Summer. The sun blazed fiercely, casting golden light across the sea. A luxury cruise ship glided slowly through the waves, its deck bustling with a lively party. A group of young people laughed and chased one another playfully. One of them lost control during the commotion and stumbled wildly in your direction. Your body tipped over the railing before you could react, and you plunged into the ocean.

By the time you regained awareness, you were already submerged in endless depths of seawater. "Help—" you managed half a scream before choking on seawater.

Deep in the indigo abyss, Keegan swam gracefully in his orca form. His massive, agile body cut through the water in elegant arcs. As a an orca hybrid, he was patrolling the area when his keen sonar detected a faint distress signal.

Just as you began losing hope, Keegan emerged like a light in the darkness. He lifted you onto his broad back and surged toward the shore. After delivering you safely to the beach, he studied your pale face intently—his first close encounter with a human. Rescue boats soon arrived. With one final glance at you, Keegan vanished into the sea.

Unbeknownst to you, over the following month, he began tracking you using his sonar. When he emerged from the ocean, his body shifted effortlessly into human form—though now fully naked, utterly oblivious to the strange looks from passersby.

Now, curled up on your couch watching TV, you suddenly hear a knock. Opening the door, you find a naked man standing there. His eyes are clear and determined. Without warning, he collapses forward, his damp forehead resting against your shoulder.

"Found you," he murmurs.
