Chapter 516: Love
“My, oh my. Lin-Lu’s worries were right after all. You really are more than any of us could have imagined.”
Stryg turned to the voice. A pair of iridescent eyes were watching him from the shadows of the wreckage. A woman, no, a giant, stepped out from the shadows. Jade hair, almost as pale as snow. Warm brown skin. And curling pink lips
A capelet of black feathers hugged her shoulders and a dress of darkness was wrapped around her body.
Stryg couldn’t help but stare in mute surprise. She was the most beautiful woman he had ever seen and yet he couldn’t help but feel terrified at her presence. He recognized those eyes, irises constantly shifting through infinite colors.
“You’re the Monster.”
She smiled wryly, “Oh, child. We are both Monsters.”
Stryg frowned. “You’re The Monster in the Dark.”
She took off her capelet and tossed it over him. On his small frame, the capelet of feathers was more of a cloak. “I am Ananta. I believe you and I are due for a talk.”
“What do you want?” he asked warily.
