The room was dark except for a small bulb that was hanging on the ceiling, the child was huddled in the innermost corner, his entire being trembling, his eyes locked on the ugly reptilian face that was sticking out from between Wu Genji's chest and almost vomited out because of sheer fear.
A few weeks ago, he snuck out of his room to eat chocolate ice cream …his mother was pretty strict and his father was even more strict when it came to eating desserts at night, that was why Wu Haito left the safety of his room and was all set to go to the kitchen and eat the ice cream that his grandmother brought for him in the morning but then he heard muffled giggles and happy moans coming from his little aunt's room along with the jolly giggles, there were also loud exclamations like —— "It's so tasty," " I want to eat more," " A bit more, I want to eat a bit more."
Wu Haito was long spoiled by his family and his imagination was quite rich so when he heard his little aunt say such words, he thought that she smuggled his ice cream and was eating alone that was why he hurriedly barged inside his aunt's room but never …not even in his wildest dream did he think that he would find his little aunt eating a child! In fact, it wasn't his aunt who was eating the child but the grotesque face that was sticking out of her chest nonetheless something weird was happening in his house! He wanted to call his parents to come and see what his little aunt was doing but before he could even make a noise, his aunt had her fingers around his throat and dragged him inside her room.
Ever since he has been locked in this room when he came here earlier—— the room was filled with children but now, Wu Haito's eyes flickered around the clothes of children that were piled in the corner of the room along with a few bones. His aunt ate every one, now only he was left …Wu Haito shivered as he watched his aunt come closer to him and sobbingly said, " Please little aunt, little Haito…little Haito wouldn't say a thing to mommy, please let me go."
He didn't want to be eaten like the other children, he knew that he couldn't run away from this place …all he could do was plead with his aunt asking her to be kind to him. After all, he was her little nephew—— his daddy was her second brother, if she kills him then his daddy will be sad, wouldn't he?
" Let you go?" Wu Genji's face twisted as she crouched down and gripped Wu Haito's face with her hands and sneered, her eyes going as cold as ice, " If I let you go then what will happen to me? Little Haito aren't you aunt's good nephew? So why don't you give me your lifeline, you know how sick your aunt is right? If you do then I will surely keep your memory alive in my heart. I promise."
" Aunt…Aunt please…" Wu Haito was so scared when he saw the face covered with scales inching closer to his, he was so scared that his vision turned dark as he shook his head and almost let out a scream, if not for Wu Genji clutching his neck, he really would have screamed out in agony.
"It's not my fault Haito," Wu Genji whispered sinisterly, her voice cold. "It is yours, who asked you to leave your room after midnight? You could have barged into my room in the morning but no, you chose to do so in the middle of the night…you even saw my secret that I have been hiding for a long time… how can I let you go now, hmm?"
" Aunt … Aunt…" Little Haito tried to scramble away but he didn't even get two steps away from Wu Genji before the face that was sticking inside Wu Genji's chest elongated like a snake and hissed at the little boy, "Youuuu lookkk fine boyyyy! Your parents did a great job plumping you up."
" No… please I …am sorry, please little aunt…" Wu Haito had tears running down his eyes as he clasped his hands together like he was praying and looked at his aunt. " Please…let me…" he didn't get to finish what he wanted to say as the elongated face stuck him fiercely like a snake attacking its prey.
" No…stop …"
" Save me …!"
" I am sorry…"
" A…Aunt…"
As the scent of blood thickened in the room, Wu Haito's struggle stopped and finally the light in his eyes vanished and his hand dropped to the floor with a thud.
Seeing that the child was dead, the snake-like face giggled happily, her face lit up with excitement and sheer delight. " Aha, now I can have my meal, it has been so long! I thought I was going to die of hunger!"
The face elongated even further and opened its mouth so wide that it could fit in an entire human with just one bite, however, the face took its sweet time as it gobbled Wu Haito. Bit by bit the little boy's body was slurped inside, once the body was gone, the face spat the clothes he was wearing along with a single finger and burped.
"Oh, he tasted really good … children grown with love and care really taste different don't they?" The snake face happily giggled.
Wu Genji stared at the long neck that was stretched out of her chest, she let the demon dance around a little before retracting it back inside her, then crouched down and picked up the small palm size finger. Once she was done, she turned around and left the room, not even the slightest flicker of grief could be seen on her face even after murdering her only nephew. She strode towards the mirror in her room as she raised her hands and touched her rosy cheeks before looking at her lifeline … it was a bit larger than the last time.
