Chapter 44: A Ball of Fire

Anya washed the plates as the kitchen was already cleaned. After going upstairs, she realized she had no idea where the guest room was. While thinking about what to do, she again reached the study room. She didn't want to disturb Alvin in his bedroom so she thought to spend some time roaming around and sit somewhere.

How beautiful this mansion could be, how safe that place could be for her, she was uneasy and uncomfortable. There is nothing like a place called home where one could easily relax and unwind the stress.

'Everything will settle soon.' She encouraged herself with a smile.

She heard the door open and turned around. Before she could fathom the situation, Alvin loomed over her overbearingly and pressed her against the wall without giving her time to react.
