The man placed Aurora on the sofa. Her clothes were soaked through, and he struggled to remove her heavy coat.

From the way she was dressed, it was clear she wasn't an ordinary woman. Every piece on her was a luxury brand, and the diamond studs on her ears sparkled brilliantly under the light.

She was beautiful, with skin so fair that the man couldn't help but stare-until he was lost in her radiance.

"Justin, I heard you saved a woman?" A loud female voice echoed from nearby.

"Mrs. Woolf, she's still breathing. Can you take a look at her? I'm freezing-I need to grab a shower."

"This girl is stunning. Look at that flawless skin. Did you fish a Snow White out of the sea?" Mrs. Woolf teased.

"She's drenched. I'll need to get her out of those wet clothes to warm her up. You go next door and take your shower," Mrs. Woolf commanded, unfazed by the man's intimidating reputation.

"Fine. I'll carry her to the tub."

The man carefully lifted the unconscious woman and placed her in his bathtub. She lay there motionless, completely at his mercy.

"You're staring awfully hard. Don't tell me you've fallen for this girl?" Mrs. Woolf's voice was sly as she watched him, transfixed.

"You know how it is on this ship. We're surrounded by men. Even if a female fly buzzed by, I'd stare at it for a while."

"Oh, really? Funny-I heard you saved another woman before, but you didn't seem this interested in her."

"I can't stand women who talk too much. Just check on her, will you? I'll be outside."
