"It's true, isn't it?" I asked subconsciously.
For a moment I felt abandoned.
I don't want to admit that I have nothing but Agares now. I don't want to describe me so poorly, but it is true. He is my lover and relative, and the only reason I came to this time and space. I am no longer Desaro Wallace, a biology college student with great prospects, but Desaro Agares, an infatuated boy who exists here for Agares.
Agares was stunned for a moment, but he didn't deny it. He froze there holding the blond boy, as if a little at a loss. The blond boy snuggled into his arms, and even raised his head to kiss Agares. With a bite, it's like a canary that is good at teasing people. However, Agares ungratefully threw him to Levjet again, but this time the action was obviously not so rough.
A great sense of loss surrounded me like a tide.
I know I don't need to mind that he cares about his other descendant, he should be a man, don't be so narrow-minded like a bitter woman. But I found that I couldn't do this, because the merfolk see the descendants as "suitable candidates for a mate". This is too hard for me to accept. Agares cannot disregard the lives of his descendants, which means that he will have to act for the other party, not to mention that the other party is much more proactive than me, and he is a beautiful blond boy—that is equivalent to a fat elk courting a lion . It was obvious that the lion would never turn a blind eye to it and run after another prey that would not obey him.
Agares is an absolute dictator emotionally, and the blond boy can fully satisfy this.
I was thinking wildly, frozen there unable to move.
The blond boy seemed very proud of this little change, he suddenly cast his eyes on me, shook the blood on his arm, as if he was going to have a fight with me (of course I don't mind beating him up): "Hey, black-haired boy, are you also his descendant?"
"No, I'm just a prisoner." I spit out a few words angrily, holding back the anger that surged up, "A prisoner without human rights. Also, I'm not called a kid, I'm called Desaro, you little golden retriever. "
"Is that a plaything?" The blond boy shrugged provocatively, and raised his cinnamon-colored lips to look at Agares, "I heard that mermaids like pretty boys, but your appearance doesn't seem to match me Poseidon."
"Damn it, shut up! Do you want to get spanked?"
I lifted my leg and threw a splash at him, I swear if Levjet hadn't been protecting him, my fist would have hit him. I don't know where my calmness and self-restraint went, but I couldn't stand seeing the way he looked at Agares, it felt as if my beloved wife was about to be touched by someone. I was so angry that my chest felt like it was going to explode.
"Desaro, come here."
Agares groaned behind him, and then my legs were caught by the tail of the fish attacking from the water. I felt stubborn and stomped on him hard, and swam away.
At this moment, suddenly, there was a loud rumbling noise from above, as if a heavy bomb had exploded outside the cave! In the next second, the entire cave was shaken like an earthquake, and gravel, large and small, fell like hailstones in an instant, stirring up waves in the underground river. Agares let out a hiss, and all the mermaids inside and outside the altar scattered in a flash, and he swooped in my direction.
I immediately swam towards him, but my body was pushed out several meters by the surf, and I hit a rock all of a sudden, my back was almost smashed to pieces. Enduring the pain, I raised my arms to cover my head, so as not to be killed by the gravel. The body seemed to be smashed in the stone rain, and the vision was also cut to pieces.
"Desaro!" I heard Agares' eager roar not far away.
"I'm here!"
I responded at the top of my voice, dodging gravel in the water with difficulty. But in the chaotic darkness, I couldn't tell where he was. The roar from above became louder and louder. It seemed that the whole cave could collapse at any time. The falling rubble became denser, cutting my flesh like the tip of a knife. I covered my head and ducked into the water, forcing myself to calm down, calling Agares' name loudly, and he responded to me in a near-boiling noise. A sound of breaking water came towards me from far and near, and I immediately saw the direction of Agares' figure, and swam desperately towards him with my arms and legs.
"Agares!"
But when I was only one or two meters away from him, I suddenly found a pair of delicate arms encircling his arms, and the blond boy shrank back behind him, trembling timidly.
This situation proves that Agares rescued him first and then came to me.
The moment this idea popped up in my brain, I couldn't help but froze there. There seemed to be a big crack in the chest suddenly, and the heart was engulfed by a sudden vortex, dragging towards the cold abyss. My body seemed to be frozen in an instant, and even when the gravel hit my body, I didn't feel any pain at all. I wanted to cry, but there were no tears. I shook my head and couldn't help but smile bitterly.
As if to match my desire to not want to see this scene at this moment, a broken boulder suddenly fell in front of me, blocking my way. I dodged in a daze, stumbled, and suddenly seemed to lose sight, hearing, and touch. Everything around me turned into nothing, only the cracking pain in my chest was clear and real. Just at the moment when I lost my mind, I suddenly felt a pair of powerful webbed claws grabbing my arms, and a ghost-like black figure floated out of the water in front of me. stones.
"Grandpa..." I trembled involuntarily, staring blankly at the face that was much younger than I remembered, feeling that he was both strange and familiar.
In the darkness, a pair of black pearl-like eyes shone with gentle luster, staring at me deeply, "I am not your grandfather, Desaro. I am your real father."
I heard him speak softly, his arms hugged me tightly, and then a stream of moist breath disturbed my face, and the lips were pressed down by the soft two petals.
Father.
For a moment, this word filled my mind, my brain buzzed, and I was stunned.
"Get away from Desaro!" A roar suddenly exploded in the chaotic darkness.
In an instant, the water splashed everywhere, and Levjet was thrown away by an astonishing force, his legs were dragged forward by the fish tail, and the oncoming figure locked me firmly in my body. Between my arms, my face was completely enveloped by the familiar fragrance. A pair of webbed claws trembled and caressed my back, rubbed into my hair, and pressed my head against my stone-hard chest. Then my body plunged into the water with his arms leaning forward, the thick and strong fish tail swung under my body, cutting a channel between more and more gravel in the water, leading me Swim rapidly in a certain direction.
I couldn't feel how fast Agares was swimming and where he was swimming, I just felt the water rushing around me like a gust of wind, the gravel that grazed the skin gradually became rarer, and the waves became turbulent, throwing us away Up and down. My thinking also seemed to be washed violently by the sea, and my nerves were as slow as the resistance of the water. The situation just now was constantly replaying in my brain, and I was almost suffocated. Unknowingly, the eyes suddenly became brighter, and the darkness was replaced by the magnificent sea surface sprinkled with sunlight, and Agares' swimming speed slowed down a lot.
Coughing off the seawater that choked my nose, I poked my head out from under him panting, just about to take a breath, but was startled by a fluffy ball on Agares' shoulder.
After taking a closer look, I saw clearly that the blond boy had been lying on Agares' back, occupying the position that should belong to me. His arms were covered with scars from being smashed by the rocks, his head drooped, and he seemed to have passed out, but he still hugged Agares' neck tightly, as if he was the most reliable person in the world. exist. hell.
My mood was extremely complicated in an instant, and I felt both angry and helpless. Although I hated this golden retriever who robbed Agares from me very much, I never reached the point where I wanted him to die. Maybe I should be more open-minded and give up my seat. After all, Agares gave priority to saving his new descendant, no, it should be called the new favorite.
Thinking of this, I felt the crack in my heart grow wider.
I struggled vigorously, subconsciously trying to push Agares away, but was tightly held in his arms. I had no choice but to turn my head away to avoid staring at him, but the figure of Levjet not far away ran into my sight unexpectedly. He was staring at me, his eyes shining slightly against the sunset. This made me suddenly recall the kiss in the dark, and I gasped in disbelief.
"Father?" I couldn't help murmuring.
Before the words finished, I felt Agares shaking my arm like a twitch. The back of my neck was suddenly pinned down, and my head was forcibly turned away. Agares lowered his head and bit my lip hard. His fangs pierced my tongue, sucking my saliva and blood madly like a vampire, as if to completely erase the memory of Levjet kissing me. His arms wrapped around my waist with such strength that he almost broke me into two pieces, and his webbed claws rubbed my back and buttocks indiscriminately, as if he wanted to tear me apart and swallow me into his stomach.
I struggled to slap his arm, but my hand fell on the delicate and soft limb around his neck, which made the emotions accumulated in my chest erupt like a volcano. For a moment, I didn't know where I got so much strength, I bent my knees and pressed hard against Agares' scales. This trick seems to be equally effective for mermen and men. Agares' arm suddenly loosened, and I took advantage of this moment to break free from his iron-like embrace.
"Let's save your energy for another descendant of yours! Look, he needs you to heal his wounds!" I roared with a thick neck, slashing a few meters away with my hands and feet. However, it was futile to try to escape from Agares at my swimming speed. In the blink of an eye, he circled in front of me and stretched out his webbed claws to grab my arm. A silver arc flashed across my eyes, and my body was caught off guard and pulled backwards, falling steadily into a moderately strong hug. I felt the hands (of course they should be called claws) that used to play the piano to me when I was a child gently caressed my cheeks: "Are you hurt, my little Desarro?"
I shook my head hastily, staring at Agares' blushing eyes, and said mysteriously, "Take me out of here, grandpa."
"You should call me father." He whispered softly in his ear.
