In a world that has forgotten its magic, Lira hides in plain sight - a siren forced to live among humans, bound by ancient law to silence her voice and her heart. One song, one kiss, one heartbeat of love... and the sea will claim her forever.
Then she meets Elias, a storm-chaser with salt in his blood and something wild in his soul. Their connection is instant - silent but undeniable, a current that pulls them toward each other no matter how they fight it.
But when love between a siren and a human threatens the fragile peace between land and sea, fate turns cruel. Death comes for Elias, and Lira must break every law of her kind to save him - even if it means losing herself to the deep.
Caught between two worlds, between destiny and desire, they must decide:
Will love drown, or will it learn to breathe?

Return (mxm)
I have been on display for the humans as long as I can remember. I'm nothing but a trained seal, a show pony. Something to "ooh" and "ahh" at by young and old their hands and faces pressed against the glass of my prison. I follow every order. I obey every command. I have to, though I resent his control over my life with every fiber of my being. If I disobey, if I become too much of a problem, he may give me exactly what I wish for. He may let me return. -This story has depictions of violence, depression, panic attacks, gore.

She finds solace in her job-and in the company of Dexter, a marine biologist whose passion for the ocean draws her in deeper than she's ever been before.
