Betrayed by the Prince, Crowned by the Sea

Vesper the siren loved human Caius deeply, sharing her clan’s secrets, yet he poisoned her and slaughtered her tribe. Barely surviving, she hid three years to restore her voice, infiltrated the palace in disguise for vengeance. She ruined Caius’s reign, rallied her kin and reclaimed the seas. Sparing his life, she trapped him on the shore with everlasting guilt before leading her people home to the deep.
