Mated To The Cursed Sea King

Planning To Drown

Velmar is a city located by the sea and yet its trade and commerce thrive immensely. The sea itself is the main reason behind this prosperity. The marine fish found here are special. These rare species ain’t commonly found anywhere else. The city is surrounded by stone-paved coastal roads, small houses and a bustling port.

The architecture of the city is a blend of ancient stone and concrete. Lanterns light brightly in the heart of the city and at night, the salty scent of the sea drifts through the air. The port is the lifeline of Velmar. The ships arrive and depart endlessly. The people of the city live quietly because the very name Adrian Carter and his mafia sends fear through their veins. Velmar is a place where beauty, mystery and terror coexist.

Adrian stood on the balcony of the palace’s master bedroom. Rose lies unconscious on the bed. He had been with her for a long time but being close to her triggered strange reactions within him. His eye color changes repeatedly. His skin tone shifts unnaturally. It deeply unsettles him.

‘Who are you Rose?’

This question tormented him relentlessly.

Before him stretched the vast sea. The salty scent thick in the air. His hair brushed his shoulders. His bare upper body gleamed under the moonlight. Every line of his body, every muscle, every shadow stood out under the night sky. Though the sea appeared calm Adrian’s mind was anything but. As soon as his inner turmoil reached the ocean, the waves rose, the wind grew stronger and the clouds gathered. The sea mirrored his agitation.

Adrian knows why this happens. Whenever his mind becomes restless, the sea responds.

He looked up at the sky and exhaled deeply. No matter how powerful he is in this vast city, his life remains different. More mysterious than lonely. And now, an unfamiliar girl has entered his life.

Rose. As beautiful as her name.

Since reaching adulthood, many women had come close to Adrian yet he had never felt anything when touching them. He once thought something inside him was broken. Eventually, he stopped thinking about it altogether. Because the moment he came of age, his life changed completely. The supernatural power he carried since childhood multiplied thousands of times. Water and land alike bowed to his dominance. After countless battles, he emerged victorious. From that moment on, Velmar knew him as Mafia King Adrian Carter. But no one knows his power.

When Rose regained consciousness and saw her condition, she burst into uncontrollable crying. She never imagined her life could be shattered so suddenly. Life always strikes where one least expects it.

She cried relentlessly. Hatred toward herself consumed her. Looking at her body made her suffocate. The filthy touch of a mafia man stained her skin visible through the wounds scattered across her body. She felt disgust, helplessness, despair. Her body no longer felt like her own.

Her father’s face kept flashing before her eyes and with each memory, her chest tightened in agony.

‘What will I do with this life?’

The question echoed endlessly in her mind.

She scanned the room desperately, searching for something sharp. Today, she had decided. Either she would kill Adrian or she would die. But no matter how thoroughly she searched, she found no weapon. It was as if fate refused to let her lose or to let her live.

She was trapped in a cruel situation.

Suddenly, she heard the gentle murmur of the sea. Slowly, she rose from the bed. Though darkness clouded her vision the rhythm of the waves was clear. Step by step, she moved toward the balcony. Then she saw it.

The sea lay right beside the palace stretching endlessly before her.

Rose froze in shock.

‘Why would a palace stand at such a dangerous boundary?’

She didn’t know. But she didn’t think further. Gathering her courage, she moved forward, her gaze fixed on the ocean. The cold stone beneath her feet, the salty air, everything felt hauntingly surreal.

“I’ll drown myself.” she murmured.

Step by step, she walked towards the sea until she saw Adrian. She was startled. Then rage overtook her.

“Rose? Why are you staring like that?”

His calm voice, his feigned ignorance only fueled her fury. She lunged forward and grabbed his throat. She was grabbing his neck with all her strength.
