Chapter 63: The Unraveling Truth

Aurora paced the floor of her apartment, her arms crossed as she tried to shake the unease settling in her chest. It had been three days since she had last seen Logan. Three days since he had walked away, his expression unreadable, leaving her with nothing but questions.

She hated feeling like this—restless, uncertain. For years, she had lived in the shadows, unseen and unbothered by the weight of emotional entanglements. But Logan Mason had changed everything. His presence had infiltrated the fortress she had built around herself, making her feel things she had long buried.

A sharp knock at her door made her jolt. She reached for the gun she always kept nearby before striding cautiously toward the door. Peering through the peephole, she saw a familiar face.

Kieran.

She hesitated for a second before unlocking the door. "What are you doing here?" she asked, stepping aside as he walked in.
