Biography

I’m Pirate Princess and this is my story

I was bored. My daddy the King kept bringing me suitors, but every time I tried to play with one, they broke. Sometimes they cried too, but I didn't mind that as much.

The problem was that daddy wanted me to marry, but men, I found, were stupid. Weak even when they pretended they ruled the world. HA! None yet could play my games; they all went home eventually, some by carriage, and some by box.

I was restless one day, the moon was shining but I was stuck inside. Daddy was angry because I had sent the latest suitor home with a broken leg. But daddy didn't understand- I had to test them all. Else how would I find one strong enough to be my match?

Stalking around my room I threw open the chest. I smiled down on my "toys"- whips, chains, shackles. Some leather, some lace- all painful for others, but pleasure for me. In frustration I started grabbing clothes and tossing them in on top of my precious belongings. Once I was done I impatiently called for my man-servant. He had learned early not to cross this Mistress.

Silently I slipped from the house, my man-servant bringing up the rear of the chest. I would show daddy! No one would hold me down or dictate my future. I went to the docks and booked passage on a ship bound for parts unknown.

On my journey I forged a friendship with a fleeing murderess (which thrilled me endlessly!) and a quiet soul called Mouse. They would help guide my way to a new future, a future where I would call the shots, and those who stood in my way- stood to lose more than just the gold in their purse.
