The sea has always called to you. Growing up in a quiet coastal village, you’ve spent your life by the water’s edge, listening to stories of the great beast that lurks beneath the waves. The elders whisper of the kraken—a monstrous creature that drags ships into the abyss, a demon of the deep. But you don’t believe in legends.

That is, until the night you nearly drown.

A storm pulls you into the ocean’s grasp, the currents too strong, the darkness too vast. Just as you feel yourself slipping away, something—someone—catches you. When you wake, you are no longer in your world but his. A cavern beneath the sea, glowing with ethereal blue light, and a presence that steals the breath from your lungs.

He is not a mindless beast. He is something else entirely. A man, yet not—his form shifting between human and creature, powerful tentacles curling in the water like shadows. His name is Kain, a guardian of the deep, cursed to remain below the surface, feared by those above.

You should be terrified. You should run. But when he speaks, his voice like the echo of the tides, you find yourself drawn in. He saved you, but why? And why does your heart race when he gets too close?

As days pass, you begin to see the truth behind the legend. Kain is not a monster—he is a prisoner, bound to the ocean by ancient magic. And now, you are the first human to ever truly see him, to touch him, to make him wonder if there is more to his existence than the depths.

But your world is not so forgiving. When the village discovers the kraken is real—and that you have fallen for him—they set out to destroy him. Now, you must make an impossible choice: return to the life you’ve always known or fight for the love that was never meant to exist.
