How could I open my eyes and the first thing I could see was the explosion of last night happening before me.

Despite falling asleep after making a grand escape from yesterday’s chaos thanks to Daman, I woke up and I felt totally disconnected from everything, like I was not really here. I couldn’t shake the feeling that something terrible like that happened.

The world around me was slowly coming back into focus, but everything felt different. But it was also like I was seeing it for the first time.

My body felt heavy and slow like I was wading through mud.

My thoughts were racing and I tried to breathe properly through my nose.

This was torture.

The explosion was all I could recall from last night and

nd the fact that I was waking up at exactly dawn which meant I passed out last night.

I opened the door to my y room and two tall men, broad and wide hanging on each side of my door stopped me from going any further.

“Who are you?” I shrieked at both of them.

Before any of them could make a sound, Luca’s voice echoed from behind me.

“Did they startle you?” He asked.

I turned around swiftly, “who are they?”

“They’re few of your new guards now,” Luca replied.

“Guards?” I tried to breathe.

“Yes. Damon has enforced more protection around you because of what happened last night. The event left you quite in another dimension. You were barely here with us despite getting home”

I nodded, understanding Damon’s intention.

“So expect to be followed around more cautiously. As Damon has pointed me to investigate more on the explosion, we don’t know where it came from or what location at the carnival it took off. So you need to be careful,” Luca addressed.

“Okay thanks” I breathed. Tossing away any brief image of last night that was trying to hinder my morning.

The air around the house became straight. Everyone hardly smiled and when they managed to get a hold of my gaze, they would look at me like I was the most pitiful thing they have ever seen.

Damon was busy the entire time, his cold expression had turned solemn and hard, mixed with anger and frustration.
