Say what? I suddenly feel like kicking myself. Here I am, acting like a little school girl, fangirling over everything when I should be running away. Uh... swimming away. I shake my head and try again "Look... I'm sure you're a really nice person... merman but I can't stay here. Did you hear what I said back there? I have a family and a home waiting for me."
He watches me with a blank look before saying "Now you have a new home. This is where you'll live from now on and I'm now your Master. Stay in this room or there will be consequences. I will have someone help you with your... clothes."
He quickly swims past me, leaving me biting my lip in frustration. I swim over to the opening to the room but pause... maybe I should wait and think this through a little better. Even if I were to swim away... I'm slow compared to them and I have no idea where to go.
