He told me to go into the water and dance for my new love. After I drowned, he cried again: I just wanted to make you jealous.

To amuse his new mistress, Damon ordered me, pregnant and exhausted, to dance in the water for his entertainment.

When I finally dragged myself out, gasping for air, his mistress took one look at me and started gagging.

"Your Majesty, I’m with child. I can’t stand the smell of fish."

It was only because I was a Merfolk princess that my legs transformed into a shimmering tail in the water.

Damon exploded with rage. He had me locked in a crystal cage and sunk deep underwater, forbidding anyone from opening it without his permission.
