The Merman, My Man by Black Velvet Chapter 24
I yelped as I woke up from this strange dream. I immediately pushed the blanket away to take a look at my legs. Both my legs were fine and I was wearing hospital pyjama pants.
I sighed a breath of relief. Why did I have such a strange dream? One where I became a mermaid at that! A chill went down my spine. The words spoken by the elderly woman in the dream were partially true and it scared me.
But what happened to me? Why was I lying on a hospital bed? Didn’t I go to the reservoir with Peter? I even remembered that Peter let the merman out as if his mind was being controlled!
But what happened after that? Why couldn’t I remember a thing?
I tried to recall the missing memories between going to the reservoir and waking up on this hospital bed, but the only memory I could remember was the merman climbing in through the open cabin door and the conversation with the woman in the dream. All the memories in between were missing as if they were erased.
My head was heavy and I felt feverish. I wanted to go take a shower to freshen myself up, but when I moved my legs just a little, all I felt was soreness and pain. I could barely move my entire lower body and the sensitive spot between my thighs was extremely sore.
How did this happen…
