He's 30 she's 16 will he get what he wants?

Bella and her parents were on a ship bound for New York. Bella had been dreaming about falling in love with a handsome captain. She also wished to encounter pirates on the high seas. Her wishes were granted. Their ship was hijacked by pirates and she falls for the handsome pirate captain.

She had never encountered a man as handsome as Captain Edward Cullen. His strong physiques, his sparkling green eyes left her feeling weak. Part of her resents him because his life was filled with all the adventures she was deprived of because of her sex, but his touch ignited a yearning for forbidden intimacies. She knew no good could come of letting the pirate's charms seduce her, but her body cannot deny the sensual feelings which courses through her every time she thinks of the captain or the passion that has been unleashed in her dreams.

Common sense and self-preservation cautions Edward against having a relationship with Bella, but he cannot control the emotions she has awakened in him. He dedecided to have one night with her. One night of lovemaking that they would never forget. Will they be able to let each other go at the end of the voyage?
