Choi San was a very possessive captain. You were his and no one else's. If anyone else laid a finger on you, there would be deathly consequences.

His arms wrapped around your midriff as you leaned over the maps spread out across the table, your finger tracing along a dotted line.
"What do you think?" San asked, his nose nuzzling the side of your neck.
"I think this passage will be safe."
"Perfect, we don't wanna run into any enemy ships."
"They never sail in these waters here." You pointed on the map. "We'll be safe."
"My gem is so smart." He hummed, pressing a kiss to your neck.
Your eyes fluttered closed, allowing him to trail his lips over your skin. It was times like this that you relished in. The two of you often shared intimate moments like this, especially since you were by his side almost all the time.

When you peeled your eyes open, you noticed the pathway on the map, your gaze trailing to the destination, the name of the town seeming familiar.
"You said you wanted to dock in this town to restock supplies?" You inquired.
"Mhm." San hummed, the tip of his nose trailing up the side of your face. He pressed a kiss to your temple before speaking again. "Why do you ask?"
"I think I remember that town."
"You'll find out in a couple days when we dock."

Later that day when shades of evening settled over the skies, you, San, and the rest of the crew gathered in the galley for dinner. The cook had prepared a nice soup for everyone, along with some fresh fish that had been caught earlier that day.
You watched with admiration as San stood on the table, telling his crew stories and tales of adventure. He was always an incredible storyteller. His enthusiasm and unique way of recalling events made everyone feel like they were experiencing the narrative firsthand.
"And then I plunged the sword right through his chest!" San finished, mimicking the action with his weapon. "And I used this very sword."
The crew let out cheers as San struck poses with the blade.
"This one is a true story." He turned to you with a grin. "Isn't that right, love?"
"It is." You nodded. "I saw it with my own eyes."

After dinner, you and San retired for the night, going to his quarters where you prepared for bed. Your lover laid under the covers, his arms folded behind his head as he watched you move about the room, his bare chest on display, the light from the bedside lantern flickering across his toned abdomen.
You moved towards the bed, San's eyes lingering on you as you got closer, finally crawling underneath the covers with him.
"Another wonderful day at sea, right, my love?"
"Right." You nodded, letting out a sigh as you got comfortable.
San reached over, blowing out the lantern by the bed, cloaking the room in darkness. Only the moonlight seeping in through the window illuminated the room.
You felt a pair of lips press softly against your temple, a soft smile pulling at your lips.
"Finally some alone time." San murmured, his hand running up your side. "I look forward to moments like this where it's just you and me." His lips trailed down to your jawline, your eyes fluttering closed. "I can have you all to myself, just how I like it."
His words mixed with the feeling of his lips against your neck sent a rush of heat through you. His thumb massaged your hip, squeezing it every once in a while.
You turned to face him, his prominent cheekbones glowing in the moonlight. Your fingers absentmindedly traced over the side of his face, moving down to his pouty lips. As the pad of your thumb ran over San's bottom lip, he kissed it before softly taking hold of your hand.
"I love you so much." He murmured.
"I love you too."
His hand let go of yours, moving to cup the back of your neck, tugging you towards his lips. Your eyelids fluttered closed as your mouths moved feverishly against each other.
