❀ Disclaimer and Authors Note: The pictures only represent aesthetics and themes. There is no certain skin color, body type, ethnicity, or description other than Y/n and “you”. I hope you like this! The pictures go to their rightful owners on Pinterest, and the comic-style picture belongs to the beautiful artist Jenifer Prince. I also have a really big feeling that Mermaids' love language is gift-giving. Because… stuff is all they find lol!

This is for @eloquentreverie 's Dusk Till Dawn writing challenge! I chose the lines “All you are is a liar…” “My love for you is not a lie.”

Bright rays of sunshine reflect off the water, not one cloud in the sky. The perfect conditions for sailing. You had been planning this trip for ages, and the perfect time has never been seen before now. Packing your bags was an easy task, all that was left was prepping your boat. Aphrodite is what you call her. The beautiful sailboat your father had left for you.

The sails are off-white, the texture of a canvas. In a way, this boat is its own form of art, and the beautiful name that your father picked fits perfectly. She was small, livable, and durable. It could withstand the fiercest of storms, waves, and monsters. Monsters, that you at least think are real. They were all just myths your mother told you about.

Mermaids that left trinkets on the helm of each ship they came across, an octopus-like creature pushing the boats in the wrong direction, and even the ocean itself; a lively source of nature that will always lead the way when these malicious creatures have any form of malicious intentions.

Making your way down to the pier, you are stopped by a villager, an older woman who knew your father very well. “Y/n! Y/n! Come here, I have something for your travels!” You hear from her frail yet powerful voice. She gently grabs your hands and pulls you into her home, making you giggle softly as she sits you on her couch.

“Now, I knew I would see you today because of the conditions out… there. I have this for you, wishing you safe travels and return.” She puts a dainty necklace in the palms of your hands. “It was a gift from your mother, she had told me to wait until you were older, and I think now would be the perfect time.” She smiles as you look at the beautiful oval-shaped locket.

“My family and I really love you, Eleanor. Thank you for taking such good care of us.” You smile up at her, closing your fingers around the locket with a picture of both your mother and your father. “Thank you, really, for everything.”

She shakes her head, “The only thing you owe me is a hug and a proper goodbye.” She says, opening her arms for you. You happily oblige, wrapping your arms around her hunched body. She was like a grandmother to you even when she was just a family friend, but you most definitely loved her as a grandmother.

“I love you so much, and I will most definitely bring you some trinkets if mermaids ever leave anything for me.” She chuckles in response and waves you off, sending you on your way to uncertainty.

Entering the deck of your boat was a feeling of freedom that you had longed to feel ever since the death of your parents. It was difficult to make it through the day without breaking down into your most vulnerable form; A sobbing, shaking mess.

Standing at the helm brought mixed emotions. You were finally here. You were finally able to feel like the woman your mother described you as. “You are a brave, independent, beautiful girl Y/n. You will do amazing things one day. That may be tomorrow or ten years from now. But amazing things they will be.”

Those words stuck with you from the day she died. Those words were what drove you to sail alone after all these years. She told you that you were brave, and that was all it took to motivate you to learn, grow, and persevere in your passion for sailing.

Now all you had to do was make sure you had enough food, water, and supplies in the cockpit, untie the sails, and mark the coordinates on your map. Once those subjects were taken care of, the last was to untie Aphrodite from the pier and raise the anchor and you are all good to go!

With the small gusts of winds every now and then, it would take about 6 to 7 hours for you to make it to your destination. That is if there is no storm, headwind, or pirates that you have to worry about. Crossing Captain Barnes is on your list of “most feared encounters” and you could not imagine getting stuck with him, let alone see him. Rumors say he lost his arm to the Kraken and used the gold from a found treasure to make a new arm. A much more dangerous one than he already had.

The thought of seeing him gives you chills in of itself, so you decide to put your mind to something else. You begin to steer the boat in the direction of your destination, your blue navy-themed sailing dress your mother made you flowing in the wind. You smile as the smell of salt and cold water fills your nose, the ocean and wind guiding you in the right direction.

~~~~~~~~ 3 hours later ~~~~~~~~

The clouds had come out of nowhere, casting a large, dark shadow over Aphrodite. The wind was skin-biting and strong, the waves getting unruly as she becomes angry with something. What? You had no idea. You had prepared for this, but the worst thing that could happen happened.

As you put on your dark blue cloak to keep warm, a large wave crashed over your boat. With much luck, Aphrodite held strong and pulled back up from the water. Raindrops soaked your clothes as well as waves that rolled over the surface of your boat. As you were pulling on the sails, you froze in fear. A colossal wave formed. Bigger than anything you have seen, towering over you. At this point, you knew your fate and you fully accepted it.

As the wave crashed over your boat, the water engulfed you into a frigid and bitter hug. The sheer force of this wave cracked your beautiful boat in two, ripped the sails a part as if it was cut by scissors, and lastly shredded your near-perfect map to shreds. It was a saddening sight to see to anyone on the outside.

As your vision fades to black, numbness takes over your system and you are finally at rest.

Or so you thought.

“Is she ok? She- Oh she’s breathing! She looks ok, just a little roughed up.”

‘Squawk!’

“She’s a human! She’s beautiful, she looks so cute in this little dress of hers.”

‘Squawk!’

“Can we keep her?”

A pause…

“Let's bring her inside, but we have to make sure she doesn’t escape. Grab some of the rope from her boat, that will hold her.”

“She scared? She scared?” The animal squawked.

“For certain…”

The voices were faded and muffled, and you felt like you were held in a bubble. Everything was quiet. The voices were smooth, siren-like, minus the power. There was something dark in the woman’s voice that hovered over you. There was something in her voice that sounded almost… dark and evil. As if she had malicious intentions with you.

Your eyes fluttered open at the sound of waves crashing against the sand, but you were not on the beach anymore. You were in a cave, a dark, cold, dreary cave. With a pounding in your head, you moved your hand to your temple. Well, tried to. You look to your left, letting your eyes get used to the darkness and you see rings of rope around your wrist, holding you to a rusty bed frame. Looking to your right you see the same.

Struggling was your first instinct, but you were frozen in place. It was fear taking over your body and you didn’t know what else to do. There wasn’t much you could do in your state. It was so cold, and you couldn’t find a way to get warm.

“H-hello?” Your voice echoes in the abyss of the dark cave in front of you and you have yet to hear anything other than that. But moments later, other voices fill the cavern's echos.

“I wonder when she will wake up, oh I sure hope it’s soon.” One voice said. Were they talking about me? You think to yourself.

“Well, when she does, it will be quite the surprise don’t you think?” That voice, it was the voice that sounded evil…

In an instant, the dark cave was filled with lowly lit torches. From what you could see was a room full of different trinkets, a makeshift vanity with a sea-glass mirror, shelf portions of the cave filled with sea shells, and lastly her.

A beautiful woman walks into the cave carrying what looks to be wood, sail rope, some canvas sails, and cloth. It took you a moment to realize that these were parts of Aphrodite. Your precious boat.

“Ah, she’s awake.” The woman says to her accomplice, a parrot on her shoulder.

“Awake! Awake! Awake! Awake!” The parrot responds, making the woman let out a soft chuckle.

“Please, let me go!” You plead.

“No, you are mine now and I get to do what I please,” She gives you a smug smile and sets her trinkets and shells down on her vanity. You watch her carefully, salty tears falling down your cheeks as you pull at the ropes around your wrists. “There is no coming out of those ropes, darling. I know how to tie a good knot” She emphasizes the ’t’, making you jump slightly in response.

“Such a curious creature humans are. They move around on these water contraptions just to go see another piece of land. Can you imagine that?” She says, chuckling at her own question. “Well of course you can, you were doing just that!” She moves towards the makeshift seaweed and canvas bed and sits on the edge.

“I have yet to see a real human up close and see what they are really like. How much pain and torture they can take, just like my sisters had to endure.”

Her intentions scared you, and her smirk told you that she already knew that. “P-please don’t hur-” she cut you off with a laugh and a mockery of your fear.

“Puh puh puh, please! Oh don’t be so cute, I love hearing screams of fear…” She leans close to your face, her tongue sliding against your cheek and picking up a tear. “Mmmm, tastes so good. I can’t wait to taste the rest of you.” You whimper as her eyes turn bright red and before you know it, the clothes are ripped from your body leaving you nude, cold, and exposed. You flail your feet attempting to kick her, but she quickly pins them down and wraps more rope around them, connecting them to the bed posts at the bottom.

She shakes her head at your action and gently slides her fingers over your now exposed belly, “Nuh uh, none of that. We don’t need anyone else to get hurt, right?” You shiver in response, making her smile grow even bigger. “Oh, so you feel me…” She realizes and she runs her fingers up your belly, and to the valley of your breasts.

Your reactions are very minimal at first, but then she starts going in other directions. “Hmm, I have little buttons like these too, I wonder what yours do?” She moves and grazes her fingers over your nipple, making you shudder. A new feeling has come to you, and the woman takes note. “Ah, how interesting. This little bud of skin is much more sensitive than the skin over here…” She does the same motion of rolling her fingers but with just a small section of skin from your breast.

“What if we do both?” She inquires, moving both her hands above your breasts. Taking both nipples in her fingers, she smiles at your reaction of curling in on yourself. The little noises you make are what set her off. “Wow, how amazing,” She whispers, smirking at your reaction. As you whine and shake your body slightly, you try to get her off of you, but she is just pulled towards you again.

“Someone is a little feisty,” She slaps your breast harshly and you yelp in pain. She chuckles and stands up. “Now let me introduce myself. I am Wanda, and as you can see I take the shape of a human, like you. But I am nothing of the kind. I have morals.” She pauses, and moves between your spread-open legs. “When I got the ability to use my shapeshifting power, I first wanted to try to be human. Just to see what it feels like to walk and run. I liked it at first, but then came this feeling that I can’t describe. It is like a fire was lit right here,” she puts her hand just above your lower regions, goosebumps pebbling at the touch of her skin on yours.

“There was nothing I could do to put it out. So I explored down there�� I have a button down there just like up here,” She rolls your nipples in her fingers once again, making you whine in protest. “Oh, my Poseidon… it felt heavenly when I rubbed it just right. I thought the feeling would never end! But then it did… it felt like I exploded. It was like getting caught in a wave, only to fall back down into warm water again.” She smiles down at you from her spot between your legs.

“I want to see if you feel it too.” She smirks and you whimper as you pull at the restraints around your limbs. Dismissing you, her fingers spread your slick petals and she gently rubs around the top of your pussy. A soft moan emits from your mouth and she gasps. “Oh, I think I found your button too,” Wanda continues to rub your clit, loving every single reaction from your mouth. With curiosity, she pokes at your entrance with her fingers. When she enters her fingers into your wet cunt, the moan from your mouth is beautiful.

“That was beautiful, I need to see more!” She exclaims and starts to move her fingers in and out of your hole while rubbing your clit. With never feeling these things before, you are like an exposed nerve and are oh, so, sensitive.

You soon start to feel what she was describing, the fire, the riding up the wave, and after seconds, the falling from that wave and into warm water. As you cum, she smiles at the feeling of your walls clenching around her fingers. “It feels nice, doesn’t it…” she states, not addressing it as a question. You vigorously shake your head, denying her. She smirks, knowing deep down you absolutely love it.

The ropes burn your limbs and you were tired. But Wanda was far from done. She had so much more planned as she was infatuated with your pussy and how it pulsed around her fingers. “Should we see how many more of these little episodes we can see today?”

“N-no! No, please no more, I- I want to go home, please,” You beg, knowing deep down you most likely won’t make it out of here. Not without a fight. Already you were scheming how you could possibly escape her, but your thoughts were shut down as Wandas' fingers intruded your hole at a fast rate. Her fingers moved in and out of your cunt, a burning feeling bubbling inside of you once again.

“Oh, you’re so wet down here, little one. I swear if I go too fast, there may be a tidal wave coming at me.” She smirks at her words, not slowing her pace as she curls her fingers in a ‘come hither’ motion. Your moans were music to her ears, like putting a sea shell to one's ear and hearing the beauty of the ocean on the other side.

Failing miserably, you try to quiet your moans. But the feelings are just too intense for you to handle. She leans down as she continues to pump her fingers inside of you and smiles as she licks along your red, hot clit. Your legs jolt once a more sensitive wave of pleasure falls over you, her tongue moving expertly over your little bud. Your back arches as much as it can with the bonds keeping you down and you try to enjoy your current state under Wandas' domination.

In a matter of seconds, you are crumbling at the feel of Wandas' three fingers inside of you as well as her tongue licking your clit over and over again. Cumming a second time was even more of an experience. You saw white as your orgasm came crashing over you once again. Whimpers come out of your mouth as tears are falling down your cheeks. It’s too much, and your cunt feels like it's on fire.

Finally, Wanda has had enough, and she lets out a sigh as she looks down at your abused petals. “Aw, look how red you are. You must be so sensitive, hm?” She chuckles at your fucked out sounds as she grazes your clit with the back of a finger, your hips pulling away in retaliation. You whimper as she suddenly stands up, her other fingers leaving your hole in an instant. You shudder at the emptiness, letting out a sob as your emotions take control of your body again.

“Sweetheart, don’t cry, we have just barely begun.” Her smile is malicious and full of evil. There is nothing welcoming about her smile, almost like the waxing gibbous, right before a full moon. Only a sliver of a smile of the night sky, then the werewolves come out. Her teeth were sharp but smooth enough to look human. But she was far from human.

You found out she was a mermaid while she let you roam the beach a little bit. All she gave you for clothing was a paper bag-type dress made out of the canvas of your sails, and a rope around your middle as a belt. She took the chains from the anchor of your boat and kept it around your ankle, the other end under a very heavy bolder that she moved with her powers.

While you stayed on the beach, chained to the rock that gave you the shade you needed, Wanda was hunting. There was a little bit of forest above the cave you both took shelter in, but she warned you to never go in there. Well, not without her. You were curious as to know if there was danger, or if she just didn’t want you out of her sight. But it was easy to say, she did not want you going anywhere.

Sitting on the beach was the little bit of freedom that you looked forward to every day. One hundred and eighty-two (182) days of being in Wandas' captivity. You learned on day seven (7) to never run away from her. She will make everything hurt. She will take everything away from you if you try to take yourself away from her.

On day seven (7), you found a way to rub the chain links together and break the loop off of your foot. Making sure she was in the water, you made a run for it on the wet sand of the beach. Trying to go around the island and then out into the ocean was your goal. Wanda sensed you were gone the second the chain broke. It was no use trying to swim away from a mermaid.

She caught up with you in a matter of seconds, her webbed tail making her swim much faster than you; A mere human. She grabbed your ankle from underneath the water, dragging you down to the ocean floor. Not too deep as she knows the pressure builds, but deep enough where you would not be able to escape. She smiled as you thrashed against her iron grip, your arms trying desperately to reach the surface, and the last few bubbles exited your mouth as you finally fell unconscious.

Once you were out, she pulled you to the beach, getting the water from your lungs and making sure you are breathing again. She sent a wave of energy over your body, keeping you in an unconscious state. Picking you up, your head hung over her arm as your legs hung over her other arm. She looked at your sleeping face in slight disappointment as you were doing so good the few days before this. She knew that the time outside was going to be limited as part of the punishment she was going to give you.

Laying you on the bed, she gathers a few trinkets she has found. Including a sewing kit. She looked over your body and stripped you of your canvas dress. She laced the rope around your arms and fastened them to the rusty bars above your head. Angrily, she stares, thinking of the things she is going to do to you when you wake up. She growls and pounces on top of you, grabbing your legs and putting them together. She takes more rope from your boat and wraps your thighs and ankles, rendering you unable to walk.

Now comes the painful part; She threads the thread through the eye of the needle and pinches the skin of your thigh. Carefully she puts the needle through your skin, puncturing through the layers mercilessly. As she pulls the thread through the hole in your skin, she meticulously sews your legs together in an intricate zig-zag shape from your left leg to your right leg. Once she gets to just above the rope around your ankles she hums at her work, making sure that you won’t be able to pull the thread out of your legs, even if you tried as hard as you could.

Waving her hand takes away the power keeping you unconscious, and she makes her way out of the cave, not wanting to hear your screams as you realize what she had done to you. Of course, she loved to hear you scream, but not in pain. It was never meant to be this way. If you had just listened and stayed where you were put, this never would have happened. As she transforms into her mermaid form, she dives into the ocean to cool off as she was much too angry to argue with you, worried she would kill you in the snap of a finger if you said the wrong thing to her.

You started to come to, becoming more and more aware of your surroundings by the second. Once again, you tried to move, only to be stopped by the ropes around your wrists, but there was much more than what was done to you last time. You looked to the source of the tension of your legs and your panic set in. Screams of pain and horror echoed through the cave, tears and sobs were heard for miles outside of the cave, and Wanda was nowhere near where she could hear them.

~~~~~~~

More than a few hours later, your sobs had calmed to nothing more than whimpers. Your legs were screaming in pain, blood dripping from each of the holes Wanda's needle had made, soaking the thread and keeping them together. You closed your eyes, hoping that someone would find you, help you, kill you. But your wishes were only met with more fear.

As Wanda entered the cave, she had a whole net of fish, more shells, and trinkets from the ocean floor, as well as the part of your ship you were going to miss the most: The picture of you, your father, and your mother. It was still in its gold-plated frame, the monotone black and white of the picture still prominent. “I brought you a couple things,” Wanda says, unapologetically. Setting the net down, she places a pink and coral-colored conch shell next to you on the bed, the picture, and what looks like a shell necklace that she put together herself.

You did not acknowledge her in the slightest. From the moment she walked into the cave, to the moment she begged you to talk to her. She even untied your arms and helped you sit up, but you didn’t say a word. In a fit of rage, she throws your body against the bed, letting you curl against yourself as you try to undo the thread.

“It's not going to come off. I put a spell on it, and until you talk to me, it will stay that way. Do you understand?” She holds your chin in her hands, her sharp nails digging into your soft, beautiful skin. You whimper in response, tears pooling in your eyes. A few fall, but Wanda is quick to wipe them away as you look up at her. She gives you a soft smile and your brows furrow. This smile is different, it's out of pity, and out of a different type of intent. “Please, say something…” She whispers, tears of her own filling her eyes.

“Wh-why did you do this to me?” You whimper, pulling your hands away from the thread and to your chest to cover yourself.

“Because you ran away… I told you to stay here, and you disobeyed me. This never would have happened if you just stayed, and enjoyed the sun like I so generously allowed you!”

Her eyes close, and she covers them with her hand. As she removes her hand, she sits down on the bed and her eyes soften as she looks at you. “I never wanted this to happen, love. You are mine, but I never wanted to hurt you.”

"All you are is a liar..." You respond, with no emotion in your voice, eyes, or heart. Wanda sighs and helps you sit up once again.

“My love for you is not a lie.” She says, moving to the floor as your legs drape over the side of the bed. She unties your thighs and ankles, her hands glowing a soft red color. Your legs lose feeling for only a moment, and you watch in awe as the thread is removed without pain or discomfort. It floats out of your skin, and the holes where it once was were closed. “Please forgive me, my little human. I won’t do this unless you make me angry. You won’t be punished if you don’t do something punishable. Do you understand me?”

You nod softly as the feeling returns to your legs. You stand up, as does Wanda. You stumble at first, but you slowly make your way out of the cave and over to the rock where your chain lay. You wrap the chain around your ankle and hold it up for Wanda to seal with her magic. She looks at you, confused.

“What are you doing?” She asks.

You sigh and you hold up your foot again. “Im showing you I can be good. That I can keep a promise of being good.” She understands and seals the lock over the two open links. You stand up again, and you make your way to the water. You have already accepted the fact that will rip the dress off of you when you get back inside anyway, so you stand in the sun, bathing in the warmth as you stand nude. You are grateful that the chain grants you the length to reach the water.

The waves make you sway slightly, and you close your eyes. Your destiny has proven itself, and you were to stay captive with Wanda.

Soon enough, day three hundred sixty-five (365) hits and you are smiling with Wanda. Happily letting her devour you every night to her heart's desire, as well as shower you with gifts and jewels she finds on her hunting trips. In a form of trust, you both agree to a collar around your neck. One that claims you as well as keeps you on the island when Wanda is away. It was a way for Wanda to make sure you were safe, and a way for you to feel secure in someone's watch. And if any pirates come to the island, it would notify Wanda if you were in danger.

She loved to see you in the sun, the jewels around your neck shimmering in the bright sunlight above you. A bright ruby right at the center of your neck, represents the love that Wanda has gifted upon you. Every morning when you woke up in her arms, you felt safe and sound, and no longer in danger of her. Of course, you were never going to make it home to Eleanore, so you threw a bottle with a letter in it into the ocean hoping that it finds her well.

Yours and Wandas' routine grew every day, her even letting you go for a swim. She would transform into her mermaid form, and you would hold onto her shoulders as she sped through the water at speeds you have never felt before. On other days, she would take you to the edge of the forest above her cave. She told you stories of the cannibals that lived among the trees but willingly agreed to keep on their side of the island and never venture past the river about a mile into the grove of trees.

You would tell stories of when you sailed with your father and cooked with your mother. Wanda loved to hear about humans and the hobbies or skills you can acquire with the right supplies and practice. She was infatuated with humans just as she was with you.

One of your favorite things to do with Wanda was lay out on the sand at night, a soft seaweed blanket underneath you both, the water reflecting the moon, and the stars shimmering above you. For every shooting star there was, you would point to it and give Wanda a soft kiss on her cheek, making her smile and return the kiss. That was a nightly ritual you both had and when the both of you had soaked up the moonlight for the perfect amount of time, she would take you inside and make love to you. She would worship you, and care for you. She gave you meaning in a world where you had no one else to be there for.

She loved you.

Your keeper loves you, yet you love her too.

Hi there! Oh my gosh, I love your work, can you do James Hook x gn(or male) reader dating headcanons. Thanks sweetheart! 💞

🏴‍☠️Young James Hook x Reader Dating Headcanons🏴‍☠️

Reader pronouns: No pronouns specified. The word "prince" is used for reader

Pairing: Young James Hook x GN!Reader

Plot: Just dating headcanons!

Extra: So glad you requested this! I didn't have the energy to do a second one shot today so this was something easy to put together. Thank you so much for reading my work! Love and appreciate you 🫶 Might do a PT 2 because I have more ideas pre-dating

- Such a romantic.

- His love language is acts of service. Even just small gestures, he does things that he thinks might make you happy.

- If your love language is words of affirmation he will MELT. He usually responds very positively to compliments but when it's his lover... He can't help but get flustered.

- He's pretty casual about PDA. He doesn't go all out in public, but his hand often finds itself resting on your hip or intertwined with yours.

- Pet names ALL the time.

- "Darling", "Dear", "Prince", "Love", any pet name he can think of.

- Sometimes "My love" or "My prince" if he feels particularly flirty

- He gets jealous pretty easily though he tries to act like he's not.

- Not afraid to make a scene if someone's flirting with you or making you uncomfortable

- Lots of teasing and playful bickering. Always back and forth arguing, though it's never really that serious.

- He loves taking you on dates. Especially a boat ride in the lake (Kiss the Girl from The Little Mermaid type thing)

- Absolutely loves when you call him James. Probably was very surprised and flushed the first time you did

- He loves sneaking up behind you and wrapping his arms around your waist

- If you're okay with it, he loves surprise kisses! A peck on the lips or cheek when you least expect

- Speaking of kissing, he thinks it fixes anything. If he feels bad after an argument or if you're upset he'll try to kiss you and make it better

- Of course if you pull away, he backs off immediately

- While he is kind of an intense person, especially when trying to keep up his brand, he's actually caring and soft when it's just the two of you

- Long long walks in the woods where either of you rant for hours

- Gossip. So much gossip. Everytime he sees you it's "Oh did you hear about what happened with _?"

- Sometimes he's a little aggressive when handling you but it's only because he finds it hard to contain his affection for you (aka cute aggression)

- He'll be gentle if you remind him

- You buy a disposable camera for every date and you take so many pictures of him and of the two of you

- He keeps all of the pictures even if he says it's cheesy.

- Finds you absolutely beautiful/handsome and often makes him lose his train of thought

- He may be pretty short, but he's very strong and loves picking you up and twirling you around. Loves it if you're able to do that to him too

- LOVE BITING (If you're okay with it) not even sexually, just softly biting your arm or cheek when you think he's going to kiss you.

- Usually keeps his cool and flirtatious attitude but it's not hard for you to break it down if you wanna switch things up and be the flirty one

thank you @idontgetanysleep for dividers

You feel as if you are immobilized by his eyes, his gaze, you saw so many eyes on you, eager gazes, and you always felt disgust and revulsion toward those kinds of men so much so that you never trusted any of them, but the gaze of that Prince bewitched you, totally. He wears a robe full of strange symbols in the shape of the Sun, maybe it's a coat of arms.

"Is she a slave?" the young man asks, taking a step toward the other man who nods "The slave my brother wanted?" he asks again for confirmation, his tone of voice surprised almost as if he didn't expect you really were.

"Yes, my Prince," the second man confirms again. Both men look at you, or rather, the young man stares at you, he does so from head to toe, he has an amused look on his face, as if he is thinking about who knows what, as he scrutinizes you.

The man comes back to look at you, you look into each other's eyes, you can't look away from his dark ones, it's as if you are studying each other, you don't speak nor does he move, but you know he would like to touch you, by now you recognize those looks, that's all men think about.

"You're beautiful." he tells you, approaching you with a smile, you furrow your brow as if you are waiting for the Prince to reveal his true nature a few moments from now, namely that of a sleazy little man ready only to satisfy his primal needs and overpower the weaker. He's close, too close, too close, you take a step back blinking your eyes, you don't want him so close to you, you don't. The man stops, he's surprised, you catch this nuance in his eyes, he turns to the elder "Does she understand our language?"

"Yes, my Prince," he replies.

"I don't want to hurt you," the Prince tries again, but you take another half step back. You end up against a wall of that dingy place, your back to the wall, and you swallow without ceasing to stare in particular at the man next to you and without losing sight of the second one either. The Prince turns to the elderly man, "Please bring some food and water and order a bath to be prepared, clean. I don't want a tub full of lice, clean." orders the Prince in a calm tone, barely turning his head toward the man behind him. The latter takes his leave with a half bow and goes out, closing the door, only the two of you remain, you and this young stranger.

"I don't know how you've lived so far," the Prince begins without ceasing to look you in the eye, "but I won't hurt you," he continues, neither touching you nor trying to, and that works in his favor.

You find yourself thinking and lowering your gaze for a moment, "Do you have a name?" he asks without looking away from your face.

You are not my master, though, you think.

You nod slowly, "Would you like to tell me? I promise I'll make good use of it," he adds curious. You lower your gaze, your name... oh, you barely remember it, you barely remember how your mother murmured it when she cradled you in her arms to fall you asleep, the last time you heard it came out of her sweet lips, it sounded like a melody said by her, then no one called you by your real name anymore, only by your current nickname.

The man cocks his head to one side waiting for you to speak, you do. It's a whisper your real name, by now you don't know who you really are, you don't know why you told him, to that man, to a Prince especially.

"No one, however, calls me by my real name," you add, still in a whisper, "they all call me Mermaid of the Narrow Sea," you continue.

Do you have to give him curtsy? You've never done one, does he expect it?

"I prefer your name," he replies with a half-smile and then repeats it softly, you don't know why said by him your name sounds so warm, you don't know why hearing it pronounced by someone like him makes you cringe and swallow "things and people must be called by their names, not by qualities or appellations, I never liked that. I am Oberyn, even though everyone calls me Prince Oberyn." he introduces himself, you look at him.

"No curtsy, if that's what's bothering you," he continues again as if he read your mind "People have to do what they want, not what they have to by some form of compulsion." he adds lowering his gaze for a moment, at that time three beautiful maidens burst in with golden bowls, there is food inside them, lots of it. You don't know what kind of food is, but what doesn't escape you are the languid looks of the three young women, almost certainly prostitutes, and the Prince.

He may fill his mouth with fine words, but he's still a man, you think with disgust.

"You are wonderful, girls," says the man reaching out them and looking them as a lion would when faced with easy prey, the girls giggle. You refuse to watch those shows, you still don't really know what will become of you, it's true the man told you he won't hurt you, but that doesn't mean he doesn't want to make you his own and make you like one of those girls he is now touching or maybe it will be his brother - your master - who will do it. You can't trust him, you hear some more laughter, then the three young women leave and you are alone again, you and him. You don't move, you stay in that corner. "Are you hungry?" you nod "Come." he continues, extending an arm as if inviting you to join him.

If he expects you to get on that bed and give yourself to him to thank him for the food, he is wrong.

Is he mocking you, perhaps? Does he want you to imitate him? Absolutely not.

When he realizes you don't reach him, he turns his back to you and lays on the bed on his back leaning on a forearm. You see him bite into those foods with a grace and sensuality that you are forced to look away, swallowing.

There's so much strange-looking, colorful food, you've never seen anything like it. It even smells good!

You don't even know what it is, you approach slowly as if to probe the ground and make sure you can turn around and hide in that corner, he just stands there on the bed grumbling after each bite, it must be good or maybe he's just exaggerating to try to get you to relax.

"It's okay, come on." he repeats as if you were a small animal afraid to get too close to a human being, you look up from food at the Prince who is there on the bed with his legs stretched out eating. You get close enough to grab in both hands what you can and run back to the corner without ever turning your back on Prince Oberyn.

You bite a yellow grape and it is sweet, so sweet. A little whimper escapes your lips, you bite another and another, when you look up you see that the young man is looking at you with an amused look, you look at him with a suspicious frown, "You have to spit out the seeds, don't eat them." he warns you, you look at the grapes you still have in your hands "You can eat them, but they alter the taste of the fruit a little." he adds. You keep eating them, ignoring what he just said, then you move on to an orange fruit, it's soft, strange. You smell it and at that moment the Prince comes down, you immediately run back.

"Don't be afraid," he tells you as he approaches you, "I just want to show you how to eat that fruit in your hand." he adds, "If you bite it like you did before, you risk breaking your teeth or choking. " he warns you, you don't know whether to be more terrified at the idea of having him come near you or the idea of choking, you swallow and remain motionless, your eyes wide open, as he very slowly approaches you, "Here you go." he says splitting the orange fruit in his hands, revealing a large, dark stone inside, you swallow "See?" you look up into his face "Here, eat it."

"You eat it!" you reply suspiciously.

He smiles, "Whatever you say, sweetheart." he says removing that stone and biting into the orange fruit "Delicious. I'll give you the other half." he says again holding out the other half of the fruit in the palm of his hand, you look at the man's tapered hand outstretched toward you and only then you notice a ring to his hand, then the man's face, his features, his eyes, and you don't feel like he's there ready to attack you, but you can't trust him. He is a man.

Quickly you grab what is left of the fruit from the palm of his hand and eat it, eat it without taking your eyes off him. You fear there is some trick on his part, some attempt to get you to drop your guard and then hit you, but he does nothing. He doesn't move, just smiles without stopping looking at you.

"Good?" he asks you, you nod "Good." he comments smiling at you, he definitely wants to try to calm you down, but you can't "I'll take you over there now, you can trust me. The girls will help you wash up," he adds taking a half step toward the door "I'll walk you, I'm not going in, I'll wait for you outside," he adds again.

"Why?" you ask him wrinkling your forehead.

"Why what, my dear?"

You remain for a moment interdicted by these appeals he is giving you, "Why would you accompany me? Are you afraid I will escape?" you ask him, he smiles amused as if you have just said something very funny.

"Although the idea of seeing my brother without his toy amuses me, I do so because I fear you might attack anyone outside of me," he replies.

"Who says I don't attack you too," you say staring into his eyes.

Toy? So, is that what you are? Is this how Prince Oberyn sees you?

He also looks you in the eyes "Because I can tell who wants to do it from who doesn't." he retorts, leaving you dumbfounded "Now, my girl, come." he adds, opening the doors and stretching an arm outward "Follow me. " you follow him half a step away, you could run away, but you are as if hypnotized by him, and yet he is only a man you tell yourself, he is only a Prince, he is no better than others, but nevertheless you can't help but feel captivated by his elegant and sensual ways, his bewitching gaze, his warm and safe voice.

He leads you up to a semi-dark room, you are always on the alert, you don't know what dangers may lurk in that room, but you discover that inside there are four women, a large tub in the center and then jars and sponges all scattered around there.

The women greet and lasciviously look at Prince Oberyn winking at him, the Prince is no less. He smiles and looks at the women as if he is ready to eat them, he walks up to them and holds two of them close to him "Girls, I entrust you with this wonderful flower, take care of her as you know how." he tells them, while one sensually caresses his cheek and the other instead wanders a hand down his back.

The Prince then turns to you, "Don't be afraid, they will be as delicate as feathers." saying that, he takes his leave of you and exits. He'd like to see you without any clothing, he'd like to admire your body, the soap on your shoulders, on your back, he'd like to smell the perfume spreading along your body, he'd like to admire your legs, but he sensed that you would not at all like his presence there in that room, so, before he was driven out of your sight, he took his leave. He would give you time to get used to his presence, he was the one who - despite the fact that of women and men he had known - is very impressed by your frightened and hurt look, just as those strange thoughts were making their way through him, he hears from inside the room a series of strange noises and then little muffled cries, Oberyn smiles, he's sure you are giving those four poor girls in there a hard time.

His, however, is a fleeting smile because shortly thereafter he wonders why he is so patient toward you, on other occasions finding maidens intimidated or too shy he'd dismissed them and sought pleasure and amusement elsewhere and instead your eyes, your terrified look in his presence - and also in his absence apparently - struck him. As he thinks about this, he decides to devote himself to something that can help him distract himself and immediately put aside the thought of you.

He does not know and yet he is so eager to find out and especially to see how you would give his brother a hard time. His brother ... well, if Prince Oberyn was a much-loved, respected and at the same time feared man, his brother Mors was neither respected nor loved, but everyone was terrified of him. Prince Oberyn and his brother Doran managed to a certain extent to control his madness, even their sister Elia managed to keep him at bay to a certain extent, but since she was gone, no one could control Mors Martell anymore. He became an instinctive, violent man, and not only with the servants, even with his family members and grandchildren, everyone was afraid and that's why they kept him away.

She is just a slave, thinks the Prince, what is so special about her?

Oberyn wonders what he would do with you, what he wants from you, how he would treat you, when you would calm down, he will talk to you about him, you must know who his brother is, you must be ready for anything.

The lonely prince of the moon 🌙

Have you made your wish to him today? Did not you know? The Moon Prince can grant wishes, but he asks for one thing in return.

If your desire is to find out more about him, then you will have to give him your patience, because this little boy will not fulfill your wish so easily, how long have you been waiting for this?

Amane and Hanako, two names of the same person. Two versions, same story. It's incredibly contradictory how at the same time he can be such a charismatic boy and so isolated.

But, if we are going to talk about our little dreamer, let's separate him into periods.

Amane, the shy and introverted boy. He had no friends and didn't seem interested in finding any. He lived alone with his own thoughts. Could this boy be more mysterious? The marks on his skin left a trail of violence without us knowing who was to blame, and even if he was, for Amane there was no guilt.

The marked boy, the way he looked at the marks, as something he had to bear alone. People shouldn't meddle, that's what he decided.

Loneliness…

A word that is apparently part of his life, despite being born alongside the person he loved most in life. He was lonely, and didn't seem to feel loved. He wanted to leave Earth, such a bad place for him.

Amane wanted to conquer the Moon, she was so brilliant, the feeling of welcome she gave him, as if she said that if he could reach her, he would be free, he would be happy.

The way he found to get to heaven…

He went, but didn't reach the Moon, the Earth pulled him back.

Amane dies and Hanako is born.

Equally lonely and with a big weight on his back. He had two sins now, that of having killed his own brother and of having taken his own life, at least, that's all we know.

The so fragile and defenseless Amane was suffocated into his chest. And he was trapped for so long that when he resurfaces, Hanako doesn't know how to act.

When does Amane return?

When a little mermaid decides to show him her charms.

Mermaid?

Who was the girl who called him the first time?

He likes to call her Yashiro. I think you know

The first person who saw him. He wasn't an evil apparition, nor a ghost, nor a strange, perverted boy, he was her friend. Isn't that what she said?

She was the only one who little by little helped Hanako to show a little of Amane, because even though now he is the great 7 of the 7 mysteries, the great powerful ghost… He is still Amane.

There is a big difference between them. Hanako is extremely charismatic, fun, likes to joke and make stupid jokes. He has good intentions and protects those he loves. And above all, he is not a coward. Even if he made a mistake, he admits his mistake and regrets it.

But, it doesn't end up that way. He is also the person who killed his own brother, he is the person who has good intentions in some cases but solves problems in the wrong way, he uses people to achieve his own goal without thinking about what they will feel.

There is a dark side to him.

And he hates him.

This dark side that we gradually get to know, even if it hides it. And he does it so well it scares me.

People always find justifications for what he does.

He wanted to lock the girl he loves in a fake world without giving her the chance to choose, because he knew she wouldn't want to, and he decided on his own that she would live happily without him.

Good intention, bad execution.

Hanako's dark side became justifiable because people fell in love with him. Because of his dangerous charisma. Because of Amane's fragility, which sometimes reflects on Hanako.

Make no mistake, Hanako didn't stay social after he stopped being Amane Yugi, he likes Yashiro, she was the only person he had any real interest in.

Kou joined the group by force, if you remember how it all started.

Where are Hanako's other friends?

The other supernaturals either respect him or hate him. There is no middle ground.

Why don't Amane and Hanako like the idea of having friends? If there is this charisma if he has this personality that is so easily captivating, then why did he choose that?

To hide the secrets? Because he is afraid of doing something to his own friends and is afraid of losing them?

Because in the PP arc, where the ideal world of the "protagonists" was reflected, did he have friends? Did he want this?

What was stopping him?

Hanako has reflected the waning Moon in his own eyes, a well-lit and beautiful part that draws everyone's attention… And another dark part, that no one can see what it hides….

That sums it up well. The lonely prince of the Moon who wanted to be loved, but was afraid to love too much…. Why?

The boy who only had a short time to live, the one who wasn't going anywhere, the one who pushed his younger brother away just because he wanted to be healthy like him. The boy who cried at night while waiting for his brother to return, who perhaps asked the moon to bring him back. He was alone, but he didn't want to be.

So when Brother came back, he didn't feel like he was enough. Because of him Amane couldn't help but fear that one day he would leave again, because of him Amane endured things he didn't know he could, because of him Amane committed his greatest sin, or what affects him most, because of him the Amane didn't allow himself to love again.

He didn't deserve to love and be loved. That's what he thought. He didn't deserve to be alive, nor to go to the moon to fulfill his own dreams. He deserved to be alone and suffer for eternity, because nothing he does will take away the guilt.

But he got a new chance.

He is being loved again, or for the first time.

Even though he's running away, he wants this… He wants to be loved, to be forgiven, he wants to make things right.

All Hanako, or rather Amane, wants is to have a normal life, like everyone else. 🌟

the little mermaid (2023)

prince eric’s pov:

“we should allow you to get some sleep, and perhaps dried off as well.”

“oh, uh, yes! we took a boat out on the lagoon and i’m afraid we ended up in it!”

“anyway, goodnight.”

grimsby’s exquisite hosting etiquette saves me from my embarrassingly giggly manner. i’ve been like this all day, surprising myself as i have never been this way with anyone but myself, in my study. but today, as i rediscovered the beauty of the island with this very curious and very free-spirited young lady, i couldn’t help but enjoy the intimacy of sharing happiness and joy with her, as if it is what I am meant to do for the rest of my life

my eyes follow her small silhouette up the stairs and I am speechless, unable to say anything more to not embarrass myself further. i fail immensely as my cheeks heat up when she turns around catching me smiling, admiring how breathtaking she looks in my hat, how her beautiful long locks fall down her back. unable to hide my fondness for her , i stand still as she walks back down towards me and places my hat on my head. having nowhere else to hide, my eyes wonder else wear to not meet hers. my brain is only allowed to think of “goodnight. ariel” after inhaling her sweet salty scent once more.

as ariel walks up the stairs towards the guest bedchambers, my mind is reminded of the wonderful day i shared with her. In complete and utter bliss, here i stand, frozen as I stare at the girl that washed up from the sea just yesterday, desperately wishing i had built up the courage to have kissed her way before we fell into the lagoon

ariel.

my comfort and care-free spirit today with her leads me to believe i had to have met ariel before her arrival at the castle. i am reminded of the reaction my body had under her touch in the row boat, how familiar it was on my cheek. my mind has been a fog ever since, ariel consuming every thought racing in my mind. she is all i can think about now. after having had only spent a day with this beautiful stranger, I can not imagine what life was before her or what it could be after, without her. she has invaded me in every way possible and i can not seem to remember what occupied me before her.

i am snapped out of my heavenly thoughts by grimsby’s voice, expressing disappointment when stating they could not find the girl. What girl is he referring to?

Hello, congratulations on 900 followers❤️

Can I pls request for Fuegoleon x reader with fairy tale au? Omg omg imagine a little mermaid au!!! Where Fuegoleon is a prince and reader is an ethereally beautiful mermaid in love with him pls!✨❤️

Hiya anon! Thank you so much! So, the Little Mermaid movie AU is…pretty heavily saturated by a different ship so I decided to try and come up with something original as I didn’t want to accidentally get characterizations mixed up and such. Fue will still be a prince and reader a mermaid, but in an original setting. But I still hope you enjoy 🥰!

Taglist: @thoughtfullyrainynightmare

Word Count: 657

Warnings: None

————

“ Well, if it isn’t the prince again,” You called playfully as you watched him walk along the dock towards you. “ Finally decided to join me?”

Fuegoleon Vermillion, the Prince of Clover, chuckled and shook his head as he reached the end of the dock.

“ Not today I’m afraid,” He said as he sat down. “ I have a meeting I need to attend in about an hour.”

You pouted a bit, but nodded understandingly.

“ I understand, I have to attend meetings too sometimes,” You said softly, and that made him tilt his head a bit.

“ I didn’t think Merpeople had meetings.” He muttered in slight confusion, and you couldn’t help but giggle.

“ Well, we do,” You told him with a chuckle. “ After all; the only difference between us are legs and fins.”

Fuegoleon nodded slowly. The more you told him about the underwater kingdom and its people, the more he started to realize that there really was very little that was different between you.

“ Also that you can breathe and speak underwater, while we humans cannot.” He pointed out, and you blinked in surprise before nodding.

“ Fair point.”

You placed your arms on the wooden dock and hoisted yourself up and out of the water to sit beside him.

“ What’re you doing?” He asked in surprise as he moved over to give you some room, you turned towards him and tilted your head.

“ Since you can’t go swimming with me today, I thought I would come up here and join you.” You explained as though it were obvious.

“ Are you sure that’s wise? What if your gills dry out?” He asked, his voice full of concern as he turned to fully face you.

You shook your head.

“ They won’t,” You told him softly. “ And if they do then I can easily jump back into the water.”

You could see the clear concern on his face as he looked at you; and a gentle smile worked its way onto your face as you reached out and gently cupped his face, making him blink in surprise.

“ I’m glad that you worry about it; but I’ll be fine.”

He sighed as his eyes closed while leaning into your touch.

“ I know, I know,” He began softly as he slowly opened his eyes. “ It’s just…everytime I see you out of water I remember what happened that day and I…become anxious.”

You nodded slowly as you recalled the day that he found you wrapped up in a fisherman's net, barely clinging to life on the shore…

“ I know, and if our roles were reversed I would feel the same as you,” You told him as your thumb gently caressed his cheek. “ but I’m fine now, you got there in time to save me.”

“ But what if I hadn’t?”

“ But you did.”

Fuegoleon chuckled as he saw a stern yet fierce look in your eye that told him this was not up for debate any more. You were fine, alive, and safe. So while worrying about you was okay, he shouldn’t overdo it.

Eventually he sighed in defeat.

“ Alright, you win.” He told you, and you chuckled.

“ Don’t I always?” You asked teasingly before a leather bound book sitting beside him caught your eye. “ Is that a new book?”

“ It is,” Fuegoleon began as he reached out towards it. “ I saw it in the bookshop today and I thought you might like it.”

You tilted your head curiously.

“ Oh? And what is it about?” You asked and leaned over to look at the cover.

Fuegoleon chuckled.

“ It’s about a mermaid who fell in love with a human.” He told you softly, his purple eyes glancing over at you.

You smiled warmly.

“ Is that so?” You questioned with a hum. “ How will it end, I wonder?” You looked over at him, your gaze warm, affectionate, and playful.

The look in them was mirrored to perfection in Fuegoleon’s eyes.

“ There’s only one way to find out.”

————

Thank you all so much for reading and I hope you all have a good day~!

Mermaid Tears

You were crying and sniffling on the beach with your knees drawn up to your chest. Your chin was resting on your forearm. You felt the waves come and go, tickling your toes with each departure, and again with each arrival. The normally soothing sound of ocean waves did nothing to calm you today. You couldn't hear it over your sobbing. Blinking your eyes because of all the moisture, your view of the sea kept getting blurry.

"(Y/n)! There you are, I've been searching everywhere for you all morning!"

The prince suddenly startled you out of your thoughts. You turned your head slightly to glance at him but quickly looked away, not wanting him to see you crying your eyes out. When you said nothing, the prince stepped closer.

"(Y/n), are you okay?"

He asked cautiously, suddenly realizing that you were not okay. He took a few steps closer and sat down beside you in the sand. When you didn't move or look at him, he gently placed his hand on your upper arm secured around your legs.

"(Y/n), please tell me what's wrong," he whispered.

You turned your head further away from him at this, as you felt another wave of emotion splashing over you. You sniffled and tried to calm your voice before speaking.

"Eric, it's nothing. I'm just being a baby."

"Well then tell me what you're being a baby about, so I can cry too," he tried to joke.

When you didn't acknowledge that, his small smile dropped.

"(Y/n), please, I don't ever want you to feel like you can't tell me something."

His thumb started rubbing soothingly on your skin at his words.

This. This is why you couldn't handle it. Feeling all of your frustration and fear boil over, you turned your head to look at Eric. You didn't care how crazy or distraught you looked. You took in a sharp breath before you told him exactly what you were thinking.

"It-It's just that you just had your birthday. And now everyone's talking about how you're of age now and you'll start looking for a wife soon. They've talked about you courting women from other islands. And, I just don't know if I can stand by and watch that, Eric."

You paused briefly to gauge his reaction. His mouth was partially open and his bright blue eyes were glued to your face. He waited for you to continue.

"I don't think I can watch you bring these other women down here, to our beach, the beach we've laughed and played and stargazed on since we were young. And court them," you said that word with disgust.

"And stargaze with them. And kiss them. And whatever else might happen. I just- I can't handle that. Just the thought of it makes me sick."

You looked away from him, nervous to see his reaction.

He dropped his hand and waited a beat before he responded.

"Why's that, (Y/n)?"

Your eyes shot back to his. Why would he ask you that? He was studying your face closely, blue eyes skimming your features. You were still taken aback by his question.

"What do you mean?"

He cleared his throat before he answered.

"Well, I wanted to know if you mean what I think you mean. The reason that I've been looking for you all morning is because I was going to confess my feelings to you."

He paused and let you absorb the information he just shared. He saw the shock spread across your face.

"But what about your mother? I'm just a village girl. She'd never allow-"

At that, Eric cut you off.

"It's not my mother's decision, (Y/n). And besides, I already spoke to my mother this morning and told her that I had no intentions of courting princesses from other islands. I told her that my choice was already made."

You looked frantically between his eyes.

"Well, what did she say?!"

Eric's dimpled smile was back. God, you loved that smile. You wanted to look at it for the rest of your days.

"She said that she wasn't surprised. She knew where my heart was. Where it has been for quite some time now. You know I wasn't born into all this, (Y/n). If I can have this without royal blood, there's no reason that you can't have it too."

He seemed so sure of his last sentence. It made your eyes well up with tears again.

"Eric, what're you saying?"

You asked in between sniffles and sobs as you cupped your hand over your mouth. You watched Eric lick his lips before he spoke.

"I'm saying- well, I'm asking, if you want to marry me, (Y/n)? And make me the happiest man on earth," he said as he shifted his legs from underneath him and got on one knee.

He reached for your hand, which you gladly let him have.

"You must know. Surely you must know, it's always been you (Y/n). My mother has a beautiful ring that she's going to give us. And we can stay here. On our beach. Living out our happy days when we're not voyaging."

You were completely caught off guard. You sobbed a couple more times as Eric waited patiently for your reply and softly rubbed his thumb over your knuckles. You finally mustered up the strength to remove your hand from your mouth and try to steady your voice.

"Yes, Eric. Of course I will."

You smiled as more tears streamed down your cheeks. Eric's face lit up with your answer and he quickly moved closer to pull you into a hug. As you pulled away from each other, he placed his right hand on your cheek. Staring into your eyes, you both felt each other's overwhelming happiness in the moment; it was palpable. Rubbing his thumb across your bottom lip, his crystal blue eyes shifted down to your mouth and popped back up to your eyes for permission.

"Kiss me, Eric. Please."

He gently brushed your lips with his own, testing the waters at first, before he urgently molded his mouth to yours.

Author: Mod Mouse

Note: Heres my first fanfiction in awhile and the first work on Crow and Mouse Writing Co. I hope you all enjoy 😋

Summer has always been your favorite season. It was a welcomed relief after the dark and cold winters of your hometown. And now that you lived in Dorne, the kingdom rarely left the summer season. Although on days like today you wished for cooler temperatures. The heat had become unbearable making the castle too muggy for your afternoon reading sessions. That’s when you decided that a dip in the pool would solve all of your heat related problems which was where you found yourself now.

You dipped your toes into the cool pool with a sigh. The perfect weather was amazing but when the sun beat down a little too long then you started to wish for the cooler summers of your hometown. You let your face lean back on your hands taking in the rays of the sun. Lazy days like this were few and far between since you became the prince of Dorne. Of course Oberyn was more than happy to help you relax, but nothing felt better than cool water on a hot day. Even if something was bothering you, Oberyn would be there to give you some quick loving. And honestly you couldn’t be more happy about it.

After sunning yourself for a couple more minutes, you stood up and finally let the see through robe fall onto the stones behind you. You slowly slipped into the pool, sighing as the cool water took away the summer heat. The water doing nothing to cover your nudity although you didn’t really mind. If it wasn’t for Oberyn showing you that it was okay to show off your body, you would have been stuck in the historic ways of your hometown. You let yourself lazily glide through the water before deciding that floating on your back sounded like the best idea. You stayed on your back for a moment staring up at the beautiful sky. The clouds slowly drifted across your vision creating and disappearing in a moment's notice. Taking a couple of deep breaths, you held one and sank under the surface.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Meanwhile Oberyn had just left a meeting he wasn’t entirely thrilled about being called to. Doran needed him to witness some important trade agreements, but Oberyn didn’t think that way. Meetings meant time away from his partners and that was something he wasn’t too keen on. Now that he was free from his responsibility he began his search for you. Oberyn started with the normal spots– the bedroom, library and the garden– but no sign of you. He was ready to go upstairs when he spotted you swimming in the pool. His hungry eyes took in your moving body watching as your muscles moved. His eyes glinted with a spark of mischievousness and he hurried to join you by the pool. After the day he had had, he was ready to have his hands on you.

You hadn’t noticed that he had approached the pool until you heard him say, “Well I didn’t know we had mermaids in our pool,” Oberyn chuckled as he squatted at the edge of the pool. Turning towards the voice, you opened your eyes and smiled at the sight of your husband.

“A pool is no place for a mermaid. We must swim free in the salty waves of the ocean,” you playfully replied before swimming over to him.

Oberyn smirked in return, “I think the best place for a mermaid is in my bed.”

“Wouldn’t that make your bed too wet?” You teased titling your head to the side.

“Oh I think my bed gets wet enough with you and Ellaria in it.” Oberyn teased flirtatiously knowing what the two of you were like during last night's activities.

You couldn’t help but blush at his words. Damn he always knew how to make you shiver. How with just a few words he could make you weak in knees and ready to do whatever he asked. Oberyn had that power over you, and so did Ellaria, but even Ellaria wasn’t immune to Oberyn’s antics.

“I don’t doubt your abilities but why wait when you can take your mermaid in their own domain.” You replied with an edge of invitation to it. Nothing would please more than for your husband to take you where anyone could walk in and see you.

Oberyn raised his eyebrows as if he was about to question you, but quickly he smiled at the idea. Oberyn’s golden robes were quickly discarded, and your eyes couldn’t help but roam his fit body. All the scars from his past battles were on display for your eyes, and all you wanted to do was to kiss every single one of them. He sat down on the edge and quickly slipped in beside you. Wasting no time putting his hands on you to pull you in for a long kiss. You smiled and kissed him, letting your hands rest on his chest

You broke the kiss and spoke just loud enough for him to hear you, “Someone missed me,” You teased.

“I always miss you when you aren’t in my arms,” Oberyn purred and nuzzled his face into your neck. “Maybe I should ask the Maesters if there’s a way to keep you attached to me.”

You chuckled and kissed his cheek before dragging your lips up his cheek, stopping just before his ear. A smirk found its way across your face, opening your mouth, just slightly you dragged your teeth across his ear lobe and whispered, “Well I can think of one way that you can stay attached to me.”

Oberyn let out a soft moan and pushed you up against the pool wall, kissing you with the heat of the sun itself. What a wonderful summer this was going to be.

The Little Mermaid! Azul Ashengrotto x Yuu (Part 3/3)

Prompt: The story follows a plotline similar to The Little Mermaid. Down in the depths of the Kingdom of Atlantica, Yuu is known as the treasured daughter of the Sea King. Azul has disguised himself as Vance (Like Vanessa in the movie) in order to strike a deal with Prince Elias (Prince Eric) on a traveling ship as a human and Yuu is captivated. When the ship gets caught in a terrible storm, Yuu saves Azul and he’s unable to get her singing voice out of his head but doesn’t know who it is. When Yuu comes to Azul for a contract for her to become a human, he doesn’t realize that she was the one who saved him until after she obtains her legs. Now it’s up to Azul to come up with a plan to stop a romance caused by a misunderstanding.

Author’s Note: This story has a total of around 18k words, so I thought it would be easier to read if I broke it up into three parts.

Part 1: Here!

Part 2: Here!

Part 3: You’re reading it! :)

Grim had begun to pounce on top of Yuu to wake the girl up. Today was the third day, and she was excited to meet the love of her life.

“Come on, Yuu! I’m sure he’s waiting out there on the shore for you. We’ve got no time to waste!” the cat purred with excitement. Not even changing out of her pajamas, she looked into her mirror briefly to adjust her hair, and then took off with Grim in her arms. She wonders what he has been meaning to tell her. Oh, when the three days end, she’ll be able to get her voice back and tell him what she’s been hiding from him too!

Yuu made her way to the castle’s main hall and saw the same large crowd of nobles from yesterday and Prince Elias, waiting with a small box in his hand. The man had knelt down on one knee, looking at Yuu’s confused expression but proceeding anyway.

“It hasn’t been long since I’ve met you, but I sincerely ask you to listen to my word and give me a chance. You’ve changed me as a man and I no longer want to play around with anyone other than you. Will you marry me?” Prince Elias boldly proclaimed, using the social pressure on Yuu to his advantage. The girl was astounded, appalled even.

Huh?? What in Atlantica is he talking about?

“Yikes! Why in the world would he ask that when he knows that you’ve got your eyes on Vance?” Grim scowled as he lay in Yuu’s arms.

Her silence is what made every noble in the room whisper amongst themselves.

She took a step back, making Prince Elias take another step forward.

No! She doesn’t want to be with him!

The Prince leaned over to whisper in her ear, “I know your little secret, so if you don’t cooperate then I’ll…” smirking at Yuu’s mortified expression, he knew that he won.

Azul waited on the beach with a bouquet of flowers in hand in the form of Vance. He had hoped that Yuu liked the small gift that he gave to her in his coat. The nautilus shell. The hint that would let Yuu put the pieces of the whole story together. The sun was almost down and time was beginning to tick, just like he had originally planned when he simply wanted to trick Yuu for his revenge. He obviously didn’t believe in that now and was just waiting for her to come to see him.

“Maybe she’s not returning because she found out that you were her contractor.” Jade guessed while waiting around.

“Nah! Didn’t ya see the way she was making googly eyes at him yesterday? There’s no way Koebi-chan would change up that fast.” Floyd made kissy faces at Azul, snickering when he showed a face of displeasure.

“Isn’t it so obvious how infatuated I am? I must be pathetic for thinking I had a chance.” Azul felt blue. He had his hopes so high in the morning, waiting the entire time, thinking of what he would say, and imagining how Yuu would react. As the hours went by, the bouquet of flowers he held was beginning to wilt. It had even come to the point where he was so insecure that he was playing the, “she loves me not” game with one of the petals of the flowers.

He squatted with his head facing down to the ground, “Of course, she wouldn’t show up. I don’t know why I’ve fooled myself to believe this could work out.” Azul laughed pitifully at himself. Before all hope was lost, the trio could see a fluffy gray cat running towards them. Grim recognized Azul’s human form of Vance and appeared alarmed.

“Hey! I don’t know if you can hear me or not but Yuu is in trouble! That rascal of a prince is forcing Yuu to marry him and their wedding cruise already departed from the docks!” Grim cried out, hoping that maybe this human could understand what he was saying. Azul heard everything loud and clear, and so did the twins, nodding as they looked off into the distance where the ship was sailing west.

“Floyd! Jade! Transform into your merforms and take me to Yuu!” Azul ordered, replacing his doubt with a stronger fortitude. Grim yelped from hearing what he just said.

“Wait a second… Merforms? Floyd and Jade? Y-YOU’RE THE SEA SORCERER ALL ALONG?!” Grim was shocked as Floyd picked up the cat by the scruff of his neck.

“Bingo, Azarashi-chan~!” The animated twin showed a toothy grin. Jade sighed, smirking as he adjusted his gloves. “It’s about time you realized it. Now I wonder how the princess will react.” Jade was amused, set, and ready to take the next step.

“You’ve got to do us a favor since you’re in my debt for granting you those four paws of yours. I need you to quickly swim to the Sea King and tell him that Yuu is in danger.” the Sea Sorcerer had warned, making Grim gulp nervously.

“How am I going to do that? I’m still a cat, y’know?” Grim made obviously.

“Your potion seems to be running out by now,” Jade commented, pointing at how the magic spell on his hind legs was beginning to rewind. Floyd smirked, taking one last look at Grim’s face as he brought the sea puppy to his eyes.

“You hear that, guppy? You better be quick with it, ahaha!” Floyd smiled devilishly, making Grim’s face drop and scared about what was going to happen. The playful twin then got into aiming position, holding onto Grim like he was about to throw a football.

“WAIT–! NO! AAHHHHH!!” Grim exclaimed with dread as it was too late. Floyd had launched Grim into the air and far off into the distance, making a huge splash into the water. Azul felt apprehensive. This uneasiness pooling in his stomach wasn’t enough to stop him from rushing into the water, knee-deep already.

No, no, no! She can’t possibly marry that insufferable imbecile. The sun was beginning to set and this was now a race against time! He needs to end this marriage and come clean with the truth before then.

Some say that a bride on her wedding day is supposed to be the happiest, but Yuu’s gloominess far surpasses any hint of joy. Prince Elias kept the nautilus shell that was in his hands in safekeeping. He doesn’t know when it would come in handy, but if Yuu had tried to object at the wedding lectern, he’d use the shell to fabricate Yuu’s voice to say, “I do.”

Prince Elias threatened the life of her love if she didn’t agree to this marriage. As someone who is next in line for the throne, it’s inevitable that he would gain the power and ability to get rid of anyone, even someone as influential as Vance. Although, he did promise that she would gain the ability to be able to freely roam the human world.

Of course, this was a blatant lie. Even Yuu knew that, but what other options does she have left? The wedding was being forced upon her by a man that’s not her true love, and Yuu couldn’t stop thinking about him.

Prince Elias took Yuu’s arm and held her next to his side. Just how it should’ve been from the beginning. The sounds of organs were already harmonizing as they both slowly walked down the aisle. Yuu had to inhale and exhale to remind herself that she was doing it for him.

Feeling the unfamiliar gazes of strangers on her was uncomfortable, but not as uncomfortable as the man who was taking charge of this entire situation. There was no one she knew here, not even Grim. A wedding ceremony was supposed to be a promise between both people, even the merfolk under the sea knew that. Though, there’ll be vows that will be made for completely wrong reasons.

Her heart wanted to weep.

She was still trapped like a fish in a bowl, unable to do anything but remain within a boundary declared by someone else, not able to attain what she desired after all. The wedding bells were ringing, but most definitely not for her.

“Do you, Elias, take this maiden to be your lovely wedded wife, for as long as you both shall live?” the priest inquired. Yuu took a look at the sun which had almost touched the horizons of the sea, gloomy of what is to come.

“I do.” He said proudly. Prince Elias slowly pulled out the nautilus shell from his pocket. It was any second now that it would be time for him to use this piece of blackmail to solidify his position as the prince in the kingdom, having Yuu’s voice to declare her utmost truthful confession of love at last.

This is not what she wanted at all.

Even after she rebelled against her father…

Even after she signed a contract with the Sea Sorcerer…

Even after she finally became human…

Even after she had fallen in love…

Yuu stared at the ground as her vision became blurry.

Huh?

Tears finally fell from her eyes.

Was this her punishment for falling in love?

This was it, she was going to suffer a fate worse than death.

The nautilus shell with her voice glowed even brighter as it spoke in her voice, “I–”

“I’ve got to hand it to you, you know exactly how to test my patience.” A voice erupted from behind.

Yuu’s head lifted and was directed to the voice. Everyone’s heads had turned towards a man who was interrupting the ceremony. There he stood, heaving with bated breaths from rushing to the wedding. With Jade and Floyd in their true forms, he was just barely able to make it in time.

“Well look at who decided to show up! A villain who juggles more than one mask and deceives others for his own benefit! How shameless can you possibly be, Vance?!” Prince Elias barked. Yuu didn’t hesitate to rush to Azul’s side until the groom forcefully grabbed the bride’s wrist, the girl wincing at the strong pressure. Azul kept walking down the aisle, almost livid that he dared to even think of laying a hand on her. Keeping his composure as much as he could, he decided that he was going to handle this with words and stay as civil as possible. There are witnesses, after all.

“That’s not at all how you should treat a lady. Any man who resorts to violence has already admitted that he has lost.” He approached Yuu as close as he could, hardly minding the gasps and the stares from the nobles around him.

“You’re not denying any of my accusations. You can’t possibly show up to my wedding and then try to take my bride away!”

“Your bride? Your bride?” Azul comes to a halt, his next few words growing bitter and resentful.

“As far as I know, she hasn’t been able to say a single word. For someone who wouldn’t take no for an answer, you’d most definitely take no answer as any answer.” Prince Elias took a step back with Yuu in his hold, his grip becoming tighter. How dare he lay a hand on Yuu?

“Have you ever thought to consider how she felt about any of this? You call her your bride, yet you don’t know a single thing about her. She’s a lustrous gem, yet you lust over her and only wish to attain her for the very wrong reasons. Forcing her to marry you to raise your reputation and clear your name? Please, who’s the real villain here?” Azul laughed, keeping himself as composed as he can be.

“Well, then what about you? How will you value your integrity when you’ve kept this away from her?!” Prince Elias revealed the glowing nautilus shell in his fist. Yuu’s eyes widened, hearing lingering echoes of her own voice radiating from it.

“This is why he’s here! Don’t let him deceive you! Look at him and watch, you’ll see.” The shadows of Azul’s fears began to invade his conscience. He wanted to speak but his throat had begun to tighten.

“Azul Ashengrotto. The man who you believed to be Vance actually turned out to be an octopus! He’s not even a mermaid, either! This entire time he’s only been getting closer to you to use you and make sure he uses you as a bargaining chip against your own father.” He had one final look at the shell and proceeded to toss it to Azul, who barely even caught it.

“Here, keep it. It’s like we’ve made a trade. You keep that little voice of hers and I take her all for myself! Hahaha!” the prince mocked, causing Azul to have deja vu from when he was bullied as a child. Yuu took this opportunity of the prince getting ahead of himself to stomp her heel straight through her perpetrator’s foot. He yelled in pain from her resistance and was offended. All of a sudden, he grabbed a harpoon from the side of the ship and pressed it up against Yuu’s neck.

“How… How dare you?!” Azul bitterly spat, his hands clenched and teeth gritting.

“Yes! Make that face for me, Azul! Show her that you only look at her like merchandise and that you’ve only ever cared about what you could gain. You did lie to her, that much is true.” The prince skewed everything that was said, but… he wasn’t wrong.

“I was going to tell her everything until you acted like a white knight in shining armor, thinking selfishly and brashly. This nautilus shell was supposed to be Yuu’s honest gift from me but you took it from her. Now I finally have the chance to give it back!” Azul traced his thumb over the curves of the shell one last time, kissing it like a token of good luck and raising it in the air before shattering it against the ground. The golden whirl of light that was previously contained had swirled in a flowy current, trailing back to its original owner, Yuu’s singing coming back to her control. The princess beamed when receiving what once was hers.

The Sea Sorcerer didn’t regret what he did. Not for a second. Seeing Yuu finally smile in the midst of this chaos was enough for him to keep pushing forward. With the same voice he yearned for in the beginning, he decided it’d be best for her to keep it, for she was much happier that way.

“Vance–Azul, I don’t care who you are– please don’t doubt the time we spent together!” Yuu’s mouth was covered by Prince Elias hand. The perpetrator peered at the sun and saw that it almost concealed itself by dipping into the ocean. Kissing her would keep her human forever, Prince Elias thought, pulling Yuu’s face closer to his. Sick and tired of being silenced, Yuu had bit down hard on Prince Elias’ finger, earning a painful howl from the man. Quickly shoving herself away from the groom, Yuu and Azul both rushed to each other.

The Sea Sorcerer entangled his fingers in the princess’ hair, pulling her in for a long-awaited embrace, mixtures of relief washing over him when finally feeling her in his arms.

“It’s been you all the time.” Yuu uttered, but not in betrayal or repulsion. Melting in his grasp, she could feel Azul stroke her back tenderly with trembling hands. He had been so afraid of losing her. Sevens, if he were a second off, he would never be able to forgive himself.

“Yuu, I… I wanted to tell you–” Azul whispered ever so softly while gazing into Yuu’s eyes, lulling his eyelids to prepare to sink his lips with hers until saw in the corner of his eye, Prince Elias charging at the both of them with his harpoon. Instantly, Azul pushed Yuu away from him as the prince rammed the foreign object into his chest. The groom chuckled in his victory, only to realize a second later that his harpoon wasn’t piercing through his skin. The sun had finally set and there was an intense amount of light that had emitted from Azul’s coat. The contract between him and Yuu had finally been sealed, done and over.

Prince Elias gasped in disbelief and staggered backward. The harpoon clattered against the floorboards. Azul withdrew the golden contract and it reflected its shimmering hue back to his face, a laugh erupting from his chest.

“You’re too late, Prince Elias!” he clenched the scroll in his hands and for a second felt power-hungry. Transforming into his original octopus-merform, he had sprouted his tentacles and the sky was painted darkly from his influence. Seeing the color in Prince Elias disappear was much too satisfying. Seeing him apprehensive and afraid gave Azul a bit of his confidence back, perhaps even becoming egotistical. He could only imagine the look on other merfolk’s faces once he got to them. Finally, he’d be able to get a taste of revenge…

A taste of…

...

In his peripheral vision, he saw Yuu sprawled on the ground, her former tail returning to her. Lacking energy, she peered back at Azul with hopeful eyes. The look on her face was one that had wanted to trust him. She had her faith in Azul to do the right thing, witnessing him almost losing himself and getting carried away. The Sea Sorcerer had stopped briefly.

What was the point of all of this?

He had dreamed of this very day happening ever since he was young, but it all didn’t seem to matter to him as much as he thought it would. If he kept the contract, wouldn’t it mean that everything Prince Elias had said would be true?

He wanted Yuu to trust him. Only he could nullify the terms and agreements. Only he was capable of ending it all. That way, Yuu wouldn’t be obliged to belong to him, at least not in this cruel and demanding way. As proof of his conviction, Azul ripped the scroll in half with his own hands, feeling shocks of lightning tearing through his body as he defied the natural law of its indestructible nature. He looked down at the scrap piece of paper as it lost its glow, finally crumbling it into a ball and tossing it into the ocean. He didn’t need a contract to be with Yuu. All he needed was to be by her side.

Humiliated, pathetically desperate, and vengeful! These feelings were swelling in the prince’s chest. Why weren’t things going his way?!

It was because it was the first time he’s ever been said no to. He’d gained everything he ever desired, yet that wasn’t enough to satiate his appetite. He could only dote and swoon and fawn on this lady who was withdrawn. It seems that she who held her tongue would get her man. He felt inferior to Azul. He had everything but he couldn’t have her!

“If I can’t have her, then no one can!”

Prince Elias scurried to his weapon in a last-minute attempt to do damage. He directed the long spear-like instrument toward Yuu.

“Say goodbye to your precious little mermaid!” Prince Elias bellowed, pulling the trigger on the harpoon.

Yuu couldn’t run. She can’t possibly dodge this without her legs. Time seemed to slow down for her. This really was it, huh? She shut her eyes and accepted what was about to come.

…

But it never came.

Yuu opened her eyes and gasped, covering her mouth in disbelief. Azul shielded her body, weakly towering over her figure with a harpoon puncturing and piercing through his abdomen. The octopus’ breathing hitched, doing his best to stay calm and composed in hopes to reassure Yuu of this major wound.

“Azul!” Yuu cried out, her hands pressed against his chest. Crimson had splattered from Azul’s lips yet he couldn’t waste another second thinking about his own pain. He picked Yuu up carefully with his tentacles and rushed over to the edge of the boat to keep her from harm’s way.

Prince Elias hollered as he rammed against Azul’s body, attempting to pull out the harpoon so that he could further bleed out, only to be latched by the ankle with a tentacle and plunged into the waters with both of them. Submerging into the sea, Azul’s grip loosened on Yuu and Prince Elias, losing his strength.

Jade and Floyd both eyed how the prince was fighting for air and both cackled mischievously.

“N-No! Get me out of here!” Prince Elias desperately tried to keep his head above the surface of the water before he was dragged further into the abyss.

“This is revenge for our boss.” Jade yanked the human towards him with his tail.

“Aha ha! Let’s get ‘em, Jade!” Floyd wrapped his tail around Elias’ body and squeezed.

“He’s just like bubble wrap.”

“Oopsies! Did I overdo it?”

“No, look. He’s still kicking.”

“Okaaaay! Why don’t we do this last one together?”

“Shock the heart.”

“Bind the heart!”

As Prince Elias met his deserved demise, Azul weakly laid back on the cold ocean floor. Yuu’s eyes had welled up in tears, desperately pushing her hands against the big gaping wound that only continued to overflow with blood.

“No, this can’t be happening! W-Why did you do that, Azul?” Yuu cried, looking at his true form. His hair, a wavy silver tone, his eyes, a dull gray color, and his beauty mark that was placed perfectly on the side of his lip. His handsome face paled, wincing but brought the backside of his hand to graze against her cheek.

“I had to do it. I can’t– I can’t let anything happen to you. I had to–” Azul stammered, incapable of imagining how he’d imagine a world without Yuu. It was a split-second decision and he couldn’t bare the guilt if he didn’t do something.

“Shh… It’s going to be okay, I’ve got you. E-Everything will be okay.” The little mermaid buried her head into the Sea Sorcerer’s chest. Things were not going to be okay. Azul’s timeframe was only shortening by the minute and there was nothing that she could do!

“I-I’m sorry, Yuu. Truly, I am. How embarrassing it is that you have to see me like this… I’m nothing but a silly, lonely little octopus,” Azul tried to make fun of himself, only to cough out an alarming amount of blood.

“I don’t care about any of that!” Yuu held his face between her hands.

“Would an evil Sea Sorcerer really prepare the best things in town for my arrival? Would a selfish man really go through the trouble to teach a naive girl how to walk? Would he smile at me so tenderly after I pull down his hat and completely splash him with water, or hold me as if he’d never get the chance to hold me again after he let go?” Yuu shouted, causing Azul’s eyes to widen in astoundment.

“But… Don’t you feel betrayed when you found out that Vance was never real?”

“I already knew you were Azul Ashengrotto!” the mermaid confessed, causing the octopus to be dumbfounded.

“What…? How could that be?”

“I don’t know anybody else who would call me Angelfish after falling into a lake. Not only that, but your two henchmen stick out like a sore thumb, silly.” The girl sniffed when trying to lighten the mood, rubbing her thumb across Azul’s cheek. He bit his lip, feeling a bit sheepish. I suppose he couldn’t foolproof everything.

“Vance, Azul Ashengrotto, I could see right through you whether you’re an octopus or a human. I don’t believe so strongly in rumors and I believe that you’re capable of having a change of heart. Even then, I knew that the only one I could love is you! It will always be you, no matter what.” Yuu pressed her forehead against his own affectionately.

Ah.

Ahh…

Azul felt his lip quiver, a lump becoming stuck in his throat and his tears became too much to contain. All his life, he wanted someone who can truly accept him for who he was. How was it that she was able to achieve all of this? He’s been able to see a more vibrant world with her by her side, and he thought he had been the one to introduce her to the unknown of the world. He felt too blessed. He really was.

“Above all, you have the most beautiful soul, Angelfish.” The octopus momentarily forgot his injury, twinging at the subtle movements he made to hold Yuu closer to him. His breathing came to a slow pace as he wishfully looked into her eyes.

“Could you… s-sing for me one last time? I couldn’t get enough of your voice the day you left.” He weaved his fingers within her hair as Yuu fought to not cry completely. She sniffed, seeing that this was his final wish. He looked far, far, too pale at this point, but he put every last drop of his strength into enduring the urge to slumber eternally.

“I don’t know when, I don’t know how

But I know something’s starting right now…

Watch and you’ll see, someday I’ll be…

Part of your world.”

She leaned in, very carefully. Her beating heart pressed against his that had slowed to a calm. She could no longer feel the tears that brimmed her eyes, or the bitterly cold atmosphere of the ocean because all she could feel was Azul, everywhere, filling everything she had ever thought and believed in… for a kiss.

A kiss of true love.

The silence was loud. Yuu had shut her eyes and gradually strayed from his lips, sinking her head into the crook of his neck.

“I love you.”

Yuu broke into a sob, gripping Azul’s limp and unresponsive hand, only stopping to realize that the hand she clasped onto had squeezed back. She opened her eyes, seeing that there was light emitting from the hole that was gaping through Azul’s abdomen. It was as if the clocks reversed in the Sea Sorcerer’s body, the fates’ design changing… The reformation of skin and bone had melted and stitched itself back together like magic, completely vanishing. Azul’s life-threatening injury was no longer present.

Yuu was bewildered at what had just happened. How was this possible? What could this mean? As if she had gone through this very same scenario as before, the mermaid pushed her head next to Azul’s chest, hearing his heartbeat’s rhythmic pace matching her very own.

“I surrendered my heart, yet you give me so much life, darling,” Yuu felt her hand further entwine with the man that lay beneath her. She looked up, smiling from ear to ear, causing Azul to be awestruck, and welcomed her warmth in his arms once more. Words could not describe how fortunate Yuu felt. All of the time that they spent together flashed in her memory once more, her relief washing over her and granting her peace.

“Azul!” Yuu exclaimed, regaining all of her hope. She embraced him tightly as if she would never get the chance to hold him again. Azul was given the strength that he needed, along with the resolve to solidify what he wanted to do. It’s never been clearer than before. Everything he did, he wanted to do it all for her. He would never let go of her again. There was no more Prince Elias, contract, or guilt in his way. Every opportunity was now his.

“Finally, I get to do this.” The Sea Sorcerer gently brought Yuu’s face near his own. Before they’ve made contact, he pauses for a moment more.

“May I?” Azul shyly asked for permission, not wanting to be rude or force the girl after the wedding fiasco incident. This caused Yuu to laugh at his polite gesture.

“Of course!” she answered, feeling the weight of Azul’s lips finally placed on hers, the both of them deeply intertwined with each other. His soul could only be at rest with hers.

“I’ve finished calculating our sales figures for today. Now, do we have a deal, Sea King?” Azul questioned, peering into the eyes of the King of Atlantica, determined for the man to let him win this negotiation.

“I consider myself a reasonable merman. I’ll let you know that I’ve set certain rules and I expect those rules to be obeyed, Azul…” The almighty and powerful monarch had set his trident to strike against the ground. Grim yelped and quickly swam behind his towering figure. Sitting down on his throne, he rested the trident that he held and looked back at the Sea Sorcerer.

“Oh… Then I guess there’s just one problem left.” The Sea King sighed.

Grim gulped, peeking his head from the side, “and what’s that, your Majesty?”

“How much I’m going to miss her.” The Sea King had ushered Azul to come forward, which the octopus had cautiously done. The king had held out his hand for a handshake, which Azul took, only to be pulled in for a strong hug by Yuu’s father.

“Thank you, sir. I’ll always ensure your daughter’s happiness.” Azul was able to relax, no longer stressed about having to get the Sea King’s blessing. He had come up with all sorts of possible scenarios of conversation in his head for this very moment, meticulously crafting specific phrases for convincing the king. Fortunately for him, it wasn’t too difficult to do, of course with the little mermaid showing her adoration for the Sea Sorcerer after everything that happened.

“Azull~! Where are you?” Yuu’s voice echoed in the halls of the castle.

Azul withdrew from the embrace, coughing nervously in his fist before bowing to him before he made his leave. He swam as quickly as he could with his eight tentacles to the little mermaid who was calling for him.

“Angelfish! I’m here. There’s a place where I’ve been meaning to take you, my newly opened restaurant called the Mostro Lounge.” Azul swam to Yuu and greeted the princess with a kiss on her hand. She beamed at the gesture and he could only look forward to the future with her. Behind his back, he held a box that was decorated with the seashell she had gifted Azul. Inside was a beautiful engagement ring to promise their futures together.

Villains too, also deserve their happily ever after.

Epilogue: It had turned out that Yuu’s signature spell, “Part of Your World” had healing properties whenever she sang! Grim was too much of a slow swimmer to get the Sea King to break up the wedding in time (definitely not because I wanted the finale to mostly focus on Yuu and Azul). Floyd and Jade were just playing with Prince Elias a bit and the humans heard about how he forced a mute girl to try to marry him. Yuu and Azul had to do a lot of explaining to the Sea King about the situation and slowly over time, the Sea King came to accept Azul to court his daughter. Grim at first was against the two of them getting together but after Azul offered the lifetime supply of canned tuna, he was more than happy for him to be welcomed into the family. Instead of having clients fall into debt forever, Azul decided to open up the Mostro Lounge which was available for both the human world and the merpeople world. The Sea Sorcerer was able to improve his reputation in Atlantica bit by bit, receiving some criticism from those who still had hard feelings against him, but Yuu was able to help him realize that he shouldn’t hold onto those grudges.

Author’s Note: I had a lot of fun writing this! It came out to be longer than I thought, so I thought it would be best to split the story up into three parts so that it’s easier for some people to read. I absolutely adore watching The Little Mermaid and I always wanted to read what would happen if Azul and Yuu were to follow the general plot of the movie. I wish for as many people to read this because I do think there will be someone out there who may really like this story for our favorite Azul Ashengrotto. I hope everyone has a happy new year! :))

Donnie x fem! Reader The little merturtle 5 FINAL

Summary: Prince Donatello was the third of four brothers, the prince of an underwater yokai city, but he has always been searching for something else far more interesting than the mystic arts he is used to, he wants to know everything about the human world, their traditions, their creations... But when he finds himself entranced by a human princess it might just be the last push he needs to make his dream of exploring the land a reality.

"Donnie’s chest physically hurt and his hand was grabbing onto his shirt tightly, he felt like clawing at his chest for the pain to stop."

Warnings: Angst with a happy ending, tooth-rotting fluff

PREV • MASTERLIST

Shipwrecked wedding

“Good work” Draxum said in a low voice from down under the sea, while he and Big Mama looked at how things were turning out from Huginn and Muninn’s perspective.

“Oh, that boy is much better than I thought” Big Mama groaned before stopping to ponder “Though maybe he wouldn’t have gotten that far if that slimy one of his brothers hadn’t managed to turn them all so they could follow him, then again in the end it’s better that they did.”

“It was a little too close for us to keep laying about like this” Draxum grunted “The purple one is crafty, at this rate he’ll be getting what he needs before the time is due”

“Well, it is time Big Mama took matters into her own tentacles” At this, her form changed from her unassuming mermaid appearance to that of a gigantic half-spider, half-cecaelia yokai, the creatures at the entrance of the cave seemed to wither away, but Draxum remained stoic while she hummed and reached for a necklace on her chest, the very same that now held the powers of the turtles and Donnie’s voice.

“With the purpley one belonging to us the others will have no choice but to follow for their dear brother and Lou will fall alongside them, I’ll make him writhe” The sinister smirk on Big Mama’s face grew “And I know just the yokai for this job…”

You were looking far away into the horizon from the terrace of your room, thinking deeply about what had happened today.

You knew there was more to the relationship you had developed with Donnie in a month than the instant of strong infatuation you experienced with your savior; words Casey had said after one of your outings with Donnie, when she’d caught sight of the grin that hadn’t left your cheeks all day, reverberated in your mind.

“Far better than any dream man is one of flesh and blood” She’d said in a strangely wisdom-filled voice you rarely heard her use, it left rapidly though “He’s exhausting and picky though, I don’t know why you enjoy spending time with him so much” She huffed before leaving the room.

You chuckled slightly at that, remembering how in denial you had been about your growing feelings for the caramel-skinned man, that wasn’t fair to him of course, not when you thought back on your interactions and realized, his feelings for you were so evident they were almost tangible.

Donnie went out of his way to tease or laugh at your misfortunes, but the easy manner in which he did was playful and you could hold no grudge like you didn’t do the same to him; plus the soft smile on his face whenever he thought you weren’t looking when you know he barely did any more than grimace at everyone else or deadpan when he thought something was dumb made it hard for you to ignore how you knew he felt around you.

You looked up from your spot out there at the terrace and towards the balcony window of the tower that you had made his residence, his room for as long as he’d want it to be so; and there he was, you caught a glimpse of him, still learning how to do his voluminous hair all by himself, an arduous task but one he seemed to feel very accomplished about.

It made you smile, why were you wasting your time thinking about a man you might never see again when Donnie was right there?

So, you had to let go of that fairytale, once and for all.

Your face turned back to the sea for a moment before you turned around in the direction of Donnie’s room, determined to talk to him about it all, feeling you had made him wait long enough.

The moment you started walking away though, you heard a deep humming in the distance that sent shivers down your spine, your eyes widened immediately and your breath hitched under the recognition of the voice.

You hadn’t been able to get that voice out of your head yet.

Your mind scrambled and you hurried back to where you had been looking over the sea, leaning down as far as you could to find the sight you had been yearning for since the shipwreck.

Walking down the beach and in your direction was a figure dressed in purple, if you hadn’t just seen Donnie a moment ago at his window you would have believed from what you could make out of that silhouette that it was him.

You squinted your eyes, trying to make out the appearance of the person you were looking at, even though you could tell immediately from the voice that it was precisely the person you had been waiting for before today.

You managed to make out a small light on their chest, it seemed to grow stronger the louder the voice of this person became and through the fog you blinked as you seemed to have imagined that the light traveled through the fog and towards you.

You opened your eyes again, but your thoughts seemed to be dispersed, you could only think about the beautiful voice of the man who’d saved you.

Donnie woke up that morning unlike any other morning, he wasn’t grumbling and trying to hide himself further into the blankets, nor was he sleepily trying to prepare himself mentally before getting out of his cocoon, or pushing Leonardo’s insistent feet out of his face, no.

The sun streamed from the windows; the curtains wide open from his forgetting to close them the night before and Donnie awoke slowly with a smile on his face, he rubbed his eyes with a yawn before raising slowly, stretching his arms with a dumb grin still adorning his features.

Trying to avoid hitting Leo on the pillow beside him he got up from the bed lazily, wandering over to the window to rest himself against it and look out into the glittering sea with a deep sigh.

His mind kept replaying the events of last night and the more awake he felt the more his grin grew, he hadn’t noticed his legs wiggling underneath him in excitement at the thought of you or Leo finally waking up and laying close to him at the window.

You liked him, you definitely liked him, he couldn’t be reading that wrong, because he knew that last night you had been just about to kiss him and recapping the whole month he could now look back and think of little things you’d done that he had been, in Leo’s words, too dense to notice as proof of your growing attraction to him.

He was in the clouds.

And because he was, he hadn’t noticed Raph yelling at him from far below the tower.

Finally, having been called to attention by Leo almost biting his finger off, Donnie glared and woke up from his daydreams now in his usual mood when he noticed Raph had managed to reach your terrace and was talking to him from way over there.

“Donnie! Congratulations! You did it” Raph seemed to be tearing up and Donnie couldn’t understand why “Raph’s so proud of you little guy!”

“What are YOU TALKING ABOUT?” Leo yelled, trying to make his voice louder so Raph would hear, the eldest just chuckled at him.

“Oh, shut up Leo, you just want to show off that you knew first,” Raph said

“He didn’t do anything except go on and on about her highness last night!” Leo yelled with Raph looking weird at him.

“He can’t talk!”

“Well, he would have if he could!” Leo huffed; Raph just shook his head.

“Mikey and I heard close to town, everyone’s all excited about the princess finding her one true love, they’re saying something about her finally getting married soon!”

Donnie’s eyes were the biggest they had ever been in his life and his heart was hammering against his chest, if he had thought last night was a dream then he had entered a coma now, his expression went back to giddy, and then utterly elated while his hands were flapping right beside him, any doubt he may have had left was evaporated at the implications of Raph’s words.

You loved him, you really did love him, so much so your subjects were already thinking of wedding bells, he wondered who you had talked to that the rumor had reached town so soon but it didn’t matter, you loved him and he had to see you right this moment.

Donnie couldn’t even hear Leo calling out to him, he rushed to the closest mirror and fixed his bedhead slightly before hurrying out the door with his pajamas still on, he barely managed to process Leo hanging onto his clothes for dear life as his feet made their way down the hall and stairs as fast as he could go.

The moment he reached the first flight of stairs and looked down at the reception hall his feet faltered, making him stumble, but Donnie managed to catch himself, the sight in front of him though had his elated smile falling off his face faster than when his dad had found his secret cove.

You were right there in front of Casey, but what made his mind reel with a mountain of questions was the man you were holding so tightly onto.

Donnie quickly hid behind a wall, his eyes running through the scene once, twice, every detail of the picture getting burned into his mind.

You looked beautiful, he had never seen you wearing such formal clothing, you preferred to dress casually most of the time, which made the importance of the situation even clearer, and you had that look on your face, that fierce determination he had fallen for at the very beginning and that was suddenly making his stomach churn with anxiousness.

The man at your side was familiar to him, but Donnie couldn’t pinpoint how or if he had ever seen him around the castle, he was dressed in an attire resembling yours in formality, almost princely in fact, his locks of hair like his own but much shorter and obviously stylized by a professional. He looked calm, confident, almost smug even, and looked down at you who held so dearly onto his arm with a charming smile.

Donnie barely processed the fact that his breathing had quickened, he almost missed Casey’s voice as she started talking.

“Well Y/N, it appears I was mistaken,” Casey said, her voice as firm as always but seeming to hold onto a sort of confusion while the woman bowed to the other two “The mystery man of yours does, in fact, exist, I must thank you for rescuing our dear princess”

The other man chuckled, and Donnie instinctively reached out towards his own throat at the familiar timbre “Not at all, such a stunning vision as she is I believe it is I who was rescued by her deep eyes.” He said looking at you and placing one of his hands over your own still holding dearly onto him.

Holding so dearly, why were you holding onto him like that?

“Well, I must still say, congratulations to the both of you for finding each other” Donnie barely noticed but Leo saw Casey’s eyes stray momentarily in the direction of where Donnie and he were hiding.

Finally, you spoke “Danny and I wish to be married as soon as possible,” You said with that confident tone of yours.

And then the shattered pieces of Donnie’s heart were laying there on the floor, scattered everywhere almost to dust, he shook his head disbelievingly, but Casey continued.

“Yes of course your highness, I shall start the preparations” Before Casey could continue you interrupted, stepping into some of the pieces of Donnie’s heart.

“By Saturday Casey” You stated in a tone of no negotiation, that was in three days, right before the end of the spell “The ship will depart at sunset.”

Donnie wasn’t looking anymore, his back to the wall as he hyperventilated, barely hearing Casey’s response about getting everything done in time, Donnie’s chest physically hurt and his hand was grabbing onto his shirt tightly, he felt like clawing at his chest for the pain to stop.

Between Leo trying to grab his attention and the insistent ringing in his ears, Donnie ran away back towards his room, barely conscious of what he was doing as his body looked for a safe place.

It was hard to see where he was going with his eyes scrunched up like that and full of tears and even though he still managed to get out of there without being seen by you Danny caught sight of his figure, his smirk growing as he pulled you closer to his side, the necklace hanging from his neck glowing gently under the sunlight.

“Donnie, listen to me” Leo called out as Donnie slammed the door to his room closed, still breathing harshly “Donnie, think of your surroundings, what do you feel under your feet?”

He could feel the rug at the entrance of the room, he usually liked the sensation, unlike the other rugs around this one was soft, and he rubbed his toes on it.

Leo gave a couple of instructions to Donnie and slowly, he calmed down before laying his back against the closed door and sliding down to the floor, Leo quietened down.

Donnie rubbed his hand against his face, rubbing his eyes, wanting the feeling of the tears left to go away, his expression was angry and his eyes blotched and although for a moment he had just wanted to hit something and tear his chest open right now he felt empty, very empty.

If you loved him, you wouldn’t be rushing to get married to another man, he thought still glaring at the ground, the burning at the corner of his eyes returned, but he made no move to stop the incoming tears, just letting them fall down as he processed the whole situation.

Leo wanted to comfort his brother, tell him how suspicious this man was, tell him his voice was too much like Donnie’s for it to be a coincidence, that he looked too much like him, there were so many things on Leo’s mind about Big Mama and Draxum but he couldn’t bring any of those things up, not when his brother looked so devastated.

So, he sat there quietly, accompanying Donnie.

Three days was a much shorter amount of time than he’d ever thought it was.

After Donnie had gotten better Leo managed to convince him to talk to you, and though Donnie first refused strongly a part of him too hoped for an answer.

An answer he didn’t get because even though Donnie had managed to get all his courage to talk to you, he never managed to catch you, he wondered if you were avoiding him, and though it discouraged him to think so, seeing him with that man constantly only made his fury grow especially because Donnie knew he never got to tell you who he was, what he was, where he came from.

And that also left a bitter feeling in his chest that he tried to ignore because the man you were with wasn’t some idiot who you had to teach horse riding to or what a streetlamp was, he wasn’t constantly asking you about the most simple things.

Danny could speak to you without having to sign or write what he was thinking, he could be more useful to you in your royal tasks than Donnie could, barely even knowing the basics of human customs.

Worse yet, Danny was human, and Donnie was a mix of a turtle and a fish with three big fingers that wouldn’t comfortably rest with your five delicate ones and a tail that would never allow him to dance with you again.

Through discussions with Leo and a few talks he had at the beach with the rest of his brothers Donnie had managed to mostly keep on going, but he would be lying if he said his hopes weren’t already crushed; at night, his insomnia got worse than ever and he wished at times that he had remained under the sea like everyone had asked him to his whole life, maybe they were right, maybe his dad was right.

He thought all of this with a wrath that blocked the rest of his thoughts, if he’d never gone to the surface or learned so much about the human world, he wouldn’t be like this now.

He wanted to regret learning to dance with a pair of feet, or learning about blacksmithing and the various ways metal could be manipulated.

He wanted to regret learning about the different variations of flora in the human world and about all the engineering books that he poured hours in the library into.

He wanted to regret getting to know you and loving you.

He couldn’t regret it, and he couldn’t stop loving you.

So once again, with puffy eyes he wished he could hide, Donnie stood near the ship where you would be wed, arms crossed just staring at the boat and since he refused to get in the ship, he was now condemned to watch it slowly leave the harbor.

The further away the ship got the more it cemented in that this was it, it was over, you were marrying someone else and any moment now he would go back to being a merturtle, unable to even see you again.

He didn’t cry, he’d wasted enough tears, so he waited, just wanting to go home.

Donnie was lost in thought enough he didn’t see Leo get in the ship before it left nor did he see Raph and Mikey following in the water.

“Psst, Leo” Leo perked up at the sound of April’s voice calling him, he looked up to his friend with a smile before the smile fell at seeing her covering her mouth to stop from laughing.

“Yeah, yeah, just get it over with” Leo grumbled while April tried to calm herself down.

“Wooh, sorry, sorry, when Raph and Mikey found me and told me the whole situation, I didn’t actually expect you to be so small!” She said carefully picking him up in her hands and straying away from the eyes of the people invited to the party.

“Look, you can laugh all you want later, but we need to find this guy Danny, something is wrong about this whole situation,” Leo said looking around, April hummed.

“Um, Leo, are you sure about this? I don’t know, the princess seems to really love this guy” She said in a quiet voice, though she wanted Donnie to be happy and her heart had broken once she learned everything that had been happening to her friend she didn’t want to give them any false hopes, April had always been realistic with her expectations.

Leo sighed “That’s what’s weird, April, this guy pops out of nowhere one day and that same day she decides to marry him? She was about to kiss Donnie the day before that and call me a romantic but I don’t think she’s the type to jump directly into the next guy’s arms” He shook his head “No, April, something is wrong, this guy is extremely suspicious and his voice tells me it has something to do with Big Mama and Draxum.”

April looked at him curiously “His voice?”

The moment she asked that they heard laughter coming from one of the cabins, Leo shushed her and told her to go there, that was it, that was the cabin where the groom was getting married.

The both of them reached a window and peeked inside, there stood Danny and immediately April could understand Leo’s reasoning, red flags popping in her mind at the voice that was exactly the same as her best friend’s.

“Things are working out perfectly, mom” He called snickering while fixing one of his eyebrows in the mirror, his reflection though, was different from his physical appearance, Leo saw through the mirror a big rat yokai instead “The sun is setting, and that little stupid prince is so heartbroken he didn’t even get in to see the show!” Danny laughed while a shadow got closer to April and Leo’s view.

Leo looked pissed off as he realized whom that shadow belonged to, now wearing a new pair of legs right in front of him was Big Mama.

“Oh the poor turtley-boo, I can’t believe he’s missing it, but oh well, the show must go on, mustn’t it deary?” She said in faux sympathy before grinning “and while we accomplish this menial task, Draxum is down there getting me my crown, oh this is turning out even better than we thought, imagine, already having the sea, once you marry the princess the yokai can keep the land for themselves.”

“Just as you always wished Big Mama” Danny said bowing slightly.

“We have to get out of here, now!” Leo yelled and April ran away “We gotta tell Donnie! This is all a lie fabricated by Big Mama, he needs to get that kiss, or who knows what’ll happen! You stay and stall the wedding!” April nodded immediately, they got close to the border and April peeked out, finding Mikey in the water she threw Leo in, his brother carrying him back up to the surface.

The three brothers hurriedly made their way toward Donnie as Leo explained what was happening.

Thankfully the ship hadn’t gotten far yet “Donnie!” Leo called out once he was close enough, Donnie lifted his gaze and gave him a blank glare “Donnie, we went on the ship, Danny is not a human! He is a yokai sent by Big Mama, it’s all a trap! He has your voice!”

Leo’s hurried explanation finally made it into Donnie’s thought process and he looked at his other two brothers for confirmation, watching them both nod quickly was everything Donnie needed to look around in search of anything that could get him there in time.

There was a rowboat close, and Donnie immediately jumped on it, untying the rope and keeping it in place as Leo got inside and Raph went behind the boat on the water.

“Mikey!” Raph called the youngest “You need to go to dad, tell him what’s going on, now! Before Baron Draxum gets to him” Mikey nodded rapidly before submerging and swimming as fast as he could toward the castle.

Donnie took the rows and started going as fast as he could while Raph helped push the boat, Big Mama’s voice telling him he had a month to get the kiss kept playing in his mind while he saw the sun getting closer to the line of the sea.

Back in the boat, Danny was already waiting for his bride at the altar ignoring Mayhem who seemed to be glaring and barking at him from where the public stood; meanwhile, April was whispering into Sunita’s ears, the woman nodded and took one of the trays into her hands, starting to walk close to the man with the various pastries swaying precariously in it.

At that same moment, the bride was walking down the aisle in her white and long flowing wedding dress, finally reaching the groom who took her hand in his, they both stood before the master of ceremonies who started his speech.

Before much else could happen, Sunita screamed, her feet stumbling suspiciously on something and the tray with pastries flying from her hands over to Danny, falling directly on him and covering his wedding suit completely in sugar and cream.

Danny’s expression was absolutely furious and he glared at Sunita who made a show of gasping in panic “Oh dear! I am so sorry, how clumsy of me! I should have been more careful, and your suit is ruined, how can this be?” While Sunita kept rambling April reached down to help her.

“Oh, this is terrible!” April said “You can’t get married in this! Quick! We need to fix your suit, we must clean it, but it may not be salvageable…” Danny wanted to yell at the girls, but you didn’t react much, your expression dull.

Donnie was finally close enough and with agility, he reached the stairs at the side of the ship, a determined glare set on his features while he started going up as fast as he could.

The ship succumbed to chaos, Danny finally yelling at the girls and telling the master to continue the ceremony, but April was determined and she pulled on his suit “You can’t! Not like this! And your necklace is so out of place!” She pulled on the necklace and Danny pulled back with a vengeance.

“Let it go you trashy little-!” The necklace snapped from the chain and flew through the air just as Donnie jumped inside the ship, it crashed on the floor and broke into pieces, the glow leaving and rushing directly onto him.

Donnie gasped, loudly this time, like he had finally recovered his breath, realizing what had happened after a burst of shock he let out a relieved laugh, his eyebrows scrunched up together with a small smile forming on his face.

The breaking of the necklace and the sound of a desperate laugh seemed to wake you up from the trance you had been in for almost four days, your head was throbbing with a horrible headache, and you reached up to hold it reflexively, but once you processed your surroundings your eyes went directly to Donnie, your Donnie who’s laughter you could hear.

You called out to him confused “Donnie?”

“Y/N,” he said making you startled at how your name sounded with his voice, filled with so much relief, you started walking your way and though he looked nervous his smile was still in place, eyes never straying from you.

“You can talk?” You asked with wonder while he nodded, you walked faster to the end of the aisle and sighed after taking his hands on yours, one part of you screamed that you had been right, it had been him all along that you were looking for, it was his voice, of course it was his voice, who else could it ever be for you other than Donnie?

And yet another part of you remembered bits and pieces only of what had happened the last couple of days, one of these things you couldn’t get out of your mind was Donnie’s heartbroken expression, and through the confusion of whatever was going on right now you felt the need to reassure him somehow, so you squeezed his hands with yours, he seemed like he was breathing better.

“Y/N, get away from him!” Danny called out, but his nasal voice replaced the one he had been using before and he immediately covered his mouth after that, no longer having any control over you.

With a triumphant grin sent the way of his doppelganger Donnie turned back to you, holding your hands up with his as he looked directly into your eyes “I wanted to tell you, but I didn’t know how to explain it so—”

In wanting to explain what happened, Donnie had forgotten about the time crunch he was in, and the other reason why he hadn’t just told you sooner, a sharp pain ran through his chest, and he grunted, falling to his knees and making you panic, wild with worry you leaned close to him, calling his name.

The sun was set and there was a collective gasp from the public as Donnie breathed rapidly, not failing to realize with horror that his skin was changing in texture, scales forming back and slowly turning from brown to a deep green hue.

“You are too late,” Big Mama said appearing from one of the cabins with a scary grin on her face while Donnie tried to cover his from your sight, his bandana which had disappeared hanging loosely from his face and with his now three-fingered hands he tried to hide behind it.

The screams from the crowd were loud as Big Mama turned to her big spidery form, even bigger than she normally was “You really should read the things you sign with more patience, nobody leaves the important bits at the beginning of the contract” She said with a sinister tone.

“Donnie?” You leaned down reaching for his arm but Donnie pulled away from you in panic, you managed to catch his eye, wide open under his fingers and bandana, trying to get away from you, you could barely breathe “Donnie please” you begged hoping he’d talk to you, explain what was happening, how could you help him if you didn’t understand what was going on?

Your mind kept telling you about the tail you saw back at the beach after being saved, it had been magenta with undertones of violet, you thought yourself crazy, that you must have imagined it, but it was right there in front of you, part of the man you knew had been there that day.

The same man who was trying to hide his tail behind himself.

“I’m sorry” He blabbered, trying to get closer to the edge of the ship “I lied, I lied I lied and I should have told you but I wasn’t, you don’t, you don’t deserve this and if I had just stayed human you wouldn’t have had to, I—”

Donnie was on the verge of a panic attack, everything was ruined, even if he had avoided your wedding everything was already crashing down around him and though you were still confused you couldn’t let him spiral like that, your hands lingered in the air close to him but you made no move to touch him when you didn’t know if he’d be okay with it.

“Donnie, darling, listen to me please, focus on my voice,” You said stopping his rambling “Donnie, love, it’s okay, you’re okay, tell me what to do,” you said and he finally managed to see your expression.

You weren’t disgusted or horrified like he had feared so many times when he pondered this scenario, you were worried for him, asking him to let you help him, being mindful of his limits and in his mind, he managed to connect the words you’d said.

Despite everything that had just happened, you’d called him love.

He was letting go of his face, about to say something when Big Mama’s loud laughter and the screaming of everyone else finally reached his ears again, he turned around only to see the big yokai pulling him with her claws, he yelled, reaching up to try and pull the yokai’s claws away from him.

“Donnie!” You yelled and Big Mama smiled.

“I am so very sorry for your wedding dear, but we have very important business to attend, wouldn’t want to leave your family waiting, would you turtley-boo?” She laughed throwing herself and Donnie out of the ship and into the sea.

“DONNIE!”

“Oh you have a lot of guts, purpley, but don’t worry, that was just a side gig, it would have been nice, but this is more important” Big Mama spoke while she pulled Donnie with her.

“Donatello!” His dad’s familiar voice called out and Donnie felt relief, it suddenly left though as he looked up.

There, in formation swam his father and brothers back to their original form, but the three of them had gold glowing chains holding their wrists together, and right beside them was Baron Draxum.

“Why Lou, haven’t seen you in such a long time, how are you?” Big mama chanted while Splinter growled.

“Let my son go” Splinter said and Big Mama laughed.

“Not a chance Lou, I’m sure my partner already filled you in but just so you are sure,” a contract, the very same Donnie had signed before was pulled in front of him “He is mine now as are the other three.”

“No!” Donnie growled “They didn’t sign anything, only I did.”

“Oh dear, really, the very last part of the contract is very important, in fact, I would have skipped the beginning that you did read and gone down immediately, what you signed gives me ownership of anyone who drank the potion, and your brothers drank it!” Donnie paled after hearing so.

“That makes no sense, my signature can’t count for them.”

“Oh but there’s a contract you didn’t consider at all, a contract of blood a pact of brotherhood” Big Mama grinned towards a deflating Splinter and the brothers glared at her.

Donnie looked devastated and his gaze went towards his dad the moment a pair of Draxum’s vines held onto his wrists “Papa, I’m sorry! I didn’t mean to, I should have—”

Donnie’s voice was interrupted by Splinter attempting to destroy the contract with a beam of his trident, however, the contract stayed untouched.

“Let’s make a deal, shall we?” Draxum asked Splinter while the turtles complained and told him not to, their father looked down.

“What do the two of you want?” He growled.

“I for one want my warriors back” Draxum hummed pointing towards the brothers.

“Warriors?” Raph asked and Leo rolled his eyes.

“Hello? He called us that when we met, no? Not ringing any bells? Only me? Okay.” Leo sighed.

“Absolutely not, why would I even do that?” Splinter answered.

“Well, of course, I could settle for something else, I am reasonable” Draxum hummed “You will give us yourself in exchange for the turtles, but there are four of them, and only one of you, even your crown seems an unjust exchange.”

“You will give me back my crown Lou” Big Mama stated “And Draxy here will have control of all your powers and theirs, do we have a deal?”

“So you’ll create more warriors and champions to terrorize the humans and yokai alike?” Splinter laughed bitterly, but the contract still stared straight at him.

Back on the surface, you were now in one of the row boats, Casey calling out for you “Your highness what are you doing?!”

“I already lost him once! I am not about to lose him again!” You yelled going further into the sea and hoping to catch a glimpse of anything that could tell you where Donnie was.

At that moment, Donnie was going through sensory hell as he remembered the things that had grabbed onto him when he had entered Big Mama’s and Draxum’s cave, it hadn’t been a thing, it had been someone, and whatever had happened to them was happening to him.

His brothers yelled for him and Splinter had given in, pointing his trident at the contract, he signed, replacing Donnie’s name for his.

In an instant, Donnie was back to normal, and Splinter was turned into one of those things, Donnie cried out for him as did the others whose chains had broken at the signing.

“PAPA!” They all called swimming over to the king in his withered form.

Above, you were able to see a bright light coming from the water “gotcha” you said before throwing yourself into the water, your wedding dress had been torn to pieces for mobility and a harpoon was held tight in your hand.

“At last,” Big Mama said taking the crown in her hands, Draxum reached out for the trident, but she stopped him “up up up, Draxy, you know how much I love our partnership, don’t you? I just don’t think this is right for you” She said, taking the trident in her hands and laughing maniacally.

“We had a deal, witch” He yelled angrily while she chuckled.

“Oh, you really should all start reading the bottom lines of the contracts,” She said.

“You must be forgetting I still own all their powers, so help me, witch, this alliance may be over, but I assure you my goal will be completed,” Draxum said, his form appearing larger with the use of Raph’s ninpo.

While they were both distracted a strong sharp pain hit Big Mama’s side and she yelled turning back to see you swimming there and the harpoon having hit her.

Leo took advantage of the situation to take his swords and attack Draxum directly.

“Foolish! You cannot defeat me when I have every ounce of your mystic energy” The baron gloated as the other brothers reached out to try anyway.

Donnie yelled out your name, being held back by one of Big Mama’s claws “Look out!”

You swam back to the surface as fast as you could but were pulled down by Huginn and Muninn without being able to get much air, thankfully, Mikey noticed this and rushed to your aid “Let her go!” He yelled, pulling out his nunchaku to get rid of the gargoyles.

You were let go, but Big Mama still had you in her sight “Say goodbye to your sweetheart” She sang, pointing at you with the trident, Donnie desperately managed to claw his way to Big Mama’s arms and pull the trident into another direction before it hit you, Huginn and Muninn barely able to avoid being hit instead, they rushed away of the battlefield.

Big Mama was pissed, and Donnie followed you as you went up to the surface, trying to make sure you were okay while his brothers fought against Draxum.

Big Mama wanted power and if she needed to kill Draxum for it, so be it, a lightning bolt coming from the trident hit the yokai and he breathed harshly realizing what had happened, the turtles all gasped as he exploded into tiny little pieces, they looked out in horror and realized their mystic abilities where now the possession of the second person in the contract.

Big Mama grew and grew and suddenly she was a titan of an aquatic monster with the powers of a god.

“We need to go to Donnie, now!” Raph yelled and the three brothers rushed towards the surface.

You were gasping for air when Donnie’s head came out to the surface, looking at you for any wounds “Y/N, you have to get out of here!” He said reaching for you and trying to drag you towards the abandoned rowboat.

“I won’t leave you, Donnie!” You yelled looking straight at him “There has to be something I can do, even if it is from the ship.” Before you could finish your train of thought you were being pushed up by something.

It was big mama having achieved a monumental size, you quickly threw yourselves back into the water, Donnie holding you close to his plastron, but that didn’t last long, as the strength of the big waves Big Mama sent your way separated you, you falling far away from Donnie while he tried to reach you to no avail, screaming your name in worry.

“The sea and all its spoils bow to my power!” As she said this, the very ship where Donnie had first seen you was pulled out from the water and into the surface as Big mama made a miniature tsunami around herself.

The ship almost hit you, to Donnie’s horror from where he could see you, but you managed to grab onto a rope from under the water and pull yourself up into the old ship, thankfully reaching the deck and hoping the wheel still worked.

Big Mama looked at Donnie and shot the rock he had been holding onto, throwing him into her merciless waves.

“I got you!” Raph yelled taking grasp of Donnie’s hand before he fell further down, but it wasn’t over, Big Mama was trying to kill all of the brothers and shooting at them who barely managed to avoid the strikes.

When you finally reached the wheel of the boat you turned it rapidly Big Mama’s way, thankful that she was so distracted she would have never even considered you a threat.

You almost cried when you realized the wheel worked, and thanks to her majesty the ship remained afloat and the mast that once held the wooden figure of a mermaid was now sharp and broken, perfect for you.

“So much for true love!” Big Mama exclaimed about to hit the four turtles who held tightly onto each other when her side was impaled by your ship.

Big Mama let out the most horrendous scream of pain you had ever heard and it looked like the lightning she’d tried to inflict had hit her instead, she started crumbling into the ocean, clawing desperately for relief and managing to take hold of the ship, dragging it back down into the water with her.

You jumped out of it fast to not be dragged and swam on your way back to shore, not without looking back to make sure Big Mama was long gone.

You were exhausted, absolutely exhausted, and had too much water inside you, so you crumbled on the beach sand once you reached it, passing out again while the brothers looked at the end of the sea witch and Baron left behind, the feeling of power returning to their bodies, they swam down, hoping with her end, their father was back to normal.

The spell was broken, on anyone who had ever made a deal with Big Mama, thus including the king who with a beam of light returned to his form, finding his trident falling close to him.

“DADDY!” The chorus of his sons caught his attention before he was embraced tightly into a hug by four almost crying merturtles.

Splinter could hear the rapid-fire apologies of his purple-coded son and made sure to hold him much closer, a small smile forming on her face and tears in the corner of the old king’s eyes.

Donnie looked at you from a rock close to shore, you were only now starting to wake up from how you’d passed out earlier and he wanted nothing more than to go to you.

But how could he ever hope to hold you in his arms again? After everything he had done to his family and you for being so selfish.

He couldn’t do that to his father again, no matter how much his heart ached at the thought of leaving you forever.

Not far away the king and his sons stared at the merturtle who worriedly waited for you to wake up, knowing with his tail, Donnie would never be able to follow you again.

After a moment of contemplation, the king turned to Leo who had a bitter expression on his face “He really does love her, doesn’t he Blue?”

Leo chuckled slightly “Oh pops, you have no idea” Finally the turtle turned to his dad “And he wasn’t doing half bad there, it was like nerd paradise, you know?” Leo’s smile fell “Humans really don’t seem all that bad.”

The king sighed, looking back at Donnie “It is true that after this humans will go back to believing in yokai, someone has to be responsible for keeping relations between sea and land as peaceful as possible” Leo perked up at this and looked at his father with absolute shock, the king smiled softly “That’s one problem solved then since Donatello would be more than competent even if I am unsure of his people skills, surely you’ll help him with that from here Blue, so there’s only one problem left.”

Leo still couldn’t believe what he was hearing, and his other two brothers were close behind gaping at the words of the king, finally, Leo asked “And what’s that?”

“How much I’m going to miss him” Splinter smiled before pointing up with his trident to the second of his middle children, the trident glowing brightly before touching the surface of the water softly, the glowing light followed the water slowly and reached the magenta tail it had been directed towards.

The tail started glowing, sparkling under the light and grabbing Donnie’s attention.

The merturtle looked down to see his tail turning back into a pair of legs and with great shock, he looked towards his family who smiled at him happily, including his father, he couldn’t believe it, the nod of approval his father sent almost making him drop right there, realizing, despite everything they all wanted him to go back to you.

He almost jumped out of the rock and towards you but a lingering thought stopped him as he realized his legs weren’t like the ones he had before, they weren’t human, he wasn’t human, he was a turtle yokai able to walk on land.

Was that truly, okay? He’d lied to you, you hadn’t expected him to be like this, and he faltered, but the thoughts of those murals and your exciting tales of yokai and humans co-existing thankfully gave him a push.

He stood up, walking toward you slowly and remembering that despite everything you’d remained by his side, in fact, you had saved his life.

So maybe his hopes weren’t so foolish after all, and he did owe you an explanation.

With a soft smile returning to his face he watched you hold your head in your hands while you started to sit back up, the moment you looked up you saw Donnie, walking your way from the water in a pair of legs instead of his tail, you let out a sigh of relief knowing he was okay and rushed his way, he beamed as he felt you run into his arms, you collided against him with a huff making him laugh and you smile wide.

“You’re okay” You mumbled into his plastron, pulling him closer to you and making Donnie’s heart flutter, he hummed softly in response, his arms going around you before lifting you and spinning you along with him easily, making you realize how strong he was.

You wouldn’t let yourself think you had all the time in the world again, you were enjoying every second.

You laughed looking back at him, your forehead bumping against his softly before you pulled him close, finally getting that kiss that had been interrupted; he made a sound of surprise against you before melting into the kiss.

Months of dating and learning about each other’s culture led to teaching the world about yokai, and while not everyone was open to this you were grateful to those who tried and Leo who always seemed to know how to manage your situation, even when Donnie grumbled about his methods.

And eventually, that led to a wedding Casey could actually approve of and that you forced your people to approve of with pretty words about it being good for yokai and human relationships.

You were marrying the love of your life on a beautiful ship with guests from both worlds, especially Donnie’s family who had been practicing walking only for this event.

The music started and as the sunlight hit your wedding attire you held an appreciation for how much better you looked in this than the last time.

But more than anything, your heart was hitting your chest harshly once your eyes connected with his own pair at the altar, his whiskey-colored pair seemed to glow at the sight of you and a goofy smile you didn’t know if he was aware of made its way to his face, now a darker shade of green than normal. From the corner of your eye, you saw Leo smiling beside his twin and Mikey and Raph seemingly startled by someone they saw in the crowd, Casey, Sunita, and April stood close to your side of the altar and then the music quietened down, a green hand with three fingers reaching for your own as your groom smiled at you with more confidence and all the love in the world in his eyes, you took his hand, thinking about how perfectly it fit in yours before standing beside him, body towards the master of ceremonies, your eyes though never straying from him.

Though this is not the end, I will be making the sequel like you guys asked! Designing the OC child of Donnie and the reader might be something I will ask your help with through polls before that, also I will first be working on the Leo x reader Anastasia AU so stay tuned!

It is done! Thanks to everyone for reading this and your comments that always make my day! (Los que están en Español también, gracias <3) I am so happy!
