Secretly Married to the King of Atlantis

Aria was born into a noble house that had already picked out her future. She married Lysios anyway, a fisherman the whole coast laughed at, and she did not know he was the missing heir to the throne of Atlantis. He disappeared five years into the marriage. Her family did not take her back. She was called a liar and a fool, she was beaten, and she raised the twins she had borne him on her own while the people who had warned her enjoyed being right. The children were not ordinary; something in their blood came from the sea, and the people who wanted Aria's line ended knew it. They took the twins to the water to give them to it as an offering. The ocean did not stay flat. Lysios came back holding the golden trident, and the sea rose behind him with everything it had been holding for five years.
