Her entire life, Melanie had learned the hard way that you couldn't trust people, that there was always something lurking in the shadows. After what she had gone through with Grant Ward, that statement was more true than it had ever been. She had promised herself that she wouldn't see Ward, that she wouldn't listen to the lies that she thought he would tell her. Yet when her team needs her to, she breaks that promise to herself. Ward knows secrets about Melanie's life that she didn't even know, information about the people from her past, including who experimented on her when she was just a teenager. Is Melanie ever going to be able to forgive what Ward did to her and the team? Or will Ward be her downfall?

Melanie was paranoid, always watching over her shoulder to ensure that danger was far behind her, which wasn't uncommon for a hacker of the Rising Tide. When SHIELD show's up in her and Skye's lives, she finds herself peering over her shoulder a lot more, unable to trust anyone, keeping secrets about her life that could lead to her breaking the teams trust. Secrets are dangerous in SHIELD, especially since you never know a spy's true intentions. You never know what people are willing to use against you. You never know who is a friend and who is an enemy. Is Grant Ward the one person that she could find herself being able to trust? To open herself up to? Maybe it's better to be as cold as ice.

Steven Grant's life is anything but extraordinary. He wakes up in his flat, feeds his fish, and then heads to work at a museum gift shop. He leaves his mum voicemails everyday, but doesn't seem to ever hear back, aside from postcards. His sleeping habits, however, have been forcing him to stay awake, thus making him tired and anxious throughout his day. His mind tends to get the best of him, and the only time he ever seems to be able to focus is when he's around his co-worker. Cleo has always found Steven quite peculiar, but she's never been one to judge. There's something about him that she just can't quite put her finger on. And despite Steven's longing to get closer to her, there's something holding him back, or rather, someone.

The tides are high and the tides are low. The tides connect the sea to the land as they fall on the sand. The world above to the world below. While most only belong to one, very few are lucky to belong to both. Mermaids are thought to be part of fiction, but in a world where Gods are real and aliens frequent earth, they are part of reality. Mermaids are sea dwellers who grow legs once dry, and one mermaid, in particular, may be out of her depth when she comes face to face with an Ancient God of the sea and of the land. The God whose people call him K'uk'ulkan, and whose enemies call him Namor. cover by @angwritess
