Chapter 86

• Aurora’s POV
• It still felt like a surreal dream that I was this close to marrying the man of my dreams. The excitement of Lucian's proposal was still fresh, and though the engagement was newly minted, my mind was already buzzing with the sound of wedding bells. The joy of anticipation was palpable, like a sweet pre-bridal buzz flowing through my veins. Life felt perfect—well, almost.
• I chuckled softly to myself, my gaze fixed on the stunning diamond ring Lucian had just slipped onto my left hand. The light caught its facets, making it sparkle brilliantly, and I marveled at how it seemed to glow with its own inner light. It was beautiful and, best of all, it was all mine.
