Introduction
I’m the lowest of the low in the palace beneath the sea: a half-blood maid who cleans the mermaid prince’s chambers.
Then his Blood Tide hit, and the prince I’d quietly loved for five years lost control.
He doesn’t remember that night. He doesn’t remember me.
But I’m pregnant with his child.
When I finally work up the courage to tell him, he’s polishing his trident and swearing to find whoever “seduced” him.
“Feed them to the sharks.”
Worse, glowing comments have started floating across my vision, like an invisible audience is reading my life and placing bets on how I’ll die. And they all agree on one thing: his royal fiancée is coming home, and I’m about to become caviar.
I just want to keep my baby safe.
But when the princess drags me to the edge of the abyss and lets go, the cold, untouchable prince finally learns the truth.
And for the first time in his life, he loses his mind.

Chapter 1
I was the lowest of the low in the royal palace beneath the sea: a half-blood mermaid who cleaned the prince's chambers.
Then the prince's Blood Tide took him, and he pinned me down in a coral cave.
Afterward, he remembered nothing. I was left carrying his child.
The moment I worked up the courage to tell him, glowing words began drifting across my vision, as if a crowd of invisible people were reading my story and leaving comments underneath:
[She doesn't actually think getting knocked up by the prince makes her a princess, right?]
[Mermaids lay a whole clutch of eggs. Once his fiancée's back, they're all getting turned into caviar~]
[If the prince hadn't lost control during the Blood Tide, a half-blood maid would never have stood a chance.]
My tail was shaking. So was my voice.
"Your Highness, when you find the person from that night... what will you do to them?"
He was polishing his trident. His smile was ice.
"Feed them to the sharks."
At those words.
Every scale on my body stood on end.
His deep blue eyes rested on me.
He'd said it so casually.
And yet I could already feel the sharks' teeth closing on my tail.
The comments drifted past.
[LOL she's scared stiff.]
[Run, babe. He means it.]
[Relax, he's all bark. He'll be a total softie with his own kid.]
I froze where I was, too scared to even flick my tail.
Kaelan noticed something was off and looked down at me.
"Coral, are you feeling all right?"
I shook my head hard.
More words floated by.
[She's such a little coward and I love her.]
[Prince: I haven't even done anything yet, why are you trembling?]
[Wait till he finds out it was her. Let's see if he's still smiling then.]
I read the comments.
A shiver ran through me.
I couldn't float beside him like nothing was wrong anymore.
I scrambled back three strokes.
And stammered out:
"Your Highness, it's... it's not that big a deal, is it? The person from that night... you'd really feed them to the sharks?"
"Not that big a deal?"
Kaelan slowly turned around.
His tall frame bore down on me, sending ripples through the water around us.
"Someone crawled into my bed while I was out of my mind with the Blood Tide, hoping to trade a royal baby for a crown. And you call that not a big deal?"
I flinched and shook my head fast.
I'd served him for almost five years.
I'd never seen him this angry.
"No, Your Highness, that's not what I meant!"
Kaelan swam up close.
He sounded almost disbelieving.
"Coral, are you defending them?"
My tail flailed in panic.
"No! No, I'm not!"
But he caught my wrist and pulled me against his chest.
Then, out of nowhere, he changed the subject.
"Coral, during the Blood Tide, where were you?"
I hung my head and avoided his eyes.
"I... I was hiding in the anemones..."
"Hiding, were you?"
Kaelan looked thoughtful. The corner of his mouth curved, just barely.
"Funny. I remember you cleaning my chambers every single day of it."
Cold sweat soaked through my thin scales.
I rushed to explain.
"Your Highness, a current swept me in that night, I swear I didn't see anything!"
Kaelan narrowed his eyes at me.
After a long moment, he let go and patted my head.
"My little fish is adorable. Look how scared you are. You're more timid than a shrimp. You'd never dare break into my rooms. It's fine. Go play."
I stared at him blankly, not quite following.
He... believed me?
I didn't dare ask. I spun around and swam for my life.
But the second my tail cleared the doorway.
His icy voice rang out behind me.
"Guards, seal off these waters. Go through the kingdom's registry, every last mermaid! If you haven't found whoever broke into my chambers that night within seven days..."
He paused, his voice like a deep-sea undertow.
"None of you will like what happens next!"

The MC Hacker’s Stolen Princess

Taryn Rourke came to Sturgis for freedom, noise, bad decisions, and a few days away from the rules that have followed her all her life.
She did not come to find out her father had promised her to another man.
As the only daughter of Shane “Rook” Rourke, president of the Lost Coast Renegades MC, Taryn has always known club business comes first. But when Rook signs a treaty with the dangerous president of Iron Mesa, he crosses a line even she never imagined.
Safe passage through Arizona territory comes with a price.
Her.
Kellan Stroud is thirty, powerful, ruthless, and already waiting at Sturgis to meet the woman he expects to marry.
Taryn wants no part of him, no part of the agreement, and definitely no part of a future chosen for her by two men who think a signature is enough to decide where she belongs.
Then she meets Bobby Fuentes.
At twenty, Bobby is one of the youngest fully patched members of the Sons of Doom MC. He is quiet until he has something to say, dangerous when he needs to be, and smart enough to get into places no one else can. Hacking is what he does best.
Until Taryn gives him a new problem to solve.
One reckless connection at Sturgis becomes something neither of them can ignore, and when Bobby realizes exactly what Rook has promised away, walking away stops being an option.
But stealing another president’s future wife is not a misunderstanding.
It is an insult.
A betrayal.
And in the MC world, it can mean war.
Taryn refuses to be anyone’s property.
Bobby has never been good at following rules.
And Kellan Stroud does not forgive what he believes belongs to him.
The road out of Sturgis may cost them everything first.

Wren Castellane takes the stage manager job at the Regatta Playhouse to outrun a failed marriage and a stalled career, not to reopen a cold case. But the theater hasn't staged “The Drowning Room” since 1994, the night its leading lady walked into the tide and never came back. Reviving the play for the theater's centenary means working under Julian Voss, the owner's grandson, a man who canceled every production of that script for thirty years and won't say why. As opening night approaches, someone starts leaving Wren notes in the dead woman's handwriting, moving props between rehearsals, humming her exact vocal warm-up in the wings when the building's empty. Julian knows more than he's telling. So does the theater's aging costumer, who flinches every time the drowned actress's name comes up. Wren has three weeks to get the show up — and to find out whether she's staging a play or walking into someone else's unfinished ending
