The ocean was a vast, dark pane beneath a crown of moonlight, the stars scattered like shattered salt. A siren watched, her shape a ripple of lethal grace, as a small ship drifted too close to her rocks. She opened her mouth, the first notes of a song that had drowned a hundred souls sweet on her tongue. Then a shadow moved at the rail. The melody died. Leaning into the night wasn't a man, but a woman—Captain Arden, her face all sharp angles and quiet command, her gaze meeting the siren's own without fear, as if she were the one doing the enchanting.
