The Merman, My Man Chapter 65: He’s Here!
He was a beast, after all. His acts of intimacy stemmed from his feral instincts and were not based on emotions. It was perfectly logical for him to leave. Although I had that train of thought, I still mentally cursed him in the back of my mind. ‘Despicable!’ I hadn’t expected to feel miserable. I clenched my fists in a fury. ‘That stupid beast! How could he abandon me?!’ Just when I was lamenting his absence, I suddenly heard the sound of a strong wave crashing against the hull of a boat. Seawater overflowed onto the deck and the boat started rocking side to side. The man stepping on me lost balance and fell onto the floor. Withstanding the pain, I crawled up and raised my head. Dicken’s tail clung to the boat’s mast as he propped his body upright, overseeing the situation on the boat from above like a harbinger of death. He roared fiercely before pouncing onto the pirate that had stepped on me. With a mighty swing from his long tail, several of the pirates who were ready to

I held onto one of the sailor’s legs and dragged him under the eaves. That way, he would be further away from the gunfire. Suddenly, I heard the sound of someone wailing, “Miss Linda! Please help me! I’m having a heart attack! I feel like I’m about to die…”I recognized that voice to be Henry’s. I hurriedly looked for his figure among the group of sailors. I found him curled up with a painful expression on his face. “Wait for me!” I got to him immediately and dragged him under the eaves the same way I dragged the other sailor. I intended to do CPR on him, but the moment I pressed my hands onto his chest, a cold and metallic gun barrel was placed below my chin. Henry’s face, which was originally twisted in pain and agony, was now malicious as if his behavior of being in pain earlier was all an act. I was dumbfounded. Henry’s hands were not tied. He had been disguising himself all along because he was a spy for the pirates. ‘What is going on?’ ‘Henry was the sailor who had
The Merman, My Man Chapter 67: The Gap in Strength
This was also when the turbulent sounds of gunfire started on the deck. The unavoidable battle had begun. I tried pressing against the wound on my abdomen, but the intense pain was enough to silence me. I could only lay on the floor as I raised my head with difficulty, watching the ongoing battle on deck. The overwhelming fatigue was preventing my eyes from staying open. I saw Dicken zipping around as he avoided the flurry of bullets. It was obvious that the bullets slowed him down. However, it could also be that he had no intention of attacking anyone and was just dodging the bullets as he stared in my direction. Dicken wasn’t scared of bullets. Rather, he was scared that I would be hurt further as Henry was still near me! ‘But how could he dodge every single bullet?. If this goes on, he will die!’ I felt my chest tighten. Even though I despised Dicken for violating me, I never once hoped for him to die, especially since he came back to save me even though he had the chance
The Merman, My Man Chapter 68: Imprisoned by Pirates
Gary and Laura needed Dicken and me to remain alive. The group of pirates didn’t seem like they were just trying to rob us, else they wouldn’t have got Henry to spy on Gary and me for so long. At the very least, Dicken and I were left alive. As long as we were alive, there would be a chance to escape. The pain and blood loss drained me unconscious. All I could feel was Henry still clutching to my body near the edge of the deck.As for the pirate ship, it had inched closer until it was just mere meters away from us. The pirates on the ship placed a small bridge made of steel between the decks of both vessels. Our boat trembled, and seawater splashed from the area of impact. I heard the sound of chains approaching closer from behind me, followed by the metallic scent of blood flooding my nostrils. I turned my head as much as I could to take a look. Unfortunately, as my eyesight was blurred from the pain I was enduring, I could only faintly see several pirates tugging the chains

“This chick is really feisty! It will be a shame if our brothers don’t play with her.” “Stop that. This woman is that monster’s trainer. We need her here so that the monster won’t go crazy. After all, it looks like she won’t be living much longer. So we might as well feed her to the monster when the time comes.” “You’ve got a good point. Let’s go! There are still a few idiots on deck to handle!” After that, the doorway to the cargo hold closed with a bang and entrapped me in darkness. There was only a weak ray of light coming from a gap in the wall. It took a while for my eyes to adjust to the darkness. I could faintly see a dark mass moving about somewhere not far from where I was. The movement was accompanied by chains rustling and knocking against the wall. I immediately recognized that it was Dicken as he was still bound in chains. I didn’t expect the pirates to imprison us in the same place. “Linda…Linda…” Dicken was beckoning me. I was familiar with the sound of his
The Merman, My Man Chapter 70: The Merman’s Teasing
Very quickly, the healing properties of Dicken’s saliva started to take effect. The extreme pain began to dissipate, and a tingling and ticklish feeling replaced it as the wound healed. It wasn’t uncomfortable. Rather, it was quite enjoyable. Just like that, my body eventually relaxed, and my eyelids started to feel heavy as sleepiness took over my mind. Dicken rocked my body rhythmically as if I was a baby being rocked to sleep. Before long, I fell asleep peacefully with my arms around Dicken’s neck. When I finally woke up from my slumber, I felt like I had been sleeping for a long time. For a moment, I thought I was in a dream because I had regained my strength and vigor. The several hours of sleep felt like I had rested for days, all thanks to Dicken’s mysterious healing powers. Dicken’s head was buried into my abdomen as he was still healing me. I looked down and saw his long eyelashes partially concealing his breathtaking eyes not forgetting his high nose bridge and his ch
The Merman, My Man Chapter 71: The Merman Sought Help
The scent of Dicken’s unique fragrance entered my nostrils, hastening my breathing. My body had been submerged in water for some time, so I should’ve been cold. But, instead, my body was heating up as if I was being held above flames. I gritted my teeth in uneasiness and inhaled a deep breath to suppress my rapid breathing and to stabilize my heart rate. I couldn’t believe that my body was becoming increasingly sensitive to Dicken’s touch. Dicken’s slight rocking movement had caused me to clamp my legs around his tail. As I thought about how humiliating I looked, I shook my head and squirmed from his hold onto me. Then, I grabbed his shoulders and shouted, “Dicken! Dicken, I’m fine now. Can you please put me down?” Calling him ‘Dicken’ was definitely better than saying ‘hey.’ The claws that were holding on to my waist loosened their grip as he slowly put me down. My feet felt around the water until they found the floor beneath to stand on. I immediately closed my legs and
The Merman, My Man Chapter 72: Mutual Assistance
“Okay… but don’t move. I’ll help you take the bullets out,” I said strictly, hoping it would hide my awkwardness. I drew in a deep breath to stabilize my heartbeat, then rolled up my sleeves. Holding onto the wall behind Dicken, I knelt and inched closer to a wound on his abdomen. Just when my lips touched his wound, Dicken’s abdomen started trembling. He placed his wet claws onto my shoulder as droplets of water from it slid into my collar, causing me to tremble as well. ‘But how could I retreat now? I have to calm down and pretend to be an emotionless vet while sucking on his wounds.’ I sucked on it profusely, and Dicken’s abs tensed in tandem to my sucking. This caused the bullets to embed deeper into his flesh. I could only place my hands on his tough hips to hold him in position as my tongue reached into the wound to hook onto the shrapnel inside. When I finally retrieved the shrapnel, I immediately turned to spit it out. I wiped some sweat away from my brows. Of cours
