Depths of Magic #5
Sea Escape
They want to abandon me on shore? Too bad. I’m not the forgettable type.
I’m alone—again. Story of my life. My boyfriend left me, my octopus sidekick is returning home, and my relationship with my fellow half-siren Branc is getting more complicated. That’s all bad enough, but there’s worse on the horizon.
Half-sirens on land are losing their memories of our underwater former home. Something smells like rotten seaweed, and it’s not the low tide. Branc and I dive into the mystery, and it runs deeper than I feared. We’re at risk of discovery by humans. Answers slip through my fingers like water, until the biggest secret of my life slaps me on the face.
We’re battling for our very lives against those who want us abandoned, forgotten, and dying painfully on shore. Even if my friends don’t see it, the situation is hopeless. But I’ve never been one to accept my fate without a fight.
