Veronica wanted to move but her right leg was stuck with something.
'Huh?' Confused, she pulled her leg, but it was no use. She couldn't yank her leg any further. It felt like something invisible was controlling her.
She had a lump in her throat. She was scared. Even though it was snowing outside, she was sweating in her room. A chilling breeze could do her nothing.
'Why? Why can't I move?' She tried to walk to the different side of the bedroom. She roamed all over the room, but nothing happened. She opened the balcony door and stepped outside. Even then, she felt nothing.
However, when she went close to the door, she felt an invisible chain lock her right ankle. She was unable to open the door.
She lowered her body and touched her ankle. She felt nothing when she held it.
'Did Arthur use magic so that I cannot leave the room?' The realization hit her like a strike. Standing in front of the door, she was thunderstruck.
