Contessa Clavarino had been on a voyage to the Americas when her ship was set upon by pirates! The unfortunate Contessa could only watch in horror as her fellow sailors were slaughtered. Finally, only she was taken prisoner. She was surprised to meet the fiery-haired pirate Captain Lizzie Deathshead! The Contessa pleaded for mercy, but the piratess only laughed, eyeing the Italian aristocrat's pretty dress with gleeful interest.
The Contessa screamed in terror as the pirates roughly tore her dress from her, even ripping away her ornate powdered-wig! Soon the Contessa was naked before the leering pirates, ineffectually covering her nudity with her arms, but the pirate Captain wasn't done. She ordered that the Contessa be bound and gagged, securing Clavarino so her arms and legs were tightly tied up and her mouth held shut.
"Right!" Lizzie Deathshead sneered as she drew her sword, "off the plank with you!"
The Contessa screamed into her gag as she was pushed and hopped undignifyingly onto the narrow length of wood, the open water lurching and surging below. She tried to shuffle back to the safety of the ship, but the Captain was behind her, her cutlass out and prepared to skewer her should she attempt return. Clavarino said her prayers, terrified that this was the end...
The pirates laughed cruelly to themselves. Of course they weren't really going to cast the Contessa to the depths. Having her terrified for her life would make her wonderfully obedient. With a body like that, she'd make an excellent slave, just like Lizzie Deathshead! Lizzie herself had once been a young aristocrat, travelling from England across the Atlantic when she too had been captured. Rather than tossing her to Davy Jone's Locker, the crew had kept her as their pet. One day they'd ordered her to pose as their "Captain" after capturing a merchant ship, and the joke had been so funny they'd continued it ever since.
Now they had a lovely Italian girl, maybe they'd have the two of them make love on deck for the crew's entertainment.
