The Merman, My Man by Black Velvet Chapter 27

“Linda! Are you okay?“

I woke up after I heard Gary say that. I couldn’t believe that I had fainted again, against Gary’s chest no

less!

I quickly tried to get up but Gary hung onto my arm and didn’t let go.

“Linda, are you alright? Are you having a fever? Your face looks flushed.“ Laura placed her hand onto

my forehead to check my temperature.

Gary gripped my arm tightly and said strictly, “ Colonel Laura, as Linda’s professor I’m strongly against

Linda participating in the research on merpeople reproduction! We should at least wait until Professor

Peter is awake! “

I angrily snatched my arm away from his grip in rejection. “No! I won’t give up on a chance like this! “

Gary’s muscles tensed and his face displayed a grim expression. He raised his voice and shouted, “ Owned by NôvelDrama.Org.

Absolutely not! “ If Laura hadn’t been around, he probably would have restrained me with physical

force.

After seeing the situation at hand and knowing he was afraid of Laura, I quickly hid behind her and

stuck my face out mouthing the words ‘f*ck you’.

Then, I grabbed a windbreaker and put it on before following Laura. ”Doctor Laura, let’s go. I’m willing

to participate in the inerpeople mating research project.”

As I entered the research room within the reservoir for the second time, I smelled the fragrance again. I

quickly covered my nose with the fabric of my clothes, the smell of disinfectant on it momentarily

cleared my head. I realized that the fragrance caused me to think irrationally.

Even though my mind was conscious, my body seemed to be reluctant to enter the reservoir. I didn’t

even dare to look for Dicken in the water around us.

I was scared to see him, especially when it was confirmed that he was in a rut ! He even referred to me

as his mating partner. It felt too shameful !

I followed Laura up the stairs without even looking up. This was another research room above the

library. Peter didn’ t bring me in here last time, it looked like access here was restricted.

The floor below my feet was made of glass and below the glass was seawater of a deep blue. Standing

here, it felt like I was floating on the surface of the sea with swaying seaweed and shoals of fish below

me.

I still couldn’t help but search for Dicken, but I sighed a breath of relief when I couldn’t see him.

”What are you looking for? That imbecile of a merman?”, I jumped when I heard Gary’s moody voice

next to my ear. I turned to look at Gary and felt slightly fearful but masked it with anger and said, ” What

are you saying? How can you describe mythical beings like this? Even before we caught this merman,

you already referred to them as seductive evil beings! “

“But this is a male, a greedy and barbaric male. You must have been fooled by his appearance! “ Gary

gave me a death stare as if he was trying to find any weakness in my resolve. He gritted his teeth and

said, “That thing did…“

“Linda, look here! That is our mermaid! “

Laura interrupted Gary and I raised my head to take a look. A cylindrical glass tank was slowly lowered

and when it was in front of us, I couldn’t help but gasp in wonder.

It really was a mermaid!

I inadvertently walked toward her as she was just too beautiful! She really was like a seductive evil

being, just as Gary had said.

“Her name is Alice. She’s a beauty isn’t she?“ Laura approached the tank and said, “She was in

cryostasis for a long time, that’s why she looks so weak.“

That’s right, she did appear weak. But the combination of her weakness and her beauty made her look

unreal. She had silver hair like an elf and she didn’t have a clam bra as depicted in fairy tales, so her

perfectly formed breasts were exposed right in front of us. Her skin was as bright as porcelain and she

had a pair of pitiful light green eyes.

She was depressed.

I felt her sadness, it seemed like she was mourning her own tragic fate.

“I ‘m sorry… You’ll soon be with one of your kind, please don’t be sad.”

I put my hands on the glass and said that as I wanted to comfort her but my heart was full of guilt.

Humans were so selfish, we created beautiful beings like this in the name of research but we weren’t

able to let them live longer. And now, we were using her as a tool for research so that she would be of

value to us before she dies.
