*~Hazel's POV~*
I told myself I wouldn't bring it up to Aurora..not the dream, not the shadow of a man claiming to be my mate. How could I even explain it to her? How could I tell her about someone tall, dark, and impossibly gorgeous appearing out of nowhere, calling my children mistakes, claiming that my mother had tampered with my destiny, and that I was his true mate? That the bond I shared with the triplets was nothing more than a false weave?
No. That couldn't be true.
I had felt it. The bond with Caspian was real—undeniably real. And even with Cayden, as much as I loathed to admit it, the bond was there too. Surely something that strong couldn't be fabricated. At least, not entirely.
Still… I needed answers. Answers about my mother. And Aurora had to be the one to give them to me.
Aurora was busy playing with my babies when I turned to her.
"Aurora," I said softly. "I'm ready."
She glanced up, smiling. "What? You're ready for the naming ceremony?"
