The Merman, My Man by Black Velvet Chapter 175
As he loosened my buttons, I clenched my fist and forced myself to ignore him. “Are you doing this to prove to the merman that I am yours? Do you believe he will develop jealousy like any
other man?
Ridiculous. He doesn‘t give a damn. He‘s a beast, and this will only pique his interest. To him, I’m nothing more than a tool for satisfying his sexual desire. And you share his viewpoint. Do you believe that beast will feel anything for me? Don‘t you think it‘s absurd? You have no idea what you‘re talking about. I‘in nothing more than a trade item he paid for in advance.”
This was my plan to deceive Gary. But I was perplexed. These words sounded like they came from my deepest thoughts. For a brief moment, I mistook them for real. They sounded reasonable. However, the image of Dicken and I spending time together seemed to contradict
the thoughts. His narrow, deep eyes seemed to peer through the darkness and fixate on me. ‘No !‘ screamed a voice in my head. It‘s not what you think!
The conflict between two opposing thoughts in my mind caused me to suffer inside. My face took on a gloomy expression.” I am the trade item,” I said in pain, closing my eyes. My family first made contact with the inerpeople a long time ago. Laura might be keeping it from you, but
I believe she is aware of it. Everything you just saw on the monitor was because I was being
watched. There is something unique about the beast that can “bewitch” me.
I took a sip, feeling parched in my throat. For me, speaking against my will was a challenge.
Gary‘s rage would only subside if I continued, but I had no choice but to continue in order to gain his good graces and avoid further abuse at his hands.
