Cursed by birth. Hunted by fate. Bound by the sea.

Cherub was never meant to exist. A half-fairy with no wings of her own, she crafted a pair from wood and twigs, lacing them with stolen magic-an illusion of belonging in a world that refuses to claim her. Cast out by the fae and feared by humans, she survives in the shadows, unwanted and unseen. Until a bounty is placed on her head, and every mercenary in the kingdom comes hunting.

Alessandro D'Amari was born to rule, but he would rather be lost at sea than chained to a throne. On the eve of his coronation, he vanishes, abandoning his royal title for a sailor's freedom. No crown. No kingdom. No expectations. Just the open waters and the promise of an untamed life.

When Cherub stows away on Alessandro's ship, she expects to find passage-not a runaway prince with his own secrets. Thrust together by fate, the two strike an uneasy bargain: safe harbor for her, an ally against the ones chasing him. But the sea is restless, and so is magic. Something ancient stirs beneath the waves, something that knows their names.

Because cursed blood calls to cursed blood.
And the tide always returns what it's owed.All Rights Reserved

As A Stranger Or A Friend? by thesmolwriter45

Upon the blurred line of morality and at the mercy of circumstance, two souls meet. Again. And again. And again. So, is it simply a coincidence or something more? When a young Mariel leaves home, she is instructed to lead a quiet, ignoble life. Forever. And so, determined to remain overlooked, she toils endlessly, disguised as all things plain. But they say still waters run deep, and even the ordinary are not who they appear to be... So, what would it take for those waters to ripple? Enter the raucous and free Axtapor, a nobleman turned pirate. Dashing through life like a tempest, he is resolved to live on his own terms, allowing none to stand in his way. But a pirate's curse is a pair of wandering eyes, a boundless appetite for more, and a fascination with the unknown. Waters disturbed, the two upend one another's lives with misunderstanding hands and misguided compassion. The balances of fate tip dangerously and they quickly find themselves pitted against the same foe: time. The world's watchful eyes fall upon them as night coats the skies and something unexpectedly new begins to emerge. Hope. Little do they know just how dangerous something like that can be. *Contains mature themes, such as violence, gore, suggestive scenes, and offensive/triggering language, please read with care and at your own discretion.*

$Mermaid Tail {A NaLu AU} by Cryptic_Eyes$

In a world of magic, legends, pirates, and mythical beings, Fiore is a kingdom long forgotten. Within the deep blue of its ocean, the Obsidian, lies a lone mermaid by the name of Lucy Heartfilia. She has run from home, a home overrun by her corrupt father, and now roams the seas with her best friend Plue, a shapeshifter in the form of a white dolphin. One day, she dares the forbidden, and climbs to land. There, she possesses the legs of a mortal, and can roam as something she is fated to never be. However, when Trackers kidnap Lucy and try to sell her for her magical abilities, she manages an escape and is now on the run from the Trackers, being put under a spell that no longer allows her tail to reappear until nightfall. Stuck in a foreign place with Landwalkers, she must return home to have the curse lifted by her father, but she needs help to do it. However, she didn't expect a pink-haired sea captain to be it. Natsu Dragneel is the captain of his beautiful Fairy Tail, but he searches for something most valuable: the pink Obsidian stone, a rare and valuable treasure that could pay millions of jewels. But the pink-haired adventurer isn't in it for the money; no, that is a simple bonus. Natsu is in it for its wishful properties, able to grant a one and only wish to whoever takes it from the bearer. The only problem: he has no idea what it looks like, or where to find it. All he knows is that he needs it desperately. But, a beautiful maiden with the wish to return to her home in the middle of the Obsidian Sea, with Trackers after her thirsty for blood...that might be a good place to start. With an adventure full of sirens, fairies, cats and mages, the Captain and his Mermaid may just be caught by their enemies...while falling in love in the process.

Never Ending Circle Of Reality by LilithAnders0n

Talia had always lived in a world of fantasy, a dreamer lost in the stories her father once told her. He spun tales of enchanted kingdoms, fearless heroes, and magical lands that existed beyond the stars. To her, those stories were more than just bedtime tales-they were a part of her, a place where she belonged. But when her father mysteriously vanished, reality came crashing down. The magic faded, leaving behind only an aching emptiness. Years passed, and Talia buried herself in the last relic of her father's world-his old book, filled with the same stories he used to tell. She clung to it like a lifeline, believing it was the key to preserving his memory. But one night, something changed. The words on the pages twisted, the ink bled, and before she could react, she was no longer in her bedroom. She was inside the book. Trapped in a kingdom once vibrant but now shrouded in darkness, Talia discovers that the fairytale world her father created is no longer the one she remembers. A curse has twisted its fate, and at the heart of it all lies the shadowy ruler, Soldark-a tyrant with an eerie connection to her past. Now, Talia must navigate this world of elves, mermaids, and sinister creatures, unaware that the very book she treasures is both the key to saving the land... and the chain binding its ruler. Will she fight to preserve the story she once loved, or will she dare to destroy it to uncover the truth?

Lost by lifhlv127

The experiments unfolded, scattering like fragile shards across the endless islands, their edges softened by time yet never truly lost. Memories unraveled like threads caught in the wind, slipping through grasping fingers, dissolving into nameless tides. And still, one cannot help but wonder-did they ever truly seek to reclaim them? Or were they meant to drift, untethered, between what was and what could have been? In this boundless sea, they remain-specters of something half-remembered, untouched by death, at least for now. But the past is never silent, only sleeping, buried beneath the hush of the waves. Beneath the weight of salt and centuries, echoes stir in the deep, restless and waiting. Forgotten names, forsaken dreams, lingering like footprints in shifting sands, erased and rewritten with each passing storm. Some chase the ghosts of what was, desperate to stitch together a story undone. Others flee, fearing that to remember is to break. Yet no soul can outrun the tide forever. The current pulls, unyielding, toward an inevitable reckoning. And when the sea finally sings their names once more, will they answer? Or will they, too, fade into the whispers of a world that was never meant to remember them? An arcane odyssey fanfiction
