บท 28: Watching Her

"Alpha! You're back!"

"Welcome!"

Killorn glanced up just as they crossed a drawbridge. The bridge led to an enormous front yard lined with armed guards. Beyond that were two sets of metal gates, one that went straight down and another that went from left to right. They passed it straight through two sets of metal gates, but people were already greeting them.

"O-oh how pretty…" 

Ophelia was left speechless at the luxurious mansion before her. There was enough golden decoration to put the sun to shame. Her eyes widened at the expansive estate of polished marble, columns, and glistening windows. When she walked through the gates, the serene sound of flowing water greeted her, for the fountain ran even amidst the frigid winter.
