Chapter 3
Zora’s surgery finished in the midnight]]
For some reason, I didn’t follow my body to the morgue. Instead, I found my seal bound within six feet of Ellas
He seemed to have completely forgotten about me. He waited in recovery for two hours until Zorn was Dally awake before heading back to the room together
Ellas personally carried Zora to her bed, fluffed an extra pillow behind her, and waited for the nurse to hang her before glancing toward my empty bed.
“Where’s Clara?
The nurse hesitated, caught off guard by his unexpected calmness. Then she chose her words carefully. “Her mom picked her up earlier tonight“|||
Cas just m

I morted. Ehas was cold blooded at all]
Not until rounds reached ‘s room.
That’s the expression sodened. “I’m personally handling this patient’s dressing changes. A girl’s body shouldn’t have to carry scars“]]
