His pupils were blown as his gaze tracked me avidly yet the expression on his alien face was what I would consider confused, perhaps bewildered, more than anything.
A merman? No. I'd seen drawings and paintings of the mer-people hanging in art galleries or scribbled within the sketchbooks of besotted sailors before. And unless people were looking at them through rose tinted, heart shaped glasses, his species was definitely something else.
He was something entirely more sinister. A siren.

When Mermen Run From Their Demons
Parts 1/4 are done. Part 2 is being written. (ManxMan) Zac Triton is nobody's hero, especially after the events that led to his mother's death. When he's around, the sound of his voice alone can make you do things. Anything. Whatever he wants. You cannot trust him, or even yourself when he's around. But people forget that, and it doesn't help that he's also the Prince of The Merfolk. The semester after he turns nineteen, he gets sent off to an elite university for supernatural creatures. While there, he gets acquainted with the infamous Trevor Brooks, universally and solidly hated by everyone and their moms. Why? Because he's the first demon in history to be allowed to leave their prison of Hell. A series of sinister events lead Zac and Trevor to believe they're being haunted by some very pissed off demons, and if they don't figure out how to stop them, the consequences will be horrifying. The main question is, just how messed up can Zac get before they break him? And is Trevor really falling in love, or just falling under his siren song?

The siren and the serpent ⚣
❝Thaddeus Wraith had successfully destroyed the fortress within my head and scrambled my senses. Which was strange. How had I gone from fearing somebody, maybe even loathing them.

I craved the chaos that we had together, and by gods did it intoxicate me to know that I had him. 𝒜𝓁𝓁 𝑜𝒻 𝒽𝒾𝓂. Every damaged, broken piece, every intrusive thought that came into his mind when those green eyes bore into mine. I had it all. ❞ ━━━━━━━━༻❁༺━━━━━━━━ Orion Vale was meant to drown when a storm took him at sea--but instead, a siren's magic spared his life.

Torn between the captain's relentless hunt for sirens and his destiny, Orion must navigate a dangerous path where every choice could lead to betrayal or salvation.
