POV: Luna
I was cleared from the infirmary the next morning.
Nova practically dragged me to breakfast, insisting I needed to eat something other than the sad hospital food.
"You look better," she said as we sat down with Aria, Sienna, and Lyric. "Less like you're about to collapse."
"Thanks, I think."
Aria slid a plate of scrambled eggs toward me. "Eat. We have combat practice in an hour and you need your strength."
I picked at the food, my mind still on everything that had happened. Cole's confession. Miguel's blessing. The dark figure's warnings about consuming souls.
"Earth to Luna," Lyric said, waving a hand in front of my face. "You're doing that thing again where you disappear into your own head."
"Sorry. Just thinking."
"About Cole?" Nova asked with a knowing smile.
