    “Are you angry?”

    It’s a simple question without a simple answer, at least not for Rafael.

    “I’m disappointed,” he eventually settles for saying. It’s as close to being able to describe what he’s feeling about the entire situation as he can get. “But none of them were exactly willing participants. They aren’t the villains here.”

    “They had choices,” Sonny says bluntly. Rafael smiles a little at the gruffness in his tone.

    “Yes,” he agrees, “but if someone held your well-being over my head, I’d do just about anything, too.”

    Summary

    Stede Bonnet is dying, has been for a long time. He’s known about it for going on 12 years, an inoperable brain tumour. Yep. Right in the centre, getting its filthy little paws into all sorts of juicy parts of Stedes brain, just sitting there and causing all sorts of havoc till the day it finally finishes him off. At first the idea of death terrified him to his core but by now he’s pretty much accepted it, being terminally ill is just a part of his personality at this point, he’s learned to live with it.

    It’s not until a sexy, long haired, leather clad specimen of a man comes into his life does he reconsider how fulfilling life could actually be.
