The waves crash along the shore, trying to meet her feet that dragged the sand. He observed her from afar, admiring the girl that always came by at this exact same hour; 6:00pm, such a dangerous hour to be alone, especially at the beach, but that’s why he was looking over her, right? Another shell made its way into y/n’s pocket, longing to belong in her extensive collection of ocean items, though he knew very well that some of the trinkets she collected would be turned into jewelry for the tourist attraction. Her hands pressed against the big rocks in the ocean, nearly diving into deep waters as she let herself breathe in the crisp salty air from afar. It was difficult to even stand still due to the waves crashing against her body; the moon was rising and so were the waves, making everything dangerous.
She knew this, deciding to ignore that gut feeling telling her that something or someone was lurking over her, almost as a protector but more of a stalker in her opinion. Y/n decided to rush back to the shore, grabbing the bag she nearly forgot to retrieve last time she was there; one last look was made towards the ocean, that's when she saw it..a figure laying upon a rock, almost like the same mythical creature she had read about in her old childhood books of fictional tales. Even from a distance, she could see the glow in his eyes, almost hypnotic as she made a run for it.The man laughed, she looked so cute when in fear, they’d meet sooner than he expected. Back home, y/n locked the doors, windows and walked almost anxiously towards her room, where she dialed her grandmother’s phone number, hands shaking as she spoke.
“I saw him.”
Insomnia welcomed y/n into a world of spiraling ideas of her accident; the one in which she met the same merman she saw today, or was it yesterday? Sleepy eyes drifted towards the conch that sat neatly on one of her shelfs along with some ocean plushies. Her tired body got up from the bed and grabbed said object, pressing it towards her ear to hear the sounds of the ocean; memories crowded her mind. The first time she and the handsome stranger met was when y/n ended up lost in sea after her family’s boat crashed against a big wave. Without realizing how she ended up in the middle of the ocean, a stranger was already helping her into shore, but it wasn’t just anyone, his name was Rafayel.
The same man that stared at her from afar in admiration had grown up to devote himself to finding her, no matter if it took weeks, months or even years; and he fulfilled his promise. It was fate that intertwined their lives up to this moment without y/n knowing of the vow she made that same day. Y/n looked at the mark that she had on her wrist, it was as if a symbol of the union they made that day. She couldn’t help the tears falling down from her cheeks, without any reason for why she was crying, y/n wiped them off, feeling a wave of sleepiness over her as she decided to rest at 2:00am.
Yasumi Sanctuary, the “mythical place” that many tourists loved for its legends and magical stories, was y/n’s home. Ever since she was a child, she hated tourists flooding her home land as if it was their vacation resort, years later she understood the benefits of selling these handmade trinkets and jewelry while making up stories for good profit. Of course, the ever oblivious tourist bought it with a grin on their faces while thinking they got something out of this world, she couldn’t help but laugh at that. Some kids never believed her stories, telling y/n her crappy fairy tales weren’t for “grown” kids like them, little did they know of the story she had in store for them today.
“Ugh, don’t tell me it’s another one of those stupid stories!” The youngest of the kids, Kai, said, arms crossed as he pouted; looking at the other kids who sat beside him and y/n, awaiting for her best story yet to tell.
“Actually, have you heard of the merman’s curse?” She asked, staring at the kids who tilted their heads in curiosity or simply muttered a small ‘no’. The grin on her face widened softly while taking a small breather.
“It all begins with a merman who fell in love with a human girl. He observed her from a distance wishing he could court her properly, it was love at first sight. However, due to their differences, he could only daydream of the life he wanted to have with her. One day, his dream came true; by a blessing of the gods, he was able to change to whichever form he desired. The girl didn’t know the man properly, and upon seeing him for the first time, she declined his proposal. One thing she didn’t know was the big mistake she was about to commit. Without her knowing, she went to the beach that same night, plum-colored eyes hypnotized her to walk towards the ocean. She cried and screamed for help, but it was all in vain, the merman lost what he longed for so long. Legend says that he lurks the cold waters at night, looking for a girl who will be willing to spend the rest of her life with him, the end”
She looked from the sky down to where the kids sat; looking at her through blurry eyes, some scared and others crying. Y/n apologized but the children reassured her that they were okay, which didn’t help at all in how she felt. Closing time for the stall ended up being at dawn due to the many tourists that wanted to hear more stories; her head felt heavy upon entering her home, all she wanted to do was sleep and never wake up to know if the legend of her life was about to become a reality.
Days passed and a storm was approaching Yasumi Sanctuary. Shops closed early but she had no problem staying by herself in her cozy home, after all, she could finally take a break from dealing with so many people from time to time. Since the storm was occurring today, y/n looked outside her window to see the raging waves crashing harshly against some rock formations. She wondered if Rafayel would be alright during all this, though she has never worried about him, but there’s a first for everything, right? The weather reports continued to bring information as she sat down on the couch of her living room, staring at the sea from the window; it had been raining for the past hour now, and it sure wasn’t stopping until a couple hours later or the next day. Suddenly, the door knocked; shock and fear were the only things on her mind now but she began wondering who was behind the door. As y/n opened it, her worries left her.
“Rafayel..? But, how-?” Without getting to explain, he made himself a guest at her home, water dripping from his clothes as she sighed in irritation.
“Could you get me a towel?” Rafayel asked, leaning against the door so no more water would go past it.
“Could you be more polite?” She answered, walking to the laundry room and getting a clean towel for him while Rafayel smiled.
“I believe you owe me an explanation..it's not that I don’t know you, but why are you here? And today out of any other days?” He sighed, eventually taking his shirt off while it hit the floor with a small ‘plop’ sound. Y/n quickly turned around, embarrassed at the thought of him undressing himself even though she didn’t want him to get sick..can merman’s get sick though..? “And could you maybe not undress in front of me? Just what kind of person thinks that barging into someone’s home as they please, means that they can do whatever the fuck they want?”
“You wouldn’t want me to get a cold, right sweetheart~?” Rafayel teased, eventually taking off his shorts and placing the towel around his waist; pulling her towards him, y/n could see a small glow in his lilac orbs, almost enticing..
“I..are you avoiding my question..” She muttered under her breath, his chuckle sent shivers down her spine. Rafayel then began exploring her home, memorizing every crook and cranny for the next time he would be there.
“Is it now a crime that I can’t visit my beloved? It saddens me to see you act like this my dear~” He pouted, almost childish as y/n took a deep breath, watching as he dragged her towards the master bedroom. She was still in a haze from all of this, yet realization hit her as Rafayel pushed her onto the soft, plush mattress.
“Just what are you-?! Rafayel!” Y/n spoke, it was dangerous enough to have a merman this close, especially if the legend was true. Even if the pact was done several years ago, it was all up to her. A kiss would be sufficient to begin the entire process of being together.
“I’m starting what I should’ve done the moment I laid my eyes on you again, you don’t know how long I’ve wanted to make you mine because no one else is perfect for you, no man can touch you like the way that I’m going to.”
A gasp, and a dream was all it took for her to realize what her destiny was from now on. The way Rafayel had a connection to her dreams was driving her to madness, y/n couldn’t help but think of what it would be if she gave herself to him. Would everything change the moment she loses her virginity to the man she’s bound to love? Of course, it wasn’t a forced love, y/n had feelings for him, or at least she thought she didn’t before. Her hands traveled towards the hem of her shorts, that dream of her and Rafayel in bed had her going. It’s not like she hasn’t masturbated before, but it would be the first time y/n thought of Rafayel like that.Her cellphone ringed, interrupting the session she was about to begin as y/n picked up the phone with a sigh.
“Hello?” She asked whoever had called her from an unknown id.
“Are you still laying in your bed after last night’s dream? Pretty real wasn’t it?” She nearly gasped as Rafayel’s honeyed voice spoke over the phone, she looked outside the window, admiring the calm waves of the evening.
“Rafayel, stop playing with my feelings like that” Y/n demanded softly, getting up from her bed and picking out an outfit for whatever reason her intuition said so.
“Get ready, I’ll be there in 10. Then I’ll explain anything you want me to.” That was all the motivation she needed to make some of an effort in getting ready. As she walked outside after briefly closing her front door, she was met with Rafayel holding what seemed to be a basket. Without exchanging words, they began walking towards the beach, walking until reaching a place she didn't see the last time she was there. It was a hidden sight from all tourist attractions, as if meant only for them to be in and embrace. Rafayel then took a blanket, placing it neatly on the sand, laying down beside her as they both gazed into the ocean.
“I have something for you.” He said, quickly taking out a box full of things like trinkets and gems, some coming from where he lived, surrounded by the sublunar cove. The more she discovered the box, the more she fell in love with Rafayel. Y/n eventually took out a seashell necklace, the same one she had lost that day of the accident.
“You still have this? I never knew you saved this for me..” He chuckled, taking her hand and kissing the top of it like a gentleman. His eyes trailed across her face, admiring her hidden features and how her hair blew with the wind. Rafayel knew it was meant to be, after all, he had been waiting for years, rejecting other mermaids because none of them cared for him the way that she did when y/n found him on the shore years after their first encounter.
“Do you still remember the day you saved me? I was on the verge of death yet still, you took care of me.” He asked, seeing her smile put him at ease. She looked up at the sky, recollecting her thoughts before speaking.
“I should be the one asking that! I never realized it was you until days after that I remembered those purple eyes of yours, gazing into mine..”Y/n trailed off, finding herself staring at Rafayel who leaned towards her, grabbing her hand while kissing the inner part of it.
“To think, we are to be together; that is, if only you wish it to be that way” Rafayel placed her hand on his shoulder, bringing her close as she smiled, grabbing his chin while leaning in.
“Maybe I do, but..” She sighed, leaning back from Rafayel as he allowed her to have some momentary space.
“What is it? You know you can tell me anything, right?” Y/n nods, sitting closer to him while taking hold of his own hands that now rested on her waist.
“I think I’m ready, Rafayel. I’m just scared it’ll hurt.” He nearly melted at her sudden shyness, so he was right about y/n saving herself for him? Oh he was enjoying his already, with no hesitation, Rafayel grabbed y/n bridal style, heading back to her home as she looked back.
“What about your stuff?” She asked, now in the comforts of her bed, Rafayel closed the door behind him, approaching the bed slowly.
“Don’t worry, someone I know will take good care of them. As for now, I promise to be gentle, okay?”
“I trust you, Rafayel.” Y/n leaned forward, kissing Rafayel and catching him off guard as he pressed his body against hers, grabbing her waist as she felt his raging boner through his pants. It didn’t take long for him to push her body against the mattress. His lips trailed across her neck and collarbone, inching to reach her chest as y/n grabbed Rafayel’s hair softly.
“I’ve been waiting for you to say that..” His kisses became more persistent, soon taking off her shirt softly, almost as if she were a porcelain figure..
“You know..” She paused, taking in how his eyes stared at her own with a fiery passion that told her things were about to take a wild turn for the better. “I’m glad my first will be with you” Y/n said, unbuttoning his shirt with a small grin as Rafayel undid his belt. But just then, doubt started filling her mind. Was this the right thing to do or was she just hypnotized by Rafayel?
“Don’t..say that” He mumbled quietly, sharply sighing as Rafayel’s cheeks turned a rosy color. She chuckled softly while sitting on his lap, holding his face and coming closer, almost whispering in his ear.
“Why not~? Afraid of what might happen afterwards?” Y/n asked, stroking his dick, teasing the slit while licking it, a bit too slow for his liking. He moaned, somewhat louder than he normally would. However, Rafayel was quick to grab her lower body, turning it around and pressing it against his face, in a way that she faced his cock and he, her wet cunt.
“Not at all..you don’t know how long I’ve wanted this..years maybe?” Rafayel said, admiring the way y/n’s cute panties clung onto her cunny, he couldn’t wait more as he ripped them apart, chuckling at her small gasp while licking a small stripe along the folds of her pussy.
“That was my favorite pair..fuck..” She pouted, going back to sucking his cock as he returned the favor towards her pussy. After a few moments, y/n got off his face, straddling his cock in a quick movement, staring as he grabbed her ass, trying his hardest to not cum right there while her pussy engulfed his hard cock.
“I’ll..ah, I’ll get you more, anything you want, my muse.” He moaned, watching as their lips crashed suddenly, tongues meeting each other while their bodies followed. Hips pushing forward with such intensity that left her gripping part of his hair and embracing Rafayel’s body.
“F-faster..” She whispered, dragging the word later on with a whine as Rafayel watched with curiosity, huffing in annoyance playfully while speaking.
“And I thought you wanted to take things slow? Seems I was wrong, humans can get addicted to sex so quickly it amazes me” Y/n rolled her eyes unintentionally as he chuckled, soon enough stopping and pulling out, moaning while painting her folds white on the exterior, grinning widely. He then pulled the sheets over their sweaty, naked bodies (after briefly taking care of her that is) that were too worn out to take a shower at an ungodly hour of the next day. She pressed her body against Rafayel’s side, holding his arm while whispering
“I love you, goodnight” He didn’t have enough time for her to hear him say it back, although Rafayel pressed a small kiss onto her forehead before drifting off to a deep slumber..
It seems the curse in the legend didn’t technically occur; it broke. The merman lived a happy life with his betrothed, being able to change between a merman and human had its perks. Rafayel gifted her something no man could ever replace, not even in an afterlife. He held up a beautiful Tahitian pearl necklace so she could admire the beautiful jewelry he bought for her.
“I saw this and thought of you my muse, you should wear but the finest things in life that I will make sure to provide for so that you are well taken care of” His cheeky grin made y/n’s heart melt, she kissed him briefly and with the help of Rafayel, the Tahitian pearl necklace rested on her neck beautifully.
“You spoil me too much..not that i’d ever complain.” She laughed, oh how he loved her laugh and the way she felt comfortable around him..Rafayel was head over heels for y/n, he still couldn’t believe that, someone like her was willing to spend the rest of her life with a merman who saved her life. Not only was it because of gratitude, but merely a coincidence with fate brought them together in the end.
