Aurora's POV
*****
"That was a call from the people working on our new place." Seraphyne said behind the princess.
Aurora stood by one of the windows, staring at the late morning sky outside. The sun's golden rays was illuminating. But it did nothing to vanquish the thoughts of what happened last night.
The black bird. The red sparks it left behind. And the possibility that it was linked to the mysterious woman who appeared to her brother and Elian the same night.
And of course, the way all this had some kind of connection with the nightmare she had the night of her father's death.
"What did the people say?" She finally asked Seraphyne, not wanting the latter to worry about spacing out.
Too late.
"You don't sound excited at all." Seraphyne walked toward her, footsteps echoing. "What's wrong? Still worried about your brother and Elian?"
