Aurora's mind raced, trying to process everything she had just learned. She wasn't sure what to think or feel. Then, she noticed Azrael walking to the side of her bed. He paused and turned to her. "That night you were attacked, did you perhaps remember anything odd?" he asked, raising a brow.

Azrael turned to face her, a quizzical look on his face. "I am making the bed," he said matter-of-factly. "Is that not what one does when it is time for sleep?"
