ATHENA’S POVNight had fallen, and I was back in my room. What the other maid had said was still replaying in my head, and I pondered on it, thinking about what Alpha Jeremy was probably doing in his study that evoked such great suspicion and fear in the maid that went to serve tea.I had also felt something wrong with the atmosphere, earlier. Could it be as a result of Alpha Jeremy’s weirdness? I shook my head, and moistened my lips as I cuddled my bed cover, and stared into blank space. My eyes were getting heavy now, and in any moment from now, I could sleep off.After for what seemed like half an hour ago, the aura in the room changed. My ears became firm to pick up on any strange sound. And there was it, I could hear light steps around my room, but I was too scared to sit up or budge.I held my bedcover tight, and hoped that Jane would interrupt or sort, but it didn’t seem like she was going to come here in the middle of the night. Then the air became chill, and cold, making me h

ATHENA’S POVSoon, we got to Daniel’s house, and then he held my hand and carried my luggage for me as we walked into his house. I could tell his house was an expensive one because of the smell that hit me, and the surrounding aura.“Are you hesitating? You’re walking a bit slower than usual.” He said, and I could tell he was staring at me.“No. It just feels like I can see the house. Like I mean, I’m trying to observe.”“Oh, I see. That’s cool.”I could tell the walls were painted white as I knew just the scent it emits, and the unique soft texture it had. Without asking questions, even a blind person could observe that he had a chandelier, and definitely, it had pretty lights that illuminated the house with just the perfect color. He led me right to the sitting room, and then helped me to sit comfortably.“Wow.” I exclaimed softly.His sofa felt plush and expensive, and I was stepping on a marble floor, definitely.If I could see, I know I would be right to say his house was an exp

ATHENA’S POVI jerked off my seat as I realized that it was truly poison, he was about to add to the omelet, or probably he had added it already.“What’s going on?” He asked, in a curious tone.“Did you just add poison to the omelet?” I questioned, with raised eyebrows.“Uhm… why do you think so?” he asked, acting like he wasn’t aware of what he did.“I didn’t just think so. I can smell it. Hold on. If I couldn’t smell it, are you going to allow me to eat it?”“Yes.”His answer dug deep into my heart, and left me speechless. I couldn’t say a word as I was so pained to my heart, and what was more frustrating was that I wanted to just leave, but I didn’t know my way around, even with my cane.But I couldn’t just stand there like a moron. I held my cane, and tapped it lightly as I tried my best to avoid walls, and anything that could trip me. I couldn’t even tell where I was, in his house anymore, and I just knowingly fell to the ground helplessly, and started crying.Then I heard Daniel

ATHENA'S POVI fluttered my eyes open as I came back to consciousness. Although, it didn't make any difference, but I could feel I was in a different world.I managed to stand to my knees, and coughed out. Then I used my hand to touch the ground, in search of my cane.“Here, Athena.” Daniel handed over the cane to me.Then I collected it, and leaned on it to stand.“Thanks. Are… are we there yet?” I asked, out of curiosity.“Yes, we are.” “Alright then. So, what's next?”“We have to walk a bit further, and we'll know where next to go.” Daniel responded, and he held my hand as we moved slowly.I was more anxious at the moment. I knew we were already at the land of fear and as we were moving futher and deeper into the land, anything scary could come up.I still felt insecure, despite the fact that Daniel was with me. What was I going to do if something huge comes our way? Just run?Or what if Daniel felt that he was too slow because of me, and then decided to leave me.“Don't think too

ATHENA'S POV“What? What do you mean by we are in a danger hut?” I asked, beginning to fear that we had just gotten from frying pan to fire.“This is a hut where crazy crocodiles stay.” Daniel responded in a low tone.“Crazy? Why are they called crazy?”“They sleep deeply, but the moment you wake them up with noise, they would track and hunt you until you're out of the forest. And that can make it difficult for us to focus on our destination here, and the little things we are to take note of. So, don't make noise.” I nodded my head, and pursed my lips as tight as I could. There was no way I would want a bask of crocodiles after me. Not when I couldn't see, which would also be a heavy burden on Daniel.“As soon as I perceive that the monster is gone, then we can make our next move.” Daniel spoke, and I nodded in response.About what seemed like thirty minutes passed before Daniel said it was okay for us to leave now. We carefully walked out of the danger hut, and ensured we attracted
