Aurora POV
I slowly opened my eyes, and a sea of white surrounded me. For a moment, I thought I'd woken up in heaven. But as my gaze focused, I realized I was in a hospital room – or someone's bedroom. A drip was attached to my left hand, and I felt incredibly weak. Then, I caught a whiff of a familiar scent – Rylan's cologne. The room began to feel more familiar, and I realized with a start that I was in Rylan's bedroom. Memories started flooding back, but they were hazy. What had happened earlier? And why was I in Rylan's room?
