Redirect not generated when protected page accessed directly

[ColtonProvias]

Version

v4.5.3

Reproduction link

https://github.com/ColtonProvias/auth-issue

Steps to reproduce

1. Clone the linked repo locally.
2. Run yarn install
3. Run yarn run dev
4. Go to http://localhost:3000 and try clicking both links on the front page.
5. Or try going to http://localhost:3000/protected directly.

What is expected ?

Accessing /protected should automatically redirect to /login, and the page should say that you were redirected from /protected. This should work either directly or through both links.

What is actually happening?

When accessing the page directly or via the non nuxt-link link, no redirect is provided to the login page. They should also generate the same result as accessing it via nuxt-link.
