The merman, my man

The Merman, My Man by Black Velvet Chapter 60

By the time I could react, the object enclosed within his scales had emerged and was erected towards me.

Dicken propped his face up on an elbow with a face filled with delight. He was admiring my frantic and embarrassed reaction.

With a tug, his tail retracted its grip from my leg and proceeded to spank my buttcheeks. I was being played and teased by this lewd creature while n*ked!

The spanking came as a surprise, causing me to roll off the bed and onto the cabin's floorboards in pain. I tried my hardest to withstand the pain so I wouldn't yelp in pain.

'I can't scream. I can't let anyone find out that Dicken is in my room, especially while n*ked!

'But how could I let him stay here with me? I'm pretty sure I know what is going to happen next...'

I inched backward and moved away from him, then grabbed a nearby chair. With the four legs of their chair pointed to him, I raised my voice to make myself appear assertive. "Get out, if not I'll scream for help! You don't want to get a taste of bullets again, do you?"

Dicken did not respond.

I was worried that he didn't fully comprehend what I meant, so I swiftly pointed to the window, as that was likely how he entered the room in the first place.

Dicken raised a brow and looked at me before shifting his line of sight to the window like he was trying to figure out what I had said.

Then, he made a finger gun with his webbed claws and shook his head with a mocking look on his face. Finally, he opened his mouth and started laughing.

That was the first time I had heard laughter that sounded so cunning. Dicken was like someone plotting devious conspiracies while mockingly laughing at my ignorant self.

I understood what he meant. He was conveying that guns would be ineffective to him.

He must have thought that my threat was childish because he knew I couldn't do anything against him.

Fear took over me, but I refused to give up. I gritted my teeth and spat out the words, "Don't get too cocky! I'm talking about real bullets here, not tranquilizer darts! "

Dicken suddenly stopped smiling and got down from the bed. He curled his long tail in a position that allowed him to stand upright. In the next second, his figure cast a large shadow over me.

I reflexively tightened my grip on the chair I was holding and positioned it in front of me like a shield.

In an instant, Dicken knocked the chair out of my hands. My eyes couldn't even follow his movements. His strength was overpowering.

He gradually approached me as I carefully took steps backward to maintain a distance from him until my back was against the door.

He then extended his arms to trap me in place against the door. He inched his face closer, and I could feel his humid breath against my face as he said, "Linda...call me... Dicken...I am...your Dicken." I shyly turned away, unwilling to meet his eyes.

Without a doubt, I knew what 'Dicken' meant to this merman. It contained the same meaning as a verb related to love-making in Japanese. It carried the meaning of mating and courtship!

Asking me to call him 'Dicken was no different from asking me to admit that I was his mate. This was pretty much like asking him to have sex with me!

It was too unbelievable!

As a beast, why would he care so much what I called him?

I definitely couldn't call him that and allow him to have sex with me. Otherwise, whatever happened in the research room would happen again!

I gritted my teeth and spat, "No! Definitely not!"

Because I had recalled the things Dicken did to me on the island earlier, my cheeks went from warm to hot. In an instant, he reached out a claw and caressed my lips.

As he leaned against me, he spoke several words that he may have just learned. He said word after word slowly in a low voice, "Last night...you...took initiative...kiss me..."

I was horror-stricken from his words and was petrified.

The fuzzy and fragmented memories from last night surfaced in my mind piece by piece -clinging onto him in hunger, sucking on his tongue in unquenchable thirst... The memories were so humiliating that I could have passed out on the spot.

Just then, I could hear someone shouting from outside the cabin, "Everyone, look! There is a ship over there calling for help!

"That's right! The ship is in distress!"
