Chapter 82

• Aurora’s POV
• For over seventy-two hours, Lucian had been in a coma, and icy fear wrapped itself around my heart. I struggled to maintain control, overwhelmed by worry for my lover.
• The healing center was a blend of traditional remedies and modern medical technology. Monitors beeped steadily, tracking Lucian’s heart rate, while nurses checked his vitals regularly. Despite their efforts, my anxiety gnawed at me, a relentless presence that left me feeling hollow and drained. Nights were the worst, filled with creeping dread and sleepless hours.
