The Merrow regarded her image in the cracked looking glass.Razor sharp teeth smiled back.Long briney hair a tangle.
The locket she had taken from Jimmy lay open revealing a woman with Auburn hair and cream skin.She stared at the humans beauty curiously then returned to her own reflection.
The sound of shattering glass echoed around the dark walls.
Waves thundered against the rocks of her underground cavern in explosions of foam and spray.
Jimmys teeth dangled pleasingly from an old fishing line. He had lasted the longest but like the rest the fire had died in his eyes.
Scales she had shed that day shone in the half light.Surrounded by bone and net,keen eyes spy a crab scuttling back to its salty home. Clawed fingers grab,teeth crunch.It does not fill the void
A light appears through the jagged arch splitting the gloomy day.Last catch before supper.Slipping into the inky water , she goes in search for another warm blooded love.
