Carter groaned softly. He healed exceptionally fast with Merella around him. He tried moving around to find her. She was no longer in his arms.

Wait.

He couldn't move either. Much. He opened his eyes to be met with a pair of chocolate brown ones. He knew those eyes well. " Tye?" He croaked out. Carter winced at the sound. Not to mention the rawness.

" Thank goddess your awake finally. I don't know the first thing about mermaids or healing them. Can you move? Are you okay? "

" What?" He asked feeling bombarded with questions left and right.

" Do you hurt? Where does it hurt? What can I do to get you up, and in the water with Merella?" Tye asked putting his hands on his hips. " I could just shake the hell out of you right now. Showing up suddenly in the water fountain, which is now red thanks to you two, bleeding out. What the freaking hell happened??!"

Carter chuckled. " Throats rather sore. Some water would be greatly appreciated. "

Tye nodded, left the tent, and came back with a cold bottle of water. " Drink up. Ella needs her mate. I need an explanation. Jason's worried, the pack is freaked out. Carter they almost had a sushi bar, and wolf buffet on display. You two were tore up. "

Jason came up behind them. Carter slowly sipped the water, and sat up slowly. He felt so heavy. " Glad to see your awake Carter. " He sat on the ground, and pulled Tye down into his lap. " Ella's is stable for the moment. Our doctor is on the scene. Please tell us what you can recall. "

" We went to her homeland. You know undersea?" He gulped softly. " She had this pendant that gave me gills. Temporary, but cool. " He kind of chuckled. " But, it's dark down there. On our way Jellyfish swarmed us, Sharks attacked. Easy enough to fend off. The real threats were the Sirens. They've already moved in.. " He paused.

Tye cleared his throat. " Keep going. Keep drinking to. " He urged.

" We swam around her Father's palace for a while. Tried to figure out ways to get in. Luckily she knew a bunch of secret tunnels and stuff. Growing up there and all... She found me a trident to defend myself with. You don't know how much fun that was. Powerful.. " He shuddered remembering his time under water. " We found our way in through her old room. The palace is beautiful.. But, the Sirens have taken hold already. We couldn't find her father, so we went looking.. " He sighed.

" Poor Merella. The Sirens that took her father's palace arrested and beat her family. We found them in the dungeons. Cut up, bruised, attracting Sharks like crazy. Safe enough but still hurt. Then, they decided to swarm us. We got spotted somehow. They tried to drag her away, lock her up with the rest of the merfolk. But she fought back, and so did I. I killed them. Sirens. That trident is powerful. There was nothing left but chum for the Sharks...." He shuddered again. " There were to many though. Merella desperately talked with someone, and the next thing I knew Merella and I were darting through a portal of some kind. I was losing consciousness quickly, and she was already gone. I held her as tightly as I could, and felt a thud. " He shrugged softly. " that's all I can remember. "

Tye listened intently. Nothing made sense to him. It had only been around a year since Merella came for help. What the hell was going on? " They moved awfully fast didn't they?" He asked.

" No, not really. According to Ella they have been at it for a while. It would seem they waited for rhe right time to attack. " Carter answered. " I have to admit, killing isn't my favorite sport. I don't I use it. Using that trident made me like it even less. " He shook his head. " Not that I mind you or your pack. I swear. I know it is essential to keep our society safe. I'm just not cut out for it. "
