'She's so gorgeous.'

'Thoughts about crushes also come my way~.'

'You're annoying.'

'You love me~.'

'Very debatable.'

Donna's gaze shifted to me, causing a pink hue to settle on her cheeks. She sent me a small smile before turning her attention back to her niece. I turned my attention back to Alcina and noticed her gaze darting between myself and her sister. When her eyes stopped on me, I cleared my throat and glanced off to the side, calming my heart rate as quickly as I could. I glanced back at Alcina and noticed her eyes had darkened a bit.

'That's not a good sign...'

'No, it's not,' Isa's voice entered my head. 'What'd I miss?'

'I would say I'd tell you tonight, but they only prepared one room so I'll be sharing with Donna.'

'Oh? And who requested that~?' Aphrodite's voice sounded off again.

'Not you again-.'

'Get out of my twin's mind. This is my space.'

'IT'S MY MIND?!?' I bit back a groan and rubbed my temples.

"Something wrong?" Donna's voice cut through the arguing in my head, making me slowly look up at her.

"Just a little... Overwhelmed," I whispered as she pressed a hand to my forehead. "My powers are in overdrive. I'll be fine in a second."

"You can always take a walk," Daniela suggested as concern swirled in her gold eyes. "I'm sure aunt Donna won't mind showing you around the castle. She's been here hundreds of times! I can help too!"

"Dani," Bela hissed from the doorway, motioning her sister over. "Come here. Cass and I need to talk to you."

"I'll be right back."

Once Daniela was at the door, her sisters pulled her into the hall and shut the door. I turned my attention back to Donna, taking a mental note of the concern on her face. She glanced at her sister before motioning for me to stand, wrapping her hands around my bicep. After saying goodbye to Alcina, Donna and I walked into the hall, the suffocating feeling finally easing up a bit.

"What does it feel like?" Donna asked as she pulled me through the halls.

"Huh?"

"When your powers are overwhelming you... What does it feel like?"

"It's hard to breathe," I sighed before she rested her head on my shoulder. "Everything seems so... loud. Difficult to focus... Not to mention the glimpses of the dead."

"That bad?"

"It's not as bad as it used to be, but it's still jarring to see the spirits."

"...Do you not want to stay here?"

"N-no! That's not the case!" I promised with a squeak. "It happens anywhere I go. Spirits are drawn to the royal family — this would happen anywhere. Your sister and nieces seem nice, plus you seem happier here. I don't mind staying."
