In love with a mermaid

Chapter 1

Chapter one: I wish I had a child

Frank Chester's pov

Our living room was nothing fancy it was just the regular kind of living room, a bunch of sofas and a television, which just faced it opposite, some flowers and paintings hung on the wall to beautify it. My wife and I were seated at the sofa scrolling through pictures of babies, in her phone, she was trying to make a selection of babies since we had to choose what our baby was going to look like.

We were trying IVF this time since we had tried every other method to get pregnant but non of it was working this was our last chance, and we both hoped that it would he successful. “i'm scared, frank what if this dosn't work, or frvyest we took dosn't come out successful that we can proceed with the IVF" she said in a worried tone.

“you can't think like that Mary it'll work youll be a mother you'll see I'd do whatever it takes for you to carry our own child" I said and she smiled, and pecked me lightly.

The next day at the hospital, a test was carried out see if Mary would be able to perform the procedure. She came out of the hospital ward, and sat by me, “what did the doctors say?" I asked her enthusiastically, “well they are done with the tests but it's the results that we are expecting", she said looking quite nervous.

“itll be fine don't worry everything is going to be fine" I said as she just looked at, “mr and Mrs Chester the doctor would see you now" a lady all dressed up in white said we both stood up and walked to the office in front of us, opening the front door revealed a well arranged office painted white, a brown table at one end with some books untop of it, a young man sat behind it, on a reclining chair.

From his garb you could tell that he was the doctor he was surprisingly young, He motioned for us to seat down, and we did he looked at the both of us, but his face wasn't bright he adjusted his glasses, and looked at us straight in the face, me and Mrs Chester im sorry but the procedure wouldn't be successfully carried out on your wife.

It is going to cause more damage to her reproductive organs given the state that her body is in" he said I felt like an anchor had been placed in my stomach I started wondering how my wife was going to be feeling, I could see tears well up in her eyes as she struggled not to she's them.

We were driving home, she had her head at the side of the car window sobbing she didn't say anything as we drove but deep down I was angry, I didn't like my wife to feel this down, I saw the beach as we drove by, the waters were roaring as it foamed upon reaching the shore.

I pulled my car into the beaches parking lot she still didn't say anything, I got down and opened her door for her but she didn't make a move to come out of the car, “come on Mary it'll help get your mind off things a bit just come with me please" I pleaded as she came out and we were walking around the beach, I was thinking of how I was going to take her mind of everything.

“fun fact did you know that this body of water is connected to the Mediterranean ocean?" I said as she just looked at me ad smiled, she knew what I was trying to do, sobshe decided to play along, she pulled me into the water as we got closer she took of her shoes, and so did it's cold foam crashed into our feet, making me shiver a bit, we stared at the tides of the waves as it flowed and ebbed crashing in on itself continuously, the sun was bright but not hot it reflected the time, it was around 5 o clock in the evening, a lady really beautiful, with brown curly walked up towards us, “its a beautiful day for a wish isn't it" she said said as they both looked at her in awe.

“right here right now I promise you that whatever you wish for will be granted,by the queen of the ocean" it didn't hurt to try so, I wished silently that my wife would have a child of her own. I didn't say that out loud, but deep in my heart I meant it.

Deep in the ocean; the Ocean queens pov

A cove of mermaids all having different shades of tail colour some blue some green, some red, I was sitting in a throne that looked like a clam shell, my female servants were lying down comfortably beneath my feet, while my make servants were standing guard at the entrance into my chambers, and by the side of my throne.

An empty seat could he seen beside me, it was for my daughter, misha; she wasn't here yet she is probably with her friend Mariel.

Mariels pov

A room could be seen, it looked like it was carves into a rock, inside its walls was laced with glowing algae that gave the room a very beautiful, yellow look my friend Misha and I just relaxed near the mouth of the rock which served as the entrance.

Misha and I had been together since we were little, but she was royalty and I was born to serve her, she wasn't a cruel and distasteful person as many other people here are, she was kind turned me from nit just being her maid but her best friend.

The gigantic orb that I had had started to glow white, then flicker off we all here knows what that meant, I looked at the guard behind me, he was betrothed to my daughter, “tristan go fetch my daughter, we are about to grant a wish" I said curling my lips into a faint smile.

She looked like she had something on her mind, and it looked like it was weighing her down, “princess misha, is any thing bothering you, you look as distant as a thousand stars, from the earth" she stared at me revealing those beautiful aquamarine eyes, her red hair just floated up because we lived under water, my black hair however didn't float, it was tied in place, with series of ribbons laced with precious stones.

“the other day I swam up to the surface, when I heard one of their steam engine, I went to take a look, it was a black tall and very huge mass of metal that surprisingly didn't sink, I didn't know that metal could float" she said excitedly, “princess Misha the queen would he furious if she knew that it went up there, you should be careful so you wouldn't get hurt"

I tried to advise her, when we heard sounds of someone swimming in our direction, I caught a glimpse of a purplish and lavender tail, there was only one family in the whole of the kingdom that had that color of tail, I knew instantly that Tristan the princess betrothed approached us from the look on her face ahe knew it too, but I have noticed that she isn't too keen in seeing Tristan, I don't think she likes him.

He had a bright smile in his face as he swam closer to the both of us and focused his attention solely on Misha, “the queen sends for you", he said as he came closerband pressed the front part of his body on Misha, her face looked like she was holding in her breath, she pulled away from him as fast as she could but he held her hand, “we would soon get married I wonder if you would be able to run from me then" he said with an evil grin on his face.

She struggled to free herself from his grip, but he held her firmly halting her movement, she stared at him with disgust in her eyes.....
