were before landing in that cell. And Nat wants to keep it that way.
But the Pirate Lord of Shenai is just as much of an information trader as Nat, and he has a simple piece of post that will undo all Nat's careful hiding.
Now Nat has to figure out how to placate the Pirate Lord and keep their past hidden from their crew, all while returning to their family home in the hopes of helping their sister avoid a marriage she doesn't want.
One thing, above all else, is for certain:
Nat should never have slept with the Pirate Lord.
