Chapter Two Hundred And fifty-nine: The Sacrifice

He rubbed his jaw "How do you feel, knowing that Ben is your human mate?"  

 "I am?" 

The person in question appeared in the clearing, pointing at his chest and staring at them like aliens.

Lia's eyes widened,"Wait a minute, my brother's here too? Ben, how could you risk his life like that, I trusted you to keep him safe"

"Your brother was here," Ben was brisk to clarify, "And I did keep him safe. Beside you should give the boy some credit, he's actually capable than you think," 

"Quite interesting to have the subject of our conversation here," Raphael's eyes twinkled with mischief.
