Chapter Twenty-Two
Veena waited to exit the shuttle last. Ahead, Orin continued to be the diplomat and escorted Jo towards the common room. Emiko raced out to give Baker a hug. Veena smiled. At least that relationship seemed off the rocks.
âYou were longer than I expected.â Hwicce gave her a lopsided smile, crinkling the corners of his eyes.
In addition to his previous injuries, a series of minor scratches marred his face, but she didnât ask what heâd been up to. Instead, she wrapped her arms around him and savoured his warmth.
âRokan was not what I expected,â she said softly, still holding onto him.
Hwicce snorted. âInstead of soldiers, were there fields of flowers tended by barefoot citizens under the purple glow of Unnamed?â
Veena laughed and pulled away just enough to gaze into his eyes. âI would have thought that idea ridiculous before going down there, but now it just seems tame.â
âI donât mean to interrupt, but are you two coming?â Orin called from the top of the stairs.
âOn our way.â Veena tenderly freed Hwicce from her embrace.
âDid you get what you went down for?â Hwicce took her hand.
Veena smiled, nodding slowly. âAnd we even have a planâbut youâre not going to like it.â
