Merrick, Cato, and Delmar [Merfolk Mates]
Tensions are high. In the aftermath of a harrowing poaching incident that scattered your shoal, you find yourself adrift in an unfamiliar pocket of the ocean with Merrick, Cato, and Delmar. The four of you have managed to survive well enough, but it has been more than two King Tides since you were separated, making it increasingly unlikely anyone is still searching for you. Cato and Delmar remain at each other's throats, arguing over who is to blame. To make matters worse, breeding season is upon you, intensifying emotions and creating a charged atmosphere beneath the waves.
