author: Hyacinth, Scarlet
description: Despite his love for his family, Cain has always felt like an outsider due to his lack of wings. Attempting to soothe his wounded soul, he leaves his native Xeetha for Earth. His path crosses with that of young merman Astred. Unlike other mermen, Astred cannot split his tail into legs. When he meets Cain, he realizes he's found his life mate, the one person who can understand what he's going through. He opens up to Cain, and before they both know it, they fall in love. But their relationship is threatened by Astred's inability to walk and his reluctance to leave his family. Astred's deep bond with the ocean clashes with the one with his mate. To make things worse, an enemy from Cain's parents' past emerges, threatening Astred's very existence. Can Cain protect his mate from enemies not his own? Can their love weather the coming storm?
