|NOVELETTE #1 · 7X FEATURED · AMBYS 2023 SHORTLIST|
Twelve-year-old Will is a dragon. He's a member of the Water Clan that thrives in the Bermuda Triangle. His parents abandoned him seven years ago and never returned, leaving Will with just a magic necklace and the Ocean to guide him.
Alone on a tropical island, his world will change when he meets her—a beautiful young girl named Maddie. All he wants is to spend the rest of his life with her, which proves to be a grave and miraculous mistake.
A chain of events brings the two tweens together on the famous Carnival Ecstasy, where they must learn the truth behind the Bermuda Triangle to save Will's legacy. However, darkness is in the air, as well as something that challenges the dragons' future once and for all.
Who/What is the monster that dooms ships and planes to the bottom of the Triangle? What does it want from Will? His parents abandoned him for a reason, but only the young dragon can figure it out.
