And after saving her from death, they decided that she was very beautiful and would bring them a lot of money if they would sell her as a slave. Kimberley regretted leaving the duke because she found out that she was really in love with him. But she had no way to escape and she found herself enclosed in a small rusty room. The duke was dying out of anxiety and nightmares started to haunt him until he was no more able to sleep. Duke Chester tried many days to forget about his nightmares but Kimberley's photo was carved in his mind and he found himself bound to her. He was thinking of her every night and one day he woke up and decided to put an end to his agony and suffering by looking for Kimberley.

Meanwhile, Kimberly found a small wounded boy in the same room she was imprisoned inside and she offered him help and took care of his wound, she reminded him of his mother and he related for her his sad story and told her he was abducted by pirates as well few years ago and was obliged to wear their clothes and be like them but he decided to help Kimberley escape.
