The Merman, My Man by Black Velvet Chapter 165
I clenched my fists tightly, causing my knuckles to crack. Then, I took a deep breath and stepped into
the cabin as the door slammed shut behind me.
My surroundings were completely dark, but the night vision I had just acquired came into effect a few
seconds later.
This cabin was very wide, and a large water tank made of glass was placed in its center. Dicken’s head This content is © NôvelDrama.Org.
hung low as he was hung from his arms with chains that were as thick as my wrist.
I thought of how he was considered a ferocious beast of the ocean but was here hanging like a dying
criminal. His upper body was lifted above the water surface, and his originally flawless and
unblemished chest had a burn mark on it. I could tell that a high voltage electric shock caused it.
‘They left such a deep wound on him that it will take ages to heal. What on earth did Laura and her
men do to him?!’
I was dumbfounded for a second. Then I stumbled as I ran into the tank. I shuffled in the water until I
was right in front of him. I could see the wound on his chest clearer now. Then my chest started to hurt
as well as if my chest was the one that sustained a wound. I held out a trembling hand and traced my
fingers on his skin around the edges of the wound. The feeling of distress caused me to tremble, and I
felt like something was stuck in my throat, preventing me from speaking.
Finally, I said shakily, “Dicken.“
My voice was hoarse and low, and it sounded like a sob. It was so soft that even I could barely hear it.
But Dicken responded. He panted profusely as he slowly lifted his head with great difficulty. His deep
eyes seemed to lose focus for a moment, but they eventually locked onto my face.
“Linda. Linda.“
He mumbled softly while my face was plastered onto his and our noses touched. His voice was so low
that I was the only one who could hear it.
I couldn’t help but cup his cheeks and shakily lean in to kiss him. As if this was a way to ensure that he
would stay alive and not die in the next instant.
Dicken’s body stiffened. He must have never expected that I would kiss him of my own volition without
any conditions involved.
In fact, even I didn’t expect that I would do that. I didn’t think before I acted. It was like a hidden part of
me had surfaced and taken control of my body and my soul.
I had actually willingly kissed him. Despite knowing that Laura and her men were monitoring me
through the surveillance cameras, I couldn’t suppress the yearning in my heart.
My heart felt like it was bleeding. I knew that I wasn’t sad because this strong being had tortured me,
and I had thrown out all semblance of thought as a researcher on biology. I simply acted upon the
intense emotions I was feeling.
I anxiously kissed Dicken in distress, but he remained still and didn’t breathe a word of reply. Perhaps
he didn’t have any strength left, or he was still mad at me for running away. Or maybe he knew that I
didn’t come in here without a purpose in
mind, thinking that I was in cahoots with Laura.
He had every reason to think so. It wasn’t hard to believe that I was a cruel and selfish human being
who had invaded his homeland and betrayed him for my own benefit.
I could guess what Dicken was thinking about, so I withdrew my lips from his. Just as I did so, he
suddenly lowered his head and heavily pressed his lips onto mine. His sharp teeth bit my lips, and I
moaned in pain. He then bit down on it harder then started licking my wound with his tongue
repeatedly.
