Misgiving(3)

Mortal Realm...

Things went on as usual for the Mou family, after the twins and their cousin returned from the fox clan to their home in Yiting town. Yan Xuequi was busy in the outdoor kitchen preparing for their afternoon meal when she noticed something amiss on seeing just one of her cousins.

"Zimu, where is Yidan?"

Yan Xuequi noticed that the older twin was not playing with his brother as he usually did, that made her to ask his younger brother where he could be, since the two were almost inseparable.

"I...don't know..."

The look of uncertainty in the eyes of the little boy made the fox princess almost panic at the thought that something must have happened to his brother.

Yan Xuequi reached out to pat the head of her cousin, as though to tell him that it was no fault of his that his brother was missing.

It was mid morning and Mou Yaxin their father had already gone out to fish for the day. Leaving the three of them in the house by themselves.
