Lucy looked at the ocean and felt what she always felt: A mixture of yearning and terror, a desire to throw herself into the cold water that was like the desire to drive too fast, leap too far, and jump from heights beyond reason.
Lucy was not sure what terrified her most about the ocean. There was a rage in the waves, dark and tipped with white like lace, they were deceptively beautiful, but as they neared the shore, closed like crushing fists.

Marine Love (boyxboy)
"Careful human." The...thing said in a concerned voice. "W-What are you, what d-do you want?" I shakily asked him, curling up my body protecting myself. "Shh human don't be afraid. You are my mate." What is a mate? Why did he bring me here? Who is he? Why is he looking at me like that? From the distance I put between us I could admire him more, and his tail. He really is beautiful. It was a deep teal green colour with gold and blue blended in with it that reminded me of his eyes. He was holding himself up with his arms looking at me curiously, head slightly bent to the side and all. "What are you, what do you want?" I asked slowly, my heartbeat had almost reduced to normal again but I was feeling a strange pull towards the creature in front of me. "I am a Merman and you are my mate." His voice was deep and sounded like music the way he spoke. But mate? "Mate?" I asked hoping to find out the way in which he directed this word. "My love," he paused looking into my hazel eyes. "Come closer human you are beautiful...and mine."Complete
Wherever the waves would take her
She felt water falling on her face as Evie followed the waves, pushing her along. It felt like a dream, her body propelling her up to the surface as she struggled to gain some control over her body. Her thoughts were incoherent, a jumbled mix of sounds she could not begin to vocalise. What was she doing here? Where was she? Snapping her eyes open as she heard a distant boom that echoed for miles around, completely alone in the middle of a lightning storm. Which was strange because Evie didn't remember swimming to the ocean's surface to brave the cold.Complete

My Demon Mate (BoyxBoy)
I knew I was a freak, I'm weird not stupid - even if I did act like it half the time. It wasn’t normal to be like me, to be afraid of things everyone loves, needs to survive even. I had always been afraid of it for some reason, among other things of course; I would rather die than have to face my fear. Everyone knew it but no one cared though did they? I was just another stupid kid in this stupid foster home. Another stupid kid that had been ‘dumped’ and no one wanted. At least, that's what I thought.Complete
Monstrum Marinum | Siren!Rafayel x Reader
"The Dark Sea is no ordinary sea," the old woman continued. "Its waves are as black as night, and it stretches far and wide, so deep that not even the sun's light can reach its depths. But that's not the worst of it, oh no. For beneath those waves, there are monsters-terrible, dreadful creatures that would freeze your blood if you were ever to lay eyes on them." ✨✨✨ fem!reader x rafayel. royal! au. sea horror! au. heavy angst. minor and major character death. slow burn. romance. fluff. explicit scenes. trauma. religious themes. gore; hinted torture, cannibalism, self-cannibalism, decapitation, violence. He watched her from the ocean's veil, A creature wrought from myth and sea, His love, a secret, soft and frail, Yet in her gaze, he longed to be. She knew him not, as days went by, That eyes so wild could turn so tender, She danced beneath the starlit sky, While he, unseen, became her mender. He shaped his voice to earthly sound, His form to walk where mortals tread, Yet in his soul, the sea was bound, Its ancient call filled him with dread. Alone she stands, with heart undone, A lonely maid upon the sand, shells do lay broken in hand, The sea sings low of what's begun, A war of hearts, flesh, and blood.

Of the Sea
The ocean was an unforgiving force that took as it pleased and gave little back. Astrid knew that to be a fact. After the tragedy of her mother's death, she watched her father's sanity collapse as he was driven to prove that it was more than just a boating accident. Unlike him, she stayed well away from the water's edge and out of its grasp, immersed in the sorrow of her loss. But what little the ocean did give back, a man of myth with the tail of a fish, could reveal more about the secrets to a harrowing conspiracy brewing below the surface.Complete
How To Catch A Heart | ✓
"Izzy hated near-misses more than she hates white chocolate. She hates the word almost. She hates the word lacking and not finishing something she started. To Izzy, if you want to brew hot chocolate you better top it off with whipped cream and if you are about to dip your feet in the sea, you should ditch all your misgivings and dive in it instead. When her dream shattered halfway through her climbing it, she could not believe herself as she hopped on a plane and found herself in a seaside small town with bicycles more than people. Then she met people, people who taught her how to catch hearts. She began to understand not everything has a cherry on top. " cover by @pathways_endComplete
