Rory
She hadn"t stopped crying since they"d been at the bridge, and just the thought of what her Council wanted her to do, had the tears flooding back. She knew she couldn"t do it. Even if she didn’t know Alden, she didn’t think she’d be able to. It just wasn"t in her. She’d never been a killer, and had no intention of ever changing that.
Rory could hear low voices coming from the room next door, but couldn"t quite make out what they were saying. She figured that Alden was out there with Bjorn and Ari, who she’d been vaguely aware of when Alden had carried her in earlier. She wasn"t too sure how he"d managed to get her all the way back to her flat without someone noticing that he was n***d, but that wasn"t exactly her biggest problem right now.
"Not happy with your assignment, Aurora?"
