June made it to the top of the stairs. She stood looking at the main house, a powerful and large manor. It stood grand and majestic, screaming power and demanding respect. But to June, it was a massive pressure placed on her from looking at the building alone.
There was an arch in front, standing on two white pillars carved by hand, and at the top of the arch was the Blade family crest. Under the arch was the path that led to the door into the main house.
There was no gate to block, no guards watching, but as she took her next step in, she could instantly feel that she had stepped into the compound.
She wasn't alone in that feeling. Athena, who she had carried, also felt it instantly, a terrifying pressure that slammed against her.
'What is this pressure? It's not threatening like that of Geisha, but it's heavy, pressing slowly on me, showing me that it's inevitable.
I don't want to be here. This is scary. Aren, please, come.' Athena thought, praying in her mind for Aren.
