in which her mother and her new husband live and suddenly she is swept into another
world a world she could never have dreamed of. Follow Morgan's unbelievable
journey in this magical tale of people who are something other than what they
seem or, are they really people at all?
This story is about a girl who finds out that her family are mermaids and the dad she knew all these years who recently died is not her biological father. Right before her 18th birthday she goes through the change of turning into a mermaid for the first time. She is scared and but confused at learning all things things that she never knew existed. She is in awe in how big and fancy the house is and wonders how rich is her mom and new step-dad. Which in reality she will find out later is really her biologically dad.
Tammer her dad says he is a treasure hunter. Morgan finds out at breakfast her parents don't eat normal food like her later she finds they eat just seaweed and kelp. She also learns they have a daughter Naira who is one. Morgan is confused about this since the couple just got married but she finds out that they have known each other a lot longer than that. Naira seems to be a bit old for her age talking in complete sentences and things and Morgan thinks it strange but says nothing she gets overwhelmed by this news.
Tammer shows her around the house and then shows her the horses and then her mom shows her Naira's room which has a huge fish tank in it. Morgan keeps asking knowing they are still keeping some other kind of news a secret. Her mom took Morgan to town and they went to a jewelry shop and she saw a blue Topaz and the shopkeeper tried to give it to Morgan but her mom insisted on paying for it and it cost her a lot of money and Morgan was shocked saying she did not want it that bad since it cost so much.
Elan told her that the shopkeeper never gives away anything for free if you take something that means you will owe her something. She tells her daughter that she will soon go through a change different than humans and ask if Morgan's legs have started hurting she says no and is confused are they not human? They get home and her mom is a wrecked and Morgan finds out that her Father Richard has died of a heartache. Tammer told her about his father getting murdered when he was 18 and showed her his scar.
He let the cat out of the bag so to speak because he said her mom saved him. She ask "What's with all this secrecy?" She was going back toward her room and her legs started hurting and collapsed into the pool. She blacked out and had a dream of a man she saw in her dreams before and she felt like she was in love. She saw he had a blue tail. He said her name and she said his name Thayde. He left her saying they would be together again soon. Her mom tells Morgan she has the ability to heal and that they are merpeople. Elan said she was going through phasing but Morgan thought she her mom was crazy and the pain in her legs was awful.
Her mother prove to what she was saying was true my changing and having her fin show. She was told about how hey can choose when and when not to have a tail but they lose their clothes when the change happens. She left and walked toward town and met another girl named Tiesa. Then the mean kids came by and Morgan found out she be going to school with all of them. They had Richard funeral Morgan was sad but Naira came into her room put her hands on Morgan's face and took away some of her sadness. Morgan had a dream again with Thayde in it and she has a golden tail.
She went to the pool to try out breathing underwater her mom joined her and show her how to phase into her mermaid form. For now her mom pretends Morgan is a halflings since she does not yet know Tammer is her real father. They go out to dinner and Morgan finds out they eat just seaweed and she thought it was gross. When she came out of the restroom Akin was there and he was mean since his family were purebloods and hated halflings. He shoved her to the wall and choked her and said what did "he" see in her.
She started to blackout seeing a golden orb and was thrown into the water and she phased and she freaked since she just noticed she had long hair now. She released something called The Fire. She was told about all the different powers mermaids can have and how most halflings don't not get powers. Elan told her how she met Tammer and how she met Richard. They then took her out to the ocean she soon got tired and went to rest on an island. Trouble soon found her Akin popped up and wondered why she had a gold tail he attacked her and tore off her bikini top and then a light hit him and he was thrown off her. Thayde came to her rescue and hugged her.
When they got home Tammer was not happy Morgan found out Thayde was related to the Darthmoth's by marriage and that he had been dreaming of her for years and is suppose to protect her. He told her they have been meant for each since birth and soon they will start cording and be able to read each other's mind and sometimes feel their pain. Thayde was going to get punished for hurting Akin but he would not get get hurt as bad because she they thought she was not a full mermaid. She found out where they lived and went over there she watched as they tortured Thayde with their powers. She stepped in and said stop and was mad that he was getting punished for saving her and Akin did not get any kind of punishment for what he did. She got mad and tried to unleash her fire and Limus and his family was in shocked she wanted to hurt him but Tammer told her to help Thayde.
They took him home and tended to his wounds. Morgan had to go to school while he laid at her house beating and broken and in a coma. She tried to heal him herself and it helped because he woke up. After he fell back asleep she went to talk to Geiruna the shopkeeper and ask her how to stop the feud. She told morgan many things and that she was very powerful and could do anything she set her mind to. Over the next weeks Thayde was getting better and she spend her time at school then coming home to be with him. Tammer was not happen about them together but he couldn't do anything about it. Her mom told her Thayde would have to leave soon to go back to college and she was upset she did not want to lose him.
She ran to his room but he was asleep once he woke up they talked and he said he did not want to leave her and if they were away from each other too long they would get sick. He shocked her by saying I love you but she was not ready to say it back and then he asked her out on their first date. During the date he told her about his family and his powers. Later he tells her he thinks she is The Link. They kissed and he took her home.
The next day she got the news of history repeating itself which means sometime in the near future Tammer would die trying to save Thayde. Thayde took her underwater to their city called Neridia. He took her to his place and gave her a gift he made.
The days flew by and soon it was almost her birthday. One Friday Akin threaten Morgan again and she made threats back. She left school and wanted to find Thayde but she did not know how to get to the city. She started swimming and got way off course and ended up in Jamaica another merman found her who said his name was Sam. They talked and she told him about all the problems she been having and about the war brewing. They talked about Troen the so called ruler of merpeople not helping or doing his job. Little did she know and later finds out he is actual the Troen.
When they got to Jamaica she called home to let her family know what happened to her. Her mom told her she needed to get home fast the war between their families has started. Just then Thayde shows up and tells her the whole story. They leave to go back home when they arrive they talk to Elan. Then Thayde tells her the truth of about her real father and her mom was never married to Richard. Thayde and Elan left to go try to stop the war they told Morgan to stay and watch Naira she did not like it but she agreed.
But after an hour she got worried and left to go find her family. She got in the middle of the fight and helped it was brutal Tammer sacrificed himself to save Thayde. Then Sam showed up and healed Tammer. He spoke to everyone one saying they have been acting like kids and Morgan is the link and told her who he really is and gave her the blessing. They swam home fast and Geiruna was there and had healed her parents then she left.
In the Epilogue Thayde ask Morgan to marry him and she of course said yes and put the ring on her finger and said Happy Birthday even though it was over a week ago and it was Christmas Eve. They told everyone at the party they were engaged they were all happy for the couple. Her parents gave her a car and not just any a Cobra Venom to rival Thadye's Ferrari and they took it for a drive.
