Silence reigned in the dim alleyway as Claudia faced off against the strange man.
He was human but for some reason, she found herself drawn to him.
The attraction was so powerful that she completely forgot her initial goal of escaping the 11th just to follow him.
Her scarlet red eyes scrutinized the man, trying to see if maybe it was because of an item he carried that drew her to him.
But of course, her search yielded no fruit causing her to grow even more confused because as she stood before the man, the attraction she sensed was still there.
"Who are you?" She was forced to ask after unsuccessfully trying to deduce the man's identity.
The man did not immediately respond, instead shooting her a trained glare before replying with a question of his own.
"Shouldn't I be asking you that?" His voice carried with it no malice and instead held tranquility that brought peace to Claudia's troubled heart.
Her lips quivered as she pondered whether to speak.
