Baxter followed the mermaid around the reef. He was as much interested in her as in the smell. She was beautiful and the way her whole body oscillated as she swam was amazingly sexy. Hard to believe only a few minutes ago she was...
And then they were both caught in a whirlpool, as something opened in the floor behind that reef, sucking them in. Baxter bumped his head as he was pulled through the portal, and he didn't follow what happened next.
When he came to his senses a moment later, he was lying on top of the mermaid. Their tails were tangled together and his chest was pressed against her breasts. Baxter suddenly wondered if she was as excited by this as he was, but she wasn't looking at him at all. He followed her wide-eyed gaze and took in the room around them.
They had landed in some kind of restaurant. They were behind some kind of bar, which was manned by a chef whose back was turned to them. He seemed not to notice that they'd dropped in as he reached for a wicked-looking knife. At the bar sat several men in suits. One picked something off his plate, and Baxter could see it was a piece of sashimi. He'd never seen it served in such big slices, though.
The chef finally turned to look at them, a wide grin on his face.
