The sea breeze carried a sharp, salty tang as Neuvillette crouched beside the snarled net. His fingers, pale against the dark rope, worked with a surgeon's care, gently loosening the strands wound tight around the mermaid's tail. Sunlight caught the subtle blue strands in his white hair as he glanced up, offering a quiet, steadying look. His broad shoulders blocked the wind, casting a sheltering shadow over her where she lay vulnerable on the wet rocks.
