When′s it my turn?
Wouldn't I love /
Love to explore the shore up above?
Out of the sea /
Wish I could be
Part of that world !

" PART OF YOUR WORLD "
— the little mermaid

✧.*

HER SOUL BELONGED TO THE SEA,
BUT HER LONGING REACHED
FOR THE STARS.

✧.*

SIREN has lived in the shadows of the ocean, a prisoner beneath the waves for many decades. Once a bright young woman with dreams as vast as the sky, she was taken by HYDRA, reshaped into a weapon of myth and nightmare. Now she hunts for treasure and secrets buried deep, her voice no longer soft and sweet—but powerful, haunting, and laced with pain. Legends say her scream can drive men to madness... or worse.

She has no memories. No freedom. Only saltwater in her veins and sorrow in her ocean eyes.

STEVE ROGERS was supposed to be a symbol—hope wrapped in stars and stripes. But since waking from the ice, he's been a man out of time, caught between the hero he was and the world that moved on without him. The war may be over, but the battle never ends—the soldier must always fight on. And he has never felt so tired...

But beneath the surface of duty and valor, a question haunts him: What if the thing he's fighting for has already been lost?

When a captain broken by time is saved from drowning by a mermaid shattered by captivity, two lonely souls collide in the quiet between tides. And the ocean is no longer silent.

✧˚ · . author's note !! 🫧🐚🐬
Hi and welcome everyone! I'm Nini ♡ First of all, thank you so much for clicking on this story — it means the world to me!! English isn't my first language, so please forgive any small mistakes along the way. A lot of my lovely friends asked me to make an English version of this fic, and since the original (german version) already has around 350K views, I thought... why not share it with the rest of the world too? Maybe they'll like it as well.

This story is super close to my heart. I actually started writing it back in 2019/2020 when I was still a teen (so please be kind, haha). I've grown a lot as a writer since then, but I hope the heart of the story still shines through and brings you some joy.

I'd love to hear from you, so feel free to leave a comment! Making new friends from different countries is honestly one of the best parts of sharing this fic.

Okay, that's it from me~ enjoy my version of the little mermaid and all the adventures to come 🐚✨

Sending love,
Nini ♡

& OH COVER CREDIT — the amazing -kymopoleiia (you're a star! I love you!)

✧˚ · . spoilers ?! 🔥
Yes. Absolutely. 1000% yes. This fic follows the events of the MCU — starting around Post!Age of Ultron and going all the way to Avengers: Endgame. So if you haven't seen the movies yet and want to avoid major plot twists, heartbreaks, and heroic chaos... consider this your official SPOILER WARNING!

(But if you have seen the movies... welcome. You're in for a ride ♡)

✧˚ · . dedication!! 🦀🪼🪸
nessysstories queen_of_ketterdam
thank you both for always showering me with motivation (seriously, you're the best). And of course, to every single reader who's supported me along the way: thank you for your kind comments that never fail to make me smile, and for the little stars/votes you've given to my stories — they mean more to me than you know. I hope you'll enjoy this fanfic just as much, and now... happy reading!! 🫶💫
