The Merman, My Man by Black Velvet Chapter 29
I was so anxious for Dicken that I broke out in a sweat. Here there was a gorgeous mermaid right in front of him, and he was just floating there. What was he waiting for!
I took another long drag from the cigarette. When Alice swam into Dicken’s embrace, I almost forgot to breathe! Dicken finally reacted as he embraced Alice. He tilted his head down into Alice’s neck to take in her scent. Alice seemed to enjoy this as she shook her tail happily.
I became more and more invested in the scene before me that I forgot to remove the cigarette from my lips. But then I saw something that I will not forget for the rest of my life.
“Ahhh! “, I screamed as I fell onto the floor. I was so shocked that I couldn’t even move.
Laura, who had always been calm, also screamed in shock. She stumbled backward but thankfully the men following her helped support her.
Alice’s pale white corpse was muddled with purplish blood. Her body, limbs, and head floated up to the surface of the water. Her green eyes were still opened and she was staring at us, accusing us of her tragic fate!
Dicken looked like a harbinger from hell as he tore apart Alice’s remains. He licked his lips and his deep abysmal eyes were devoid of remorse , only desire and hunger befitting a savage beast. His handsome face now only reflected ferocity.
It was as Gary said, he was a demon. I shouldn’t have been deceived by his appearance !
I rushed down the stairs to where Dicken and Alice were and desperately banged on the glass door. I desperately shouted, ”Damn it, Alice. My Alice… Stop it, Dicken! She’s of the same species as you, you can’t do this!”
