Chapter: 51.*****Tide knew nothing he said would ease the man's mind, he had to use another strategy and this time he would not stop until Alexander couldn't think his own thoughts anymore. Without thinking Alexander wrapped his arms around the merman, pulling him even closer, their bodies entwined into each other. He moaned again, feeling that snake-like tongue digging into the back of his throat, spreading fire and need in its wake. His legs trembled and his heart throbbed painfully in his chest. Tide deepened the kiss and Alexander groaned deeper, his muffled voice filled the room and his arousal rose, it made Tide lose his composure and before he could control himself he had shifted, and fallen into the bed pulling Alexander down with him.Their lips separated and Alexander stared down at him, with misty eyes he panted breathlessly. "Why do you stop?"Tide looked down to his tail where Alexander laid unknowingly and Alexander followed his gaze to find he was resting not only on

Chapter: 53.*****"Alexander," Matthew rasped, a shudder rocked the defenseless man as he stared into those steel of blues."Y-Yes," he managed his own reply."Combien de temps continuerais-tu à me tourmenter, Alexandre?""I don't understand you when you talk like that..." Alexander replied, his breath caught in his throat when he thought he saw wetness dancing in the depths of steel blues.Slowly, Matthew extended his hand, palm up, long fingers inviting him. Alexander slid his own over his and allowed him to lead him off down the hall to the guest bedroom. Again, Alexander wondered how he seemed to know his way around the house as if he lived there with them. Maybe he had bugged the house when they weren't around, knowing him, it does seem like something a person like Matthew would do.Once they had made it to the door, he pushed one door ajar, and the room slowly came alight to reveal the guest bedroom. He had only been there twice but the bedroom looked a little different from h

Chapter: 55.*****"G-Get back home?" He muttered, helplessly. "Into the Sea?""Yeah, get him back home, he doesn't belong in this world, Alexander, please don't force him to stay, whatever you're doing, you need to stop, it will kill him, please!" "But...""There are no buts, Alexander, I know, I understand how you feel but look what just happened, I think he's getting weaker the longer he stayed here, he needs to return home and we are going to make that happen.""He is...""Your Merman, I know, but look what just happened, Xander, something is wrong, and we are not helping him, he could have died if I hadn't noticed, who knows how long he has been like that while you slept, how did you not even notice?""I-I don't know.""We have to find a way to send him back, you know that is the right thing to do.""Yeah," Alexander replied, defeated. Easton was right. Something was definitely wrong with the Merman."What the..." Easton's gaze caught the shape on the merman's chest where the gl

Chapter: 57.*****"Hey, dad!" her cheerful voice ranged through his ears and he smiled. She had begun to call him Dad after her seventh birthday and he must say he was getting pretty attached to the little monkey, she was the sweetest thing, in all this mess, she made it worth his while. "Hello, love, having fun." he returned and chuckled when he heard her giggle. "Hmm-hmm..." she replied and he smiled. "Is mom back?" she asked. Loud noise filled her background and for some reason it made him smile. She seems to be having loads of fun. "Yes, she is my love, look I will call you again soon, just checking on my little menace," she giggled and he laughed. "I have to go now, baby, be careful and play nice." "Bye, Dad!" "Bye, baby girl." The call came to an end, and just immediately another call came through it was his brother. "How long is it going to take for you to get here?" Matthew spoke into his phone. "I'm running out of patience."Michael laughed at his twin's impatience. "J

Chapter: 59.*****That morning came like every other, nothing specific, just two friends getting ready for work, Tide was sitting in the kitchen bar, staring at both men get dressed while he causally munched down on his breakfast. Easton is the man after his heart and belly, he would say. Once both men were done turning the house upside down, finally set, they stood before Tide as if awaiting his praise to boost their confidence."You both look beyond great!" He muttered as he threw the last of his breakfast into his mouth. "I'm going back into the pool." He whispered, a little sad. "Hey, Hey..." Alexander was holding his hands in place. "Don't make that face, baby, please, I promise, if I see as little as a one beep call from you I'm coming home." He said, giving him a gentle smile that proved his point."I know, but you don't have to do that..." Tide smiled back with a kiss on his lips, he left the house, and through the French doors, he could see him get into the pool and transfo
