Chapter 186 - A Cute Little Boy

Azrael and Eros were still talking on the balcony when Azrael asked Eros to roam around the vicinity of the Anderson Family Mansion.

He was hoping that they could see the dark soul lurking around in the area. Eros and Azrael transformed into their human forms in order to deceive the dark soul.

If the dark soul sensed the grim reaper's aura, it would flee right away. Eros and Azrael walked around the mansion.

When they reached the mansion's entrance gate, they heard a crying sound of a child. 

They looked around only to see a child sitting on the ground while leaning his back on the steel gate. He was hugging his knees while crying.

Eros and Azrael exchanged meaningful glances with one another. 

It was already 10:00 pm so they wondered what the kid was doing outside the gate. He should be at home by this hour together with his family. 

Azrael nudged Eros's shoulder, signaling him to talk to the child and make him stop crying. Azrael was not good at communicating and interacting with humans so he pushed Eros to do the job.

Eros sighed helplessly before opening the gate. He walked over to approach the young boy. He was so small but chubby.

Eros patted the boy's head and said, "Hey, kid. Why are you crying? Don't cry." 

The boy lifted his head. He looked so cute even though he was crying with his runny nose.

"I'm starving! I'm gonna die from hunger," The boy complained to Eros.

Eros just chuckled seeing his adorable expression. The little boy was crying because he was hungry.

"Stop crying. I will give you food to eat. Come, let's go inside." Eros smiled at him, extending his right hand.

The little boy stopped crying as he wiped his tears before accepting Eros's hand. The boy stood up beside Eros.

"What's your name? How old are you? Are you lost?"

"I am Sach. I'm five." The boy simply responded, ignoring his last question.

They were now walking towards the house. Azrael was following them behind, observing Eros and the little boy. 

"I will drop you at your home after eating. Your parents might be worried about you now," Eros softly said, looking down.

But the boy just stayed silent. The mansion was well-lighted from the inside so the boy couldn't help but peer at his surroundings.

Upon entering the house, Eros headed straight to the kitchen, still holding the hand of the little boy. Azrael was frowning while watching them.

'Why is a five-year-old kid wandering at night? Is he not afraid? Why did his parents allow the boy to leave their sights?' Azrael pondered to himself.

"Why do I feel that this little boy totally ignored my presence a while ago?" Azrael murmured.

Eros grabbed a piece of chocolate cake and a glass of milk, putting them on the table. Then he carried the boy, letting him sit on the chair. 

"Here, eat this. I am still heating up the corn soup, rice, and the chicken curry," Eros said, patting the boy's head.

The boy nodded with a grateful look in his eyes before tasting the chocolate cake. 

Fortunately, he bought a cake for Selene since she loved to eat sweet food. This was one way of cheering her mood up.

The two gorgeous adult men just watched the cute and charming young boy eating his cake. After a while, Eros remembered the boy.

"Hey, Sach! You were the young boy I met in the hospital a few days ago, am I right?" Eros asked him exasperatedly.

"Do you know each other?" Azrael also asked them.

Sach looked up, moving his gaze back and forth between Eros and Azrael before nodding his head. After that, he focused his attention back on his cake.

Eros and Azrael fell silent, not making any noise. It felt like the young boy would be disturbed once they spoke up.

He finished his cake and drank the milk. When he was satisfied, he smiled while rubbing his small stomach.

"Thank you for the food, mister! I'm so glad to meet you again!" Sach cheerfully said.

"By the way, both of you didn't introduce your name to me," the little boy added.

"Oh right. I'm Eros and this is my friend, Azrael. You can call us big bro." 

"Hmm… I don't want to. I will call you both Uncle. You look old to me to become my brother," Sach said before giggling.

Eros: "..."

Azrael: "..."

"Uncle Eros, is he mute? Why is he not speaking to me?" Sach blatantly said in front of Azrael.

"Hahaha, no Sach! He just doesn't know how to interact with humans… I mean with people."

"Ah… now I know. Don't worry, Uncle Eros. I will teach him."

Both Eros and Sach burst out laughing. Meanwhile, Azrael frowned and glared at them because Sach and Eros were making fun of him.

"Ahem, Eros, what are you doing?" 

They heard Selene's voice and her footsteps. They gazed in her direction. She was surprised to see that Eros was not alone.

"Oh, you have a visitor."

Azrael was sitting next to Eros. Selene heard a child's voice laughing but she didn't see Sach since Eros's and Azrael's figures were blocking her sight.

She traced her steps towards them, joining them at the table. Selene gasped in surprise upon seeing the cute charming child at the opposite side of the table, facing Eros and Azrael.

"Eh, who is this cute little kid? Is he your son?" Selene teased Eros and Azrael as both of them pretended to be in a relationship.

Selene excitedly sat down beside the little boy who was smiling sweetly at Selene. He was admiring Selene's beauty.

"I didn't know that there is a beautiful princess residing in this palace," Sach said to Selene, flexing his adorable eyes and charming smile.

Selene giggled. She felt like the little kid was Eros mini version 2.0. He was good at flattering women. And it was effective since she thought a child never lies.

"Hey, charming boy, are you also an angel just like them?" Selene asked Sach, pinching his fluffy cheeks.

Eros: "..."

Azrael: "..."

Selene had a slip of a tongue, thinking that the boy was an angel too just like Eros and Azrael.
