Consumed By The Ocean💙 by Letitbe007

Gemma had a rough start in life but she eventually managed to make her life what she always dreamt of. From filling the gap between her grandparents and her mom to accepting her father's absence in her life to becoming a successful interior designer for a top company, Gemma Reynold managed everything perfectly with her 'happy-to-go' nature. But longest kept secrets have the potential to ruin a good life in shortest span of time. That is what happened when Gemma moved to live with her mother on their native Island in south Atlantic Ocean. From her childhood she had an unsettling feeling about ocean. Unlike other kids of her age, she was always afraid to go for a swim on beaches because of that blue mass of water. But now she understood that it wasn't the water that bothered her.............it was that fate of hers that was entangled with the Ocean that bothered her. This was decided centuries ago, that a child born from the union of water and land must face the cruelties of the depths of Ocean............no matter how beautiful they are.

ALL THAT WAS LEFT BEHIND by redhatted

Imagine a box. Any box you want. It could be a vintage chestnut chest imported from France, or a simple moldy cardboard box. Either way, it serves the same purpose, being shoved away in the corners of your dusty attic, with a variety of miscellaneous forgotten treasures. You never realise it's up there, abandoned in the thick coating of dust and neglect, until one day, it's all gone. It's always gone just when you discover that its contents may have been key to uncovering the troubled past of that box. But how much would it matter? How far would you go to retrieve the lost broken reveries? My name is Sea. It's a strange name, I know, especially since I can't recall ever being near a sea, but my folks have always been rather strange people. At least, from what I can remember. I've never really known them, but my whole life has been formed around their existence. The things I have learned from them could be looked at as troubled lessons of the world I lived in, which isn't necessarily a bad thing. However, accepting that fact could only be the beginning. This is all that I had gained from my life, and everything my parents gave me. This is all that they had left behind.

A Pirate's Kiss (Wattys Winner 2011) by iluvdaisychain

Silkie by JeffRains

Kenna Gale is a beautiful seal maiden (Silkie or Selkie) who lives on the coastline of the Scottish lowlands near the border of Scotland and England. To create another creature like herself, Kenna must make love to a mortal man, then drown a female mortal soul, so that her soul could be reborn inside of Kenna's child. Otherwise, Kenna's child will be a mortal seal pup. This story is shorter than many of my stories, but I think the quality is better.

An Ocean Between Us by BrendaChenowith

She loved the water. But not just any water-the ocean. The way the waves of salt water felt when they crashed into her skin, or the way the ocean breeze tossed her long blonde hair around. All she ever wanted was to be in the water, or near it while sitting on the beach. The ocean was her happy place. While she lived a quiet life, spending her days out on the water fishing, she was concealing a secret, one that only a few people knew. When a beautiful brunette woman with the most amazing brown eyes entered her life one night, pieces of the puzzle began to surface, and more questions began to form. Could the mysterious woman she sees sitting alone at the beach at night hold the key to the mystery that is her life?

The Souls of Drowned People by ElleSvensson

Moira knows there has to be a reason why she was forced to leave Ireland after her father's drowning, and the secrets her mother keeps aren't calming her curiosity and desire to learn the truth. Her only link to the past is her best friend, Cillian, and even he has grown quiet as Moira's eighteenth birthday approaches. But when Cillian finally agrees to take her back to Ireland, and Moira sees the fierce waves and the seals that watch her from the rocks, the stories hidden from her suddenly begin to make sense. Her family has been feuding with the selkies, the seal people that surround the village, for years, causing the numerous drownings that lead her mother to fear the water so much. Moira can end the issue - she's supposed to marry a selkie prince once she's eighteen, forever tying her people with the seals. Moira has only just discovered the life hidden from her, and going to live with the seals would mean giving up the life she's always wanted to live. She doesn't want to give herself up to the sea. It will have to come for her.
