WARNING: this was written when I was 11 years old, so most of the unedited chapters are a little bit cringy, but regardless i do hope you enjoy! ^^

Callie Hydale has always had something peculiar about her that separated her from normal folk. Her old townspeople would tell you it's because she was a freak, an anomaly, a strange being. But the ocean would tell you different. When Callie's wings spring free, when she escapes from the clutches of her abusive uncle and manipulative cousin, the possibilities she never dreamed of start. For instance, the shimmering tail that replaced her legs after she nearly drowned. As she's lured under the depths of the sea, she meets merfolk and mer-creatures, underwater kingdoms and schools for sea magic. Callie learns her true potential. Will Callie find her heart's greatest desires? Will she find friendship, rivalry, power, knowledge, happiness, and hate? What does the fates have in store for her? Will her friends find out her secret, her human form? But within the blue,  placid sea, within Callie's new blissful paradise, a danger awaits, lurking in the shadows of the ocean. A threat, once thought gone, is rising once more. And Callie and her new friends are the new targets. What role do they play? Why are they, of all merfolk, being hunted? What secrets will be revealed to them, the truths and lies? Callie and her friends are going to find out, and they won't stop until it ends.

Sea Of Dreams  by EvangelineNott
9 parts Complete Mature
Historical romance about a human girl and a merman. [Preview] A long arm snaked around her waist, pulling her through the current. Adrenaline hit her like a crushing force, and she saw whisps of white silk clouding around her vision. She began to struggle vehemently, still holding onto her sketchpad as tightly as possible. She raised the book above her head and beat it against the iron body, dragging her deeper. She felt her sketchpad suddenly get snatched out of her hand. The flash of white crossed in front of her and two eyes, dark as death, watched her so closely that she could see nothing else. Her chest throbbed with the desperate need to breathe, and she began to struggle again, thrashing her limbs as much as she possibly could to unleash herself from the creature's locked hold. Powerless, exhausted, and drowning, Victoria's eyes fought to remain open as she ceased fighting her fate and grew still. The pain in her chest seemed to pulsate throughout her entire body, and she felt the darkness coming on, but she ignored it as she remained listelessly suspended in the deep abyss. The black eyes remained fixated on her face as if she were the only thing that existed. Her eyes fluttered closed, but not before she saw the obsidion depths of the creature's eyes swirl and turn to a dark shade of sapphire blue.
