LOGINAfter I rejected Silas, his eyes turned red with fury. He laughed maniacally, and the shrill, piercing sound echoed through the depths of the sea. "If I can't have happiness, then none of you deserve it!" he shouted. "I'll let this ocean burn with my suffering!"As soon as he finished speaking, Silas pulled out a secret relic from his pack. It was a black orb that glowed with a cold, eerie light.He detonated it without hesitation. In a flash, a terrifying surge of power ripped through the deep sea, as if it would tear the entire ocean apart. "Watch out!"Drake's expression darkened as he immediately activated the merfolk's protective power. A towering wall of water rose before us, shielding us from the full force of the shockwave.I drew in a deep breath and channeled my spiritual energy. Before long, my restored voice rang out, carrying a wave of powerful, resonant sound.The wave spread outward, solid and forceful. It collided with Silas' attack, then erupted into a thunder
Silas, on the other hand, had spent a fortune buying books and consulting countless experts. In the end, he discovered a reference to a transoceanic passage in ancient records.Within the passage, violent currents tore at his body. Each step he took drew him closer to death. Even as an Alpha and with his wolf fully awakened, Silas' powers were completely restrained within the passage. He could rely on nothing but his own physical strength.Yet, one thought consumed him. He had to find me and plead for my forgiveness.…When Silas finally reached the deep sea, he staggered into the merfolk ceremony, disheveled and exhausted.I was clad in an exquisite merfolk ceremonial gown, and my singing resonated through the water. The sight hit Silas like a bolt of lightning.Beside me stood Drake. When our eyes met, we smiled at each other. The unspoken understanding and warmth between us struck Silas like a knife to the heart. He staggered forward, stripped of all Alpha pride, and dropp
The second I fell into the glacier fissure, it felt as though I was plunging into an abyss. Icy seawater closed in, but in no time, a group of merfolk reached me and pulled me to safety. My mother—the merfolk queen, held in the highest regard—gently pressed a pearl imbued with the ocean's magic against my throat. A light flashed, and my damaged vocal cords were miraculously restored. Yet, for the time being, the long years of injury left me unable to reclaim the ethereal voice I once possessed. As the princess of the merfolk, I had been meant to uphold the order of the seas and safeguard this vast, blue realm. But whenever I patrolled the waters, my gaze inevitably drifted toward the brilliant coral reefs, my heart heavy with memories of what I had lost.…One day, as I wandered near the coral formations, I heard the soft stir of a current behind me. I turned to see a merfolk knight clad in silver-scaled armor. It was Drake Gibson. His gaze was calm and gentle, as though
Not long after, Silas found the pregnancy test I had discarded in my room's trash can. It was only then that he realized the day he had gone to the healing center with Helena for her checkup, I had found out I was pregnant too."So, Annie is carrying my offspring… Yet, I…" he muttered. "No. I will bring her and our offspring back!"Silas then turned to his subordinates and roared, "Search every ancient tome about the deep sea! I don't care what it takes. Find a way to open the glacier!"His voice echoed through the room. The subordinates trembled in fear, nodding frantically before scrambling out. Silas collapsed onto the floor, clutching his head in his hands. Out of the corner of his eye, he spotted a memory crystal I had left forgotten in the corner of the room. He picked it up. As his fingers brushed the crystal, a faint glow shimmered, and visions appeared within. In the vision, Helena's lips curled into a mocking smile as she hissed, "You're just someone who can barely
By the time Silas returned home, all that greeted him was an empty room. A flicker of unease crossed his face as he asked, "Where's Luna Annelise?""Luna Annelise went out last night. S-She hasn't returned," the maid replied, her voice trembling. "What?"As soon as Silas heard that I hadn't returned all night, his expression changed drastically. He pulled out his phone and saw a long string of missed calls. But when he tried to call back, no one answered.Panic seized him like never before. "No… That's impossible. Annie wouldn't leave me."He immediately ordered a search for my whereabouts but found nothing. Helena, on the other hand, feigned concern. "Don't worry, Alpha Silas. I'm sure Luna Annelise just went out to clear her head. She's a mermaid, after all. Where else could she go without you?"She spoke gently, but deep down, she wished that I would never return. Suddenly, Silas' eyes lit up. He shoved Helena aside and exclaimed, "That's right! She's a mermaid!"Just as
I followed close behind as Silas headed for the helpers' quarters. Helena was slumped on the floor, tears streaming down her face. The moment she saw Silas, she cried even harder.She rushed toward him and tried to throw her arms around him, but he pushed her away, saying, "I warned you not to show up! From this moment on, you're fired. Get out!"Through her sobs, Helena pleaded, "I missed you too much, Alpha Silas. I couldn't stop myself from going to the banquet. Please… Don't send me away.""You hurt Annelise. You have to leave. Either you go on your own, or I'll have you expelled from the pack."Almost immediately, Helena blurted, "I just wanted to tell you that I'm pregnant. Please don't send me away!"Silas' face lit up with barely contained excitement. "Really? Fine. For the sake of the pup, I'll give you one last chance. Do not appear in front of Annelise again, or I won't hesitate to expel you from the pack."Helena nodded obediently.Seeing that, I turned to leave.
