The Sea Maiden

The captain's cold voice snapped me back to reality and his hard stare kept me in place. “Leucothea, don't forget our deal,” he merely said, making me shiver with numbness when I noticed he was holding the whistle in his hand.
Everything that I was seeing suddenly turned black and deadly. My stomach clenched when I remembered what I had to do. . .

Beauty is a gift to some, but to Leucothea it’s a curse. Destined to be the Queen of Atlantis, she has a duty to her people; betrothed to a prince who she doesn’t even know.

The Sea Witch had given her what she always wanted, although she can’t be sure whether she had made a grave mistake. . .
