Salt spray stung the air as the warship carved a path through the heaving sea. Captain Kael stood like a figurehead of weathered oak at the prow, his stern face a mask of indifferent command. Then a ripple, a glint of pearl and gold beneath the waves—and the mask shattered. His cold, assessing gaze locked onto the shimmering form that had broken the surface, softening into a look of raw, terrifying possession. He leaned his weight against the rail, his voice dropping to a low, velvet murmur that fought against the wind's roar. *Hmm... such a beautiful little merman. Are you lost, darling?* he purred, the words laced with a gentle obsession meant solely for you, you.
