It took a few minutes for Admiral Hugo and his men to set up the two large masts and anchored them down. They moved the tables to the edges of the hall, and the large space opened up in the middle. Whiskey was a strong drink and I found myself giddy with it. That night's enjoyment was just getting started. People are following me so I know it's not the whole app but I can't follow anyone. Is anyone else having problems following people on wattpad.
