Summary
As Sirius led me around the room, I took a deep breath and looked up at him firmly.
“So, was it a bet or a dare?”
“What are you talking about?” he asked, shiftily enough to tell me my guess had been right. When his eyes drifted to where James was sitting by the far wall, I grinned.
“Don’t play dumb. We both know you’d never ask me to dance in a million years. Not with ninety-five percent of the girls here gagging for it, and, well, I’m not. Besides, Potter just gave you the thumbs up.”
He groaned. “Are we really that obvious? Okay, yes, it was a dare.”Series

Summary
"You have to come with me," he shook his head.
His tone offered little room for argument, but she didn't care a bit.
"Why?" Theodora demanded.
"Because, Miss Byrne, to the great sorrow of the both of us, my saving you means that you are my responsibility until another steps forward to take over that role. Should you get yourself killed out here through sheer force of foolishness, it is a stain upon my character as well as your own. Now, will you come with me, or will you force me to drag you?"
**
When Theodora Byrne wakes up one morning, no longer in her cozy modern bed, but adrift at sea - and on a sea that's home to pirates, both undead and living, no less - she has no choice but to rely on the charity, and the eventual kindness, of Captain James Norrington if she wants to survive. She has no way of knowing the feelings that kindness will soon foster...nor what she'll be willing to risk for a chance to save him from his tragic fate before the end.
