Summary
Alastor makes his living through investments, the trade market, forging deals with powerful people and selling goods. On a warm summer's day, he stumbles on a rare mermaid who has been caught by sailors and is now waiting to be auctioned. He's gorgeous; his tail a stark, vivid red more enrapturing than a blood moon with pearly white fins adorning it from the sides like ethereal ghosts; even beaten down the fervid fire in his eyes burns into Alastor's very soul. Unable to tear his gaze away, Alastor buys him. Dealing with mermaids was a dangerous job, one Alastor was well versed in, never having had any proclivity for love or sex which is how he had earned his great success, fortune and reputation. No mermaid can tempt him to his demise with their song.
He could never have known that with this one decision his entire life would be flipped. Feelings that have always lurked beneath the surface arise as an old friend gets pulled into the scheme.
