Summary
People were astonishingly predictable and easy to arrange once one understood what they feared to lose. And Norrington — honour-bound and desperate to be seen as something other than a disgrace — was almost painfully transparent.
Beckett had no intention of wasting the opportunity.
"Gratitude," he said mildly, "need not always be spoken. But it should be understood."
"Your Lordship?"
Beckett leaned back in his chair. "You are a naval officer of His Majesty’s service, Admiral. You understand obedience. You understand hierarchy."
A pause. The faint creak of the ship settling around them.
"And you understand what is owed." -

Summary
“Why did you do it?”
“Think about it, Cutler.”
He did. He was always thinking. Thinking and calculating and bracing. Thinking wasn’t the problem. Feeling, maybe.
She looked at him like she hated what she was about to say. Like it hurt her, too.
“Look at you.”
The corner of his mouth twitched. So that was it. That was her grand excuse. All this time, and she still didn’t understand.
~*~
When Lord Cutler Beckett learns that the woman in his bed has been spying for his enemies, the solution seems simple: make her pay and move on. But nothing is ever simple, and even ruthless men have feelings. Unfortunately. And the hardest thing to master may be himself.

Summary
When James Norrington returns to Port Royal and gets promoted by Lord Beckett, he faces a stark ultimatum – any sign of misplaced loyalties, and he’s out.
The natural thing to do in this position is pretending to court someone to keep Beckett convinced he’s in Port Royal to stay. At least, that’s what Beatrice Nightingale, an aspiring composer stifled by the rigid social norms, suggests. And who would be a more suitable candidate than Beatrice herself?
Their ruse might not only benefit James in maintaining his post, but also help Beatrice with her own reasons for playing the game. Problem is, James and Bee aren’t the only ones with secrets – and sometimes, things aren’t as they seem.Or: The author thought it a great idea to combine the fake dating trope with her very own PotC-version of a Hellfire Club. It’s a lot, I know.
