The Merman, My Man by Black Velvet Chapter 69
“This chick is really feisty! It will be a shame if our brothers don’t play with her.“
“Stop that. This woman is that monster’s trainer. We need her here so that the monster won’t go crazy. After all, it looks like she won’t be living much longer. So we might as well feed her to the monster when the time comes.“
“You’ve got a good point. Let’s go! There are still a few idiots on deck to handle! “
After that, the doorway to the cargo hold closed with a bang and entrapped me in darkness. There was only a weak ray of light coming from a gap in the wall.
It took a while for my eyes to adjust to the darkness. I could faintly see a dark mass moving about somewhere not far from where I was. The movement was accompanied by chains rustling and knocking against the wall.
I immediately recognized that it was Dicken as he was still bound in chains. I didn’t expect the pirates to imprison us in the same place.
“Linda…Linda…“
Dicken was beckoning me. I was familiar with the sound of his voice.
It was dim, but I could see a dark shadow resembling a fishtail writhing about for a while before a large splash sprayed water onto me. Then, suddenly, a large ripple formed from where I was standing in just a few seconds.
Dicken’s head gradually emerged from the water surface, followed by his torso. I could see many streaks of scars on his chest left behind by the metal chains.
But the metal chains were gone. Dicken had broken free from the chains except for one around his waist that was as thick as my arm. There was a padlock on that chain, but it posed no difficulty to his movements. It looked more like an accessory on him.
I wanted to reach out and touch him, but I was too weak. I could only move my body a little but couldn’t lift my arm.
