When Seraphyne opened the door, she saw no one. She went out of the house and walked around, trying to find the culprit who rang her door.
"That's odd. There shouldn't be any children in the compound at this hour. It's also impossible for people to prank my grandmother's house, right?"
Seraphyne went back inside and locked the door.
"Mommy..." A child suddenly ran and hugged her.
She was so surprised that she almost kicked the person who grabbed her legs. Her heart pounded so loudly inside her chest. "Oh god. You almost gave me a heart attack!" She panted slightly.
She looked down, only to find a red-haired boy with odd-colored eyes.
Seraphyne couldn't believe her eyes. The child clinging to her legs had the most captivating, mismatched eyes she had ever seen. One eye was a mesmerizing bluish-green, while the other shone a deep, mysterious violet.
