Esme didn't understand why the King would send Aleister to a place filled with dangers.
Aleister, who was sleeping till this moment suddenly opened his eyes and looked straight at her, ''Who are you?" he asked, his gaze sharp.
Esme was taken aback, ''Me...?'' she pointed a finger at herself. ''Uh... How should I put it?'' I'm your lover from the future who should be around 4 years old during this time? Cough... Lover in pretense?
''Come out!" Aleister said.
And it was only then that Esme realized that he was not talking to her. Right, he was unable to see her till now. How would he see her suddenly?
But since the forest was empty and there was no one other than both of them, she assumed that he was talking to her.
Esme turned around when she heard some rustling sounds.
She could see a pair of eyes shining in the dark, behind the bushes. And as if on cue, she saw a pair of shining eyes.
Her blood went cold. Was it...?
