But when she rescues an injured sailor and agrees to care for him while he heals, she finds her assumption, and her outlook, challenged at every turn.
In an effort to repay her kindness, Argider offers to repair Esma's cabin, which has fallen into disrepair.

Drown My Soul in Sensory Pleasure (Sassy Mermaid/Female Pirate Captain (F/F) | 7,828 words | rated E for explicit sexual content) - It had long been considered a pirate's death wish to seek out the treasure of Captain Gullbasher Finch, whose ship disappeared off the coast of an island he had freshly plundered, but Captain Ravosa is up to the challenge. Hearing that sirens attacked the last crew who went in search of the treasure, Capt. Ravosa presses forward, confident that she can resist the sirens' charms.
When she arrives at the island, however, she finds no sirens, but instead, a mermaid named Ipthia, who is willing to exchange her share of the treasure for three things from Capt. Ravosa daily: a story, an item, and the chance to explore her body. Capt. Ravosa agrees, believing that by focusing on the treasure, she will be immune to Ipthia's charm and curiosity. But perhaps the good captain is overestimating her self-control.
