Are you alright? You look so worried”she said and Martine looked at her with a sad face.“ I am sorry Mila” he said and Mila wonders why Martine said he was sorry.“I am confuse. I don’t understand. What are you talking about?” She asked in fear, she was scared already.“ It’s your mum” he said and Milan’s heart was already beating fast and she hold Martine’s hand.“ What is about my mum? What happened to her? Where is she?” She asked in fear, Martine hold her hand and tried to calm her down, Martine still refuse to speak and Mila screamed at him and Martine looked at her.“ Your mum was captured by the human this morning” he says and tears fell from Mila’s eyes, she could not believe her ears.“ That is not true. Tell me this isn’t true. My mum can’t be capture by the human” she said, Martine looked at her.“ It’s true Mila, you have to accept the truth, the only thing we need right now it’s solution on how to bring her back to her world”Martine said still holding Mila’s hand, Mila removed her hand from his and she swim out of her room and Martine went her after her and the rest of the mermaids and her best friend Erica and she had stop all of them from following her she said she wants to be left alone, Mila swim to a calm place under the sea with tears in her eyes.In the human world, her mother was taking to the museum where humans are watching her that where Mila’s mother was captured.Isaac Walker was one of the richest and he has a kind heart, he saw on the news on his phone that a mermaid was captured to the museum, he was on a vacation on a yacht when he saw the news and he wish to go to the museum to go see the mermaid and immediately he told the driver of the yacht to turn back that he wants his vacation over, he informed his driver to come pick him up by morning.Martine and Clara swim to where Mila was alone in a calm place, she was still in tears, Clara and Martine tried to cheer her up but she stop them.“ I don’t need you both to cheer me up, all I need is solution on how to get my mother out of the human world, I need to bring her back to our world, I don’t know she must be feeling right now or how they are treating her in the human world” she said in tears.“ I have an idea but I’m not sure if it will work out” Clara said and Mila was ready to listen to Clara’s idea.“ Tell us and if it’s a good idea, we will all work on it” Martine said.“ There is a yacht coming to our side and it will reach the end of the sea by morning I was thinking of one of us could go to human world and know what is happening then we can know how to bring back Mila’s mum back to our world” Clara said and Martine yelled at her.“ What? You must be joking right? You know the human don’t like us, I don’t know what they will do us if another mermaid is been trap. How could say one of to risk the human world when you know one of us is still trap in there” Martine said in anger.“ That is the only way we can solution and also plan on how to bring her back to our wold but without that there is nothing we can do but keep on thinking and hoping but right now I know that she will still be alive because mermaid is a special thing to the human and we can only act fast now” Clara said and Martine had yelled at her to stop talking.“ I guess Clara is right Martine” Mila said and Martine stare at her.“ She is not right because no one among the mermaid will risk their self to go the human world” Martine said in anger.“ I am not asking anyone to risk their lives to go save my mother after all she is my own mother and I am ready to risk my life to go save her fromThe human world, we are all mermaids and we should help ourselves but I could see that we are mostly selfish in our own world whenever a danger happens, we don’t help each other but always hope for the best, I will go the human world by tomorrow morning by that time the yacht would have reach the end of the sea and at least someone will want to rescue me when I am in the human form and no one will stop me not even you Martine” she said in anger.“ I will come with you Mila” Clara said and Mila smiled and expected the same from her boyfriend but he was mute and she smiled swim closer to Clara and huge her with tears in her eyes.“ Thank you so much Clara for being in my side but I am sorry you can’t come with me” she said.“ But why can’t I?” Clara ask.“ Because this journey I am going on might be journey of no return and I don’t want to put you in danger because you have parents and they still need you” Mila said and they both hug.Chapter 2It was already the following day in the morning and Mila was ready to go to the human world and Martine had stop her.“ I can’t let you risk this Mila, you can’t pretend to be a human for a long time, in the human world water can’t touch because if water touch you will turned to a mermaid immediately and they will also capture, human have no mercy and I am not ready to lose you believe me I love you” Martine said.“ If you do love as you claim then you would have offer yourself to come with me in the human world so I can add my mother but I was surprised only Clara offered her self and that is what I called real love, she is the only true friend I have here but you, I just realized you don’t love me but only pretending to love me if you really care for me if you don’t see me for a long time you can prove your love by coming to the human world to look for me” she said in anger and she left her world to the human world.The yacht reach the end of the sea and Isaac Walker walke

Are you not amaze by seeing the mermaid” he said.“ Off course
Chapter 4Isaac drove back home, he get down from his car and he get into the house, Mila also walked out from the room and she bumped into Isaac, Isaac hold her when she was about to fall, they both locked eyes and Mila smiles.“ Thank you for not letting me fall” she said and she smiled, Mila went to the dinning and Isaac was still standing.“ You should come to the dining so we can eat together the dinner is serve” she said and Isaac went to join her in the dining and he thought about what his mum said, Mila could see that Isaac is worried.“ You look worried.

Chapter 5Mila was back to her room and she heard knocked on the door, Mila was scared maybe they have came to looked for her and didn’t find her, she was already nervous and she went to the bed and asked the person who was knocking to enter, Isaac entered the room and Mila was surprised and she stood from the bed.“ Mr Isaac! Have you been looking for me?” She asked and Isaac was surprised by her question.“ No, I just came to check up on you maybe you are comfortable” he said and Mila smiles.“ As you can see, I am comfortable” she said and Isaac went close to her, Mila step back.“ Why do you have to step back?” He asked.“ Nothing. I guess, we are going to the museum tomorrow so I can I see my mum” she asked.“ Yes, but I will not be going with you, my driver will take to the museum, I have a lot of jobs to do at the office tomorrow” he said.“ Ok that is fine” she said and Isaac went close to her and he kissed her on her lips and Mila was surprised, they both stare at each other,
Cheering and applause breaks out all around me. I don’t join in because I have nothing to celebrate. It’s the end-of-term assembly, and everyone else is leaving campus to enjoy their week off. Me? Not that I want to party or have fun. I’m still processing, well, everything. My life has changed so drastically since arriving at Valora. And that’s putting it mildly. I have far more questions than answers.“You coming, Mila?” Isaac asks.I pull myself from my thoughts and realize everyone is clearing the auditorium. “Oh, yeah. Right.”He helps me up. “Everything okay?”“Sure.” I haven’t told him or Erica the latest news. It’s too much. I hardly believe it myself, but it’s true. Not only are my mom and Tobi planning on getting married, Tobi is actually my father. I thought I killed my dad, but it turns out Martine was my uncle. So, if I’m going to be forced to fulfill the Mrs Walker legend, now I have to kill Tiberias—the kind and loving twin. The king everyone adores.That entire mess is
He winks. “You’ll go?”“Fine.” I sigh dramatically.“You will? You won’t regret it!”“That’s yet to be seen,” I mumble.“Let’s change out of these uniforms, then I’ll meet you in the dorm lounge. Tell Erica to join us.”“Can’t. Her parents picked her up before the assembly. They’re vacationing somewhere in the Atlantic and wanted to get an early start.”“Then it’s just you and me. We’ll take my motorcycle.”I snuggle close to him. “I like that idea.”He laces his fingers through mine. “I’m so glad you’re feeling better. I was really starting to worry about you.”“I appreciate that. And you’re right. It’s time to stop moping and start enjoying life. And really, what’s not to enjoy? I’ve got you as my boyfriend, and Earwyn will be out of my hair for a whole week.”He snorts. “Except we’re heading over to her house.”“I hope Mary gives her a second head. Although that would be two mouths instead of one.” I shudder. “Maybe that wouldn’t be such a good idea.”Isaac chuckles. “Probably not.
Isaac parks his bike by a bunch of other ones and removes his helmet before helping me off. I hand him mine and shake out my hair, then take in the sight before me. Earwyn’s house is enormous. Obviously, it doesn’t compare to the castle or the academy, but it’s a mansion. Way bigger than the house I lived in on land. The perfectly manicured front yard is bigger than our entire property had been.“Over the top, isn’t it?” Isaac puts our helmets away. “But it does make for good parties.”“Let’s see.” I hurry toward theIsaac takes my hand. “Did I tell you how amazing you look?”I fight a smile. “Only about five times since we met in the lounge.”He pulls me close and kisses me deeply. “I haven’t said it enough then.”When we pull apart, I’m dazed. He whistles.I have no idea how he whistles underwater. I’ve tried but only manage to blow bubbles.Halfway to the house, I hear music and laughter from inside. Then glass shattering.“The party’s already started.” Isaac laughs.I reach for th
After the third one, a guy who’s rumored to be on his third time as a fourth-year reaches into his pocket and pulls out a bag of something purple and shimmery. “I brought the good stuff.”Isaac catches my eye and nods his head toward the house.Intrigued, I turn my attention back to the shimmery stuff. “What’s that?”A few people chuckle and giggle.“I grew up on land, remember?” I cross my arms. “I’m sure there’s plenty I know that you don’t.”The dude shrugs. “It’s tristle.”Isaac gestures toward the house again. “Come on, Marra.”One girl leans closer to the baggie. “How’d you get so much?”“I have my ways.” He turns to me. “Want to try some, land princess?”“I’m not princess of the land.”“Whatever. Want it or not?”“What does it do?”He smirks. “It’ll make you forget all your problems.”“Hand it over.” I reach for it.Isaac rises. “Sorry, but we’re leaving.”“Doesn’t look like she wants to,” someone says.I lean closer to the bag.“Mila, you don’t know what that stuff does.” Isaa
