Summary
Zoey Choi and Kang Mira, students of Marine Biology and Marine Archaeology, respectively, earn the opportunity of a lifetime as interns for an expedition to Jeju Island. They are entrenched in the island's unique cultures and traditions, and with luck, their studies will help to preserve them for future generations.
But a diving accident puts the girls face-to-face with a living, breathing fiction that shakes their realities: a mermaid. Soon, they come to learn that secrets persist around Jeju just as stubbornly as the islanders' traditions, and they have unwittingly been drawn into a fragile web of deception and mysticism that runs deeper than they ever could have imagined.
And in the middle of the hurricane of questions they have, seated directly in the eye, is a mermaid with jagged purple patterns.

Summary
In a world ripped apart by a magical calamity, Phae Seabridge is invited to a lonely castle on an isolated island and asked to birth an heir for a dying bloodline. Everything has been arranged by the owner of the castle, a mysterious woman known Keeper Alida.
Alida insists that Phae is the only person who can help her keep the lineage alive. If she does this, all of Phae’s family debts will be paid for good, and she can live the rest of her life in comfort and peace. But the real cost of accepting this deal might be too high a price for anyone to pay, as Phae learns.
Because the baby she’s meant to carry? It isn’t human.

Summary
There was a princess.
There is a beast.
Nine years after Honmoon Palace fell to a mysterious foe, Kang Mira and Choi Zoey live under the ruthless thumb of the Kang merchant family risen to power with the absence of the ruling Ryu Clan. Zoey, the sweet half-blooded outsider, and Mira, the headstrong and wayward daughter of the Kangs, escape Honmoon Village in fire and blood to leave behind the cold venom of cruel words and coerced obligations. They flee for the ruins of Honmoon Palace, hoping the tales of ghosts and other unearthly creatures will be enough to deter their angry pursuers.
They don't expect the rumours to hold a grain of truth in them. A terrifying beast roams the palace grounds—the very one alleged to have brought an end to the Ryu line—but it doesn't attack or chase them away. Surrounded by strange magic and a cagey beast, Zoey and Mira plot their next move and ready to leave.
And the Beast will let them. She must.
For who could ever love a beast?
Based on Disney's Beauty and the Beast (1991). Updates every Sunday!

Summary
When Mira says something she maybe (definitely) shouldn't in the throes of passion, it leads to a surprising confession from Rumi. Rumi, who can and does come. Rumi, who can and does come only when she is alone and at her own hand...and who would like to be able to eventually come with her girlfriends and under their tender (and enthusiastic) attention.
//
The rest of Rumi's words are lost in a mumble.
'What was that?'
'She said,' Zoey translates again, seeming delighted to be the conveyor of good news, 'that it was fine! When you asked her to come inside of you,' she adds, in case Mira had forgotten.
She hadn't.
And neither had the rest of her body, which gives another delicious full-body shiver at the thought.

Summary
She'd never seen anything like it before. Not even in her research. She’s waited for it to resurface ever since, so she could get a better look, but it never showed itself again. Since then, she's noticed a few other oddities around the cove. A large purple iridescent scale, some long, sharp shed claws, and even odd scuff marks along the shore… like something had beached itself before returning to the water.
Zoey guessed that it could be an undiscovered species. So that was what her dissertation would be about! Whatever this thing is, Zoey is going to be the first one to discover it! It would do wonders for her career if she could name a new animal after herself.
