Zero POV
The hospital is quiet and the lights at the halls dim as I make my way to Hera’s room. My boots echo on the floor, and I’m still thinking about Chloe, her smile, her honesty. But my focus shifts to Hera, to the mess with Snake, to the traitor we’re hunting. Mason’s counting on me, and I’m not letting him down.
Hera is awake when I walk in.
She is propped up in bed,her head resting on the headboard. She looks stronger than yesterday. Her eyes light up when she sees me, but there’s a sharpness in them, like she’s ready to dig for answers.
“ Didn't expect to see you here.” She comments when I take a seat on the sofa opposite her bed
“And why not? Am I not allowed to see you?” I answer back.
“ You are. As long as you are not about to scold me. I have received enough scoldings
