[COMPLETED] She was the most beautiful creature he had ever seen. She was ethereal and mystical and utterly impossible. Her mere existence challenged everything that he knew about the world. His mind screamed that she couldn't be real, yet here she was.

When seventeen-year-old Liam Bainbridge sees something wrapped in a fishing net on a sandbar, his first thought is that some poor creature had been caught up by a fishing boat. Feeling the need to help, he jumps into action. It isn't until he releases it that he sees that everything isn't always as it appears. The fin doesn't belong to a dolphin or a seal, but a strangely beautiful girl and she's badly injured. Liam is soon pulled into an incredible mythical world he never imagined was real.

(COMPLETED) A Little Mermaid Retelling through the Seawitch's eyes like never stated before. Everyone always got the story wrong, "A mermaid princess falls head over feels with a prince, she trades her tail for legs while giving up her voice, but he didn't recognize her and married a neighboring kingdom's princess, and they all blamed the seawitch for the downfall of it all." But what if I told you the seawitch was actually the mermaid princess' best friend and didn't want her to go to the land at all and instead was worried about her so much. What if I told you, the human prince pretended to not recognize her because he wanted to marry the neighboring kingdom's princess? What if I told you the seawitch was only called a seawitch because their kind could perform magic and spells, but merfolk feared them for superstitious reasons? What if I told you that seawitch was in love with the princesses and they wanted to do all they could to prevent her from turning into seafoam? Because that seawitch is me...

One of the most painful things on earth is to lose a loved one. Whether in death or heartbreak. It's a pain different from all others. You feel every burn, every ache, your senses awaken, and greedily await a memory to sip in and then wreck your entire being. She took everything. His Light. His Heart. His Soul. It had no end. For years it went on like it would never end. But, it did. Just in passing, a normal day, a day like every other, but it was the day, his heart danced truly and his chest tighten as if a fierce wind had passed by, blending with his soul, leaving a suffocating feeling in his chest, a choking sensation in his throat, there was a pressure making it hard to breathe. ******* "My heart has heated for the human and my blood has flown for him. Every time I thought of him, my heart would ache. It would ache so much I couldn't breathe, the feeling of despair, yet sweetness... Even so, I still couldn't stop thinking about him." So...this is how it feels to love a person. "I belong to you, just as this merman belongs to the seas. Like a falling leaf belongs to its roots." "Nothing can stop me from falling into your embrace." ******* ®®

A New Tide Rising by jms777
21 parts Complete
[COMPLETED] After completing her task of going to ground to bring her sister back home, a mermaid - Amaya - is drawn back to the small island of Linda Cove to find a young woman with whom she had a brief encounter during her time there. She yearns to find out if the feelings she experienced for this human were real, or just a passing infatuation borne out of intrigue for an unfamiliar creature. ***** This is a companion story to What the Tide Brings, in which Amaya's sister - Kaelin - is rescued by a human boy and harbored by his unknowing family, but Kaelin has a secret that could bring danger to her newfound friend. I suggest reading What the Tide Brings first for continuity's sake, but this story can be read on its own. It's pretty much self contained, except for a few references to characters and events from What the Tide Brings. *****

Sea of Tears by EvangelineNott
26 parts Ongoing Mature
A human girl/merman historical romance. ◇Prequel to Sea of Dreams ◇ This is the tale of a girl who is swept away into the deep, straight into the arms of a terrifying merman. Can also be read as a stand-alone :) ●Preview● Larissa cried out in alarm along with the riotus pirates as the row boat flipped over into the dark choppy waves. Her voice was instantly cut short by the onslaught of salt water invading her lungs. Beneath the depths, she saw nothing but churning water rushing through her vision. Distant cries of terror and anguish from above the surface filled her ears. Murkey red waves began to swirl all around her, and suddenly, a flashing streak of white, and the glimmer of a silvery blue tail swooshed past her eyes in an effervescent blur. Adrenaline immediately crushed into her, enveloping her sanity. Her heart hammered erractically, and her limbs frantically moved on their own volition, propelling her upward for air. Breaking through the surface, she gasped anxiously for oxygen, while the invading shouts of the English men bombarded the air with the atmosphere of sheer panic. Paralyzing fear gripped her entire being as she looked up, the salt water trailing down her face from her wet hair. One by one, before her very eyes, each man still swimming within the beating waves was mercilessly yanked down into the depths, followed by a splash and glimmer of that same silvery tail whipping back and forth viciously within the churning waters, sending up foamy sprays of water and spurts of pirate blood in it's wake.
