The Merman, My Man by Black Velvet Chapter 119
“Will you return?“
Dicken smirked slightly and asked again the question that had yet been answered.
I looked Dicken in the eyes and realized I’d unknowingly signed a contract with this dangerous, mysterious creature. The contract stipulated that I would be completely devoted to him.
The environment appeared quiet, and even the air seemed to stop moving for a split second. My companions’ yelling was no longer audible to me. Time seemed to be moving backward quickly. All of my Dicken-related memories were playing in my head like a movie, and they came to a halt at a picture of the cold sea. Then, from a distance, I heard a familiar voice. “Little girl, will you return to me? ” Dicken asked in English.
Dicken had asked a similar question earlier. As if everything was predetermined.
Dicken had asked me the same question when I was a child. But I was only a kid at the time. Nothing made sense to me, and I had no recollection of it.
More than a decade had passed. I’d completely forgotten about my childhood. However, he enticed me to approach him as if he had planted a seed in my heart. He was like a well-thought-out mastermind, waiting for me to fall into every trap he set, regardless of the cost.
The moment I met him, it seemed as if my destiny had been written in stone.
“Look! Is that Linda?“
