"I think I'd rather live in the ocean that auctioned off to the highest bidder," she said feeling herself starting to relax against him while steering the boat and listening to him breathing as he continued to talk about his plans about what he was going to with her.  She understood the underlying warning of not pissing him off for her being under his protection could be taken away "Aren't you getting what you want, I am sure you'll plenty of money for virgin before adding<i>Princess</i>to your sale's pitch. I don't see you getting not getting something you want" she added letting her gaze stay on the water part of her wondering if there was a way she could go swimming without being caught.<br/><br/>She smiled sheepishly though her heart kicked up nervously as she felt the first mate came up behind her to take the captain's place to help her control the tug of the boat. "Thank you Sir, and please call me Nix" she said before snaking away and thanking him as she moved to catch up with the captain. He was nice contrary to was said by Clay earlier, that wasn't to say that she trusted the older man but she appreciated his kindness.  She kept her gaze ahead not wanting to tempt herself in getting distracted by the ocean and daydream about jumping in to swim away.  She caught up to him as he stopped at the cabin door and snaked past him quickly. She looked at the table and smiled at the simplicity of the setting, it was nice to have something that wasn't an overly complex table setting.<br/><br/>"T-t-thank you," she stuttered surprised that he was acting like such a gentleman for her and moved to his own seat.  "Why did you take me if you don't want me for yourself?" she had to ask unsure about whether she was hungry or not. She was just too nervous and didn't think she'd to eat a bite of food no matter how good it looked. It was a change to have someone across from her and have the opportunity for a conversation.
