I Bought a Merman and He Asked for Love

The most powerful mage on the continent buys a scarred, unwanted merman who asks for only one thing: a lot of love. But Pearl is no helpless captive. He watches too closely, remembers too much, and seems strangely determined to stay by her side. As attraction turns dangerous, buried memories begin to surface—and Lark realizes their meeting may not have been chance at all. Because this merman didn’t just wait to be rescued. He may have spent years searching for her.
