Axel has spent his entire life trapped by the rules that govern his species, taught to fear humans and avoid them at all costs. His father has strived his entire life to keep him within the walls of their Kingdom where he is safe. But Axel's curiosity cannot be contained, no matter how hard his father tries, and when his path crosses with Samuel, a human prince with a past of his own, Axel can't help but give in to his curiosity.
As the two grow closer, Axel soon finds the boundaries of his curiosity blurring as he begins to develop feelings he could have never anticipated for Samuel. But in the shadows of the waters that surround the Kingdom of Latistan, an old threat lurks and threatens to bring up the trauma of Axel's past and destroy everything he holds dear.
This story is an Achillean twist on the story of "The Little Mermaid" (inspired by both the Disney animated feature and the original tale written by Hans Christen Anderson)

Carnations in the Alley | manxman | (Historical Romance)
| ManxMan | - Historical Fiction - Strong SEXUAL Content | Tossed aside for his sexual preferences, a young lord is abandoned by his family. But, he isn't alone for long as a towering, rather intimidating and...handsome man happens upon him at the lowest point in his life. However, this man doesn't look upon him with judgment in his eyes. There is a sort of unspoken sympathy, and it shows itself well enough when he is swept off his feet and taken to the man's home. Untouched, unjudged and given a place to stay, this young lord will come to find he's been given a second chance. But he's afraid. Of what? (This story is based on a character introduced in 'The Beauty of Coincidence'. You don't need to read that one, but a piece of useful information would be that Edgar works for someone named Norman Ramsey, a man who has accepted that his own son is gay (he is not homophobic even though it's the 1820s, and Edgar is extremely loyal to the name of Ramsey). Enjoy!)Complete
