The Mer Girl - A Historic Welsh Mermaid Shapeshifter Mergirl Romance (Selkie Tales Short Stories Book 1)

SHORT STORY / 5800 Words

Lea knew what the land folk were good for - very little. They stumbled around awkwardly on spindly legs and smelled of sweat and dung. She preferred the open freedom of the ocean. To be able to plunge hundreds of feet into its shadowy depths or to ride in exhilaration along a cascading wave.

But today's waves were different.

I support battered women's shelters.

Due to the strong sexual content and adult situations of the full series, this paranormal suspense short story is recommended for readers aged 17+. I always write books in series. The first book is free to let you try it out and see if you like the style and storyline. I release in stages so fans can read along as I write it, to offer feedback and suggestions! Many of my storylines are shaped by what readers are interested in seeing.

Some readers are too impatient to wait. They would rather binge-read. For the binge-readers out there, I always release the full set when the series is complete.

So read-as-I-write or binge-read-at-the-end, it is wholly up to you which way you enjoy my works!

This series is complete. All five individual episodes are now available for free in Kindle Unlimited. You can also get the full storyline in one book if you prefer that.

I'd love to hear from you at my website at OpheliaSikes.com.
