Chapter 77- Choose Wisely

Rafael couldn't remember the last time he had a proper bath, but now he found himself receiving luxurious treatment in Elowen's condominium. Normally, at this hour, he'd be back in the tunnel, breaking through hard stones and bleeding to no ends, but instead, they were actually taking care of him?

Was this because of what Elowen said?

Standing in the shower, Rafael let the water wash away the grime and blood from his skin. He felt an odd mix of confusion and pain, his anger simmering beneath to the point his fist clenched, his knuckles turning a whiter shade. So much anger, hatred — they were all evident in his uniquely unique orbs.

After having his bath, his wounds, which had been left to heal naturally, were now carefully attended to and bandaged by the healers Elowen had appointed to care for specific shifters.
