The sirens have been evacuated to a remote island after years of being pillaged and murdered for their ancestors crimes. Though the sirens enjoy their peaceful life on their new, lone island, food is growing scarce, resources are becoming more limited, and with no males in the species, reproduction is impossible.

Ember has broken the rules before. She has swam to the human shores and seen humans. Unfortunately, it's not all the glamor that fairytales boast. She returns to the sea, battered and bloody, but her battle is over.

Until she is chosen to go back to the humans. She is elected to marry a prince in need of a wife and strengthen bonds with the humans again, but the world she sees is worse than the one she fled from.

Starlites are impossible to love. The human fell in love anyways. There is an age old story - some call it a myth, some believe it to be history. Nevertheless, the fact is that there exist three different species who look alike. First are the underwater dwellers - the nymphs. The myth says that they are cursed never to find love. They are all females and mate with humans. The humans die immediately afterwards. Second are the starlites. They live among the highest mountain peaks unreachable for humans. They can fly, and their hearts are cold as snow. They are cursed never to feel love or get loved by anyone. The third is the human race. Humans can feel love, get love, cherish it and are hence considered worthy to rule them all. The story revolves around a starlite soldier Sophia Antofurota who leaves the army to join the Guardians. The Guardians are a team of starlites who work for the humans. Neal is a manipulative, scheming human prince who offered the job to Sophia only because he is in love with her. Sophia gradually finds out that the royalty is hiding many secrets but never suspects that she can have any part to play in their schemes. Sophie's character drawing by @Lady-Emerald

To give mercy to the humans is to be weak, but mercy is all their Princess is made of. Aelila Corearien is the opposite of any other siren. She's selfless, affectionate, incapable of a kill: weak. When the humans poison her kind with a new deadly weapon after years of not attacking, it costs Aelila one of her own and her mother's impending wrath. The Siren Queen sends her daughter on land to carry out her revenge: to kill the human King once and for all. Aelila then finds herself sent into the midst of the human royal court to fulfill her mother's biding, but there's one problem. Aelila can't kill, and she doesn't want to become the monster the deed would make her.
