Married To The Mermen King Volume 1 Chapter 1

Chapter 1 Give Me Your Breath

Chapter 1 Give Me Your Breath “Help...gulp...” As Lu Mengmeng floated in the Amazon, watching bubbles coming out of her mouth and drifting further and further away from the surface, she thought she must have done something awful in her last lifetime to be born as her parents’ daughter. Why else would they be busy photographing that emerald green boa in the tree while she was drowning? Even though she came all the way to the Amazon to see them in the hottest days of the summer. To biologists, seeing a rare species was more important than their daughter’s life! She was going to peris.h.!.+ I haven’t been in love yet, I don’t want to die! Her vision blurred, and she was fading fast. Just then, she could see someone moving quickly toward her. Mengmeng thought she was seeing things. When she blinked, he was right in front of her. He had a face more beautiful than any one gender could lay claim to; his upturned eyes were filled with pa.s.sion, yet mixed with a sharpness that forbade any disrespect. He looked at her, his red hair flowing in the water like fire. He reached out his hand, gripped her shoulders, then turned his face to hers. Was he giving her oxygen? Mengmeng thought she saw an angel. She reciprocated by meeting his mouth. He was shocked by her movement and started struggling. His teeth shut and refused to open. Mengmeng was angry. He was here to save her right? Who cares about modesty now? Open your mouth! Oxygen mattered more than anything else now, so Mengmeng used her tongue to pry open his teeth while marveling, His teeth were skinny and sharp, what did he eat as a kid? She didn’t care about being modest at all. But he didn’t feel the same way as he fought her. He backed away. He shook his head. He tried to push her away. He wanted to get away from Mengmeng. But Mengmeng didn’t give up, she used her volleyball star skills to the max, locking down on his head, connecting to his lips, even winding her feet around his waist. C’mon, give me your breath! I won’t let go! Mengmeng shouted in her head. He seemed to be stunned by her determination as he relaxed a little. A sliver of fresh air came out of his teeth. Mengmeng was so elated as she tried to stick her tongue inside, but instead, scratched her tongue on his teeth. A faint metallic taste. Mengmeng was mad, was he biting her tongue? Obnoxious man! She retaliated by biting his mouth. Maybe it was a lack of oxygen or control of force, as a warm gush of something floated inside her mouth, mixed with the blood on her tongue, mingling in their mouths. Their eyes met. Mengmeng stared at him. His expression was one of disbelief as he stared back. A moment later, with an unreadable expression, he loosened his teeth as he held her in his arms. Large amounts of air went from his mouth to hers. Mengmeng felt as if she could hear the angels sing and flowers bloom again. She grabbed onto him and gulped air. His tongue was soft and his mouth had a fresh sweetness. As she breathed in air, for some reason, her heart beat faster and she couldn’t think anymore. Why did she feel out of breath again? Mengmeng was faint, but she didn’t want to let go of his mouth. Her whole body felt as if it was flying, flushed, as if she was drunk. In the midst of it all, she heard a cough. “Hey, Mengmeng, Danjanos, what are you doing?” She opened her eyes, her biology-obsessed parents were staring at her with excitement and shyness in their eyes. Mengmeng turned stiffly to see who was holding her, only to realize she was out of the water already. Then she screamed in embarra.s.sment.
