Project: Siren

NA - Dark Gothic Fantasy - Fairytale Retelling

Sirens. Beautiful, loyal, deadly.

As one of the elite warriors of the Mer Queen, Naia’s heart belongs to the sea and its people. So, when rumors start to circulate that Princess Pearle had disappeared to the Realm Above the Waves, ensnared by a human’s silver tongued lies, Naia is one of the first to volunteer to find and retrieve the wayward royal.

Given only a few short weeks before the night of the mysterious Red Wedding ritual, failure would mean Pearle being left to a grim fate. To that end, Naia is willing to do anything, even if that means making a deal with the cursed Deep Sea Witch.

But Naia knows that all magic has a price to pay – and the cost is something she may not be able to lose.
