For centuries, Jalen has wandered through time, an unseen muse behind the world's greatest minds, drifting through memories he can't fully grasp. He's lived in the shadows, his name a secret lost to history, haunted by an unshakable feeling of insignificance. Yet, there's one constant he can't ignore: the ocean's call, a language both familiar and forgotten.

But a quiet day by the shore becomes the start of an unimaginable journey when Jalen is swept into a cosmic clash that threatens the very fabric of reality. As the destined Pisces, Jalen is thrust into the heart of a battle he's spent lifetimes evading. Now, he must uncover the power within him, confront forces that have long eluded his understanding, and finally step out of the shadows.

In a universe where myth collides with destiny, Jalen's wild, millennia-spanning ride will test his resolve and his role in a fate that could reshape everything. Can he rise to meet the challenge, or will the mysteries of his past hold him back?

Beneath the Courage by TheoryKierei
21 parts Complete
Book 3 of Beneath the Waves Being left alone for days on end was never something Fri looked forward to. After having just gotten back his one true friend in the world, he thought things might begin to look up. True, he was no longer a captive of sadistic humans and he didn't feel nearly as sick as he had, yet, for some reason, he still couldn't move or swim well. The medicine the human doctor had given him had helped for a short time, but now Fri was stuck on an island, completely dependent on Hice to bring him food, though the mer never stayed after delivering his catch. Determined to find his own remedy, and also the doctor who had helped him in the beginning, Fri decides to try and find him again. He knew that Hice wouldn't like him disappearing, and he might not even make it very far before his body gave out, but he was determined to put his worries behind him and push forward to try and help himself. Being a mer living among humans was something Callem and his brother were finally beginning to get used to. They dressed in clothing, most of the time. They ate without making a mess, sometimes. And they loved their humans, or in Mellac's case, their human's bodies. But when Fri turns up out of the blue, and new, mysterious hunters appear close behind, things begin to spiral out of control, fast.

Kiara Vatelle's love of the ocean brings her to The Bahamas for her senior trip. It is her dream vacation - four weeks of sun, sand, and quality time with her sister.

After swimming a little too far from the shore, Kiara finds herself in an ancient, undersea realm of mythical sea creatures. This new world is enchanting, and the mer-folk treat her like family, but are they just a little too eager for her to stay? From the ancient Kingdom of Oamer, to the hide-out of Pisces and Nereids, to a cursed Island and Tocona Isla, the odds seem to be against Kiara. Because even if she outwits those standing in her path, the seas always have their own plans.

Rashid once stood as the cosmos' greatest warrior, his reputation a beacon of strength-until a tragedy he could have prevented shattered him. With his heart broken and pride humbled by the loss of his beloved, he retreated from the battlefield to the quiet isolation of a mechanic's life. But when fate calls him back, Rashid is swept into an epic journey alongside Balam, Jalen, and Kai in the Ethereal Plane, a place where the stakes couldn't be higher. Together, they stand against the threat of the Four Horsemen, whose twisted ambitions place them all in unimaginable danger. On the other side of the Ethereal Plane, Qismat-the realm's finest blacksmith-has lived in devoted solitude, wielding his craft with dedication, his heart as steadfast as his hammer. But when a lost love returns to his life, her memories intact, Qismat faces emotions he'd buried long ago. As chaos ripples through the angelic realm, Qismat must rise beyond his self-imposed isolation and prove that even a humble blacksmith can alter the fate of worlds. In a tale where broken warriors and forgotten lovers must confront their pasts, Rashid and Qismat discover that true strength comes not from power alone, but from the courage to face one's deepest wounds.

27 parts Complete Mature
new version is on my profile lolz no actually this version sucks why are you reading it (ManxMan) The royal house of the mermaids has fallen to hard times, with the still recent death of their queen. Prince Zacariah Triton is bored of his lackluster life under the sea, so he finds it as a fresh breath of air when he is admitted into an elite school for supernatural creatures and royalty when he turns eighteen. Zac really is happy to get away from his father for the next few years. He sets his mind to learning about the dry world that his mother was so fascinated with. That is, until he meets Trevor Brooks, the most feared person at this new school. Why is he feared? Because he's the first ever demon to be granted access to leave Hell. A series of sinister events lead both Zac and Trevor to believe they're being targeted by other demons in Hell, their theory is that they want to get Zac's trident. If they get the trident, they will be as powerful as the Gods themselves, and most likely destory the realms. So Zac and Trevor have no choice but to go into hiding. The main question is, just how fucked up can Zac get before they break him? And is Trevor really falling in love, or just falling under his siren song? ⚠️WARNING⚠️ Content not suitable for those who are triggered by: Gore, death, swearing (lots of it), suggestive scenes, sexual interactions between two men, implications of mental illness, and abuse.
