Azaziah Azar is not like the pirates he shares a ship with. He never would have led them to the fabled Golden Siren if he'd known it really existed. He wishes he hadn't.

Az and the siren are both trapped on board The Merry, captained by the unstable Rowan Slade and forced to work for him. At first, they want nothing to do with each other. To Az, the siren is an unfeeling, dangerous predator. To the siren, Az is just another pirate out to make a pretty penny off his shining golden scales. But as Slade's plans for the siren escalate, Az realises that maybe sirens and humans aren't so different after all.

When feelings start to develop between the two, and Slade's work causes the siren's stress to reach its peak, Az will learn that what is right isn't always what is easy.

The Demon's Prince by MarlesBells

Ithiriel, the firstborn prince of the fae, has lived his entire life under the oppressive rule of his father, King Anaros. Known for his icy composure and unwavering control, he carries the burdens of the kingdom in silence, his emotions buried deep beneath a mask of stoicism. His connection to the land is his only escape-an ancient, grounding power that heals as much as it isolates. But when a brewing rebellion threatens the Kings plan for expansion, Ithiriel is forced to face a new, far more dangerous enemy. Zaroth, a powerful demon loyal only to his dark king, has long upheld the balance of a world teetering on the edge of chaos. Ruthless, methodical, and detached, he lives for control. But when he's assigned to keep watch over Ithiriel and thwart King Anaros' dangerous ambitions, Zaroth discovers something he never expected-an obsession with the fae prince that disrupts his carefully constructed world. Caught between duty and desire, Ithiriel and Zaroth are drawn together in a bond that defies every boundary set before them. The prince finds himself torn not only between the cruel demands of his father but also the unfamiliar pull of his own heart. - This blurb will probably change. A lot of trigger warnings, please heed them.

Charged with returning the all-too-familiar Prince Valory to the capital by way of the isles, Jack and schooner Windjammer battle storms and sea-monsters alike in Oceana's treacherous waters.

Pirate Chains ~ Strong tides by Syrvat

This story is being republished on wattpad! The whole series in already on Amazon and Smashwords! Enjoy :D A chain and a collar can imprison a nobleman, but what could entrap a devil? Only the innocence of a fallen angel. Once upon a time, there was a very respectful and principled young man, named Nyx. He was a nobleman in all meanings of the word. He struggled to keep his late father's fishing business alive and protect his dear mother and older sister. Between the fishermen's schemes and the selfishness of his stepfather, his task was not an easy burden to carry. One day, the fates threw him into a dangerous predicament, only to find himself being saved by the devil. Agenor (Ah-gueh-nor), Captain of the Martina pirate crew. He was strong and ruthless, which earned him a reputation across both shadowed waters and guarded islands as the 'Devil'. When the young nobleman fell into his hands, Agenor couldn't help but be enchanted by the innocent angel. He was inexplicably drawn to him. He didn't ponder much on his actions, as he was guided by a burning need to keep him for himself. It was within his rights to have the man for himself, to chain him and abuse him. He didn't listen to Nyx's pleas, or couldn't. He repeatedly denied him any chance of freedom. For deep within him, he knew. Nyx was his. This story depicts Nyx's adventure as he struggles to live among pirates, avoid their bullying and harassment, and witness his own feelings take unexpected turns towards his captor.
