Mermaid 22 and 23

 With a cheeky grin and a glint in her eye she can catch any sailor unaware.
This one saved the life of a captain during a storm. He promised her that she would be his bride. On the day he promised the maid, an outbreak of the Plague struck his ship. He quickly ordered his men to sail around the coast to where his bride waited. His Men helped him to his feet and over the side and he swam with all his strength towards her. She held him close and declared her love for his as he slipped a gold ring on her finger. With his last breath he declared his love of her and passed on with a smile.
