Zaira is a young mermaid in a pod far off from the nearest human shore. Still, some ships will venture near their home and it was Zaira's job as Siren to lure them away with her song. And she did, because she hated the alternative.

Most pods don't have a Siren and so they have no choice but to destroy the ship and drown the sailors. Zaira had never personally witnessed this and she didn't plan to start when a storm hit while she lured a ship away.

You don't always get what you want.

Zaira finds herself in danger. Between the risk of humans finding out that she exists and her Matriarch having her killed for her crimes the only person she can rely on is a young fisherman named Eric.

Can she survive with the cruel laws of her pod, or will she be forced to risk shallow waters and dangerous humans?


*and that drawing of the mermaid is not mine!!!! I just kinda put words on it. I got it from an article about mermaids!*


This story is kind of what I wish The Little Mermaid actually was like... in a way. Yet still somehow an original story.

117 parts Ongoing

After being transported into a novel, Qin Shu discovers she's just a stand-in, having taken her half-sister's place to enter the world of cultivation. Eight years into her training, her half-sister - born with no spiritual talent - unexpectedly finds her way onto the path of cultivation, and Qin Shu's secret is publicly exposed. Cast out by her sect with only a meager third-level Qi Refinement, she faces a grim fate: her striking beauty makes her an ideal target to be made into a spiritual furnace, doomed to a brief life of torment. As dawn breaks, Qin Shu stares out her window, deep in thought. Her only way forward is to focus on cultivating, sharpening her abilities, and staying ahead of her half-sister. Determined to survive, she waits until the others sleep, then sneaks out to train, embracing the grind. Then, quite by accident, she discovers that moonlight seems to enhance her cultivation....
