Chapter 295
After a tough mission, a lot of the Empire Bose crew was banged up, some pretty badly. Jason, the head of Enforcement, didn’t want to waste resources if he didn’t have to.
Yara gave Jason a quick once–over, his wounds weren’t too serious, so she handed hirm a couple of bottles of meds and moved on to treat the more critical cases.
Colton was hurt too, but not too bad, thanks to Flora stepping in and blocking several deadly blows. After finishing up with Lance, Flora went over to help him.
Trying to keep a straight face, Colton was still moved by Flora’s kindness. She was the boss‘ fiancée, yet she didn’t have any airs about her as she patched them up
Once Flora finished bandaging him, she packed up the medical kit. She cought a glimpse of Jason struggling to bandage his own arm, his right hand making it tricky
Squatting down in front of him, Flora said, “Jason, let me help you with that.”
Jason looked up to see Flora’s delicate, pale hands taking the mess of a bandage from him. The gesture hit him right in the feels. “Ms. Flora, thanks for saving me back there,” he said, genuinely impressed and thinking she really was the perfect match for Connor. Soon enough, everyone’s injuries were dealt with, and it was time to figure out who fired the first shots that nearly ruined their escape. In all the chaos, nobody knew who the shooter was.
“Maybe it was one of those mercenaries. It couldn’t have been one of us, right?” suggested someone from the Medical Division, and the others from Empire Base nodded in agreement.
“Yeah, they probably aimed at us but missed and hit their own guy,” someone else chimed in.
“Alright, Jason, as long as we’re all okay, that’s what matters. It’s getting late, and we need to get the shipment back or we’ll have to answer to the boss, Yara said.
Jason nodded, still wondering if it really was the mercenaries who fired those shots. Flora, putting the medical kit back in the car, glanced at Yara
Was she overthinking things?
Luckily, the shipment made it back to Empire Base without a hitch. Connor had just returned and frowned at the sight of Jason and the others looking worse for wear. But seeing Flora unhurt, he relaxed.
“Tired?” he asked, wrapping an arm around Flora softly.
Flora smiled, “I’m okay”
“Wanna rest upstairs for a bit?”
“Sure,” Flora said, hugging him and resting her head on his shoulder. “Come up and sleep with me.”
The others couldn’t help but cringe a little, looking away. The cute, affectionate Flora in front of them was worlds apart from the fierce warrior they knew.
“I still have some things to take care of. You go ahead, I’ll be up in a bit affection
“Okay, Flora nodded, nuzzling his neck before heading upstairs.
Connor said, patting her head with a mix of helplessness and
As Flora disappeared up the stairs, the softness in Connor’s eyes vanished, replaced by a cold, stern look as he turned to the others. “Alright, spill it. What happened?”
