Valeriana watched with a subtle surprise as Verona materialized in the chamber again so soon only a couple of hours had passed, her eyes scanning the room. Neveah was on the plush ice couch deep asleep.
Valeriana couldn't help but notice a change in Verona. There was a new weight to her presence, it wasn't that great maybe Verona hid it but it was there, for some reason this woman seemed different than the person who left a while ago. For a moment she thought it was an imposter but shook away that thought... It was proposterous. Yes Verona was different but Valeriana just shook her head at the thought and focused on what is important, if she wished to share she would else it was not her business.
"He's still unconscious," Valeriana announced, " Still resting."
Verona knelt beside Neveah, her gaze lingering on his face. Then something unreadable crossed her crimson eyes... it was worry but was replaced with a hard resolve, then she met Valeriana's gaze.
