Bloody Beth, Chapter 02

A furious William Marbry threw a wooden drinking cup across the room.

"It has been three months since that witch got her ransom money for

the good Lady Speer! The Duke informs me that ever since her harrowing

experience with those beasts His Lady has been refusing him conjugal

visits. Have you any idea what that can do to a man?"

The target of his fury, one Captain Alison, swallowed hard. Marbry

regarded him as a useful rarity to this island, a man who liked women.

"Sir, your own physician did attest that she was not poorly used by

those ruffians."

"Ruffians?" Marbry sneered. "Ruffians? Have you any idea of whom you're

talking about? That is the oldest surviving pirate compact in the West

Indies, captain! The Jacob's Ladder has been a thorn in my backside for

nearly ten years! Longer than Morgan! Longer than Morrow!" He calmed

down a bit, even long enough to gesture to the secretary who stood at his

side. The secretary recovered his drinking cup and a crystal decanter of

rum. "Of course they didn't misuse her, captain, almost all pirates are

a company of sodomites down here. That is not the point. The Jacob's

Ladder is a crew of monsters today headed by a witch who can smell

English money at 50 leagues and who calls the storms when she wishes."

Marbry sat down in a padded chair and scooted forward to his desk

while his bald, dark-skinned secretary poured him a drink. He paused

to stare out his window, momentarily ignoring Allison. As the Governor,

his mansion had a magnificent view of Kingston harbor, and on the second

floor the wind blew through with great effect. But for all its beauty,

Marbry knew that this edifice was simply the most comfortable cage in

all of Jamaica and he the island's most pampered animal. He had been

appointed Governor of Jamaica precisely because he was too troublesome

elsewhere in the Empire but he was an effective administrator when the

lives of his subjects were not much at issue. Any island in the West

Indies qualified. Jamaica was simply the largest.

As Governor of Jamaica, Marbry had proved brutally effective. He

administered The King's lands and collected the King's taxes from the

local Temporal Lords with ruthless efficiency, not that there was any

trouble with him doing so. The lords who had merely invested and sent

over administrators got what they wanted out of the islands. Those who

had actually come here to oversee their own fields had learned that their

less courageous peers were being thieved with both hands. The island was

thick with pirates and thieves, only a few of whom had Letters of Marque

but most of whom were useful to His Majesty. Even so, the money from

the West Indies flowed back toward England in ever increasing volumes

to feed the ravenous maw of arms and troops as King George conducted his

ridiculous little war with the Dutch. It was not a history of which one

could be proud.

For a sailor like Alison, the transition from the Royal Navy that

plied the coasts and dropped anchor in harbor now and then to the

Navy's West Indies operation had probably seemed like an adventure.

Marbry understood Alison well enough to know that harsh reality had

finally set in. Alison had long ago expressed exasperation with rum,

found no pleasure in sodomy from one end and no desire to experience

it from the other, and was now the man holding the lash rather than

receiving it, not that he enjoyed that position either. His one vice

remained the whorehouse on Capitol Hill, a vice Marbry shared, as did

so many of the well-heeled men of the city for whom the black serving

girls or their own fading, fragile wives were little source of comfort.

Although as he thought about it, Marbry thought the Lady Speer qualified

as neither fading nor fragile. She was quite clearly in the bloom of her

life, a beautiful woman who had defiantly stood out while even that fool

of a captain, Hill, had cowered behind a rock. She had been grateful

for her recovery, of course, but she had been no delicate flower.

Alison spoke, interrupting his reverie. "Sir, my men and I will catch

this pirate."

"You had better, Captain Alison. My bookkeeper informs me that without my

payroll I will have to do drastic things with the taxes imposed on His

Majesty's subjects and that will make nobody happy. There is not much

money on this island, Allison, and I do not control it. The only way

money gets here is when England sends it here. It only gets sent here

because sugar, rum, timber, and the rest go to country. men here only

work because they get the money which king and country send-- a sizable

fraction of which is now in the hands of pirates!" He was shouting. He

took a deep breath to bring his emotions under control.

"I do not naturally put men to test like this, but I understand that

your three-year commission to the island is ending in six months.

Catch her and I will let you head home earlier."

Alison was surprised. "Thank you, sir!"

"Do not thank me yet, Alison. If you do not catch her, I may not let

you go home at all."

Alison seemed to explode like cannon. "You cannot do that! We have been

here three years, Governor! It is against the law to..."

"To send home men who will merely be pressed into service once again,

and those that so choose will get back into their floating Sodoms and

once again ply my waters? Only a few really want to go home, Alison

and I know by your tastes that you are one of them. If you want to see

England again, find her. Kill her for me."

Alison gritted his teeth and nodded. "Yes, sir."

"I knew you would see it my way. We will be having a party at Lofn's

tonight. You are welcome to join us, of course."

Alison sighed. Marbry gleefully took away with one hand as he held out

gifts with the other. "Thank you, sir," Alison said. "You are too kind."

"Dismissed."

William Marbry watched the disappointed man retreat from his office as if

he were retreating from the central chambers of Hell itself. To William

Marbry that is all Jamaica represented: a hot, diseased Hell overrun with

Negroes and pirates. He wasn't sure which were the greater trouble. The

pirates may have been mostly white, but they were rarely entirely English

crews: many of the older ones were half-breeds and only God knew what

kinds of mongrels were the younger ones. They spoke a patois of English,

French, Dutch, Spanish, and he was sure that some words from the local

savages had worked their way into the pirate vocabulary.

He paused to regard the clock on the table across from him. It was one

of those new, smaller models from Switzerland, the kind with the small

internal weights that had to be adjusted every day. He liked the thing;

it rang with significant power every hour, tracking time precisely,

counting down for him hour by hour the moment when he could finally

get away from this Godforsaken spit of rock. The clock read ten in the

morning. It could read any time of day that he pleased, as nobody else

on the island cared what time of day it was: they rose at dawn to either

work or drink and stopped when the sun went down or they passed out. But

William Marbry was a man of efficiency and discipline, or so it was said

by others, and he meant to keep it that way.

But the business with the Piratess Beth was more than a mere mar on his

record. It was a curse hanging over his head. A curse he hoped to destroy.

He glanced over at his secretary. "Elvio, have my horse saddled and

inform Joseph and Lieutenant Johnson that I am going to the Duke of

Coke's household." He pulled on a riding jacket and a brimmed hat.

"And have a runner sent up to Lofn's. Inform them that there will be

one more on His Majesty's books, a Captain Alison."

"At once, sir," Elvio said in that thick, native accent that Marbry found

irritating. The talk, dark-skinned man was almost a pirate himself,

with his shaved head and his earring. But he had attached himself to

the governor's rising star with mercenary zeal and Marbry had learned

to depend on him to be ruthless when needed. Elvio was also something

of a mystery, for he could read and write, although he would not reveal

where he had acquired those skills. Marby suspected a priest engaged in

illegal business.

Marbry's mood swung toward the cheerful as he descended the steps of

his abode to find another black-skinned servant dressed all in white

and holding a chestnut-colored horse for him. He barely acknowledged

the man as he mounted. From his vantage point he could see most of the

front courtyard and he could hear the hooved feet of a horse, the rider

his chief guard, the man whose principal duty it was to protect his

life. "Good morning, Lieutenant."

"Sir," Lieutenant Johnson responded, professionally holding onto the

reins of his steed with both hands and not saluting. Marbry enjoyed

the display of steel in Johnson's back as the man sat further upright.

To rule, the governor thought, was a good thing. He would miss it some

day, he supposed, but with the money he had squeezed from Jamaica and

some, other, dealings, he would not miss it too badly. They waited until

they were joined by three more of Johnson's men. "Where is Joseph?"

"Here, sir," replied Marbry's personal bookkeeper. He was a tall man with

blond hair cropped short and a beard trimmed close and clean. He rode

with skill and calm, which never ceased to amaze Marbry. His experience

with bookkeepers was that they were generally nervous, timid fellows

prone to worry about making mistakes. Joseph acted as if mistakes were

impossible. That gave Marbry confidence in the man.

The ride to Lord Coke's mansion took less than an hour. When he reached

the gates, he was welcomed by one of the few white servants remaining

on the island. The Duke's courtyard had an unpleasantly Spanish flavor

to it, like much of the island, a design that reminded him of Earl

Harcourt's rotted home. He sighed, at once reminding himself that the

Spanish were the experts on surviving climates like this one and they

had long ago mastered the art of doing so in high style. He waited with

the Lieutenant, tapping his boot softly with a riding crop that he rarely

used on a horse. men and women were another matter.

"His Majesty's Honorable Governor Marbry," a voice rang out across the

open courtyard. Marbry spotted the broad bulk of the man he had come

to visit walking across the courtyard. The Duke of Coke had a strong,

ruddy face and penetrating eyes, and only the unruly quality of his own

hair, uncovered, hinted that he had begun to leave the discipline of

the English Court behind him.

"Your grace," Marbry replied in similar respect.

"Come within, Marbry. Good to see you, Joseph. It is too hot to be

standing outside in the day like this, even with the breeze." The Duke,

smartly dressed in pants and a blouse shirt, gestured toward an open

doorway that awaited them both. Marbry acquiesced. The Duke led them

to another room and the quiet solitude of an upstairs office laid out

not unlike Marbry's own. "It is good of you to come today. I trust you

have heard?"

Marbry nodded. It had been the news of the day, and not welcome at all. "I

just put the threat to Captain Alison. We cannot have that witch plying

the seas if she is who we think she is. We never did find that brat, and

she is exactly the right age to be Elizabeth Harcourt. And the Jacob's

Ladder was the Earl's personal privateer. It cannot be anyone else. We

must make sure that that line of the family is killed off forever."

"From My Lady's description, she is a powerfully strong and able

woman. Even wounded, she would be a terrible adversary. And if she should

get word..."

Marbry nodded. The current turn of events was not shaping up as he would

have liked.

Joseph muttered, "We could always kill him when he arrives in Jamaica."

Coke dismissed the idea. "It would raise suspicions. Why would the

Harcourt family be so cursed as to have all of a father, daughter,

and son die of violence, when no other family on the island has had

such tribulations?" The Duke shook his head. "No. It has to be by some

other means."

"Poison, perhaps. Or disease."

"Do you know how to conjure a spirit of illness, Joseph? I thought not."

Marbry sighed. "I wish I had never heard of this accursed place. I wish

I had never heard of Mexico. The money from the mine is astounding,

but the cost, My Lord, if we should get caught!"

The Duke smiled. "We will not get caught. We have not gotten caught yet,

and it has been ten years. This is a mere... irritation."

He was surrounded by confident men. That made Marbry feel that he had

the situation more under control. "You are correct, My Lord. It is merely

more irritating than usual."

The day passed quietly without any of them saying a word. The afternoons

in Jamaica were times when even speaking was too much effort. It was

best to just sit back, sip an ale, and wait for the coolness of evening

to settle over everything. "You are coming with us tonight?" Marbry

finally asked.

"Of course I am," the Duke responded, his face darkening. "I do not

know what kind of spell that pirate girl has cast on my good wife, but

it has distressed her no end. She eats well, rides for exercise, but

she tells me that the thought of doing her wifely duty distresses her.

Yet she also swears that none of the pirates had their way with her.

Have you ever heard of such a thing, Marbry?"

"I have, My Lord, but not often. I can imagine that such a moment can

change a person. I think this will soon pass."

"I should hope so. I must produce an heir, after all, and my young wife is

due to give me what is rightfully mine. If she will not give it willingly,

well, a man must do his duty, and a woman must do hers." The Duke's smile

looked familiar to Marbry, a feral smile. He enjoyed the Duke's company

for exactly this reason, the feeling of being a wolf among fellow wolves.

Marbry had married but his wife had died before giving him an heir. He

had never married since, preferring the company of women who went away

when he stopped paying them. When he was a truly rich man, he would have

time for a wife.

"We must return to our duties," Marbry sighed. "I trust you will be

there on time?"

The Duke waved a hand dismissively. It annoyed Marbry; he had done

most of the work-- the Duke had merely provided the money to start

the operation-- yet he was treated like a lackey. Still, soon it would

matter not at all. He would have something more important than a title,

or honor, or a name-- he would have money. The kind of money he needed

to establish himself a place in history.

By the time he reached his offices and had dismissed Joseph, the sun

had begun to set. He had little enough time to dress and eat what his

servants thought of as a passable meal before he was again on his horse
and crossing the town toward Lofn's.

One of the girls, a pretty creature with too much makeup for his tastes,

met him at the door. "Good evening, Governor. We have been expecting you."

He nodded and walked in. The room was arrayed with a few more women

than had been here at his last visit. A consignment of debtor women from

Ireland had arrived since his last visit and it made sense that some of

them were of the sort that would find themselves here. And there were

more men here as well.

Although he had long ago become used to Lofn's home, he still remained

impressed by the quality he saw here. She had a large home, clearly

intended as a dormitory for her many girls, with a rear courtyard that

provided its own well and its own laundering facilities. It was paneled

in a dark wood that came from the mainland, another sign that Lofn was

riding high as the main provider of women higher than streetwalkers.

"Governor. It is so good to see you." Lofn's lilting Northerner accent

cut through the air with marked precision, making him and every other man
in the room look up immediately. She had the palest blond hair he had

ever seen, and the bluest eyes. He had to admit that of all the women

Lofn offered, few were as enticing and exotic as she herself. She had

civilized Negresses and moors, of course, but they didn't count to Marbry.

"And it is good to see you as well, Lofn." He was careful not to use

the honorific 'Lady' around her. Others may have called her that, but to

Marbry she was nothing more than one who provided a service. A useful one,

but not much more than that.

"What interests you tonight, Governor?"

He looked around the room. He had a few he liked best, but it was the

new women that attracted his eye more than old favorites. Two that

attracted his eye had the pale skin and dark hair of Ireland. He liked

the doe-soft qualities in their vision, and he admired the arrogant

posture they held as they leaned, side-by-side, against the banister.

"Who are they?" he asked, pointing.

"Dymphna and Tullia? They're recent acquisitions from the troubles in

Ireland. Would you like to try one of them?"

"Why not both?"

"I know you can afford it, Governor, and so I would not deny you such

a request, but I must ask you if you are really up to such demands."

Marbry smiled. "What demands, Lofn? They will do what I ask of them

and nothing else. If I choose to spend myself but once, well, one will

go disappointed."

"Indeed," Lofn said. Marbry realized suddenly that neither would go

disappointed. Both would get paid with his gold. Lofn gestured for the

two women to join them. "Dymphna, Tullia, this is Governor Marbry. He

has requested that the two of you perform for his interests tonight."

The door opened and Marbry heard Captain Alison speaking with the Duke of

Coke. The distraction was ended with the taller of the two women taking

his elbow and leading him upstairs. He allowed himself to be led away

from the party and up to one of the corner bedrooms. It was pleasantly

cool this evening, and he sat on the bed. "What would you have of us,

governor?" one of the women asked.

This was comfortable territory. He liked being in command of his simple

pleasures. "Undress one another," he said. He had already forgotten which

was which. It did not matter to him, he cared not for those dreadful

Irish names anyway. The shorter turned around and let the other unlace

her dress. "Slowly. Touch," Marbry ordered. He watched as the hands of

one reached around and stroked and caressed the breasts of the other.

His own sex raged hard within his pants, demanding to be freed. He told

himself to wait: he would have his way with these creatures all in his

good time. His patience had always been his strength. He watched them

touch as they undressed, taking their time, knowing that they were

getting paid for every second that they spent with him.

And they seemed to be enjoying his watching. Or were they enjoying each

other? "Finish, and then come remove my clothing."

They did as they were told. At least they were obedient. He found that

quality charming in women, regardless of its origin, in fear or in

money. His heart sped as their hands were on his body, unclasping the

buttons of his shirt and pants. His sex sprang free and the smaller one

instantly had her hands on it, stroking the length of it. "Oh, sir,"

she gasped. "It is a monster!"

He enjoyed the sound of that. A monster of a prick. It befitted a

man admired for the terrors he instilled in the natives of whatever

Godforsaken land he had been appointed to administer. "Take it in your

mouth," he demanded.

She looked up into his eyes apprehensively. men in the islands were

rarely clean. Being asked to mouth an unwashed Caribbean prick was

degrading. Marbry wondered if she would object, but she closed her eyes

and placed the head of his prick against her lips. He watched her inhale,

smelling it, trying to decide if it would be as foul as a pirate's. Of

course, it would not. Marbry had some sense of cleanliness. He preferred

not to itch every moment of every day, even if the clothing of the

islands itself seemed to make that impossible.

She took it into her mouth. He sighed with pleasure as her tongue slipped

along the length of his prick. The other sat to his side; he stroked her

breasts absentmindedly. The physical pleasure of her attentions aroused

in his heart a burning desire to take her, to have his way with her sex.

"Stop." She backed off. "You," he said, pointing to the one to his left,

"attend to me."

"Sir?"

He pushed her back onto the bed and spread her thighs. He reached for the

other one. "Get on top." She did as he asked, straddling her partner,

face to face. "Kneel." They were arranged, face to face, one atop the

other, their pudendas exposed to his eyes. "Kiss."

They did as he ordered. Their mouths pressed together, and he was pleased

to see that they had no particular experience at that. They were not

accustomed to the illicit pleasures of women together. He got behind the

one who knelt and waggled his prick at the gate of her sex. She was not

especially ready for him, but he did not care much. He pressed his sex

between her pink lips and burrowed his way into her body. She moaned

what Marbry hoped was at least something of an objection; it was not

right for a woman to really enjoy the pleasures of the flesh. That was

a thing for men.

He grabbed her hips and began a brutal assault against her sex. He bore

into her, his eyes greedily watching his prick sink into her and return

undaunted. A grunt from the bottom woman, used as their platform, their

mattress, was a joy to his ears. His hands creased the flesh where he

dug his fingers into his choice, and the bed groaned under the force of

three people engaged in such an outrage of nature.

He pulled out and with a forceful shove pushed the one on top aside,

plunging down into the other one. "My Lord!" she gasped as he entered her,

his cock taking her completely. He ravished her with as much energy as

the last one.

"I said I would have my way with both, and I shall make sure of it,"

he said through clenched teeth. His need would not be denied for much

longer, and in one dim grunt of pleasure he climaxed within her.

He turned over in bed. "Leave me," he gasped. "Take your clothes and

leave me."

"Did we displease you?"

"No. I just would like to be alone." He lay down on the bed and waited for

his heart to stop beating quite so powerfully. At his age, such strength

was not to be exercised often, he knew, and he feared that someday it

would give out on him. He did not know or care if tonight or any night

he had sired a bastard with any of the wenches who worked here. All he

cared about was that he live long enough to sire a real family, one of

which he could be proud. And now, after such an intense fucking, he was

so very hot that he could not stand to be touched. He did not want those

women around-- the heat of their bodies and thestench of their class

were more than he could bear at the moment.

The money. That was all that mattered, in the final analysis. The money,

and getting out of Jamaica. He had the one, and the other would be coming

soon. And he had one loose end to tie up. The Harcourt family. The two

halves of which must be kept apart.

Or killed.
