Beneath the Waves, Secrets Await: dive into a hidden realm where the line between fairy-tales and nightmares blur, in this mysterious world of romance, magic, and mermaids.

My move to Ireland was supposed to be a fresh start, after the tragic death of my parents. Instead, I found myself tangled in a chilling series of murders. As I pry open the cryptic chapters of my mother's hidden past, I'm caught in a treacherous current of intrigue, magic, and desire, pulled by two mysterious men: Sebastian, whose mystique and power are as deep as the ocean, and Ethan, whose allure is darkened by whispers of witchcraft and occult. Neither are quite what they seem.

With each tide, ancient powers stir within me-powers that could either save or condemn the merrow, an ancient race of mermaids lurking beneath the ocean's surface. As a pawn in a savage war that blurs the line between mortals and myths, I am both hunter and prey.All Rights Reserved

Deep Sea by shayoung7

The sea "The sea... it's not just our home, it's our everything. It's where my family's secrets hide, where our history whispers through the currents. Every wave carries a story, every tide a lesson. I feel the sea's heartbeat, its pulse echoing mine. My family's legacy is woven into the sea's fabric. I feel proud to be a guardian of these secrets, a keeper of our mermaid traditions.(by meta) The sea is a cold, unforgiving abyss, A graveyard of lost souls, where darkness dismiss. Its waves crash against the shore, a mournful dirge, A reminder of the horrors that lurk beneath. In its depths, terrors lurk, unseen and unknown, Monsters that feast on fear, and souls overthrown.....(by draven) The sea.... my home It is my everything, it is a part of me I love the sea and the sea loves me Why? I hate the sea, the sea left me Am I not good enough It's gone The sea has a significant meaning to everyone for me it reminds me of home, how I feel safe in her hands, she's my home but then she left me with all the burdens, she is gone, never to be seen again, maybe in the Dreamland, but who I'm I kidding she kept visiting everyone in the dream except me What do you think of the sea?

The Power of Swan Cove by spicycactusbeans

A few weeks ago, Luke and Heidi made up and got back together. You'd probably know they would, like, doesn't that happen in every breakup story? If worse comes to worse, the girl probably gets a new boyfriend. Well, back to this story. After they made up, bad things start to happen. First, it happens to one. Then, twenty mermaids. Then soon, every mermaid. What is going on, you may ask? It seems that merfolk are having their powers drained. Therefore, losing their tails. Arguments, fights. The merfolk who haven't been infected arguing with the ones that have about if they should erase their memories. After all, humans aren't supposed to know about mermaids. Before we know it, humans and mer will be at war. Again. What if it spreads to all mythical creatures? But how can Luke and Heidi stop this before it's to late? And the most important thing, who is the evil mastermind behind this epidemic that is plaguing all mers...and maybe all mythical creatures?

A New Tide Rising by jms777

[COMPLETED] After completing her task of going to ground to bring her sister back home, a mermaid - Amaya - is drawn back to the small island of Linda Cove to find a young woman with whom she had a brief encounter during her time there. She yearns to find out if the feelings she experienced for this human were real, or just a passing infatuation borne out of intrigue for an unfamiliar creature. ***** This is a companion story to What the Tide Brings, in which Amaya's sister - Kaelin - is rescued by a human boy and harbored by his unknowing family, but Kaelin has a secret that could bring danger to her newfound friend. I suggest reading What the Tide Brings first for continuity's sake, but this story can be read on its own. It's pretty much self contained, except for a few references to characters and events from What the Tide Brings. *****

Mystical (Mystical #1) (Revising) by ArielleWeekly

Gentle ripples passed over her, a watery caress that contrasted with her growing unease. Blinking slowly, Eliza tried to make sense of her situation. She found herself submerged, an unexpected aquatic world unfolding around her. Panic crept in as her ankles remained bound, immobilized as if by an unseen force. An attempt to move her arms yielded no results - they were ensnared in an unyielding grip. Seaweed, sinuous and trailing, wrapped itself around her legs with an almost possessive hold. Every movement was thwarted by the constricting tendrils, her struggles mirrored by the rippling sea plants. An urgency to breathe set in, her chest tightening in a desperate plea for air. But the very element that should sustain her had become a stifling barrier. A strand of slimy seaweed clung to her lips, smothering her mouth and nose. It seemed as if the water itself had turned against her, a sinister transformation that threatened to consume her.

Ocean's Justice by DemelzaCarlton

A mysterious castaway. A Scottish hero determined to protect her. Can they survive the storm? Cast adrift on the Indian Ocean, Maria carries a terrible secret. Wherever she goes, death soon follows, and she's powerless to prevent it. William McGregor boarded the SS Trevessa in search of adventure, but he gets more than he bargained for when he saves the mysterious Maria from the sea. She can't tell them her tragic tale, so the superstitious sailors make up their own stories - and some would sacrifice her to the waves to save themselves from the coming storm. When the sharks start circling and the storm closes in, are sirens more than just a myth? A tiny taste of what's in store: My defiance was futile. What did it get me? A small raft drifting across the Indian Ocean, with nothing but the sound of waves and the smell of salt and coal-smoke. Smoke meant a ship. I was saved. I squinted into the sunlight, but the waves hid the vessel from me. Maybe I was looking the wrong way. I didn't have the strength to sit up and see. Rough hands seized me. I struggled, but my weakness won. Blue eyes drifted above, the same colour as the ocean below. A tangle of wiry seaweed obscured the rest of the man's face. "It's all right, lass. I'll take care of you." Darkness took me first. This book has been published and is available wherever you buy good ebooks.

The rose keepers by Skyla6274

In a world once divided by ancient magic, each species lived in secluded realms. Mermaids ruled the deep oceans, elves thrived in enchanted forests, orcs built their strength in rugged caves, and dragons soared over the sky's peaks, divided between ice and fire. Goblins living in the swamps of the marshlands. Shapeshifters wandered in shadows, and the sky people dwelled in sky realms, distant from earthly matters. For centuries, these territories remained separate, each guarding its own secrets. But this balance shattered when war erupted, spreading darkness and destruction across the land. Homes were destroyed, families lost, and the world itself bore deep scars. Only after devastation did the realms realize that their isolation had been their downfall. From the ashes, a fragile peace emerged, with old enemies becoming allies. In the aftermath, a new generation arose-9 teenagers born amidst hope for unity. Tasked with an unprecedented mission, they must traverse an ancient labyrinth that holds the keys to their world's history and potential salvation. Brought together by fate, young members of various races-mermaids, orcs, dragons, elves, and others-struggle to bridge the gaps between their differing ways of life. This is a tale of ancient magic, clashing realms, and tentative alliances, where the fate of the world rests in the hands of those who carry both the legacy of war and the hope of a new beginning.

In Too Deep? by Kristen243

Hi my name is Waverley Ocean Bay. And me and my dad are moving to a new town, Yay! Note the sarcasm! Anyway I love swimming. And I don't know my mom & I'm an only child. Which sucks! And I'm 5"4 so I have short people problems. Hi I'm Alexander and I guess you could say I'm a bad ass vamp. But I'm waiting for someone to catch my attention. So far no luck. What happens when these two are thrown into each others path? Can't trust anyone or thing but each other, uncovering secrets, unwelcome changes, & enemies by the dozen. Follow these two as they struggle to survive their enemies & themselves! And face their own dark past, that threaten to destroy everything they hold dear. ~~~ This is completely unedited so read at your own risk. This story was written by a sugar induced, hyper teen who went with the flow. I had no predestined plot to follow and each chapter was spur of the moment. So you have been warned. However, I hope you enjoy the pure craziness of it!!!
