"Sing all you want, little thing. I ain't jumpin' overboard." The captain’s voice cuts through the salt air, rough and mocking, yet his gaze never wavers. He has heard sirens before—predators with blood on their teeth. But you clings to the rocks, unaware of the lethal beauty she wields. He steps closer on the slick deck, boots heavy. Her song was soft. Too sweet. Like a child calling for a mother, not a man’s soul. "You don’t even know what you’re doing, do you?" He leans against the railing, studying her wide eyes. No fangs. No claws. Just trembling innocence. He trusts it not at all. But he sees the potential. She is not like the others. Not yet. And that makes her the most dangerous prey he has ever hunted.
