  * Auriele likes Mercy. She thinks she is a Goody Two-shoes sometimes, but would fall on a grenade for Adam or Jesse or a member of the pack. But Mercy would fall on a grenade for a total stranger-and that makes her a liability to the pack<sup>180</sup>

[[Silver Borne]]
  * Sundays, Darryl cooks and Auriele washes dishes<sup>209</sup>
  * Mercy sees their mate bond as a blazing gold rope between them—softer, stronger, and deeper than the pack bond and unlike the pack bond, it wasn’t tied onto the rocks; it originated in one and ended in the other<sup>323</sup>

[[Silver Borne]]
  * Most of the pack would rather have Darryl mad at them than Auriele<sup>190</sup>
  * Henry's smart enough to be afraid of Auriele<sup>227</sup>

[[River Marked]]
  * Darryl and Auriele had become Jesse’s de facto babysitters when her mother left because female werewolves were few and far between<sup>274</sup>

  * Killing Auriele would break Adam<sup>11</sup>
  * Auriele served as surrogate aunt to Jesse<sup>15</sup>
  * Auriele, as Darryl's wife, outranked everyone except for Adam, Mercy, and Darryl in that order. But the pack had started treating her as if she were right behind Honey. And it felt like a promotion-even though technically she had dropped in rank<sup>90</sup>
  * Adam left the pack in Auriele's care after agreeing to take a sabbatical in the Yucatan Peninsula<sup>105</sup>

**Auriele and Christy**

[[Night Broken]]
