Chapter 125


    The Merman, My Man by ck Velvet Chapter 125


    I walked down the steps and came to a halt near the water. The pool was clouded with lotus -like


    nts, making it less clear than theke. Dicken was nowhere to be found.


    I had no choice but to take a seat on the stairwell. “I would like to appreciate your help on behalf of my


    don’te out right now.”


    After I finished speaking, I feltpelled to stand. I wasn’t sure if Dicken had hidden on purpose; he


    had looked at me earlier, but I couldn’t find him now.


    But, deep down, I didn’t want him to show up as well so that I’d have an excuse to leave quickly and


    finish the task Jack had assigned to me.


    But I knew it couldn’t happen. A webbed w slowly reached out from among the floating nts and


    grabbed my ankle. Then a handsome face emerged from the water, slowly approaching my legs.


    Despite being mentally prepared, seeing Dicken in this light made me subconsciously shrink back. I


    was shaky on my feet and nearly fell backward. Then a wet webbed w gripped my waist and


    propelled me forward. I was then sucked into Dicken’s embrace, resting my head on his damp and


    muscr chest.


    I raised my head to face him. We were so close that my lips identally rubbed against his chin, which


    was damp with water droplets. And I was once again immersed in his enticing eyes. My breathing


    became more rapid.


    Jack’s voice, which was not far away, jolted me awake. I pushed Dicken away, raised the grilled fish in


    my hand, and yelled back at Jack, “I’m here ! Don’ t be worried. I’m all set to feed him! “


    ”Feed… ” Dicken repeated the word after imitating my pronunciation. He raised his eyebrows and


    looked at me with suspicion. He appeared to be interested in the word, but he didn’t understand what it


    meant.


    It was to be expected that he would notprehend. The mermen hunt on their own. How could he


    possibly understand what the word meant? I


    thought feeding Dicken might offend him. How could he put up with this humiliation? Feeding him was


    tantamount to using God’s name in vain. It was heresy!


    ”Uh… ” I awkwardly dangled the grilled fish in my hand, grabbed his webbed w, and attempted to


    insert the fork into his webbed w. “This is for you, ” I finally said patiently. In a humane manner, this


    is how we eat it. The fish was grilled over an open me. Do you want to give it a shot?”


    Dicken lowered his gaze and looked at the grilled fish in my hand with interest. Then he took a step


    forward to sniff, and his frown became much more pronounced. I’m not sure if the barbecue sauce


    matches Dickens’ taste, but it was my favorite. What a treat it would be to have a bite of my favorite


    dish on the arduous journey !


    If Dicken didn’t want to eat it, this grilled fish would be mine. I couldn’t stop myself from slurping just


    thinking about the taste.


    Dicken suddenly grabbed my wrist with his webbed w and pushed the grilled fish towards him, just


    as I thought he’d refuse to eat it. He gnawed a piece of the fish with his mouth wide open. He ate


    everything in one bite, including the fishbone—what an unappealing way to eat. I was afraid he’d


    swallow the fork. I quickly drew the fork back and extracted half of the fish that had been stuffed into his

    mouth. “Hey, dude! ” I said as I patted his head. That is not how you use a fork! You’re going to hurt


    yourself!”
