Not afraid of nightmares?

The boss shivered and got up on his feet. Fearfully raising his head, he looked into her red eyes. Just when he was about to beg her for one more time, he suddenly felt an agonizing pain spreading throughout his entire chest. His breath faltered and he looked down only to be shell-shocked. Amelia pierced his chest and grabbed his heart. The organ was beating in her hand when she twisted it around and pulled it out from his chest. The man in front of her was shocked and immediately, he fell to the ground, dead. There was a big hole on his chest from where fresh blood was oozing out.

Amelia scoffed and stopped breathing. She felt the urge in her throat coming back to drink blood, but she knew she would never drink this scum's blood. Humph!

"I hate people like you the most," Amelia sneered and kicked his dead body away. Throwing his heart away like garbage, she turned to walk towards the little boy.

Amelia smiled when she saw the boy sitting still beside the tree. She liked such obedient little guys. Upon observing him closely, she noticed that he was crying silently. Tears after tears were streaming down from his cheek like a waterfall. Puzzled, Amelia looked at him closely and She crouched down beside him. "Why are you crying?"

The little boy sniffed. "T-they…. they are dead," he muttered in a hoarse voice.

Amelia frowned.

Huh?

Didn't this little guy want her to kill them? So, why is he crying for them? Did she something wrong?

"Didn't you want me to kill them? So, why are you crying for them now?" Amelia questioned with a puzzled face.

It was probably the little guy who felt her sharp gaze and discomfort, so he shivered in fear. "I… I…. I didn't cry for them. I am happy," he shuttered, "My mother can finally rest in peace."

"Oh! So, it was happy tears…" Amelia smiled and caressed his hair. The little boy went stiff under her touch before he finally relaxed.

"C-can I open my eyes and see them?" he inquired carefully. He wanted to see their dead body with his own eyes. Only after seeing their dead body, he would be at ease. These men had not only ruined his mother and killed her, but he knew also about the other bad things that these people had done. For a long time, he wanted to kill these people but he didn't have that strength. So, he quietly followed them and got mixed into the gang.

Amelia frowned and looked at the gruesome scene behind her. There was blood, distorted bodies, and a dead heart lying on the ground. Will this little guy able to see a scene like that? Won't he be disgusted or afraid to see this? She didn't want the little boy to look at that. His eyes were too pure to be stained by these sights. However, this was his decision and she didn't want to interfere in it.

"Not afraid of nightmares?" she joked.

The little boy shook his head seriously. As if he thought of something, he bit his lips and looked in her direction. "I am not afraid," he said. "Also, you are not a monster. Those guys are…."

Amelia smirked. This little guy was a clever little ghost. The more she looked at this guy, the more she started to like him. If this little guy agreed to go back with her, then she would train him and throw that stupid Jiang Corporation in his hands.

"Go and see," she said. Standing up, she leaned on the tree, and let the little guy do whatever he wanted to.

The little boy was stunned for a while before he nodded. He removed his hands from his eyes and slowly opened his eyes. He squinted and looked ahead at the scene in front of him calmly. His hands clenched into two little tight fists when he noticed something peculiar on the ground. At first, he didn't see it exactly but soon he realized that it was a human heart. He was so scared that he almost wanted to faint, but still, he forced himself to take in the entire scene. This was something that he had promised his mother and today, it was fulfilled. Today, real justice was done and these dirty people were punished.

Amelia was surprised to see the scene in front of her. This little was scared yet he didn't cower back. While the little guy was doing his own thing, she closed her eye and tried to recall the original memories of this body. Maybe, she can figure the information about this body. She tried to think however, her mind was completely blank.

Sigh!

Forget it. If she can't remember then she won't force it. Anyways, there were a lot of ways to know about this body, later.

"Are you done?" Amelia asked the little boy.

He nodded.

"Do you know me?"

The little boy nodded again.

"Awesome," Amelia chuckled. "Now, what are you going to do little guy? Are you going to go your own way or are you going to follow me?" she questioned directly.

The little boy was surprised. He never thought that she was willing to take him. Before, he would always follow after his mother. After her death, he followed her murderers. And, now when they were dead, he didn't what to do. But upon seeing that she was ready to take him, he was elated. "Will you take me along?"

"If you want to…." she shrugged.

"I want," the little boy nodded. "I'll follow you."

"What is your name?"

"Shen Li…"

"Okay, little li….. let's go."

"Where?"

Amelia smirked. She flicked her fingers towards the little boy. "Come here," she demanded. The boy walked towards her. "Hold on tight," she chuckled before grabbing the little boy. She hugged him tightly and flashed right towards the east side of the forest. Shen Li was terrified and he quickly hugged her. This was the first time, he was holding onto a girl and he was quite embarrassed and ashamed. His face flushed red at the same time, his heart was filled with joy. At least, he wasn't alone anymore.
