A MERMAID'S LOVE - CHAPTER 22&23
★★★★★
“Young master!” The driver yelled again, still racing after the car but it all ended when he ran into another car and hit his head hard on the steering, losing consciousness immediately.
*****
Lotus got to her doorstep and a strange wind blew on her skin, making her feel somehow.
“Is it because Anita is gone?” She thought sadly and made to go in again but the wind hit her skin again.
She stood still and looked at the sky.
Stars were beautifying the sky before but it vanished immediately, causing complete darkness.
“Starr” she whispered and got her phone.
She dialled his line but it’s off.
She started panicking and dialled Martin’s line.
“Martin!”
“Are you ok?”
“Is Starr ok?, Is he still with you?” She asked worriedly.
“No, we departed ten minutes ago and I’m just getting home right now, why?”
“He’s not ok I can just feel it, his line is off too” she replied.
“What the!” Martin said shockingly.
“What!” She asked quickly.
“Watch the TV” he replied and she hung up before rushing into the house.
She put on the TV and the news that’s airing is about the heir of DJS group who got kidnapped just now by a road.
The remote fell from her and she rushed out of the house immediately.
She tried to mind link but it didn’t work, she tried tracing with his scent but it’s not working too, she couldn’t smell him, she tried downloading his location by connecting her heart with her head but it’s not working either.
Nothing is working.
She became restless as hell and she rushed to the garage.
“Your mate was kidnapped” Nam-Ri said.
“What do I do?, I can’t even do anything” she said restlessly.
“That’s because you haven’t sealed the bond, why are you taking long to do it?” He replied.
“I almost did it earlier but Martin interrupted, I don’t want anything to happen to him, I’ll get hurt too” she replied.
“Where do I drive to?” He asked.
“Martin’s place..no drive to Bluey’s place” she replied quickly.
It was fast cos he moved with the wind and it took less than three minutes.
The car stopped in front of the Kings mansion and she met Bluey just coming out of the house.
“Lotus?, How did you know my place?”
“That’s not important right now, who could have kidnapped him?” She asked impatiently.
Martin’s car stopped immediately and he came fast.
“Lotus you’re here already” he said.
“I don’t want him to get hurt, I know kidnappers can ki||” she replied, moving restlessly on her spot.
“Let’s go to his place first” Bluey suggested.
*****
THE MCDONALD’S MANSION**
“I told you not to allow him leave this house unnecessarily Judy, look what happened” Davis said, pacing around the living room.
“It’s not my fault baby, he wanted to go to the park, you know how much he loves visiting that park since his grandma’s demise, I couldn’t possibly deny him” Judy said.
“Then you should have let him leave with guards at least” Davis replied, his arms akimbo.
“You know how much he h@??s guards and he’s always very stubborn about it, you’re aware Davis” Judy replied.
Davis’s phone rang and he picked fast.
“Any news?”
“No sir, the car was numberless, but we’re trying our best sir, we’ll get him” the cop replied and Davis hung up.
“What did they say?” Judy asked.
“Still the same” he replied dejectedly.
“Nothing must happen to my honey, they shouldn’t hurt him, they shouldn’t” she fidgeted.
“I suspect two people, Klein or Rachel, they’re the only two enemies of the group right now” Davis said, walking out.
“Where are you going to?” Judy asked.
“To the cops, I have to get those two arrested” he replied and left completely.
Lotus came in with Martin and Bluey immediately.
“Martin!, Bluey!” Judy said.
“Is there any suspect?” Bluey asked.
“DJS group has too many enemies like you know, I can’t even say where this came from” she replied.
“Are they…. going to…ki|| him?” Lotus asked naively.
“Don’t ask such questions in this situation Lotus” Martin whispered.
“I’m just… overly worried” she replied.
“Who’s she?” Judy asked.
“Our schoolmate” Bluey replied.
Judy sat impatiently but she stood again and started walking around.
“Take it easy Mrs McDonald, I’m sure he won’t get hurt” Martin said.
“We can’t he so sure, we can’t be sure Martin, I can’t stand him getting hurt” Judy replied .
******
Lotus went back home later that night though Martin and Bluey offered to follow her but she declined.
She got to her mansion and bent down in the middle of the lifeless living room.
“I wish I could smell him, I wish I could just get rid of his captors, I miss him already” she whispered sadly.
“Lotus” Rivera’s voice said and she spranged up as water filled up the place.
“Goddess!, Please help me, I don’t want to lose my soulmate, I don’t know his whereabouts, I don’t want them to ki|| him…
“Why haven’t you sealed the bond?” She asked.
“I was scared, I wanted to take it slow, and I had this feeling that my cruel fate is all about him” Lotus replied.
“You’re right, it’s him, why do you think your tears scents like him?” Rivera replied.
“What do I do?”
“Releasing your voice brought you many enemies already, enemies that’ll bring you harm in the future if you’re not careful, and sealing the bond will bring more enemies…close and distant ones” Rivera said.
“I really don’t care goddess, I just want to see him and make sure he’s fine, I want to save him and seal the bond with him immediately, please help me” Lotus pleaded.
“All your efforts to sense him didn’t work because you both aren’t bonded yet, but there’s a way to smell him even when he’s far” Rivera said.
“Really?”
“If he gets wounded and bleeds, the scent of his blood will reach you no matter how far you are from each other, just wait” Rivera replied and vanished.
AN HIDEOUT**
Starr opened his eyes but he could see nothing.
He needs glasses to see in dim light at night but his glasses fell during the kidnap so he’s helpless now.
He’s sitting on something which he’s sure is a chair judging by it’s structure.
His hands weren’t tied but he can’t see anything anyways so it’s useless to move.
“Where am I?, Who took me here!” He demanded loudly.
“Where am i!” He shouted again, breathing loudly.
An hand suddenly held his shoulder and he cringed.
“Calm down oh boy, you’re safe” a deep man voice said.
The voice sounds familiar immediately.
“Who the hell are you!, Why did you take me here?, Let me go!” Starr shouted again and his shoulder was pressed hard .
“Ahh!” He yelped.
“Shouting at me will only make your death faster, you’re dying anyways” the voice said.
“What do you think you’re doing?, I did nothing wrong!” He shouted.
“Of course, but being the only heir of DJS is your sin” the voice replied.
“How is being the heir to my father’s companies a sin you shitty piece!” He yelled and his shoulder was pressed again.
“Ahhhh!” He yelled more loudly.
“You’re stubborn, interesting, and seems you can’t see anything right now, thanks to your night blindness” the voice mocked.
“What do you want?” Starr asked and he laughed.
“I want your mother completely, and I want your father’s wealth” the voice replied.
“What!”
“Yes, your mother is mine though not completely, let’s just say I own half of her and your dad owns half of her, I want her completely and to get that, I’ll have to get rid of Davis himself too” the voice said directly into Starr’s ear.
Anger made him try standing but he was held more tightly.
“Bastard!, Don’t touch my mum or dad!, Else I’ll ki|| you!, Hear that?, Don’t step close to my family!” He struggled.
The voice laughed loudly again.
“You’re brave too, but your bravery won’t help when it comes to this, you’re dead already, two hours from now you’ll be gone”
Starr suddenly turned his head to the right side and attached his teeth to the first thing he met, the man’s arm.
“Arrggg!!” The man yelled in pains as he pushed Starr away from himself.
Starr fell heavily on the ground, hurting his elbow.
“You’re rebellious too, wow!” The man said and bent in front of him.
“You’re the best male pianist in your school right?, How about I make your hands useless before you die?” He said and immediately pressed his shoes hard on Starr’s hands.
“My hands!!!!!, No!!!!!” He shouted painfully.
“You won’t be able to play the piano anymore for the rest of your life” the voice said, pressing his hands harder as blood gushed out of it.
Starr could feel his finger bones crushing
He took his boots away from his bleeding hands and laughed.
“Need to get something done, watch over him till I’ll be back” he said and left the place.
The five thugs walked around Starr as she cried on the floor.
********
Lotus spranged up immediately she smelled the pomelo scent , she inhaled it in her nose and rushed out of the house.
“I can smell him” she said .
“Really?” Nam-Ri replied.
“Just drive with my direction” she said and he started driving.
He kept following her direction till they got to the outskirts of the place.
The scent kept getting stronger and stronger as Nam-Ri drove.
“Stop!” She said when they got to an old shack beside a river.
Over twenty old dilapidated houses are there.
The car stopped and Lotus rushed out of it, delving into she shacks immediately.
“Be careful!” Nam-Ri said but she wasn’t able to reply as she ran, his scent kept leading her.
She ran past one of the houses but the strong scent drew her back.
She took three steps back and kicked the weak door with her leg, it broke down and she stepped in.
“Who the hell are you?” One of the five thugs demanded.
Lotus looked at Starr who’s still wriggling painfully on the floor, anger made her lose it and her eyes started shinning blue immediately.
Angry blue.
The guys look terrified as she raised her right hand to them.
Bright blue lights filled the whole place and Starr raised his head slightly, he saw Lotus first.
“Lo…tus..” he said and his head went down again as pains from his hand gripped him.
The five guys got more terrified as the blue light kept getting brighter.
They went for the door but Lotus stretched her right hand more forward, the first one froze on his spot immediately, turning to complete ice, he started melting to water on that same spot.
The remaining four stayed by the wall in fear, looking at her like some demigod.
She raised her second hand and the four of them froze too, transforming to ice.
They started melting away just like the first one.
Her eyes light went off and she rushed to where Starr was lying.
She knelt in front of him and helped him sit up.
She held his face afterwards and rubbed it affectionately.
“Did you wait for long?, I’m sorry I came late” she said, pouring kisses on his face afterwards.
“I can’t see you, I really can’t” he said and she kissed his eyes.
“You can see me now right?” She asked.
“Lotus” he said, touching her face too.
She looked at his bleeding hands and took them.
“Ah!” He cringed painfully.
She closed her eyes and he just watched her.
“Arii Arii Mannassarri” she said and right in front of him, his hands healed up.
She opened her eyes and met his shocked eyes.
“Who are you?, What are you?” He asked almost inaudibly.
“I’m your mermaid, from river Han” she replied.
“My… mermaid?”
“You’re my soulmate” she whispered.
He remembered how she called him soulmate at the party earlier and as the water from the melting ice touched her, she transformed in front of him and surprisingly, he wasn’t scared or shocked.
“This is the real me” she said, her golden tail shinning.
“Are you…. the girl in my dreams?”
“Yes” she replied.
“You play the violin?”
“Yes” she replied again
“Lotus” he muttered, looking into her beautiful eyes.
Lotus held his face again and before he could wink, they’re already on a bed in her mansion.
She transformed back to a human.
Starr suddenly pulled down her dress from her shoulder, revealing the feather tattoo.
“I’m yours Starr” Lotus whispered and he slowly brought his face closer to her naked shoulder.
He kissed the tattoo and she closed her eyes as he let his lips stay on it for long.
Their bodies got aroused and heat pulsated.
The sparks came in folds this time as he removed his lips from there.
Lotus opened her eyes and immediately their eyes met, control got lost and Lotus pushed him to the bed.
“You’re mine, mine alone” she breathed into his neck.
“I love you Lotus” he said breathlessly and she smiled before crashing her lips hungrily on his own.
Their bodies got more and more aroused as they kissed and instantly, stars adorned the sky outside and the moon sat magnificently among them.
It shone brightly in the streets of Seoul and beyond, the kind of brightness that’ll make you wonder if it’s really the stars and the moon shinning that way.
It’s shinning like it has ever done and everyone kept looking at the sky.
Their lips massaged each other in their mouths and their tongues battled each other passionately.
Their hearts slammed on their chests and connected immediately.
Lotus broke the kiss and her eyes flashed blue shortly.
She started unbuttoning his shirt while he just stared impatiently, breathing loudly.
She gave him a short kiss again and he peeled the shirt off his body.
She kissed his chest while rubbing it, he held her waist possessively, allowing her to do things to him.
She started caressing his body, locking eyes with him.
His skin tingled and rose, his body took an overdose.
When he couldn’t take it anymore, he completely pulled down her dress from her shoulders and her br* became the only thing covering her upper body.
“I’m yours” Lotus whispered again.
Starr kissed her B-__-bs in the bra cups and she held him tightly to herself.
He held the bra strap, ready to pull it down.
She kissed his forehead, nose, then his chin before returning to his lips again.
Starr changed their positions and came to the top, diving his hand into her hair as he slipped his tongue into her mouth and at the same time, he pulled down her bra straps.
