The Ocean's Deep

Nerissa is a marine biologist down on her luck. She can't seem to find a job in her field no matter what she does. So she's working as a clerk at a local grocery store and makes jewelry out of found objects on Etsy as a side gig. But one day while out hunting for shells and coral and other such things on the beach for her jewelry, she stumbles across a beast of a creature, and even more shocking, the creature is the fabled monster that lives in the town's bay. But upon closer inspection she sees that it's injured. She helps tend to its injuries and learns that it, is a he, and his name is Fenrir. The two talk and he explains to her that he came afoul of a fishing vessel and that is how he got injured. 

A friendship soon sparks between Nerissa and Fenrir and they two find themselves drawn each other. But little does Nerissa know, she has attracted the eye of an extremely jealous siren who has been in love with Fenrir for centuries. And now she's found herself in the crosshairs and soon finds herself cursed because of it as well. But she is determined to help Fenrir break his own curse and live a semblance of a normal life, but it seems that Carina is hell bent on making sure that that does not happen.
