A dying woman becomes a half-blood mermaid nanny to royal cubs, facing erasure if they die.
After a cancer diagnosis, Mira wakes as a half-blood mermaid with six months to live. The merman king employs her to raise his two royal cubs, imposing a fatal rule: her existence ends if either child perishes. She introduces modern child-rearing techniques that protect the princes and stops a hazardous ritual. A growing bond with the king develops alongside a coup attempt and a monstrous beast menacing the Six Seas, drawing Mira and the cubs into a fight for survival.
