MELISSA

    Melissa what are you doing in there, I heard the princess Luciana calling out to me and I immediately swam out of the room. "Am sorry my princess I'm just arranging the room" I said to her and she rolled her eyes sitting down and ordering me to fix her hair.   My name is Melissa and I'm a blued tail mermaid slave. I work in the palace as the princess Luciana's maid. I was taken in as a palace slave when my mother committed a crime. She fell in love with a human and got pregnant for the human an act which is a crime in Atlantica. Going to the shores were prohibited and anyone found were punished severely but in my mother's case she was always going out to the shore to meet up with her human lover after she saved him from drowning they fell in love with each other and she sneaks out to the shore to meet with him. During one of our escapades, she was caught by The palace guard and brought to the King he

 Days turned into weeks and my 18th birthday came. I am so happy that finally I get to be freed from serving my mother's punishment. I sat in my usual resting rock singing out and dancing and twirling my tail happily. "Human world here I come" I screamed inside me and swam back to the palace. Soon the King sent for me and I went into the throne room. "Long live king Lucas" I bowed to him and he know that nodded then I glanced beside him to see the queen." long live queen Adalind" I bowed and she rolled her eyes. The princess was sitting beside her mother and I greeted her also."Melissa today marks your 18th year of serving your mother's punishment after she died weakly without completing her punishment" he said and I sighed inside "I know they killed her know that to make me suffer but it's all over now I'm going to free year and go to the human world."So because you have completed the punishment you are hereby set free;

              (MELISSA'S POV)I woke up and rubbed off sleep from my eyes now that I'm in human world I feel weak unlike in Atlantica where I work all the time without getting tired. My stomach grumble and I sighed. I'm so hungry I stood up from the bed and walked out of the room to where there were big boxes of human rocks that spread down towards the sitting room where we first met yesterday. I gently and carefully climbed down the human Rock and I smiled when I reached the end I looked around the entire sitting room as he called it but couldn't find what to eat. Remembering the sea I smiled happily and immediately opened the door and ran out of the house towards the sea. I reach there and looked around making sure no one was around, I pulled off the clothes he gave me and kept it on a rock and looking back one more time I entered the water and my legs changed to tail instantly.&n

                   ASHER'S POVSitting and waiting for Melissa to be done with shopping, I got tired of sitting as there was no glimpse of her. I picked up my phone and decided to reply my emails and do some other things.After a while, I was done checking out and replying the necessary ones, I returned my phone back to my pocket and glanced up to know if I could atleast see her as she was taking too much time already. I have a meeting to attend to in an hour time.I gasped as my eye widened on sighting her. Woah! Is she some fallen goddess or an angel sent down to me. The outfit she wore, made her look exceptionally breathtaking. I knew she was beautiful but I never imagined her to look this way. In all my existence, I had never seen such innocent beauty.My heart fluttered as she smiled at me, exposing her two very deep dimples. My body started heating up and I released air from my lungs to calm myself d

I tried controlling myself to sit and wait for my leave boy to call me but I couldn't help it. The aroma kept tormenting me.I stood up after minutes of trying to stay put and gently walked to the kitchen.There, my leave boy was stirring the food while humming to a song. Smiling, I stepped into the kitchen and peered at what he was stiring.I tried dipping my hand to pick some of it, he spanked my hand with a big spoon, glaring at me."What are you doing here Melissa?

He raised his brows and I kept quiet, picking my nails."It's not my fault, the aroma was damaging my nostrils so I had to come since you wouldn't call
