Emily almost fell asleep when she was suddenly shaken awake by the faint sounds of movements nearby. As her eyes flew open, she saw Shadow finally waking up from the deep slumber he netted after drinking the blood.
He now looked completely healed, strong, powerful, and just as good as the first time they met years ago. Thinking about it, Emily realized that it had been so long since she last saw him this healthy.
A smile of relief and satisfaction made its way to her lips as she stood up from her chair and moved toward the couch where he had been sleeping for the past couple of hours.
