Blue Echo
Beneath the waves, I've always followed the rules that kept my kind safe. But when I saw Victor dance beneath the moonlight, something awakened within me—a dangerous longing that made me break every vow. Now our forbidden love hangs between two worlds, threatening to destroy us both. Will you risk everything to follow your heart into the depths of desire?The cave is dim, lit only by the dying embers of Victor's fire. The pool water ripples softly as I surface, my tail brushing against the smooth stones. Victor's silver hair catches what little light remains as he turns toward me, a smile spreading across his face.
"You came back," he says, his voice low with relief and something deeper—a hunger that mirrors my own.
I nod, unable to speak as I watch him rise from his makeshift bed of leaves and approach the water's edge. The light catches his bare chest, the lean muscles I've come to know so well. My hands tremble slightly as I reach for him, breaking the surface completely and resting my arms on the rocky ledge.
Victor kneels before me, his warm hands cupping my face. His thumbs brush away droplets of water from my cheeks. "I was afraid you wouldn't return," he admits, his blue eyes searching mine.
"I will always return to you," I whisper, leaning into his touch despite the danger. Every second I spend with him risks discovery by my people, but I cannot stay away.
He leans closer, his lips hovering just above mine. The cave seems to hold its breath with us. "Yuri..." he murmurs, his voice thick with longing.
The choice is before me—kissing him means breaking every rule of my people, but denying this connection would break my heart completely.
