ENZOI had been staring at Maya for longer than I cared to admit and the problem was that she made it difficult not to.She moved around the hospital room with that same quiet confidence she carried everywhere, checking things, arranging things, reading through whatever was on her clipboard. Her hair was pulled back, a few loose strands framing her face, and every now and then she would push them behind her ear without even thinking about it.I watched her do it again and again until she finally caught me, her eyes lifted from the clipboard and landed directly on mine, I looked away but a few seconds later, I looked again and she caught me again.This time, her eyebrow rose and I smiled. She’s so fucking beautiful. She shook her head and went back to whatever she was doing and I should have stopped but I didn’t.The third time she caught me, she lowered the clipboard completely. “If you don’t stop staring at me, I’m going to kick you out of this room.”I grinned. “It’s not my fault you

Maya stood a short distance away, watching them with the same puzzled expression I felt settling across my own face so I walked over to them.The moment Dante saw me, his expression changed, his shoulders straightened and his eyes moved over me as if checking for damage, even though I was the one who had walked away from the conversation.“Whatever it is you guys want to say, you better say it in front of everybody,” I let out calmly.Raphael’s mouth opened and Dante shook his head. “Not here.”I cocked an eyebrow at him. “And why is that?”“Your father just finished surgery,” he replied. “I don’t want anything happening to him right now.”I stared at him. “I trust that my father can handle whatever you’re about to tell me.”Maya stepped closer. “What’s going on?” Nobody answered immediately and the silence itself made my stomach tighten.
