I should've let him drown.
That's what any normal Mer would have done. Of course, if I was like the rest, I wouldn't have been lurking around that party yacht, trying to catch a glimpse of the humans.
My people will kill me if they find out--literally--but I can't help going back every time he shows up.
And he's offering me everything I've ever wanted: A chance to see land.
Those stormy blue eyes don't hurt, either.
Now I have to decide. Is it worth risking everything I've ever known, everything I've ever believed, to follow my heart? How can I say yes?
But how can I possibly say no?
Includes Legend of the Mer, the creation short story that started it all.
Readers of clean young adult fiction will enjoy this modern sweet romance with all the charm of The Little Mermaid.

Welcome to Sealantis
What story was Aunt Millie about to tell her nieces at the start of Merfolk on Mars? How exactly DID Sealantis come to be? And what exactly do clams and rutabagas have to do with it all? This is a fanfiction inspired by none other than Crystal Scherer herself, the brilliant author of Merfolk on Mars and other stories. If you read any of her novels thanks to this fanfiction, please be sure to start with Merfolk on Mars. Simply imagining Crystal's face (or, the emojis and reaction gifs she sends in response) upon realizing her impact on others like me brings tears to my eyes. I can only hope I do her works justice with this humble story, my first ever fanfiction written on Wattpad. happy april fools ;) Updated M & F until the plot reveals itself sufficiently (or I bring on the apocalypse from causing viral cringe-itis) "It's like dog poo on your shoe.

Tempris
[Watty's Shortlist & WATTPAD PICKS -- Up and Coming List 06.07.2018] Now Available on Amazon!!! His hands moved down to cradle her neck. "I only have one request if you're going to keep me in suspense all day long." "What's that?" The movement of her lips drew his eyes down. "Let me kiss you again?" That voice, breathy and low, set Taly's heart racing. His lips twitched at the corners-he could hear it. Now that he could use his magic, he knew exactly the kind of effect he was having on her. But he didn't move. He waited. Her choice. She set the pace. Taking a shaky breath, she jerked her head. Yes. *** Magic marked her for suffering. Magic will save her. Magic will lead her home. On Tempris, time magic is outlawed, and suspected time mages are hunted. Humans are second-class citizens, shunned by the immortal fey that live on the island. They even have a name for their kind: Shardless. Taly is one of the lucky humans. Taken in by a fey noble and his family, she's lived a good life, surrounded by people she loves. But when an accidental brush with magic causes her to see things -- ghostly apparitions that give her small glimpses into the future -- it has deadly consequences. The Sanctorum has returned to the island, and if they find her, they'll kill her. And anyone that tries to protect her. This includes her best friend, Skye. He was the boy that saved her. The man she knew she could never have. And when he refuses to let her go, their actions might hold the power to reshape the world. An ancient evil is rising, and in order to protect those that she cares for, Taly will have to sacrifice everything. Including her heart.Complete

Those Who Return at Dawn - Book 1 - Lord of Thymos [Romantic fantasy]
"There were many legends and stories about werewolves and vampires, dragons and elves, spirits and demons, but why couldn't he find any record about a being who lived, yet seemed not to exist in this world? Was this ritual dangerous? Summoning demons? Sacrificing his soul? Luther closed his eyes tightly. Deep down, he knew what his decision was. He needed an answer to his fifteen-year-long question." This is the story of two boys who awaken their divinities (a reaper and a sun god.) One was born with everything. The other lost the only few things he had. What will happen when the Flow of Destiny intertwines their lives? This is a story about salvation and being saved, about life and death, about exploration and adventure, about kinship, friendship, and love. Follow Luther and Aaron as they wander through the boundless Cosmos; strolling the magical market Mariana, diving into the silent depths of the Tranquil Sea, riding the Orion Express under starlit skies, visiting Sicily the city of blossoms and fruit, travelling the Heart of the Cosmos, crossing the wilds of Anasia, climbing the Tower of Tomorrow, and countless other realms where wonder never ends. What to expect: - OP MCs. - Fantasy worlds/food/species ... - Found family. - Slice of life. - Lots of cozy moments, yet the stakes are still there. - Slow burn romance (Strangers to friends to family to lovers, oblivious x oblivious.) - Cute pets. Imagine a blend of Harry Potter (a hidden magical world in a modern setting) and Percy Jackson (Descendants of Greek Gods) with a Ghibli vibe. Though told through young eyes, I hope this tale may also be read as a fairytale for grown souls: a heart-warming and wholesome adventure, with a hint of darkness and a pinch of sadness. Warnings: - Gay. No sexual content. - The story takes references from Greek mythology, Dante's Inferno, and Ars Goetia, but will add, remove, and modify many different details. Please consider this as an alternate universe.Complete
Becoming Her Dark Side
They lied to me. My own family. My so-called friends. All of them hiding the truth, that we're tied to the criminal underworld, a forte where my family, the Storms, are the undisputed kings. Then everything falls apart. My dad gets framed. My cousin ends up dead. And the boy I've had a childhood crush on-Nathaniel-turns out to be the one who could destroy me. At least Luke, the one person I shouldn't want, fights to keep me from breaking... but even he has secrets. But it's gets even worse, because now an organization is rising from the shadows, an organization that opposes everything my family stands for. And in a family of warmongers and sociopaths, I stood out as a glaring weakness. The most normal, the most vulnerable, and the most efficient way to end a dynasty that has ruled for centuries. Because what is a throne without an heir, and a crown without its king. So here I am, stuck in a game of blood and betrayal where the only way to survive is to stop being the fragile girl they thought I was. If I have to burn bridges, spill blood, and embrace the monster inside me, then so be it. Because this time, I'm not running from my darkness. I'm becoming it.![Finn [Merman]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/235933171-256-k916262.jpg)
