This is the story of Ron, who describes his meeting with a mermaid.


Why I am convinced mermaids exist!

To this day, nobody ever believed me this simple truth: Mermaids are real and they live on earth. Though I admit, they are not apparent in large quantities in any area - most of them gather in groups with about three to five individuals - so they are hard to find. But I have contact with one very beautiful specimen called Emily. She told me a lot about her kind. She told me about their traditions and rituals, their powers and myths surrounding their species. I was amazed at how much she knew. Why, you might ask? She was not born a mermaid. This means, that indeed she was transformed from a simple human being to what I have to describe as the most startling beauty I've ever seen. When I had asked her about how she got transformed, she proceeded to tell me some basic facts about mermaids:

There are two kinds of mermaids: Transformed and born mermaids. Both of them are the same in terms of their powers. Each individual can control the water to some extent. Some even have the power to change the weather locally - A gift they rarely use, due to the danger it brings. They also possess the power to sing. Which sounds dull at first. But when Emily told me, that a group of five mermaids singing, managed to embolden a group of sailors to ship through a hefty storm, I grew curious. "What does it do?", I asked. "Our songs let you forget fear, problems and reservation. It is nothing short of the most motivating speech you will ever hear in your life. It is so convincing, that it could start or end a war! And therefore we try to limit ourselves to private audiences, that we can control."

I was amazed by those powers and asked - since she was transformed herself - if I could become a mermaid, too. She just giggled. "All mermaids are female", she said, "You're a boy."

Quite embarrassed by being diminished to a youngling, I tried to counter quickly. "But how do you reproduce, then? Isn't that a problem?"

She blushed a little bit, but then said: "I see. I can't get away without telling you everything. I have to warn you, though. This story might get a little steamy, so beware."

This only aroused me to the point of ultimate anticipation. What was so special about mermaid reproduction? Did they have sex with regular humans. My heart pounded on that idea. Maybe, just maybe, I got a shot at this semi aquatic goddess sitting across the table.

With a deep breath she began to tell her story. "When I was little, I was obsessed with mermaids", she said, "I devoured each story that I heard and had posters of fish finned women on my bedroom walls. With that came my obsession in swimming. I loved it and went to the beach every day. Luckily we lived very close to the ocean, so I didn't have to go that far. Every day after school I jumped out of my clothes and into my black bathing suit and headed for a quick dive in the fresh cold water.

I have to admit. I did stupid things. When I was twelve I swam so far out, that I didn't see the beach anymore. I didn't know how to get back and panicked. It was then, when I first saw a dolphin in the wild. At first, I was afraid. I knew, that dolphins loved to play and they sometimes didn't recognize, that they are hurting, what they are playing with. Although they are pretty smart, most of them don't have a lot of compassion, you know." She stopped for a moment. Her eyes glimmering yearningly in memory of that day.

"The dolphin however was very nice. He nuzzled me friendly and let me caress him. For some reason he completely trusted me. And I did so, too." She giggled again. "I called him Darren. He liked that name. He allowed me to latch onto him and then he dragged me back to the land. But he didn't bring me back to my usual beach. He showed me a new spot, one I didn't know, since there was no road leading to it. The place was secluded. There was never anybody there. And from that point on I always went swimming at that secluded beach. Darren was also there sometimes and we swam together in the ocean. It was amazing

About a month later I looked for a summer job. And after my adventure with my dear 'pet' dolphin, I wanted to go to the Waterpark Reserve in my city. They had dolphins there as well and I hoped, I would be able to work with them." She drank a little water from her glass on the table. Then she looked at me and asked: "Am I boring you?"

I was completely surprised and shook my head wildly. "No, it's very interesting."

Emily chuckled. "Up till now, I haven't told you anything about mermaids. It was just about me!"

"And I liked it. You tell your story well. Please continue", I demanded.

She blushed again, but then proceeded: Okay, since you insist. I got the job in the reserve, but not the fun kind. I had to sort out the good fishes from the bad ones. It was awful. That summer I always came home stinking like fish oil. I was grossed out by myself and the only thing that could change that was a good swim in the ocean. These days I had been given a monofin to satisfy my fanaticism on mermaids. You know, what a monofin is?"

I nodded. "It's like some regular flippers, but conjoined to a single fin. Well like a real dolphins tail."

Emily rewarded me with an admiring look. "Correct", she stated, "I loved my monofin. It didn't make me as fast as Darren, but it made me feel like I actually belonged into the ocean. And he thought that, too. Darren, I mean. He started to come more often and we played with each other for hours. My parents were mad at me. They had me grounded several times that summer. They never contained me. I always snuck out and ran the two miles to my beach. Sometimes in the evenings as well. It was such a great time." She paused again, seeming unsure how to continue. "Am I still not to boring, yet?"

"No", I simply answered.

"I promise to speed up, okay?"

"If you insist."

"For the next two years this stayed this way. When I had school, I went to the beach afterwards. In the holidays I worked at the Waterpark Reserve. The evenings belonged to Darren. I loved him so much. My parents on the other side, they thought it unhealthy of me not to engage in anything my classmates did. I didn't care. I was happy as ever. But then during my third summer at the reserve I got promoted."

"Congratulations."

That was a very weak smile coming from Emily. "It didn't turn out like I thought. I was now tasked with watching over the dolphins during their free time. This seemed like a dream come true, until I actually had to do it. The dolphins in the reserve were dull, diminished by their captivity. Although the trainers and staff always cared deeply for the animals, they were not as happy as Darren was. And every time they weren't tasked with any tricks by the trainers, I could feel them mourning for the freedom outside the fine gate separating their cage from the ocean.

I grew restless. And every evening I talked to Darren about his brethren, which I was tasked to look after. I felt like I wasn't doing my job correctly. As my employer saw it, I was perfect. I had a hand with the animals, cared for them and did my best to let them forget the cage. But as Darren and I saw it, I was doing it all wrong. My job was to watch over them to their best happiness. And this grew in me the wish to let them go freely. Like myself they should be able to go wherever they want to as soon as they are done working.

So my plan was to set them free one evening. I didn't want to let them go completely. In my mind, they would just call it a day and come back to work the next. So I broke into the reserve, equipped with my fin and the bathing suit. And when I approached the pool of the dolphins, they greeted me with their usual chatter. I smiled, stripped myself from my clothes and put on my bathing stuff. Then I cautiously stepped to the gate and opened it. Within seconds the dolphins swooshed out and were not seen again. I was somehow baffled, still floating at the pool's exit. But I still convinced myself this to be a good idea and followed them right after."

"And what happened then?", I interjected sitting on the edge of my seat. I somehow felt that this story would become instantly more interesting.

Emily felt that I was on edge. Her goddess smile savored the moment. I never knew, what she had on her mind back then.

"I got fired", she said, "Of course, the next day I went to work, I was immediately called to my boss, who shit talked me for half an hour. I was still foolishly in belief that the dolphins just came back after their nights out. This simply never happened. They went off and enjoyed their newly gifted freedom. I on the other side was prompted an ass kicked exit out of the reserve with a threat of lawsuit following after. Sobbing I went to the only place, where I could show remorse without being laughed at as a total idiot.

But on that day Darren wasn't at the beach. I was crushed, howling in total sadness. I recognized my foolishness and wanted to drown myself right on that beach. So I swam out as far as I could with my monofin. This was way farther than what I had every swam before. It was dark, when I finally stopped. I was exhausted. My whole body was burning and I knew, that this was my final moment. And still. I didn't want to give me any chance of getting back and so I drowned my fin in the depth of the ocean. Then I floated on my back, watching the full moon shining on me, while I gradually slipped into unconsciousness from exhaustion."

"But your survived!", I exclaimed, "Is it there you were transformed into a mermaid?"

Emily nodded. "What I didn't know at the time, was, how mermaids are able to talk to a lot of water creatures. The dolphins, that I freed, were the favorites of a powerful mermaid called Greigna. She had pity with me and actually changed the weather to let me float back, right into the helping fins of Darren, who once again brought me back to dry land."

"But that didn't change you?", I interrupted. I was so eager to know the secret.

"I knew, you were growing impatient. I was just about to tell you", said Emily. Luckily she grinned. She knew all too well, what a tease she was. "You see, some dolphins are special. They carry the power to pass the magic of a mermaid. Darren was such a dolphin. He cared so deeply for me, that he not only rescued me, but also gave his mark and his live for me to become a mermaid."

"The dolphin died!", I promptly mourned.

"Unfortunately yes", Emily said. A tear suddenly drooled down from her eye.

"I'm sorry for your loss", I said.

"Don't be. He is always with me, you see." Emily pointed at a necklace hanging between her perfectly rounded breasts. I gulped.

"So you have a trinket?"

"Some sort of trinket, yes", she said with a devilish grin, "But I wanted to talk about that later."

"I have to apologize. I keep interrupting."

"Don't worry. I'm almost at the end", Emily promised. She took another sip from her glass and then finished her story: "I woke up the next morning surprised. I was on my private beach, lying half in water. My Monofin was missing, but instead I had a small little tattoo on my foot. It was beautiful." And she actually lifted her foot on the ground and placed it on the table in front of my face. I couldn't help to recognize, that she had very small feet. But this didn't diminish the fact, that they were perfect like the rest of her body. On the top of her left foot though was a small circle tattoo. It was very fine and well crafted. It was blue, but in it was a silver single line that circled to form a symbol of an old scale.

"It's a mark of a mermaid. All the transformed mermaids have it", Emily explained, "We are also the only ones, where you can actually see the mark. The born mermaids can't go on land. They don't grow feet, when dry." She gracefully withdrew her foot from the table watching my staring admiration at her beauty.

"Okay", I babbled after a second. My growing hard on kind of ruining my concentration.

"I didn't go back to my parents after I woke up, but stayed on the beach. I somehow knew by whom I was saved, but I didn't know back then that Darren gave his life for me." She sighed. "So I waited. And waited. But for each passing hour I grew more certain of the fact, that my beloved dolphin wouldn't come back. And after a while I began to realize he was in me." She blushed. "I became horny as fuck", she admitted in a whisper.

My dick was standing like a champ. Holy shit, this story just grew hotter in an instant and it couldn't be any worse timing. How the hell would I be able to say her good bye with such a tent as trousers?

"I masturbated", she said, "I rubbed myself in my bathing suit, while no one was watching on that beach for almost two hours. I now think it had something to do with the affection Darren had for me. I now understand it wasn't just playing, it was courting. And I had accepted. He had rescued me, gave his life for me, because I was his mate. However, all I could think off back then was fucking. I wanted to be fucked. And this thought drove me crazy. It was a curse. It wasn't until I realized that my suit was actually shredded, that I stopped. I felt dirty, weak, but for some reason I also felt love. It was his love.

For honoring him, I had chosen to go into the ocean another time. Although I had previously tried to drown myself, I now felt obliged to honor his sacrifice. When I entered the water, it felt weird at first. But then... I had never felt so at home before. And with that my legs grew shorter and instead my tailbone grew. It felt totally amazing. Within seconds I was a mermaid."

She stopped. Staring over the railing next to us. The ocean was beautiful. And she could access it from her porch. And then, with sudden zest for action, she looked deep into my eyes and asked: "Care for a swim?"

Emily didn't care for an answer. She sprang up and raised her dress over her head. Beneath she was completely bare. No panties, No bra, no hair in the wrong place. My mouth sprang open in excitement and I could feel the tip of my boner, which had hit the underside of the table. She simply didn't care about her nudeness. And for me, since I somehow still didn't recognized, where this whole story was heading, stayed put right at the table.

"You don't come?", she asked, "I have a very special offer for you."

I was still trying not to gaze at her too openly didn't even had the capacity for anything else. She didn't mind. Playfully she hopped around the table and took my arms. She then pushed me up and carefully placed my hands on her hips. I was now so close, that my boner was touching her belly. She was quite a bit smaller than me.

"Have you ever been with a mermaid?", she said in a seductive voice. I was melting. I should have seen this coming. Of course a mermaid would try to seduce a man into the sea. She put her hands softly on my cheeks and pulled herself up. With utter slowness she started kissing me. I was diluted. She was irresistible. And I opened myself for her and was immediately greeted by her tongue, which started a battle with my own.

She entangled herself around me. Standing on tiptoes was unfortunately unsustainable for the lengths we were going to kiss. So her legs wandered up, seeking halt around my midsection. She now embraced me with all her body. And my dick was pressing right on her sacred area.

We gasped for air. "I love to make love to you", I said.

"So come into the water", she answered. She then separated herself from my body. With cocky grin, she drew over her bare vagina. Her hand was glistering from her juices. "I am ready. Get me." And she jumped over the small railing directly into the ocean. For a brief second she wasn't visible. Then she resurfaced, threw her hair backwards. Then she revealed her tail. It had the same silver- blue scales her tattoo had. It was magnificent. Her scales went up to her belly and they also decorated parts of her breasts. But what really caught my attention was the slit right where her vagina was before.

I couldn't resist. My clothes were gone, before I recognized it and with a much more clunky dive I followed her into the water.

"I'm glad you made it, Darren", Emily greeted me, "I hope you will enjoy this."

She swam up to me and took me into an intimate embrace. With her tail she seemed to be even more beautiful and even more graceful. I adored her. She kissed me again. But in my head, all of a sudden a voice awoke. A voice, not my own, that wanted to impregnate Emily. I shrieked back.

"Wait a moment", I exclaimed, "How did you call me?! You called me Darren..."

Emily's face shadowed in regret. Her beauty was sucked in. Still there, but not for me. She suddenly started sobbing uncontrollably. Through her cries, though, I heard her apology: "I'm sorry. I lured you here. You were so interested in myths and stories about mermaids. I couldn't resist. You are handsome and cool. I was imagining you to stay with me. But now I think I might have gone too far.

I was startled. As far as I was she was only caught up in the moment. Through her story she just mentioned her pet/ mate dolphin. But still. There was this voice inside, telling me to pound the shit out of that goddess of mermaid. I approached Emily carefully and hugged her. Her tail was brushing against my feet with each of her smooth thrusts.

"What did you do?", I asked.

She pointed at my neck. "I put his spirit in you", she said, "I put Darrens spirit in you." She buried her head in my left shoulder.

I looked down. There was the trinket, I saw her wearing. Somehow she managed to put it on me. But now it seemed to have tightened to the point, that I couldn't get rid of it anymore.

"What is happening?", I asked.

"You asked me how mermaids are able to have sex", Emily said. She had stopped sobbing. I weird expression had entered her visage: One made up of a lot of emotions. One of love, sadness, sorrow, but also lust. She bit her lower lips. "Mermaids mate with dolphins to produce more mermaids. But transformed mermaids. They have a special possibility..." She paused for dramatic effect. "They can form a trinket with the spirit from their soul dolphin. In my case, Darren. If the spirit is passed on a human being, one of two things can happen. It either devours the human it possesses, turning the wearer of the trinket into a dolphin. Or grant the wearer the ability to become a dolphin in water and human on land. Much like the mermaids do. It's so they can raise children..."

My eyes widened in horror. The voice inside me - which I now knew was Darren's - cheered at the mentioning of children. I wasn't ready for this. I wasn't ready to become a sex slave and stepdad to a love crazed mermaid. And even less - I wasn't ready to become a dolphin for the rest of my days.

"I'm sorry", Emily said. She panicked. Obviously she hadn't thought this through. I could see in her eyes, that she was - much like when she freed those dolphins from the reserve - caught up in the act of over thinking something stupid. While the part dolphin in me just wanted to finally mate with her, the part that was still me saw through her. She was alone. And she needed someone, who was finally able to always be with her. Someone, who understood her, both on land and on water. I couldn't deny that.

"How do I know, if I become a dolphin or if I become a shape shifter", I asked. My voice was calm. I somehow wasn't too bother with the idea of becoming an animal.

But to be fair. The answer Emily gave to me, wasn't helping me either. "The spirit will choose", she said, "Don't fight poorly."

I had no idea, what she meant with that. But I also was quite distracted to be fair. My hands had become to feel pretty stiffly. And on further inspection I saw, that they had began to melt together. With increasing tempo they flattened up to the point, where they looked like triangular rudders. And then my arm began a similar process. Within a minute I couldn't use my arms anymore, they had become the flesh colored dolphin fins.

This made me very instable in water. So I tried to swim back to the railing to make sure I couldn't drown. I didn't make it. While I franticly tried to push my legs downwards, they seemed to just lump in the water. I couldn't feel them. They had been detached from my spine. In that moment, I thought, that I would end up on the bottom of the ocean as lump sack of flesh. Emily didn't know a lot about those trinkets and for my point of view, it was easy for such 'magical' things to not go as planned.

But then my backside twisted. As Emily described, I also felt this weird feeling in my tailbone. It elongated. And with this stretching my skin seemed to blacken and whiten. Within seconds I had the rubber surface of a dusky dolphin. And a quick view down my long spine revealed that I now had a tail with an impressive fin on it. I wiggled it a little and was impressed at how fast I suddenly flew through the water.

But there was something holding me up. It messed up my direction, but somehow it made me feel better. When I looked down, I saw my penis. And it was huge. It looked more like a long twisted cone now. But meanwhile my balls had retracted into some kind of slit. Which was actually pretty good, because the penis alone thwarted me enough to be annoying. On the other hand, that voice wanting to mate started to grow louder. And it demanded this very penis should be inserted into that beautiful mermaid vagina.

My head began to hurt. And with a painful loud crack, it rearranged. I wasn't able to look down my own body anymore. Instead I felt my head changing. My nose kind of went somewhere else. Instead my mouth elongated a little bit to become a short dolphin snout. My neck shortened and my body fused with my head and my tail. I was now almost fully dolphin. And as my eyes wandered to the sides, I looked directly in front of me.

There was Emily. She looked worried. "Darren?", she asked.

I couldn't speak. Only those very cute dolphin chatters. And here underwater, I only exhaled a long low howling sound.

"You are still yourself", Emily stated. Her face lit up. "At least now you are free to go. You are not enslaved."

She was right. I still could feel Darren's voice in my head. It still demanded me to rot this female until it was impregnated with my children. But it wasn't overthrowing mine. I was free. Like a dolphin should be. I released a relieved beeper.

"You are happy about the change?" Emily didn't seem to believe.

I affirmed. This wasn't as bad as it had sounded, when she had told me. I loved being a dolphin. And though I definitely wanted to impregnate Emily, I still liked her. I loved her honesty and her passion for the ocean. I had seen her worst decisions and I could understand them. I wiggled my tail and so swam closer, right into her waiting arms. She held my sides. Her touch felt comforting.

"You would still choose me?", she asked.

I just looked her in the eyes. A quiet beep exited my mouth. It meant: "I want to be with you."

She burst in happy tears and planted a kiss on my snout. "You are a gift I don't deserve."

She pulled herself closer, lining up with my body. I could feel my penis poking. She smiled seductively. Then she said: "I'm not ready for children either." And then she whispered. "That's why I made some preparations beforehand."

I couldn't resist. I love this mermaid. And so I plunged my penis into her waiting opening. She gritted her teeth.

"I knew you were the right one", she moaned. And then she began to pull herself up and down my rod. I exploded into pleasure. She would be my wife and mate. And I felt, how her walls clenched around my penis. I knew, I was her true soulmate. I, together with Darren.

I rutted her, like he demanded. And with gratifying delight I saw her climb up the steps to her orgasm. She moaned loud. And continued to rub herself against me. I wanted her to cum. I wanted to cum. And... it... wouldn't take much longer...

With a huge burst of semen I unloaded myself into her, pushing her over the edge as well. She came so hard, that she jerked together over and over. And with her final moan I knew, how mermaid songs worked. I was relieved of all my sorrows and now knew, what my life would be after this. A life of love and freedom.

To this day, nobody ever believed me this simple truth: Mermaids are real and they live on earth. And that, even though my wife is one. I am Ron Darren Lorias. I am, what's called a shape shifter. And I am constantly looking for any more like myself. I am part dolphin. But you wouldn't believe that either.
