The rain continued to pour, but somehow, it no longer seemed loud. The pitter patter of the rain had suddenly muffled, and all Aurora could hear was Edward's words ringing in her ears.
Even the droplets of rain falling in front of her eyes didn't seem to bother her as she looked at Edward with parted lips, unable to form a decent sentence. She was still in shock.

"Your Highness!"
