In the shimmering depths of the marine world, a mermaid named Laura, who served the Marine Queen, Octopus Libra, discovers a well-kept secret. This revelation comes after eavesdropping on the queen's conversation in her isolated room. Among the secrets Laura uncovers is the existence of the "Ugly fire 7" necklace, one of seven necklaces with unique powers and curses. Driven by despair, Laura steals the necklace to transform her newborn baby into a human being, unknowingly cursing her own lineage for seven generations.

On land, the baby, named Amor, grows up and experiences her first love triangle with Philips and Liam. However, her happiness is short-lived, as Amor loses her virginity to Liam in a moment of weakness and guilt consumes her. Torn between her love for Philips and her actions with Liam, she feels conflicted about her future.

As Amor struggles with her love life, Laura's ghost appears to her in the form of Amor's twin. The haunting presence reveals the truth about the marine world and her true parents. Laura's ghost then guides Amor to the sea to discover her true identity as a mermaid.

With her mother's guidance, Amor learns to embrace her newfound powers and sets out to change the fate of her people. She fights for the marine world's freedom, taking on the powerful Gideon. As they engage in a battle for the future, Amor and her mother's ghost work together to outsmart their foe.

Amor ultimately manages to steal the Ugly fire 5 necklace, which holds the wisdom of human beings. To free the mermaids and mermans, she is left with a single option: to cut off the Marine Queen's head and wear the necklace around it.

Amor embraces her destiny, and the marine world transforms as the Ugly fire spell dissipates. With her true identity unveiled, Amor takes the hand of her new husband, Liam, and begins a new chapter in their lives.

Although her journey is marked by sacrifice and heartbreak, Amor ultimately finds happiness and learns to love Liam. Meanwhile, Philips and Aaliyah live their own blissful lives, creating a world where love, compassion, and truth prevail for everyone.
