Family and Secrets
The City of Nyx was a metropolis compared to Lux, instead of residential homes and complex apartments that filled the streets–it was mostly filled with condominiums and tower buildings, and they stopped right in front of one.
Lukas followed Junia and Chaerin who stepped into the condo and then boarded an elevator.
This place reminded him a lot more about his human city than Lux ever had, and it wasn't exactly in the best way. It was a little suffocating and cramped being forced into a metal box and then walking through doors that uniformly matched one another.
But the comparison ended when they finally reached the Atticus home.
Junia entered the passcode to the room and then stepped inside.
"Grandmother, I'm home!" Junia said.
Lukas watched Chaerin suck in a breath, before following right after her cousin. And it was at this point that Lukas started to understand why Chaerin didn't want to be here.
"Aren't you early, dear?"
"I… I have some guests."
