My little mermaid is a natural swimmer. Once she got over her fear of the water. But why aren’t her gills working? Curses can alter physical forms, of course. I once knew a werewolf who was cursed to shift into a wolf spider rather than an actual wolf.

The poor guy kept falling through the slats of his deck until he groveled at the witch’s feet for days on end.

We spend hours chasing one another, and she’s even brave enough to dive all the way down to the bottom to skim her fingers through the sand.

The sun is high in the sky, and her shoulders are starting to look a bit pink. Fuck. I should have remembered sunscreen.

I’m about to motion for her to swim back to me when she disappears. It happened so quickly, it couldn’t have been intentional, and my heart jumps into my throat.

Diving straight down with powerful flutter kicks, I call on all of my power to carry me fifty feet in under three seconds, then turn in a circle. Nothing. Until I hear her scream.

Ripples disturb the chilly water directly ahead of me, and I take off, closing the distance between us as my own natural underwater breathing abilities take over. What I wouldn’t give for my Trident right now, but there’s no time. I don’t need it to use my power, but if I have to fight? It comes in handy.

Channeling a strong current to carry me with even more speed, I can see her now.

Serea’s body is limp, held by a merman at least twice her size. His massive tail has a seven-foot span, and he doesn’t seem to notice that she’s not breathing. He will need a miracle to spare his life.

“Let! Her! Go!” I roar, and the power of my voice clears the area of every other living thing. The fish dart away without a second look, a whale in the distance turns around, and the coral shudders with fear.

The merman stops, whips around, and hurtles a spell at me. The magic escapes his fingers as a bolt of yellow lightning, and my muscles seize. Immortality is a boon, but it won’t do shit if I can’t free Serea from his hold and get her to the surface in the next minute. She’s already been under too long.

“My mistress wants her body on display for the entire kingdom to see. It would be nothing to put yours on a pike as well.”

Closing my eyes, I send out a call for aid as I struggle to regain control of my muscles. In the distance, a whale with a babe in tow answers, and I shake off the last of the spell. The merman wears a kind of armor I’ve never seen before. It’s solid gold and glowing with power.

“Last warning, you pitiful minion! Your mistress will know my wrath for what she’s done. Help me and live. Resist me, and you will meet your end.”

The merman—if that’s even what he is—balls his fist
