Scylla was different, unatural and horrifying... But beautiful and mysterious on the inside. Hidden between waves, between the planks that layered the pier, between the sand and waters, one would have to look carefully for her. Scylla didn't hide though, the sea hid her. And for the right reasons. The way her algae eyes punctured your heart. The way her tail shon with red. The way her skin was pearl white. There was something fishy about her.

Devouring the souls of the innocent, and surviving off human blood, Scylla was a monster. But not to everyone.

A tail about fish, failure and fantasies.

200 parts Complete Mature
[FULL KELS SERIES] When Ande wakes up on the bottom of the ocean with a fish's tail, she's not sure what she did wrong. Getting sacrificed by her island is a likely bet, but why---and why her---is a mystery. Out of her depth in an unfamiliar world, she soon finds herself wrapped up in the society of the Kels, the people who live under the sea. Desperate to get back to her island, she strikes an agreement with a squid-tailed boy whose sunny smile and knowledge of her language are a welcome assistance at first. Soon, though, she begins to sense that he's hiding something. Things take a turn for the worse when her way home gets complicated by the Kels' wars and several eerie myths about her people that may not be myths at all. The history of the Kels goes back farther than her own culture, and the harder she struggles to get back to land, the more the question arises: Does she belong in the water after all? ❖❖❖ Marked mature for darker themes and scenes, not spicy content.

The Weight of Waves by underdoor4
11 parts Complete Mature
Karmichael Torrance is mired in the green, steamy south of Charleston, South Carolina. The city as seen by someone who knows her shadows and walks the margins of her darker secrets. Kar is a drug mover living his life sans constraint, meeting any challenge that presents itself to this nihilistic young warrior. Recently supplanted to downtown Charleston from Jacksonville, he has established himself in the shadowy dregs of deep city bad business, keeping a presence where blood money moves in never ending waves. And speaking of waves, what is it that pulls Karmichael so strongly into the watery arms of the ocean? And who is this finned female creature that visits our (anti) hero during his nocturnal dreamscape? Is she real? What is she trying to express to Karmichael? Into all this falls Jahe Bennet, a native of the Lowcountry who has recently relocated back to Charleston after having survived a failed marriage. Her family is well to do and this enables Jahe to live above a boutique in the historic district on Broad Street. Her nightlife circle eventually flows into the pull of Karmichael and the two damaged souls find some sliver of recognition in each other. They cross paths several times, and after a meaningful first impression begin dating. Kar may not be a good guy, and he may not be honest, but he is always true. He opens to Jahe little by little, until, unfortunately, his other dangerous interests interrupt his best intentions.
