Chapter 133 Why so Smug?

Hera stirred from her peaceful nap, yet she kept her eyes closed. Someone gently nudged her several times while calling her name, their voice so tender and melodious that it only deepened her sense of comfort.

Struggling to open her eyes, Hera heard a soft chuckle beside her, like the whisper of a gentle breeze through the leaves of the tree. Its lightness mirrored the tranquility of the surroundings, offering a soothing and healing effect.

She took deep breaths and stretched her limbs after a satisfying nap, her lips forming into a small smile as she listened to the soft chuckle beside her. But wait, 'beside her'? It was only then that her body perked up, realizing there was someone sitting beside her.

Her eyes flew open, her head snapping to the side to find Xavier comfortably seated beside her, wearing a doting smile. If she didn't know better, she might have thought Xavier had a crush on her or something.
