Chapter 49: Backlash

"Are you alright?" Warden asked.

June's body was perfectly fine; it seemed her mind lacked the clarity to command the body. She almost fell forward from the chair even with her bottom resting on it until Warden caught her. Her eyes wandered into nothingness for an uncertain amount of time as she finally blinked.

She let out a shriek, shuddering in his arms. Even Warden's form was tumbling, but he did his best to pull her into his arms and laid her on the bed as she finally calmed down. 

Warden had only seen the vision, but June had interpreted it from the fate marks and even transferred it to him. He didn't think there would be such a backlash, but apparently, he was wrong. Even he was rattled, though not as badly as her. Although his eyes didn't bleed, his blood came down from his nose and ears.

"At least it was not for nothing," he mumbled, wiping his blood with a napkin. He helped himself with water, gulping down the entirety of it in one attempt.
