Belle, a restless mermaid princess, has always longed for more than the depths of the ocean. Drawn to the dazzling beauty of Venus, a human woman she secretly admires from afar, Belle risks everything to transform into a human and enter Venus' world. But getting close to Venus isn't as easy as she'd hoped. Instead of finding herself in the radiant glow of her crush, Belle lands a job as a secretary for Psyche, Venus' best friend-and the most insufferable person Belle has ever met.
Psyche, a spoiled and cold billionaire, immediately gets under Belle's skin. With her sharp tongue, icy demeanor, and endless demands, she seems determined to make Belle's life miserable. Belle tries to stay focused on her goal-to win over Venus-but Psyche's irritating presence throws her off at every turn. What Belle doesn't realize is that Psyche knows her secret identity as a mermaid and enjoys keeping her close, finding ways to torment her with every passing day.
As Belle becomes more frustrated with Psyche's arrogance and high-handedness, an unexpected tension begins to grow between them. It all comes to a head in a heated clash over a seemingly innocent blanket-a moment that sparks a rivalry neither of them can ignore. Belle soon finds herself torn between her feelings for Venus and her undeniable connection with Psyche, questioning if this rivalry is really just the beginning of something more.
Caught in a whirlwind of secrets, rivalry, and unspoken attraction, Belle's once-clear mission to capture Venus' heart becomes a tangled mess she never saw coming. Will she stay focused on her dream, or will Psyche ruin everything?
