It was odd, having someone disappear without warning. 

The first person I've ever truly loved was now gone. It doesn't sit well, it feels wrong. It feels like a lie, like a scary story my mother would tell me to avoid very bad things. Like someone is trying to trick me, and he's simply visiting family. I keep telling myself this. I keep creating reasons for why he's gone.

Because I will never know why he left.

Each baby born beneath the waves is killed--with one exception: the one hundred thousandth is spared. There's one rule shared between the island's tribes: don't touch the water. When Cressa-la breaks this law, her world, and body, changes. Sure, change is normal... but when has growing scales ever been normal? • • • Watty Award Winner 2015: Best Use of Visuals • • • Each baby born beneath the waves is killed--with one exception: the one hundred thousandth is spared. Among the spared, magic chooses a rare few, connecting them to the moon or sea. These are the One-Hundreds, mermaids and humans with the power to save the world-or corrupt it. When Cressa-la breaks the first rule of her tribe and touches the water surrounding her island, everything she knows turns on its head. Talking, sinister dolphins, mind control, and a whole world just under the waves await her on her eigteenth birthday... but she never asked for any of this. All she wanted was to become a Tribe Leader and take care of her village. It's amazing how one screw-up can change everything. A relentless darkness reaches for her, wanting her affections for his own twisted purposes. In opposition stands a fractured light, haunted by a painful past where corruption eroded friendship. Unless Cressa-la can bring the darkness to his knees and fight the war raging inside, the world is doomed. • • • Content warning: This story contains themes of depression and violence.

Beyond the Sea

22 parts Ongoing Mature

Sela Eagleshield has always been drawn to the sea. Despite her mother's stories of spiteful monsters luring people from their village to their untimely deaths, and the rocky waves that meet the shoreline, she still finds herself drawn to the water. But one day, while visiting the sea, she stumbles across an injured creature with the tail of a fish and the chest of a man. Immediately, she takes him back to her village and brings him back to health. Sela and the prince of the ocean, Kael, find intrigue in each other's worlds, and teach each other the ways of the land and the ocean. The longer they spend together, the deeper their feelings grow for one another, and the more complicated their lives become. For neither of them belong in the other's world. And to top it all off, a storm is coming. A storm neither the people of the land nor the people of the sea are ready to face with an oncoming threat looming over their heads. Together, Sela and Kael must find a way to get their people to work together to face those who seek to destroy their ways of life. Will Sela and Kael find a way to be together? Will they pick a world they both feel they equally belong to? And above all, will they succeed in fighting off the threat coming for all of them? Find out in Beyond the Sea. Coming October 2024!
