Chapter 22

Shell was given a sea salt silk bath by lady maids Aqua appointed to her once belonging to his mother. She was out the tub and dressed for bed when she heard pattering of feet and hurried low whispers. She looked out her window 10 stories up from the ocean floor.

Poseidon's carriage arrived. Shell looked at her clock 1 am? The sea hag entered her room everything is fine. Shell saw her nervous what's wrong? Nothing at all. Shell knew she was lying but said nothing. Do we have to dress? No the Deity understands its late but we will have breakfast with him.

Okay. How are you and Aqua getting on? Good--

Sea call me Sea. Good Sea he is fun and gentle so far. The sea hag grinned Aqua is falling in love with you Shell. She grinned do you have feelings for him? I know its been a few days but do you? To be honest yes our attraction is scary I never met a mer man that---

You have chemistry with? Yes ma'am the two mermaids talked while fins swirled in two inches of warm water below them. He is so fine shell smiled. A lot of the Mermen from the void are big and handsome. Why don't the other quadrants know about you all?

It is the Deitys decision we have the largest army in the sea we have fought many battles for the Diety and won. A lot of kings know of us as a reinforcement brigade. They need permission from the deity for us to help Shell. So this is King Poseidon's army? Yes and she was silent.

Yes shell urged for her truth.

Aqua is his son. Shell fainted.

Poseidon arrived to Aqua kneeling raise up my son. What is wrong father? Come Aqua let us talk as kings. Shell Swarthy is here yes? Yes father. How do you find her son? Desirable. Poseidon smiled please something warm to drink. Aqua clapped the maid's ran off.

There is no way to say this Aqua I come to collect Shell and return her to her mother. Father Shell stayed on her own I am not holding her here. Aqua Shell is my granddaughter. Even better er keep the blood pure Father.

You have a point she is so pretty and smart and sexy Father please. I ve never seen you this way Aqua he smiled what does your mether say? Nothing she stays out of my affairs. I can offer up her dowry Aqua. If she had none i'd still want her father.

Aqua kneeled the servants smiled tapping one another Great Deity I kneel as your son heir and king and I ask your for your Grand daughters hand in marriage a d permission to make her the high Queen of your seas as there shall be no Queen higher if she were to be my Queen.

Poseidon looked at the excited staff yes if your Merther and Shell agree and Coral her Merther. Aqua hugged his father so excited he forgot he was using fins he flipped water on his father. Sorry father sorry. It's fine maids rushing to clean him off.

What?! Sassy it's a royal message on royal parchment this is Shells handwriting look! Sassy looked at the note as coral fussed over breakfast.  The Deity said you're not a servant any more. We don't have a replacement chef get Sassy. The butler said you removed the replacement request he told me Mermaid!  So what sass.

Sassy grinned you is Royalty child accept it! We all know it a royal refusing her station won't even sleep in that fine room Bering blessed you with. Bering being serious about you even more now Coral. She ignored her stirring morning cakes.

I know about you and Bering we all do Hehe. Coral stopped stirring what you know old lady. You been sleeping with Bering since the year after his wife passed. That's why he won't take up a new queen refusing women all these years. I knew it when he caught sea croup cough he kept calling for you over and over in his high sickness.

I try and feed him soup and Chile he push that spoon and say where is Coral? Coral he kept calling. Coral smiled recalling the day. Don't you see now? You can marry him now! Don't you see that Coral? You are Poseidon's grand daughter and Bering knew.

You think so? Of course! He wasn't shocked or surprised when you were in a master suite wearing a crown not one question.  Now are you sleeping up there? Cause I want to sassy giggled.  If you want then okay. That bed is big enough to hold you me and Shell Coral.

Falling in love Coral looked at the letter we know nothing about this Prince Aqua nothing about the Blackwater. Coral shook her head in disbelief. Why don't we go? Coral gave Sassy a look. Who will cook? No one cause you cancelled the damn note. I know someone Ill ask him to come beside he been dying to work here any way.

Shell woke with Aqua staring at her from the corner. She pulled her sheets up as love to sleep topless. She pulled herself up her tail feeling heavy. Why does mg tail feel so heavy Aqua? The gravity is heavier here. Its sore. You think from the all the switching? Probably Aqua approached on legs he sat on her bed put your tail on my lap.

No. Why he smiled sexy. Gimme that tail! He grabbed her tail resting it in her lap. He warmed his hands rubbing where Mermaids would tell him it hurt the most. Oh God Shell closed ber eyes Aqua oh lord. She moaned smiling your hands feel so good baby.

Shell switched to legs because Aqua triggered the switching with pressure.  There they are he grinned. Beautiful legs he bent down sucking her toes Shell giggled loud and he used his fins to tickle her soles.
