It was Aurora's first day working in Rhysand Corp's new division in New York City.
She was both excited and nervous.
For so long, she had been stuck in the estate, under constant watch.
The doctors had gone over a long list of things she could and couldn't do, but Aurora was desperate to feel normal again, to live her life outside the estate.
Her relationship with Daemon was confusing.
Sometimes he was kind and caring, other times cold and distant.
It was much better than how he'd treated her during their engagement or on their wedding day, though.
Back then, he had hated her, and now, he didn't.
She figured he felt guilty for everything, especially for leaving her in a coma for seven years.
Even with that, she never dared to anger him.
She had learned to tread lightly around Daemon, unsure of what might set him off.
