Love That Bites, Pain That Stays
My sense of taste had long since been dulled from all the pain I suffered, so all I could feel was that the meat was slightly different from anything I'd ever eaten before.
"Is it good?" Emily smiled brightly. "They're always in seawater, so I'm sure mermaid flesh is pretty tender, right?"
A piece of meat dropped from my mouth as I raised my head in shock, looking at Emily, as if I was processing what she just told me.
Her smile only grew wider, relishing in my pain.
A wave of nausea rose up, and I collapsed to the ground.
Urgh!
"God, my shoes!"
I had thrown up all over Emily's heels.
