Aurora’s POV:“Baby, it’s okay… stop crying!” Klaus said for the umpteenth time today but I couldn’t bring myself to stop crying.Whenever I closed my eyes, I only saw one image, and that was of my father, cold and stiff in bed. I hugged Klaus tighter, sniffling as I stuttered;“I… I can’t!”And that was the truth, I truly could not. I couldn’t do or think about anything else besides him, and I even felt worse because I had tried to use my powers to make him better but nothing had happened.I narrated my ordeals to Klaus who in turn simply hugged me still. If anything, he looked like he felt worse on my behalf than I did. Suddenly, he pulled me at arm's length, his expression was troubled as he glared at me.“What did you just say?” He spat.I looked up at him in confusion. I had no idea what he was talking about. There was a mix of fear and confusion on his face. Without waiting for what I had to say, he slowly moved away from me.“What is it?”“What isn’t it?” He snarled back. “You j

Aurora’s POV:Hand in hand, I walked up to the guest room with my mother beside me. She was quiet the entire time, and as much I hated to say it, it hurt me. It hurt because I didn’t know what to say to her or do for her to make her feel any better. She shivered as the effects of jumping into the water began to set in, and quietly, I draped my shawl over her shoulders. She raised her eyes to look at me but I pretended to be so lost in thoughts, she looked away.When we arrived at the guest room, I pushed the door open and stepped in first. She tentatively followed my lead, gasping when she was met with the vastness of the space. I took my time opening all the curtains and even lit up the fireplace to ensure that she would feel the warmth.“Klaus said you can stay here for as long as you like,” I said softly. I was still very cautious around her as she was obviously in more pain than I was. “…there are a few things in the closet that you can use for now, I’ll get you other essentials

Aurora’s POV:A WEEK LATER:“Baby, what is it?” Klaus asked me but then I was in too much shock to breathe, not to mention replying to his question.My hands shook as I stared at the text message on my phone. It was from Alexander, my late father’s lawyer and something about it screamed urgency. Wordlessly, I shoved the phone into Klaus’ hands. He read the message for a few seconds and then sighed, before muttering; “why?”“Huh?”“Why does he want to see you?” Klaus asked. “What is so important that he wants to talk to you about… and he cannot say over the phone?”I shook my head. “I have no idea too… but it’s better to find out from the horse’s mouth than stay here pondering about the possibilities of what he has to offer.”“Or what he has to say,” Klaus supplied and I nodded. I moved away from him as I walked over to the large window. A lot of thoughts plagued my mind. I had no idea why or for what reasons barrister Alexander was asking to see me, but then I was curious. Way too cur

Aurora’s POV:I was still weak and afraid. My fear had bloomed in the past week and now, I was nothing but the combo of a crybaby and a scaredy-cat.I closed my eyes, focusing only on breathing steadily as I slowly stepped into the crowded hall with Klaus walking by my side. The air was thick and filled with the smell of sweat, several different types of colognes, and burning candles.“Are you sure you can do this?” I heard Klaus ask me for the thousandth time today and just like the other times he asked, I simply nodded.I couldn’t look at him, couldn’t bring myself to. My eyes were trained on my mother who looked ashen as she stared at the big brown box up front. It was my father’s coffin and strangely, it was locked.The beautiful decorations at the front of the hall made the realization of what today was dawn on me. I stared teary-eyed at the big portraits of my father hanging at the front. They were adorned with fancy garlands, those pesky little things that made his death even m

Aurora’s POV:The last thing I saw before I leaped out of the window was Klaus’ and my mother’s shocked expressions. I was shocked too but right now, I didn’t have the time to dwell on such feelings.I ran as fast as my legs through the night, with nothing but the silver rays of the moon acting as my guide. The night was chilly and somewhat windy. I could feel the breeze blowing away at my furs…My furs!!This still felt like a dream. I meant the fact that I had finally gotten my wolf! For several months, I’ve been looked down on, been treated like I was crap simply because everyone thought I was an omega. I wished they could see me right now and see how beautiful my wolf was.Just as the thought crossed my mind, it immediately was dispelled. I couldn’t help but worry about myself and now that I thought about it, what was happening? I was supposed to have Alpha blood so why did I turn before turning twenty?This thought singularly plagued my heart but before I could dwell on it for lon
