Embark on an extraordinary oceanic odyssey that unfurls a captivating tale of family, love, sacrifice, and redemption in the enchanting depths of the underwater realm. "The Depths of Sacrifice" weaves a rich tapestry of emotions and challenges as it navigates the lives of Nereus, Thalass, Erebos, and the enigmatic siren Seren.

In the mysterious depths of the ocean, where the sun's rays barely pierce through the inky darkness, Nereus, the youngest of three merman brothers, struggles to adapt to the surface world. With determination and Seren's patient guidance, he learns the intricacies of walking on two feet, speaking the language of humans, and experiencing life above the waves.

Their temporary abode on the surface becomes a canvas for the growth of unspoken feelings between Nereus and Seren. Each passing day deepens the bond between them, a connection that transcends the boundaries of the ocean floor. However, their burgeoning romance is subtly hidden beneath the surface, much like the hidden wonders of the ocean.

The narrative takes an unexpected turn when two human girls, enchanted by Seren a d Nereus's otherworldly charm, approach them. Nereus, still grappling with basic human communication, receives assistance from Seren. As the conversation unfolds, Seren's protective nature surfaces, especially when the girls express flirtatious intentions. A tinge of jealousy emerges, and Seren, kindly but firmly, rejects the advances, leaving the disappointed girls behind.

Night descends upon their temporary dwelling, setting the stage for Seren to lay bare his true feelings. Unable to contain his emotions any longer, Seren confesses his affection for Nereus. The air crackles with anticipation as Nereus, taken aback, blushes and bites his lip before reciprocating the feelings. Seren, unleashing his more seductive and flirtatious side, deepens their connection with playful banter.

The rest is history and fir you to read :)

🖤 "You will remember me," I utter, wrapping my hand tighter around the candle. "You will remember the woman who burned your world to ash. For I am a reckoning. I am vengeance. I am your demise.

Fate will pull her into the arms of Ares, the son of the pod's chief and a male that will have Corintha questioning her innermost desires.

Over the next few weeks I will be going through it to fix typos and grammatical errors but otherwise this story is complete! Enjoy! Sirena Brinn is just your average 18 year old... Well, aside from the fact that she can breath underwater. After moving back to her childhood home of Glasspoint, Florida Sirena's entire reality is changed when she learns that merpeople exist, and that she could even be one herself. Eventually, she finds herself in the company of Calder, a mysterious merman who seems to know a little too much about her, and Darrien a handsome merprince who puts the fate of his kingdom in her hands. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ It took all of me not scream at the sight before me. Calder was standing in my bedroom, stark naked. "Oh my god!" I cried, shielding my eyes. I leapt from under my covers and ran into the bathroom. I snatched a towel off the rack and flung it at Calder. So clearly last night wasn't a dream. "What the hell?" I hissed as he wrapped the towel around his waist. "How did you get in here?" "I climbed up from the balcony." He replied casually. "You're insane." "Well if you hadn't run off last night and just let me explain, I wouldn't be standing here right now." He said coldly. "Oh it's my fault? Okay. Well can you really blame me?" I exclaimed angrily. I was pissed that he was pissed at me. "Up until last night, I didn't even think mermaids existed, and then you tell me that I am one!" "Well excuse me for trying to give you some background information about yourself." He scoffed.
