This is the year she's supposed to pick a suitor and take over her mothers rule. Except ruling is the last thing Scylla wants. So here's the plan. If she picks a mer, so despicable, so innapropriate and daft he could not possibly rule by her side, her mother would have no choice but to deny her chosen mate. Conveniently Scylla in her 'heartbroken' state, would buy herself another year of respit.
Charybdis the sea hag has a plan. Desguise himself as a strapping young Mer. Infiltrate the yearly gathering and win the affections of the new matron to be. Such power should not be in the hands of a snot nosed brat anyway. No. He'd be a much better leader than she could ever be. All that was left is to work his charms...

The Sun Doesn't Bite, But I Do(Solangelo)(Vampire×Werewolf)(COMPLETED)
(I did get this idea from the Wattpad Original Bite Me which is also now a webtoon comic called Love Bites. So the only thing I plan to use from said book is that Werewolf blood is desirable to Vampires and the fated mates thing. Also a feud between the Werewolves and Vampires which is obvious in any supernatural book. But I'm still giving the author of Bite Me the credit for this idea. Also, I found out they love PJO specifically Solangelo so woo!) Nico di Angelo comes from a very long line of Vampires, his father was the head of one of the largest covens, after the death of his sister. He was the next heir. He didn't want to be the heir. Hell, he didn't even want to be a vampire. But you can't help what you were born into... He was attending a University with his cousins Percy and Jason and his best friend Leo when a guy Nico had never seen before ran into his life at the University capturing much attention. He had tan skin with freckles, a mop of golden, curly, blond hair. Not to mention the brightest smile. Nico immediately felt drawn to him but what's worse... to his blood. He did everything he could to avoid him but that's when he got the news... Werewolves were back in Manhattan...Complete
Monster Beneath The Surface (Solangelo AU)
Everyone in town knows about the sea monster. Every night, he goes into town to find his prey. He lures them in with his voice, only to bring them back to the ocean, to eat them. Few survive this, and the people who do, they lose their mind, like they were cursed. You can only gather from them that he was beautiful, his voice was like an angel's, and that when he took you into the ocean, he became a monster. He only hunted young men, women, teens, and the occasional twelve-year old. It was terrifying, because the people had no way to stop him. Every night, someone would go missing, or come back insane. They knew he lived in the ocean, and when people tried to bomb the area where they thought the monster lived, they would either be cursed, or just eaten by the sea monster himself. And the people who came back insane, they would always wander over the fact that the monster had not even a scratch on him. Teens, young men and women would fear for their lives, and lock themselves in their houses at night. But only one person refused to hide, either in bravery or utter stupidity. That person was Will Solace. So basically, this story is based on the cover art of the book. I just thought it was such a great idea and wanted to put it to story. I saw another person do this and they used the same cover art, and I hope you guys like my version! I, personally very much like it and hope you guys do to! (I don't own any of the characters or art work that appears in this fanfic. All of the characters belong to Rick Riordan.)Complete
Return (mxm)
I have been on display for the humans as long as I can remember. I'm nothing but a trained seal, a show pony. Something to "ooh" and "ahh" at by young and old their hands and faces pressed against the glass of my prison. I follow every order. I obey every command. I have to, though I resent his control over my life with every fiber of my being. If I disobey, if I become too much of a problem, he may give me exactly what I wish for. He may let me return. -This story has depictions of violence, depression, panic attacks, gore.

Everyone Deserves to be Happy (Solangelo)
Percy finds out about Nico's crush earlier than planned. And it's on neither of their terms. Until Percy gives him some good advice. Advice Nico takes to heart. But a demigod's life is never easy, and with a new prophecy and a new quest even darker forces are looming over the horizon, threatening to destroy the sunshine that Nico and another half-blood we all thought was gone have finally found. Placed during very beginning of Blood of Olympus/ between House of Hades and Blood of Olympus at the beginning. Then it switches to the end of Blood of Olympus. This is a solangelo story line. If you have not read Blood of Olympus, or do not ship solangelo, then I kindly ask you to reconsider your life choices. And then go do those things. I tried to stay true to the characters, I really truly did. If you're reading and you think I did something wrong, please let me know (but. you know. kindly.). This is also still a first draft, so you know, it's not perfect. All rights go to Rick Riordan the troll who stoll (geddit?) my life. The first chapter is based on a some fanart (it was a cartoon) I read but the rest are my own ideas. Also, the original image on the cover is not something I drew (I wish). It's Viria's. And then the whole idea for that cover belongs to xNoMusicNoLifeComplete
