Something monstrous is happening to little Leo. Strange glowing golden scales keep bursting through his skin. His human organs are failing fast, and every day brings him closer to death. Medical science cannot explain his bizarre sickness, and he is given just three months to live. Six years ago, Sienna worked as a hotel waitress. She stumbled onto Dante, a powerful heir trapped by enemies’ poison. That single explosive night bound their fates together. Sienna left without a word, unaware she carried his half‑merman child. When Leo’s cursed supernatural heritage begins destroying his body, Sienna embarks on a desperate quest for his father. But dark secrets wait for her. Dante’s pure‑blood merman clan despises mixed‑blood offspring. The cruel Valentina wields huge power inside the family, and she will lock the child away, or kill him, to protect their ancient bloodline’s reputation. Dante is torn apart. He hides his own merman identity from the human world. Now he must choose between his brutal clan rules and the mother and dying son he never got to know. Can he defy his family, unleash his forbidden ocean power, and fight to give them a chance to survive?
