A mermaid II

When Sinon was done, everyone gasped with shock. Niamh was the first to react

"What? A mermaid?"

A few heads snapped at their table with curious eyes and Sinon hurriedly hushed Niamh to stay quiet.

Yue looked at Sinon with a frown. Her amber eyes flickered with complicated emotions.

"Are they crazy? Even though the mermaid race is rather distant from the other races it's against the rules. How can they auction a living being? It's similar to slavery and slavery is banned in the Kingdom!"

Her voice was sharp yet one could see the concern in her eyes.

Sinon gave her a nod with a sigh.

"I know... I know. I just found out through my brother. He heard it from other merchants. They said this auction is not normal because only a select few individuals with special invitations can gain access to the auction!"

Kyle raised his brow. Just like everyone else he had never seen anyone from the mermaid race.
