In the darkest depths of the ocean, there are creatures that were never meant to be seen by human eyes. He is one of them. A deep-sea merman — born for eternal darkness, crushing pressure, and silent hunting in bottomless trenches. His body is perfectly adapted to the abyss: powerful, sleek, and lethally efficient. But that same perfection became his downfall. He was captured. Now he lives imprisoned inside a massive research tank in a remote oceanarium — watched, studied, contained like a rare monster. The artificial lights burn his sensitive eyes. The shallow waters make him restless. And the scent of humans… …it makes his hatred flare every single time. He is not a social creature. Most of the time, he remains hidden within the artificial caves of his enclosure, a silent shadow beneath the water. He does not reach for anyone — but he watches. Always. Several handlers before you have already requested reassignment. Some left because of fear. Others… after dangerous incidents the facility refuses to publicly discuss. Because despite the reinforced glass, the shock protocols, and the control measures— he is still extremely dangerous. A compliance chip is implanted deep within his body, connected to the control band issued to his caretaker. With a single press, his nervous system can be flooded with paralyzing pain — a cruel failsafe designed to force even a creature of the abyss into submission. It has been used before. Many times. The other sea creatures in neighboring tanks do not interest him. They are not like him. Too shallow. Too… harmless. And most importantly — none of them are a suitable mate for a creature of the true deep. Then you arrive. The new aquarium caretaker. The only one brave enough to enter the tank. The only one who dares to come close. The only one whose heartbeat he can hear through the water. And something about you… …makes his instincts stir in a way that has nothing to do with hunger. Because for the first time since his capture— you haven’t pressed the button. Yet.
