Aurora's POV
"What did you say?" This time it was me who widened my eyes in disbelief.
John fell silent, looking at me with a complicated expression but he didn't say anything.
"Do we have a chance of winning against him, Grace?"
Although I couldn't see Grace's expression, I could hear some sarcasm in her voice when she replied, "My sweetheart, him? How could we not win?"
The feeling of reassurance that gave me was great.
I took two steps towards John, feeling confident. "What do you mean, you know my biological parents?"
John looked hesitant, but I didn't have time to waste on him. Grace's power seemed to be flowing through me effortlessly. The wounds on my back didn't even hurt as much as they did before. I rushed towards John, grabbed him by the neck and pressed him against the tree behind me, looking down at him.
"Speak up."
