(4 days ago, before the attack of Riveria)Erica inhaled and exhaled deeply after arriving at the siren’s world, it was a long journey for her since she has to leave the upper sea where human eyes can see, on arriving to the path she was to take back to Riveria; she was ambushed by King Obi’s assassins who had waited for her long time ago"You came back, we almost thought you are never going to come back even after receiving the messages" The chief assassins said to her"Which kingdom do you serve?" Erica asked them"Kingdom of Marco, King Obi sent us to keep an eye on you till you return" he told her"And why is that? your new king is looking for a new hobby now?" Erica asked"He demands your presence and he does not take no for an answer" he told her"What happens if i do say no? i don't actually take orders from whoever isn't the great queen, you will need a better threat for me" Erica told him"It's about Vashi, your mother" he told her "You wouldn't want every siren to know about
The Mer warriors threw Erica into the cell made of shark bones and locked her in it.Erica was weak to do anything as everything was a nightmare to her, she had found it hard to believe any of it.King Obi paced around his throne room looking bitter"What do you suggest we do your majesty? we can't let them go after what they did, this is the law; it's treason" the chief of the assassins told him"She has until tomorrow night to make her decision or i won't spare any siren of Riveria" King Obi said.(Tomorrow at night)"It's already night, she hasn't said a word" The chief warrior said to him "I know you have a soft spot for her because she reminds you of your sister but this is war time; you cannot let that pull you down, you have come this far for this" he told him"The princess and the queen are under the shelter of the Oceania's, do everything you must to keep them there and send your best assassins to attack Riveria" King Obi ordered"Yes, your majesty" he responded bowing down.
Five years later... Queen Adunni welcomes her little merman, she cried in joy on seeing her baby "He is beautiful, just like his father King Luca" Amanda said in happiness "He is so little" Queen Adunni said touching his tiny hands "I am sure King Luca has received the message, he will be here soon" Amanda told her. "How happy he would be to see his tiny self" Queen Adunni said "Should i inform your mother too?" Amanda asked her Queen Adunni paused for a while as her smile fades "No, maybe later" she said. "You think she is still angry at you for what you did years ago?" Amanda asked "She doesn't want anyone to see her in her week state; she will come around when she is ready" Princess Adunni said. She quickly flashes back to the year she took Erica's deal and got crowned as the Queen of Riveria. Five years ago after thirty days of the queen been held as an hostage... "Due to the queen's sudden sickness, she will have to go to rest; i will continue her reign as your new Que
(Riveria) The queen swims into Erica's chamber. Erica quickly bowed before the queen, " Your highness" The queen stretched forth her hand to her and she kissed the back of her hand. " You may stand" The queen said "Your highness looks beautiful everyday" Erica praised "How about you? you are way more beautiful than half sirens at the sea" the queen said making herself comfortable inside the chamber. Bowing down immediately to the queen " I dare not think such thing your highness, am just a mere mermaid" She raised her head with a smile " Your highness remains the best" she praised again and the queen heart was gladdened. "You are the best warrior the siren kingdom has, raising you was the best thing i ever did" the queen said admiring her beautiful famished long finger nails. "I will forever be indebted to you" Erica said " You can pay me back when you complete this mission I will send you to" the queen said as she gestured at her to come closer. Erica quickly swim clo
Erica watched her mermaid tail's part from each other forming a human leg. she felt disgusted looking like one of them, she has so much despised the humans. She got up from the sand she had been sitting on after she had crawled out from the river into the wet ground, making an attempt to get up; she fell as she was not used to using feet. " What in the siren name do i have to use this feet's" she retorted She heard laughter from behind followed by some voices murmuring from it " Isn't she being slutty? How can she be sitting there with her bare butt?" one of the women asked. There were five of them who were passing by at the beach side, two women in their thirties, a younger girl of eleven, a young man in his twenties and an elderly man. The elderly man quickly closed the eye of the younger girl "Don't look at her" he said " She must be dying for attention" the elder man said again. Erica turned to look at them, they were stunned by her beauty; her long curly brown hair wavin
Once Oma and Lillian got to the taxi station, Lilian said her goodbyes to Oma before departing from a different direction. Oma entered the taxi and gave the driver her address. Few people also joined her before the taxi driver drove off. When they had gotten half way, Oma felt a body lean closer to her ear " You must be Oma?" Oma quickly turned towards the strange lady who was smiling at her " Excuse me, do I know you?" Oma asked nervously " You don't, but I know you don't want to be late home" Erica said which startled the girl. She quickly shifted herself from Erica and leaned on the door. Ten minutes later when she had silently glanced at Erica, it seems she had dozed off, she signed before reminding the chauffeur that she was almost close to her destination. She paid the driver for her ride and quickly left. Her house was few blocks away, it was a bungalow and one could tell her family was quite rich. "Hello" she heard the strangers voice from behind, when she turned to
" What the actual fuck!" Oma shouted drawing the attention of everyone inside the classroom. " Oma, you never mentioned you have a beautiful sister" One of the male students said curiously, the other male students made a weird funny expression when he had said that "Sister?" She said in disbelief as she stared at Erica who was just sitting on the chair with her hand placed on the desk " We are distant sisters and none of you are that close to me to know" Oma lied " Well, I believe that because she looks nothing like you" another teased causing the others to burst out in laughter. Oma gave Erica a cold stare before approaching her, she was interrupted by the sudden presence of the class teacher as everyone stood up to greet. Before the teacher could question Erica, she walked out of the class leaving the teacher wondering who she was. " You never mentioned having a distant sister to me" Lilian said to Oma from the back seat. " S... she is just one of the adults from the orpha
As soon as the class was over. Oma searched for Erica but there was no trace of her " Where has she gone to?" she wondered It's already time for her to go home and once she leaves, Erica will have to find somewhere else to sleep till next week since it's Friday. " Maybe it's for the best" she assured herself again in happiness, she quickly left after Lilian had joined her downstairs. " You must be lava?" A feminine voice said reaching out her hand to the young man standing across the table with her friends. The young man stood there looking at the beautiful damsel offering to shake his hand for no reason. He was lost in her beauty as his friends who were behind continue to make weird and funny faces at each other. " That's the name on the object" Erica said again exposing her palm for him to see what was inside of it " You dropped it" she said again getting lava back to reality. " Oh, thank you; the name was branded on it by my mother" he said smiling nervously and reaching o
