Drake looked confused but nodded, stepping out of the room. Zoe entered, her sparkling red dress looking out of place in the sterile hospital environment!
Noah couldn’t help but think back to how sheepish she had looked at the prospect of shifting and joining them in the fight. Not that he expected her to fight alongside them, but there was just something… off about the way that she had acted tonight.
“Noah, I’m so glad you’re okay,” Zoe said, moving to hug him.
Noah held up a hand, stopping her. “Zoe, I need to ask you something. Was it really the case that you simply forgot where the trailhead was?”

it real in a way it hadn’t been before.
The doctor returned with a smile on her face. “Congratulations, Luna Hannah. The test came back positive. Would you like me to bring your husband in to share the news?”
