Polyxena walked down the hall still shocked at what she had in her sister's room. Polyxena knew who Achilles was and she still couldn't get over the fact her sister loved him. Hecuba came out of her chambers and saw the look on her beautiful daughter's face. "Polyxena what is the matter?" Hecuba asked.

"I just witnessed something I wish I had not." Polyxena admitted.

"What have you seen?" Hecuba asked.

Polyxena look around in the hall before pulling her mother into her chambers.

Aurora sat at her dressing table in her sliver silk robe brushing her brown hair out. Her bedroom door opened and Aurora could see Cassandra's reflection in her mirror. "You look happy." Cassandra said. "Considering what happened last night."

"Cassandra I am going to tell you something." Aurora said. "And because you are my most trusted sister and friend I can trust you won't breathe a word of this to anyone."

"I promise." Cassandra swore.

"When I was in the Greek camp I fell in love." Aurora admitted.

"With who?" Cassandra asked. Aurora could tell her sister was bursting with curiosity.

"Achilles." Aurora said. "And he got in the walls last night to see me."

"Oh my goodness." Cassandra said with a laugh. "He really did that for you?"

"Yes." Aurora said. Cassandra pulled her sister into a hug and they began to jump in happiness.

"Cassandra leave." An angry female voice said. The sisters broke apart and they saw their mother standing there looking furious. Both of their smiles faded. "I said now!" Cassandra walked out of the room but not before throwing a good luck look at her sister. "What in the name of Hades did you do last night?"

"What are you talking about?" Aurora asked.

"Is what Polyxena told me true?" Hecuba yelled.

"Well maybe if I knew what she told you I could answer you." Aurora said trying to stay clam.

"That you had a Greek in here last night." Hecuba yelled. Aurora saw Hector, Priam, Cassandra, Andromache, and Polydorus enter her room. "And not just any Greek, Achilles."

"Mother I…" Aurora started.

"I don't want an accuse." Hecuba ranted. "Did he bed you? Turn you into a Greek whore?"

Aurora got angry and yelled at her mother. "So it is perfectly ok when Paris steals a GREEK woman who is already married because he loves her, but it is not alright when I am in love with a Greek?"

Hecuba's hand slammed along side her daughter's face. "How dare you." Hecuba yelled. "How dare you compare yourself to your brother. Your brother's blood still wets the sand and you insult him."

Aurora held the side of her face still in shock from her mother hitting her. Cassandra and Andromache came between Hecuba and Aurora. Andromache pulled Aurora into a hug when Aurora started to cry. Cassandra turned to her mother. "That is enough mother." Cassandra said.

"When she does not bleed this month don't be surprised." Hecuba snarled before pushing past her sons and husband to exit the room.

Aurora cried into Andromache's chest as Andromache shared a look with her husband. Priam came forward and pulled his daughter away from his daughter in law. "Your mother is wrong." Priam whispered in his daughter's ear. "I don't approve of giving yourself to him before you are married, but if you love him he will be accepted here the same as Helen was."

Aurora looked up at her father and smiled before kissing his forehead.
