Return (mxm)
I have been on display for the humans as long as I can remember. I'm nothing but a trained seal, a show pony. Something to "ooh" and "ahh" at by young and old their hands and faces pressed against the glass of my prison. I follow every order. I obey every command. I have to, though I resent his control over my life with every fiber of my being. If I disobey, if I become too much of a problem, he may give me exactly what I wish for. He may let me return. -This story has depictions of violence, depression, panic attacks, gore. Please read at your own discretion- Highest rankings thanks to all of you wonderful readers! : #5 in "Mermaid" #17 in "Sirens"

ocean Echoes *
In the black depths of the ocean, survival becomes a brutal game of instincts and fear. Daxton's desperate plan to lure the hunters away succeeds - but at a terrible cost. As a monstrous creature awakens in the wreck field, neither merman nor human is prepared for the violence it unleashes. Harpoons, sonar, and rage mean nothing in the face of ancient, primal hunger. Trapped between the hunters who want him dead and a predator that sees them all as prey, Daxton must risk everything to escape - and, in an unexpected twist, save the very enemies who hunted him. But saving them comes at a heavy price... and not everyone will leave the wreck field alive. This story will be fast-paced, chaotic, dangerous, and packed with critical character shifts: fear, betrayal, loyalty, and seeds of doubt planted in Kyle's mind.Complete
