Yuki's POV

It's been 4 years since I left this house and even now it still has the dark aura in it. A mansion that looks like a castle of a demon.

"Come on." Naunang lumabas si Luca sa kotse. Lumabas naman ako. Agad kong nalanghap ang kakaibang aura na pumapalibot sa mansyon.

This house has some demon scent on it.

Di ko iyon naamoy noon dahil mahina ako ngunit ngayon ay ramdam na ramdam ko at amoy na amoy.

It's not a bad thing but maybe under this mansion is a secret passageway to Underworld.

Sumunod ako kay Luca. Bumukas ang malaking pinto ng mansyon at agad na bumungad sa amin ang naglinyahan ang mga maids at butler. Pati chef nandito at gardener.

Kita ko ang gulat nila nang makita ako.

Well, no one would expect me to come back. I was stupid back then. Choosing Hera over this.

Tumingin ako sa kisami. The chandelier is the same as I remembered.

Humarap si Luca sa akin.

"Welcome home." Sabi ni Luca.

"Welcome home, young masters!" Sigaw naman ng lahat bago nagbow.

Sinundan ko si Luca nang magsimula siyang maglakad. Tumigil lang siya sa kwarto kung nasaan ang office ng tatay namin noon.

Nandoon sa pader ang malaking painting ng nanay at tatay namin.

"I was about to add your picture here if you didn't come back." Biro niya ngunit parang hindi biro dahil napakaseryuso niya.

Sinindihan niya ang itim na kandila sa na nakalagay sa shelf sa ilalim ng malaking painting. Katahimikan ang namayani sa amin.

Our mother and father died because of the curse that this family has. Everyone thinks that Garcia Family made a deal with the devil to gain power. Everyone believed they died because of that.

They sell their soul for power.

I wonder if that was the truth because the only thing I remembered at that time is fire.

Someone burned the mansion with us in it. We survived because of Luca's ability which protected us.

This is why I and Luca is an outcast when we go outside because people think we're freaks for having a cursed ability and yet I left him alone in this house.

"You may rest in peace in Hell." Sabi ko sa painting.

"What do you mean Hell? Do you believe that they sell their soul for power?" Inis niyang tanong.

Kalma ko siyang tiningnan. "Everyone in this world is going to hell. I believe none of us are good enough to go up."

Napatingin ako sa book shelf sa opisina ni dad.

"Also, I believe there's a lot of people who made a deal with the demons just to get what they want."

Kinuha ko ang isang pamilyar na libro ni dad.

"Hey, you can't touch that! The only one who can do it is the Head of the Family." Hinagis ko ito sa kanya. "What the-"

"Read it. Di mo ba tiningnan ang mga gamit rito? We need to investigate what happened to them if we want to prove their innocence."

Sinamaan niya ako ng tingin. "Of course, I already saw what's inside of this." Binuksan niya ito at hinarap sa akin. "There's nothing on it. We can't read it. Pumunta ako sa ibat ibang tao para lang mabasa ito pero wala akong-" kinuha ko ito at tiningnan.
