The Love Pirate

As Bertilla approached the veranda she heard her name mentioned by her hostess and a lady visitor.

"I cannot help thinking it is funny," the visitor said, "that Lord Saire — the Love Pirate — had to be shipwrecked with no one more exciting than an immature girl. Such a tiring encumbrance as she will certainly interfere with the many alluring ladies he plans to see in Singapore."

Bertilla suddenly felt her cheeks burning with humiliation. Now she knew that she must leave before Lord Saire returned — even if by so doing she left her whole heart behind with him. Better that she disappear into anonymity than be a burden to the man she loved!

Hot tears cascaded down her cheeks as she silently returned to her room to pack.
