The Merman, My Man by Black Velvet Chapter 150
I tensed up when I realized those were Gary’s and Laura’s voices.
I shrunk myself under the shade of the tree with my back plastered against its trunk. I spied on them
through the corner of my eye and saw that they were next to some stone pillars less than ten meters
away. If they came closer to where I was, they would have heard the sound of my reggae breathing as
well as my suppressed moans.
I could only clamp my hand onto my mouth and nose tightly and not move as I listened to my own loud
and rapid heartbeat. I couldn’t help but tremble as I wished they wouldn’t notice my presence.
“I have a feeling she’s nearby,“ said Gary.
He looked around and swept the beam of his flashlight around the tall grass. He was headed in my
direction, so I shrunk my body further and hid behind the tree trunk. My heart felt like it had jumped up
to my throat when he took notice of the tree I was behind. Thankfully, at that moment, Laura called for
him.
“Stop the search, Gary. It’s getting in the way of proper business. We need to head to the shore soon to
welcome the other doctors. Don’t worry about Linda. By the day after tomorrow, these islands will be
under military control, and no one will be able to escape. Are you still worried that you won’t be able to
find her?”
Laura said that nonchalantly but it was a grave matter to me. The ships and helicopters were on
Laura’s side, and they were the military. ‘Which country are they from? What on earth do they want
from these islands inhabited by merpeople?’
Gary was silent for a while before he spoke to Laura, ”Colonel Laura, you can vanquish anyone you
wish when they get here, but I hope you’ll leave Linda to me. She’s still so young, and she’s a genius in
biological studies. There is value to keeping her around. Don’t you want to build a research base here?
She will be of use to us then.”
‘What? A research base? Laura wants to occupy these islands and build a research base? What do
they intend to research? Merpeople? Why do they need the military to be involved in this? Unless they Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
want to use the research product to manufacture weapons.’
I inhaled a deep breath in disbelief of the conspiracy they had plotted.
Then, I heard Laura cackle coldly as she replied, ” You’re thinking too much about this, Gary. This isn’t
something you or I can decide. Don’t let your feelings get in the way of your decision -making and
performance. I admit that Linda does have value in contributing to research on merpeople. She’s also
pretty, brave, and young. She’s someone who fights for her dreams.”
Laura paused before she continued. ”She’s like a fearless moth being attracted to the moonlight. She
can’ t help but rush to the moon, but as you know, this would only hasten her demise.”
”But colonel, it’s not because I… ”
Laura interrupted Gary and said, ”You like her, Gary. You love her. You still don’t want to admit it? I’m
not restricting your romantic relationships, but they
must always come second. My orders will always be of utmost priority. Do you understand?”
”..I understand, ” replied Gary.
My hands clutched onto the soil as I couldn’t help but hyperventilate. The anger I felt from hearing their
conversation only served to aggravate the effects of my intense s*xual urges.
I had somewhat connected the dots in this entire debacle. Gary and Laura’s troop had set their eyes on
merpeople and these islands a long time ago.
Therefore, Gary implanted himself as a university professor and plotted this unthinkable conspiracy. On
the other hand, Laura had also implanted herself in the Japanese military, leading Japan to think other
countries were causing trouble, directing their attention to America and other countries. They had been
lying in wait for the two sides to sustain casualties before reaping the benefits. ‘I must tell Peter and the
others about this as soon as possible! There’s no time to lose!’
