I held my breath, trying my best not to make a noise that would attract Gary. But the last thing I wished to see then happened.As Gary's gaze swept across to the corner where Dicken and I were, he suddenly stopped moving his gaze and stared at us. His facial expression switched in an instant. Gary was filled with rage, and his face turned blue in anger. He then clenched his fist so tightly that the veins on his arm were visibly seen, and the sound of his cracking bones could be heard. In contrast to Gary's anger, Dicken was calm. He didn't seem to see Gary was staring from behind. Dicken continued to hold my waist with his webbed claws and lick my neck erotically with his long, wet tongue as if nobody else was around. He even made a loud drooling sound on purpose! He was retaliating against Gary for provoking him on the deck before. He wanted to prove to Gary that I was Dicken’s, that I was indeed his mate. At that moment, I felt like Dicken was nothing but an ordinary beast, jus
I quickly got up from behind Dicken and stood between them regardless of my loosened clothes. I pretended to sound calm and said, “Hey guys, listen to me. The three of us should be on the same side right now. So put your grudges aside until we have solved the problem of the pirates above us!” I got no response in return other than awkward silence. The silence frightened me. I didn’t know what would happen next. I swallowed the lump in my throat and turned my gaze toward Gary. He leaned against the corner of the wall with a deadly look in his eyes as he held the dagger. He was unwilling to accept that he was the weaker party in this fight.It was only then that I realized Gary was severely injured. After the fight earlier on deck, he should have known how reckless it was to fight against Dicken. There was a massive gap between their strengths, which made me worry that Gary would go beyond his depth and start another attack all over again.But things were different for Dicken. It
I held my breath, and my whole body stiffened as I let him hold my face with his webbed claw. The peculiar smell from Dicken began to spread in the air again. I now believed in the mysterious power of mermen. His enchantment was so real that it immobilized me. Of course, I was worried about my professor’s life. But at that point, the threat against Gary didn’t even concern me; I was too occupied trying to resist Dicken’s deadly allurement.I felt like he had enchanted me. He had a mysterious, wild and untamed nature. Everything about him had been bewitching me from the beginning. I was like a curious child entering his trap step by step without even realizing it. I thought I had captured him all this time, but it was the opposite. I couldn’t resist and fell deeper and deeper into his enticement every day. Even after being infringed on so many times by him, I was still addicted to the excitement he brought me. My heart pounded rapidly, and my breath quickened. I started to
The ship swayed more violently now, so I could only hold on tightly to Dicken and cling to him as I could barely keep my head above water. He carried my waist, lifted me, and brought me to the small window.The sky outside turned dark entirely before I realized there was no storm outside as I had imagined, but rather, the sea was covered with tons of seagulls. The ocean was not the usual sea blue. Instead, it was glowing with a green light. I was terrified as I looked carefully below the water.A vast whirlpool appeared near the ship fore, and two luminous things were entangled in the center of the whirlpool. Initially, I thought it was a giant jellyfish, but when I moved my gaze towards the light, I quickly realized that I was being too naïve. That thing in the whirlpool was unimaginably huge. The two shiny basketball-like things that I saw earlier were eyes! ‘Oh my God, what the hell is that! Even a whale shark doesn’t have such big eyes! So, according to the size of the eyes
Despite the first attack failing, the black shadow did not stop attacking. Instead, it aimed directly at Dicken’s face this time!For a moment, I was terrified to death. My voice got stuck in my throat, and I couldn’t even warn Dicken. Dicken clutched tightly onto the snake-like object with his webbed claws, and a loud fractured sound followed immediately. The bones of the creepy creature were crushed within a second. I could finally have a clearer view of the creature now. It was not a sea snake, and it didn’t have a brain either. Instead, the creature looked exactly like a pelican eel. Its mouth occupied most of its body size, and it had three layers of sharp teeth inside. The creature opened and shut its mouth weakly as it struggled. It was only an inch away from Dicken’s face a while ago. Dicken’s handsome face would have probably been badly disfigured if it had bitten him. My interest began to arouse as I looked at the strange, disgusting creature. I quickly flashed throu
Did Dicken plan to fight against the monster all alone under the sea? “Hey, wait a minute!” I chased after him after realizing that it was a terrible decision. But Dicken had already jumped into the sea. His upper body was already submerged in the sea as I ran towards him, and he even swept the cabin door with his tail in front of me, hindering me from following. My legs couldn’t stop in time as I was running, so I slammed into the metal hatch directly. My head went dizzy, and I fell to the ground in an instant. ‘Damn it, Dicken,’ I can’t help yelling in my heart. I pressed my palm against the floor to support my body and shook my head. Only then did I slowly gain consciousness from the dizziness. Then, I noticed several black long-handled objects were hanging on the wall in front of me. I became excited in a second. They were AK47s! These were indeed life-saving in the situation we were in! I quickly mustered up my strength to get up from the ground, and then I carried on
’Right, don’t act without thinking. Calm down, Linda!’I silently advised myself. I took a deep breath and finally managed to calm myself down. “Bang!”Suddenly, the hull suffered another crash again and began to rock severely. I couldn’t stand firm on my feet at all. I rolled around as the hull rocked and then hit against the wall. I reacted immediately to the hit and held the wall to support myself and not fall. I looked out from the window and saw a giant shadow swim across the ship’s bottom, causing a huge wave to surge above the sea. The vast wave was still reflecting the green fluorescence from the creature. The thought of Dicken fighting against the monster made me chill. Where was Dicken?I got nervous immediately, searching for him on the roaring sea. Suddenly, an agile and fit shadow jumped out from the sea. The long fishtail was like a sharp blade shining with black light. The tail curved as he jumped and appeared as a perfect arc on the sea. He then jumped over
The pelican eel knew the danger of exposing its abdomen, so it immediately submerged back into the sea. A pool of blood then spread all over the ocean from its abdomen, and the water turned turbid instantly. The waves were roaring, and the water was cloudy. I couldn’t see where Dicken was, so I didn’t dare to shoot anymore. I was afraid my poor shooting skills would accidentally injure him. I could only look at the sea nervously and observe what would happen next. As I gazed down at sea, a dark shadow swept in from the cabin window. It was the tentacle! I was frightened and immediately raised my gun to attack it. It then opened up its mouth full of sharp teeth and bit my weapon! The speed was abnormally fast that I forgot to release the gun from my hand. So, my whole body was dragged away violently by the tentacle. I was then thrown into the sea before I could even scream. The icy cold water drowned me rapidly, and the salty sea water entered my mouth and nose. I choked se
Before I realized what Dicken was going to do, he breathed an exceedingly high-pitched cry as sonorous as thunder. The entire cave shook in its wake as he grasped my hips with both his webbed paws, lifting me high into the air. A school of sea fishes suddenly swam out of nowhere in an instant, their bodies shining as they encircled us like birds. At the same time, the merfolk started dancing in excitement, kicking up splashes as they pivoted gracefully, the scales of their tails reflecting radiance amid the darkness just like stars in the night sky, the robust, burly mermen and the beautiful, devilish mermaids interweaving to form a bright river of stars.I stared at the stunned sight, mesmerized, spreading my arms by reflex as if infected. I wanted to embrace my dear leader who had surprised me endlessly, expectant of the new world he would take me to.That was when I heard a quiet voice beneath me. “Linda…”I looked down into his wide, narrow gaze that seemed to embody that rive
In the previous dimension where I lived, I had already been prepared to live away from the humans with Dicken. I had nothing aside from him, who was always by my side—our connection seemed so unbreakable just then that I believed that to be my fate.However, I still wouldn’t hope that he would keep killing because of me. Looking into his eyes, I pleaded once again, “Could you promise me to spare Baron? Right now, he’s of no threat to you or merfolk. As long as we return to the domain of your race, humans would have nothing to covet—can’t we stay away from those conspiracies? I’ll always be yours, dear leader.”Dicken looked deeply into my eyes as if he was considering my proposal, and remained quiet for a long time before he eventually gathered me in his arms. “I promise, Linda.”“Hey, shouldn’t we be going out now, and don’t you have an announcement to make? Your people are waiting for you.” I exhaled lengthily and patted his back just then.At those words, I suddenly realized t
That being said, it was no different from me letting myself be taken, because my stubbornness and determination only ever made Dicken want to conquer me even more. We had never been equals, be it fifty years ago or now.One might even say that he wanted me more after losing me once. His desire for me was so strong that he would kill Baron, even though he had granted me rebirth as agreed. After all, he wanted to be my one and only, and no merfolk were allowed to share a single iota of my sentiment. Fuck!I bit my lip, tearing it and tasting blood in my mouth just then, but I couldn’t feel the pain at all.He had suddenly let go of my ankles and gathered in his arms once more, and did so gently. His broad webbed paws caressed my back as if to reassure me, and he did not try to take me anymore.That surprised me, and I opened my eyes and saw that he was staring into my eyes. Then, his eyebrows lowered, he licked the blood on my lips lovingly, seemingly not as furious or agitated as
In fact, I was more willing to believe that Dicken was exaggerating, since my grandfather had never been out of line as far as I could recall. However, even as I assured myself, I was searching my memory in fear that my grandfather meant me harm—fortunately, I came up with nothing, since all I remembered about him was of him being a kind elder who had taught me to read and played with my younger self. There was no question that he had acted like an elder, and even if Dicken wants to take his place in my heart, it would be in a completely different role, since there would always be a part that he couldn’t replace.“Stop thinking about him now, Linda. He’s merely carrying out a mission I had assigned him, and the reason he didn’t lay a finger on you was because I had restrained him.”Dicken appeared to become angrier as he observed my expression, and his was unusually deep as if he would get furious soon. It left me uncomfortable—Dicken appeared reluctant for another merfolk to stay in
I suddenly felt a slippery sensation from my waist, and found the mischievous stingray curling into a ball as it hid behind me, seemingly startled by Dicken’s lecherous tongue.“See? You scared it, pervert.” I leaned in, resting the bridge of my nose against his head as I chuckled softly. On the other hand, Dicken pinched the tender flesh on my hip and stroked my back a few times as he watched me lovingly. “I really want to hide you away, Linda…”“Where would you hide me?” I buried my head in his head and sniffed—it was hard to restrain myself with that intoxicating champagne-like scent of his, but I promptly came to my senses as I remembered that fugitive. “Hold on, don’t seduce me or try to divert my attention with sweet words. What’s with that merman who’s saying that he’s going to look for your Yiki?”Dicken patted my head feebly and stayed silent for a while, but eventually admitted, “It’s Baron.”I froze, immediately remembering the furious glare of that merman who had hidd
“Why would you clothe me out of the blue…” I inhaled deeply, and as I pulled away from his kiss after much difficulty, I asked in confusion, “Are you taking me somewhere?”Dicken looked deeply into my eyes as if something astonishing would soon occur. “Yes… I’m going to announce to my subjects that you’re my mate…”With those words, he threw me over his back and swam out of the cavern filled with stone pillars.Gosh, I was flabbergasted. Still, I soon realized that this was pretty much how it should go, since Dicken had yet to announce about us to his subjects in this dimension. However, I felt a little headache when I remembered how the announcement in the last dimension had gone… He was not going to mate with me in front of everyone again, was he?“Your Majesty…”A high-pitched call suddenly rang from ahead, followed by splashes as a purple figure swam towards us. I was stunned when a face floated out of the water—that purple hair, along with those facial features that were sh
My eyes welled with tears and my mind went dizzy, while a scorching jet of water shot into my body. That was when I saw a blue light moving downwards from Dicken’s chest to where we were connected, and as innumerable jolts struck all over my body, my heart clenched in the intensive stimulation.For a few seconds, I was unable to breathe as all consciousness and emotions seemed to fuse together, rushing towards the wall that was blocking my memories…Then, the wall shattered. “Linda… Linda…”The familiar voice could be heard as if from the distant horizon, though it soon became clear and ultimately echoed beside my ears, and there was no doubt that he was beside me.“Dicken?” I opened my eyes and found my dear leader. It was as if I had met him once more after a slumber that lasted centuries, and yet I felt him beside me all along, and the memory of him taking this body was extremely distinct.I was at once confused and mystified as the memories from two different dimensions slow
“Damn it, you crazy animal…” I cried and moaned, my legs that were kicking Dicken’s shoulder caught by him with ease. At the same time, his body continued to press down on me from above like a hill, holding my body firmly down.Dicken’s hoarse voice spoke beside me then. “Don’t move, Linda, or I won’t be able to resist violating you even more violently—you have no idea how delicious you are…”I froze, my breath cut off at his words even as his tongue slithered into my ear and kicked it as if teasing, while his webbed paw groped my breast. A paralyzing sensation that felt electric spread all over my body, slowly easing the bursting pain of being entered. Soon, a familiar yet irresistible exhilaration occupied my senses, and even as I kept gulping, my own spit was welling out the corner of my mouth.Curious, Dicken stared at the edge of my lips and extended his tongue to lick it, as if it were the tastiest raindrops in existence. At the same time, I could feel him entering several inc
“Don’t be scared…”As Dicken inhaled deeply over my nape, his breathing became heavy and choppy. He twitched as he snuggled up against my back, and I could feel his humongous member flapping against my buttocks, along with its scorching heat. How could I not be scared by the prospect of that thing penetrating me?!I clenched my fist and punched at his tail which was darting between my legs, but he easily grabbed my wrist and suddenly turned around, pinning me beneath himself while his tail slithered between my legs and lifted my buttocks. Losing my balance, I fell sprawled over the reef, and as he gripped my hands to keep them behind myself, tears rolled out of the corner of my eye by instinct as lust and fear suddenly erupted. “No, I’m scared, Dicken… No, you’ll hurt me…”Dicken ignored my plea for mercy, however, and kept leaning on me as he gnawed my shoulder, as if to devour me by one tiny bite after another. The tenderness and adoration he’d shown towards me just now was gone,
