VESPERA
Once he finished bandaging her, Trent stood up, packed his kit, and walked over to Ezekiel, who was leaning against the driver’s side door.
As soon as they were out of Vespera’s earshot, Trent’s calm facade cracked.
“What the hell, Ezekiel? What was that?” he whispered, his voice low but charged with intensity. “What the fuck was that?!"
“Keep your fucking voice down,” Ezekiel snapped, glancing at Vespera. She looked so small, shaken, and utterly drained. Seeing her like that made him feel like the anger from their earlier argument was insignificant, almost shameful.
Trent grabbed Ezekiel’s arm, his eyes wide. “Is it just me, or does she look like Lorna? Please tell me I’m hallucinating.”
