I have made the difficult decision to remove any of my writings which sexualized minors, which is nearly all of them. While I truly believe that sex fantasy exists separate from reality, I became struck with the horror that my work may have been used to groom, glorify, or otherwise encourage the abuse of real-life innocents, and so have chosen to expunge any such content that would unintentionally contribute to said harm. 

Though it pains me, I am unable to continue working on Marina by the Sea or my other unfinished works for this reason, but have left a succinct summary below of the ending for all those who are keen to learn how her story resolves. 

My apologies to loyal fans who have been patient with my slow updates over the years. Please know that I do not make this decision lightly and share your frustrations.

Summarized Ending:

The next chapter saw Marina parting ways with her crush she re-met at the beach. Dad spends a lot of time and energy filling the hole in her heart with hugs and kisses. The whole rest of the day is spent playing and teaching the girl bodysurfing to cheer her up. They eat ice cream, watch the sun set, and review all they've done.

Marina reveals one unvisited attraction she learned about from Jonah- the natural caves down in the cliffs. They resolve to explore and camp out there for their last night. A minor earthquake and resulting cave-in of the entrance traps them, and Dad recieves minor injuries while shielding her from debris with his own body. They have a long heart-to-heart.

Marina reveals why she's been trying so hard to seduce her father: Mom and step-dad are pregnant, and house-shopping out-of-state hundreds of miles away! Rina has long intrinsically known that Dad is pretty much a sex­ addict, and sought to become more "valuable" in his eyes, in hopes that he would fight harder to keep his visitation or even expanded custody. The more she explored her sexuality, the more she found she loved it- and felt she was falling in love with her Daddy and wants to be his girlfriend.

She's now conflicted because a boy her own ages is giving her attention.

Dad admits he is not boyfriend material. He's selfish and short-sighted, and pretty much a serial adulterer- the divorce was entirely his fault. Marina is initially shocked, but quickly forgiving.

She had never suspected such a past because Dad is so attentive and focused on her. They kiss and cry and cuddle and comfort one another while waiting for rescue. They eventually succumb to their desires and attractions, and Marina has her first time in very strange but memorable circumstances.

Finally pulled from the rubble, father and daughter make the news. Dad is treated, and they get one day together in the privacy of his apartment before mom gets back from her honeymoon. Marathon naughtiness ensues, much more comfortably than in a cave.

Mom is immensely relieved, and mildly impressed by Dad's scars from protecting their daughter.

That level of selflessness was totally unexpected. She explains that she is indeed expecting, but Marina misunderstood their home shopping.

Moving that far away was never a real consideration. Mom agrees that Marina is very grown up now, and should be able to have some say in where she lives- which will be mostly Dad.

Dad agrees to find a bigger place with a spare bedroom for Rina. They plot all of this in secret as a surprise for their kid, and Dad keeps his weekends for the time being.

It takes a few weeks to bring together, and Marina and her Dad enjoy their weekends together with wild abandon.

The day everything is finalized comes, and Dad takes her on one last mini-vacation before Summer is over- a promised stargazing trip to see the Perseid meteor shower. He presents Marina with a phone as an early birthday present and discloses their future together- with one disappointment. Dad resolves that if they're going to begin to live together properly as a parent and child, they will stop sleeping together. Marina has never felt closer or more loved by Dad than in the last few weeks, so this is devastating. She bargains for one last indulgence, and Dad agrees. And then again.

Marina demands her fill until she is sated since it will have to last the rest of her life. Unable to ever refuse his girl, he loves her again and again through the night under the shooting stars.

Exhausted, they return home without the girl ever having claimed satisfaction. The never speak of it again.

They gradually adapt to their new lifestyle, trying to feel out their new-old relationship. Marina is finally, sadly, too big to sit in Dad's lap anymore because of the desires it stirs in both parties.

School resumes, and Marina loves it. Visitation has essentially been reversed, and Mom uses the weekends to get to know the young woman her daughter has become.

Some time much later, we find father and daughter exiting a movie theater. By now Marina has a half-brother- and a boyfriend in Jonah, who is with them. Dad is dating again himself (though presently single), and doing it for love instead of hookups. The young couple have been dating mostly long-distance. Dad has been driving her to, and chaperoning dates once a month. Rina and her father have never been closer: she trusts Dad deeply enough to be open about her experiences, and still comes to him for advice. Jonah slips away during one of the chaperoned dates and Marina starts a discreet conversation with her Dad. Now 13, and as insatiable as her parent, she wants to go all the way with her boyfriend for their anniversary.

Dad urges her to be careful, but to have fun, trusting Marina enough to be smart about sex.

Dad fondly regards his child's growth into a beautiful young woman. He is a bit sad to let her go, but overwhelmed with pride at her maturity, intelligence, and strong character. Rina is practically an adult already. He fondly reminisces about their intimacy, honored and humbled to have loved her in such a way, but satisfied that he made the right choice. In distancing himself, they both had room to grow.

The end.
