{LEO'S POV}
"Who are you?" she asked suddenly.
I looked up from my plate, my spoon hovering in the air. She stared straight at me, her voice quiet but steady.
"Who am I?" I repeated, raising a brow.
Aurora gave me a nod.
I couldn't help but smile—that small, almost playful smile I give when I try to dodge something I don't want to talk about. "You really forgot my name already? Or is this your way of trying to start a conversation?"
Her expression didn't shift. "I'm being serious."
"Are you now?"
"Yes." she said, her tone calm but probing. "I really want to know who you are. You seem… well connected. To people like Scarlett, and now Tobric. Both of them said you're one of their most valuable patrons. That's not something people just throw around."
I stayed quiet, leaning back a little.
