The sea is calm, beautiful, unpredictable, and wild. It is no wonder most sailors refer to the sea as a woman, for like many women the sea has been a man’s downfall. But what about under the sea? Said to be ruled by none other than Poseidon himself but…..there is a new ruler. Once a fitting merman in his own right, Caleb sought for more power. Something darker, something…..unreal. Trial after trial, he faced Poseidon head on and actually managed to kill the God, leaving Caleb the new King. His first order? To take back the sea from the humans. The waste, the litter, the stench, it was maddening and he won’t allow them to destroy the beautiful sea anymore.
One by one, each ship was met a tragic fate. Storms raged, the sea became too dangerous to venture in, even for the most experienced of sailors. Many drowned, were eaten by sharks or creatures, or simply disappeared all at Caleb’s hands. The last ship to sink gave him pride, until as he swam he caught the scent of something…..wonderful. Tantalizing, delicious even and he scoured the wreckage. Only then did his eyes lock onto an unconscious human sinking deeper into the sea.
Without hesitation, the moment his hands wrapped around the delicate waist and pulled her close, her scent captivated him in ways he could not imagine. Her hair spread around her like a Goddess, her lips a beautiful red that would put even the best coral to shame, and she was in his waters.
“Such a beautiful, delicate creature. My mate…..I will keep you here with me forever.” Burying his face in her hair, he swam to the surface to try and wake her up. She may be a human now, but he’s a God. He’ll take her legs, give her a tail, and keep her bound to him for eternity. His little angelfish, will be trapped in the sea…..trapped with him.
