The World of Beasts: She's Got Their Hearts

"Who are you, and how do you know my name?" a youthful voice boomed in the

air.

Analise wasn't staring at where Ophir had escaped to-she was looking at the person who spoke.

"I didn't know you were such a cutie when you were young." She lowered her gaze and pinched the young Gideon on his cheek.

At this age, Gideon was about the same height as Analise, who was considered a tall female in the human era.

He was only five foot six now. Recalling the height of grown-up Gideon, Analise sighed. "You'll grow more."

The young Gideon coldly slapped her hand away with an awkward face. "Don't pinch my cheek."

"Alright, I won't." Analise turned away with a pout. "To think that someone had been clinging onto me, begging to be hugged and pinched on the face....."

"What did you say?" The young Gideon looked confused.

"Nothing." Holding the Purification Bow, she shook her head at him. "Why are you here alone?"

He didn't reply.

Moments later, he fixed his gaze on the bow in her hand, asking, "What bow is this? It seems quite powerful. I didn't see you carrying any arrows, but you were shooting them just now. Are you a supernatural being?"

The corners of her lips twitched. She explained, "I'm just an average person. This is called the Purification Bow. It's mainly used to..."noveldrama

"Is it used on monsters, like the one just now?" The eyes of young Gideon lit up with excitement.

"Yeah. If you say it's a monster, a monster it is." Analise blinked at him.

Technically, he wasn't wrong-Ophir could devour one's soul and take over a human body. It could be considered a monster.

"What about you? Are you a supernatural being?"

"I'm not. I'm an ordinary human." She couldn't help but pinch his cheek once more. "I'm just a pure human female."

"Are you?" He looked surprised and gave her a few more looks.

"Yeah." She nodded.

"If so, how did you land from the air

doubtful and wary turn. "And know my name?"

"It's a secret." She arched a brow in amusement.

In the middle of their conversation, a few males around young Gideon's age approached them.

"Huh? Isn't this the great scientist of Shadowhawk Alliance, Gideon Clarke?" "Did a female actually take interest in him?"

"I wonder if he's pulled some dirty tactics to seduce a female. And he's still a minor..."

"Gideon, aren't you doing your research today?"

"Don't you remember? His crappy research lab is gone now."

The males laughed loudly as they snarked at Gideon.

The face of the young Gideon darkened. Fists curled, he trembled all over allover

Analise squirmed when she heard their taunts. She chastised them, "Aren't you crossing a line?"

She hadn't heard young Gideon's words.

The males turned to Analise

awkwardly. "Miss, did you know that

Gideon lived in a garbage dump and

threw himself into research like a madman? Do not be fooled by him."

Their tone softened when they addressed her, as females were more highly regarded.

Perhaps noticing the dark expression on young Gideon's face, they looked away from him before staring at Analise.

"Do you live in a garbage dump?" Analise turned to the young Gideon with a frown.
