Summary

She mocked a god during her own sacrifice. He hasn't stopped answering since. Rennara Velgrave was meant to vanish beneath the waves-just another noble daughter silenced by tradition and superstition. Disguised aboard a cursed pirate vessel, her rebellion sparks panic when her true identity is revealed. Women aboard are forbidden unless offered to the Drowned Saint. But when her blood touches sacred waters, something stirs. He rises. Not to consume her-but to claim her. Refusing the ritual, the Drowned Saint names Rennara his "chosen," a title she mocks even as strange magic begins to answer her voice. Storms blow in when she curses. The crew begins to worship her. And the god-quiet, gorgeous, unnervingly possessive-grows jealous of every mortal who kneels at her feet. As power coils around her and old myths awaken, Rennara must decide what kind of legend she wants to become: a figurehead, a storm, or something the sea never expected.

Dedication

For my favorite mortal

Who quietly competes with sea gods for my attention and somehow wins. You understood the bite behind my words and never asked me to soften. That’s why I keep writing you in, even when you don’t know it.

Who tolerates the fictional rivals I’ve written with suspicious jawlines and god complexes. You never minded being second to the ink-soaked chaos, and that’s probably why I trust you not to drown.

Thank you for supporting my every salty tangent and reading my spicy chapters like a seasoned hunter. It means more than all the sea gods I’ve summoned, dragons I’ve tamed, or brooding Winchesters I’ve paused for.

Let Andrea Duke know what you thought about this chapter!
