Alexis pulled me behind him quickly.
His eyes grew green. He transformed before me.
It was so quiet until men barged into the room through windows and doors.
Raven's men. He walked slowly.
Torturing with silence. As he came closer.
Alexia hissed and growled or something sounding inhuman.
Made a sound in warning.
Raven just smirked and stared at him. Opened his mouth and watery words.
A language I did not know.
Flowed out between them. And I stood there.
Until of the men grabbed my arm. Alexis saw and swung at him.
Arm dropping to the floor. As he pulled me into his arms.
He muttered another few watery words and everything disappeared.
