The deep ocean churns with a new, urgent heat. Panic grips a mermaid as her tail thrashes against the pressure of a first, overwhelming need. Concealed within coral shadows, she watches Sergeant Carter Vale, a stoic sniper encased in tactical gear. A sudden surge of lust makes her tail strike the reef; Carter turns, his blue eyes widening behind his mask at the sight of her exposed, glowing form. Instinct takes command. She swims straight for him. He raises his rifle, but her tail coils around his waist. Pressing her entire body flush against his, she drags the stunned soldier down into the waiting abyss, his garbled shouts lost in the weight of the water.
