Avani looked at the pizza store in front of her. Many passed by her, giving her glares and weird looks but Avani didn't care. All she could think about was food. And how her own step-mother disowned her. And the nurse's horrified face. And how warm her toes would be if she had just one match. Sighing, she walked to her corner around the garbage dump of a random store and laid down. She shut her eyes, not wanting to open them ever again. -ˋˏ✄┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈ Avani was just an ordinary girl, living in an ordinary life That is until she started barfing up garbage, oil, and plastic.

A queen is nearing the end of her 20s and has yet to marry and to make a proper heir to her throne. Instead, she has her lady consorts to play with. Her council will not leave her alone. She will not cave under pressure. A mermaid is pressured to shift into a human form and 'capture' a human man with her siren song to procreate and continue on her species. She is of the bloodline of a long-gone sea goddess. She also is the only one of her kind that can feel and fall in love. 14 years in the past, the queen and the mermaid met. The latter saving the former from a drowning at sea. Over a course of one summer, they became the best of friends. They separate because of their fates. Then happenstance has them reuniting again. Are they good friends from the past? Or something deeper and romantic?
