Ceto Webb is just a normal, human girl. Or so she thought, until she is captured by blood thirsty and gold thirsty pirates. Thrown into a world she never knew existed, Ceto must fight to survive. Pirates from all around the world are after her and they're not the only one's... or things. Creatures of the shadows want her, and only one person can save her. Diego de Mercado is the most feared pirate in the whole seas. The king of all thieves, 'el portador de la muerte' (The bringer of death). Some claim he is cursed, others believe he is an immortal god. When he manages to find Ceto and save her, he is drawn to the small, innocent girl. But the stories aren't wrong. Ceto knows there is something about the mysterious pirate, and he seems to know a lot about her, more than he lets on. His cold stare and icy mood are terrifying, but she can't help but feel a connection to him. Something she can't explain. But something dark is coming, and Ceto won't know who to trust.
