Seeing Zhane's stern expression, Dave pouted dramatically, pulling an exaggerated face. However, after a few seconds, he slumped his shoulders in defeat and nodded. With that, they pushed thoughts of Athena and Zen aside, focusing instead on their queen—Hera—who was still fast asleep in the other room.
Zhane moved silently, making his way toward the bedroom. Carefully, he cracked the door open just enough to peek inside. His lips curled into a small smirk at the sight before him—Hera and Luke were still snuggled up together, fast asleep, completely at ease.
Zhane let out a quiet chuckle before gently closing the door. Without wasting time, he made a call to request a fresh set of clothes and toiletries for Hera, ensuring she would have everything she needed for a warm shower once she woke up.
He wasn't alone—both Dave and Rafael were also making their own preparations.
