Aveline's face lit up with relief.

She quickly asked, "Has the fire outside died down?"

Braden replied, "It's under control now. Please, open the door."

Zachary, who had woken up early, had already evacuated the children and was now fighting the flames with a fire extinguisher.

Baron, with a team of bodyguards, had hooked up a hose and managed to contain much of the blaze, giving Braden the chance to get inside and lead Aveline to safety. Aveline's room was dangerously close to the kitchen; if the fire hadn't been brought under control, it would have soon reached her.
