A mermaid and a man. What could possibly go wrong? ✯ That is when one is bound by the secrets of the sea while the other is drowning in the depths of his own suspicions... Set against the shores of Miami, Florida, @ru33ian's "𝐒𝐎𝐔𝐋" follows "Soul" Nadiyah Powell, a mermaid hiding in plain sight, and Kyzier Gaulden, your normal everyday guy, who is unknowingly tangled in a world he wasn't meant to understand. Their connection is undeniable, but as truths begin to surface, so do the dangers of a love that was never meant to be. Dec. 2023 - Present (ongoing; slow updates).

𝐒𝐩𝐢𝐧-𝐨𝐟𝐟 𝐭𝐨 𝐈𝐧 𝐇𝐞𝐫 𝐌𝐢𝐧𝐝 - Orianne was a lover girl, whom some considered a hopeless romantic, but she wouldn't dare let the opinions of others knock her off her pivot. She was a young woman who knew what she wanted, and to her, there was nothing wrong with that. She desired the husband, children, dates, random gifts, trips, family outings, and so on. Some would say the reason she can't keep a man is because her standards are high. Which is a ridiculous take. Yes, her standards may be "high," but that's because her father set the tone. She knows what she wants and how she's supposed to be treated, and if you're not giving her that, then you have to go. Out of the few men she has dealt with, she lets them know beforehand what she wants, and it's not her fault that they choose to lead her on under the impression that they wanted the same thing. Another reason men tend to leave her alone is because she's a woman of status, a woman of her word, and a woman about her business. She handles her own and has her own which tends to bruise a man's ego. When asked what she brings to the table, she has a solid answer. She doesn't just bring herself or her body-that's the bonus-she brings communication, trust, comprehension, stability, submission, commitment, and so on. The main question of the matter is, how will Miss. Orianne react when a 19 year old wants to sweep her off her feet and give her everything she wants and more? 𝐜𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐛𝐲 | 𝐦𝐞, @𝐫𝐨𝐲𝐚𝐚𝐥𝐭𝐲𝐛𝐫𝐢 ᝰ.ᐟ
