{EXCERPT}
From The Little Monster by Jennifer Ellision
"Wait!" The little human lurched forward, a single hand outstretched, the other anchored firmly to the ship's railing. It swallowed as the little monster raised a brow to her. The hand fell lamely back to her side.
“I... don't even know your name.”
“Name?”
"What are you called?"
"I don't understand." What was she called? She was a predator, a hunter, a Mordgris, a...
"I am a monster," she said simply.
“You're all monsters,” the human breathed. “But you're not quite like the rest. How am I to call you and you alone?”
Her. Alone.
A thrill spiked through the little monster. Why hadn’t she thought of this before? She deserved her own name. She was the best of her kind. There was nothing in the sea that could best her except, perhaps, the sea itself. And that made choosing a name simple.
"You may call me Mara," she said.
“Mara,” the human repeated slowly. “Mara… for the sea?”
Another thrill surged within her as she nodded, knowing the word belonged only to her. The little human had understood the meaning instantly. In a way that prey was not meant to understand its hunter.
“I am Amista,” she said, lifting her full lower scales to cross the bottoms of her fins and bob on deck. “And it has been a pleasure to meet you, Mara.”
Mara dove back into the cool embrace of the sea, feeling Amista's eyes on her back as she swam away.
The little monster had become Mara.
The little human had become Amista.
And that was the beginning and end of everything as they knew it.
