Aurora James - POV
"Aurora?" I looked away from my phone to see Zander waiting for me.
"Why don't you go ahead? I will meet my mom and come and join you at the ballroom later?" I asked him when he nodded his head as he walked down the hallway. I turned around and left the pack house. My house is only a five-minute walk from the pack house, so I didn't mind that extra time when I finally arrived back home.
I knocked on the door twice and waited for her to open. "Aurora." I looked up from my phone to see my mother standing near the doorway. Her eyes were puffed up, and there was something amiss in her look.
"Mom, are you all right?" I asked her when I saw her lips tremble.
