**~ Cayden's POV ~**
Aurora suddenly jumped up, eyes wide as she stared at the woman standing behind me.
"Sister?" she whispered.
The woman's eyes welled up. "Aurora?"
I turned to get a better look. They looked so alike—same red hair, same piercing green eyes. Their features mirrored each other almost perfectly.
Aurora didn't wait another second. She ran into the woman's arms, and they embraced tightly, clinging to each other as years of separation poured out through their tears.
I had never seen Aurora cry. Not once.
Even now—bleeding profusely on the floor
she still tried to hold her head high. That was Aurora. She had faced countless challenges and never once broken. She was rigid. Cold. Unshaken.
But now… she was crying. Aurora was really crying.
I turned to Lilith, who mirrored my expression—utter confusion, disbelief. We were both lost.
The woman beside Aurora clutched her tightly, sobbing.
"Oh my God… It's really her," the woman whispered. "I can't believe this…"
