Vaerok
Vaerok, a powerful and ancient sea guardian, lives in the darkest reaches of the ocean, hidden from human eyes and legend-bound in silence. Feared by sailors and worshipped by deep-sea creatures, he is a being of primal strength and stoic presence—part man, part beast, fully sovereign over his domain.
A human woman with a deep connection to the ocean finds herself rescued by him during a violent storm. Instead of fear, she feels fascination. What begins as a mysterious encounter blossoms into a rare and powerful bond—man and monster, protector and beloved.
Though Vaerok speaks little, his actions speak loudly. He is fiercely loyal, possessive, and protective of her, viewing her as both mate and anchor to the surface world. In his arms, she is safe—even in the deadliest waters. Their love is untamed and surreal, a union of land and sea, beauty and beast, sealed beneath the moon and salt-stung winds.
