She pressed her lips to his. "I love you too."
Then, quicker than lightning, a crack echoed around the imposing stone walls. The silence was resounding. The sudden denouement of his death. No-one was breathing. Time stopped completely. Elise was the first to break the muteness.
"Wes?" She had breathed, her voice hitching. "Wes?"
One by one the adults around us began slipping beneath the water again. The punishment was over. All that was left was a man with a broken neck, and a mermaid with a broken heart.

Marine Love (boyxboy)
"Careful human." The...thing said in a concerned voice. "W-What are you, what d-do you want?" I shakily asked him, curling up my body protecting myself. "Shh human don't be afraid. You are my mate." What is a mate? Why did he bring me here? Who is he? Why is he looking at me like that? From the distance I put between us I could admire him more, and his tail. He really is beautiful. It was a deep teal green colour with gold and blue blended in with it that reminded me of his eyes. He was holding himself up with his arms looking at me curiously, head slightly bent to the side and all. "What are you, what do you want?" I asked slowly, my heartbeat had almost reduced to normal again but I was feeling a strange pull towards the creature in front of me. "I am a Merman and you are my mate." His voice was deep and sounded like music the way he spoke. But mate? "Mate?" I asked hoping to find out the way in which he directed this word. "My love," he paused looking into my hazel eyes. "Come closer human you are beautiful...and mine."Complete

His hand stroked down my cheek. 'My darling. I missed you so much.' And damn me to hell, but even with tears dried down my cheeks, I was shivering at the word 'my.' I shook my head. 'I don't know how ta say it, but-' I paused. A gleaming silver hook- his father's, I realised- pulled my chin up until my eyes were on his. 'But what, love?' I looked at him. 'I think I'm a tad bit crazy now.' He studied me for a moment like some sort of wild animal. Then he grinned. 'So am I.'

The Sea Nymph (f/f "Ariel" inspired romance/erotica)
My hand burned against hers, the coil in my lower belly winding up, begging for release. I immediately let go, a blush crawling up my neck. She looked me over, a predatory look falling onto that sharp and stunning face. Her pupils were blown like last night. I wanted to reach out, to touch her, to beg for her to ravish me. - Calypsa had seen ship wrecks far and wide, but none with a female captain so magnetic. Her eyes were the color of sea glass. Black and blue hair. She matched what Calypsa loved most, the ocean. The land was forbidden. It was meant for the humans alone, nymphs were a story, nothing but pirate gossip. Calypsa couldn't imagine the surface beyond fleeting moments when she was a child, but she couldn't ignore this calling. Especially when she had an excuse. To return what didn't belong to her, something that had never bothered her before.Complete
The Cursed Pirates
Her lips and chin wobbled as she backed down in the corner, with his each step towards her she took two steps back. "You smell delicious." He whispered in a low cold voice making a sob bubble in her throat. "N-no!" She stuttered as she shook her head in negative. Her wild red curls followed the movement of her head like waves. "Take off your clothes..." He rasped as his intense golden eyes peered at her like a hawk. "N-no! I w-won't let y-you touch m-me!" She stuttered as tears kissed her cheeks. He let out a dark throaty chuckle, mocking her. Sheer fear gripped her form at his words. "I will taste you!" He declared in his cold ruthless voice as those golden swirls of his eyes raked her form, leaving goosebumps on her body making her tremble back in tantalizing fear. Erotica (18+) SAMPLE!Complete

Mermaid Magic
"You're a what.?" He asked in disbelief. "I'm a mermaid. That's why I brought you here. To the place where I became one." I explained. "Avery, I don't believe you." He shook his head and started for the exit. A tear rolled down my cheek. After everything we've been through, he doesn't believe me.? "I can prove it.." I slowly turned to the water.

Song of a Siren
Caroline was shaped by grief, sharpened by betrayal, and sent back to the men who lit the match. Hunted through the waters her kind once ruled, she watched her brothers dragged from the sea and hung like a trophy by the very family that called themselves righteous. Now, years later, she walks into the lion's den-not as prey, but as the end of mercy. Zakaria, heir to the blood-stained legacy of sea-killers, never questioned the stories his family built their power on. Yet, when Caroline forces him to look at the truth-her truth-he is faced with a choice: protect the lies that shaped him, or destroy them alongside everything he's ever known. What begins as a brutal confrontation spirals into something far more dangerous: obsession, guilt, and a twisted echo of love neither can afford. Because some wounds were meant to bleed. And some love stories are written in blood.

Anchored • Harry Hook ✔
My whole body trembled as I tried to stop the tear that's threatening to fall. I pulled my arm away from his grip not liking the way he held my arm tightly, but very gently. Like he was afraid to hurt me but he didn't want to let go. I shook my head mentally, my feet moving faster, away from the person that destroyed everything I've believed in for. "I'm sorry" I froze mid-step, icy cold sensation travelled to my spine and I can't seem to urge my limbs to move. I swallowed the lump in my throat, shaking my head as a painful chuckle escape my lips. "Sorry doesn't change anything, Harry" And with that, I walk away. (Sequel to Hooked)Complete
