Open Mic Night
The hotel wasn’t as luxurious as Dawn thought it would be. Overall, he would rate the management rather sloppy for the price paid. However, it made sense why these suspicious guests chose it. The security was poor, and everyone turned a blind eye to extra work unless necessary—the perfect place for the shadiest of dealings.
“We have some time to rest in the room before dinner,” Dawn explained to Aqua. “I’ll be doing some preparatory work to see where the guests are and figure a way to make contact with one of them for questioning.”Aqua hummed and looked at the clothes Dawn bought for her to change into for the fancy dinner. The dress was very pretty, and it was probably the first time she had worn a gown that showed this much skin. The shoes came with heels, much to her delight, and she couldn’t wait to show off her ability to balance in them.While Aqua showered, delighted with the new bath salts, Dawn borrowed JerichoRelated chapters
Dear Don Awakened Voice
Although the food was appetising, Aqua didn’t eat much. Her stomach kept turning like waves when she thought about what would happen after dinner. She barely touched her shrimp salad until Dawn reached over the table to touch her hand.Without words, he poured his feelings through their connection, and Aqua blushed. The waitress earlier that day said that such a thing wasn’t common between family members. Now that she thought about it, they did many things normal family members wouldn’t usually do. Did it mean that Dawn liked her more than a family member? However, she remembered him promising they would always be together as a family. Human dynamics were confusing!“We don’t want to be late for the show,” he reminded her gently, prompting Aqua to pick up the fork. The giddy mermaid nodded and started munching mechanically.They finished the meal in twenty minutes, and Aqua thought they would leave when Dawn ordered dessert.
Dear Don Free Gift
It wasn’t difficult to snag the master key card for rooms. The room attendants weren’t working, and the master card was left unattended. Jericho would help him to replace the camera footage later. Thankfully, he found the access card easily. Searching and flirting with giddy housekeepers would send Aqua into another pouting session. Even if it were effective, Dawn would only do that if it was the last resort.Prepared for confrontation, Dawn took advantage of the free room and resources, draping the male room attendant’s uniform over his suit but keeping his side arm within reach. The pistol had a silencer, but it would still cause quite a commotion if he fired it carelessly. Bloodstains were difficult to remove, and Dawn wanted to avoid that as much as possible. Thankfully, the room attendant’s uniform was black.As he already knew the rooms those guests booked, Dawn froze the camera recording for the floor while taking the elevator. At the same ti
Dear Don The Rainbow Heart Scale’s Power
It glowed brightly like sunlight through a prism and turned warm on her chest. Aqua watched as Dawn fell into a trance-like state when she spoke to him with uncontrolled emotions. The colourful heart scale was usually hidden beneath the shirt. However, it sparkled briefly when feeding on the mermaid’s feelings. The bubbling sensation from Aqua’s stomach rose to her throat whenever she was ready to awaken her hypnotic voice. It did not take the smart mermaid long to learn how to recognise signs of her powers to control it.“How was it?” Dawn asked, feeling dazed as he came back to reality. The illusion that Aqua painted with her song was so vivid that it could be addicting if she did not go easy on him.After testing her newly found ability for the fifth time, Aqua finally understood how it worked. Her mother left too early to explain fully how her awakened voice worked, so Dawn offered to become her test subject.“I think I know how to co
Dear Don Part-Time Work
For weeks after the evidence Dawn handed to Jim, there was no news from the elusive man. Without a way to contact the FBI information head, Dawn could only rely on Jericho’s weak connections to learn more about what was happening to Ricardo’s turf war.Aqua’s cooking repertoire drastically improved as her command of language improved. Her determination to learn mathematics helped her modify recipe portions. Jericho no longer needed to babysit Aqua whenever Dawn left for work now that she could walk without difficulty. It took Aqua a few months to get accustomed to the human lifestyle, and the sacrifice of her tail at night became undoubtedly useful.“What do you mean?” Dawn watched his tone carefully.He’d returned home to a delicious meal of pasta with fried fish when Aqua broke the news to him. The mermaid used to be so meek before. Now, she was brimming with confidence. Instead of seeking his permission to do things, she was mere
Dear Don Last Name
Beep!Dawn checked his phone. He had a meeting in five minutes. However, the man had become more distracted ever since Aqua started working. Although her work did not start until evening, the CEO of a newly founded company couldn’t help but check every text he had. Aqua woke up later than usual in the morning. If Dawn were honest, he missed those little morning hugs and kisses. He could barely afford the time to see her in the afternoon after work started piling up. While he continued to look forward to the little lunch boxes she prepared for him, microwaved meals tasted different from freshly cooked ones.The only things keeping him from not reporting to his lonely office were those midday texts Aqua would send him once she woke up. The mermaid was adjusting to the human lifestyle rather quickly. Apart from new moon night transformations, the blonde beauty appeared no different from other humans. Her mannerisms might be a tad awkward, but most people would think of
Dear Don First Million
The small velvet box weighed heavier with each passing day. Dawn David did not know how much of a wuss he truly was until he had someone he truly cared about in his life. The discovery gave him more insight into the kind of man his father was and how his late dad felt about his mother.The night he thought he would tell Aqua about his true feelings, the words wouldn’t come out of his throat. He only showed her the new identity cards and passports, pointing at their similar last names. Aqua was too overwhelmed with happiness at earning her human rights, ironically enough. Dawn procrastinated to act on his feelings and convinced himself there would be another opportunity. The joy on Aqua’s face was enough for that night.Then, Aqua and Jericho informed Dawn about Aqua’s desire to further herself in employment. She was an amazing kitchen assistant, and even the customers praised her recipe. Despite her lack of formal education, Jericho wanted to promote her
Dear Don Missed Text
It happened. As soon as Gordon secured the new deal with that pharmaceutical company, Dawn’s business phone blew up with congratulatory messages, all wanting to interview the elusive businessman. After his net worth doubled in a few hours, he was the hottest man in town. Jenny and Gordon couldn’t stop the persistent press from camping outside the office building. Thankfully, security was tight, and Dawn managed to escape, driving off in his tinted sedan. He had never been happier about the real estate investment in this city. Even if those news reporters gave chase, they couldn’t enter the tightly secured luxury condominium many other highly-profiled individuals lived in.It was four in the afternoon when he arrived at the penthouse. Aqua was studying the ingredients in the fridge when the door opened. She looked surprised at the time as Dawn dashed in with a radiant grin.“Come on,” he smirked. “Let’s go on a date. I reserved a ro
Dear Don Aqua Fights Back
Aqua was cooking up a storm in the kitchen for her VVIP guest, due to arrive in an hour. At first, nobody knew who this VVIP guest was and why the special order seemed so home-cooked. However, the smarter ones put two and two together after Jericho informed the kitchen crew how Aqua would spend an hour or two away from the kitchen during the dinner rush.“So this is why you were wearing rouge the whole time!” the snarkiest part-timer sidled up to Aqua with a hushed whisper. “Didn’t peg you for that sort of woman. How much pocket money does he pay you? Do you think he’d like brunettes like me?”Aqua didn’t like the new part-timer. Neither did the chef nor anyone in the kitchen crew. The service, security staff and special staff hated her because she constantly got in the way of everyone’s jobs. However, nobody bothered entertaining her. Jericho made it very clear this detestable part-timer was here for personal reasons but not
