It had been a few months since many of the downwolrlders died and Afina still wasn't over the deaths

Afina didn't know what was going on but suddenly it seemed as if Simon wasn't a vampire anymore because he could go out into the sun something Afina missed

Afina sat in front of the window looking out onto the city while playing with her ring. She sighed before moving away from the window seeing the sun start to come up

"Afina, why are you so sad all of a sudden?" Raphael asked wrapping his arms around her waist and she could feel his bare chest since he was on wearing a robe and some sweats

"I didn't realize how much I'd miss the sun until I realized I really can't feel it anymore" Afina said leaning her head on Raphaels chest.

Raphael had also changed somewhat he seemed more like himself and seemed more like he was getting over a drug

Afina still blamed Izzy for it. For getting Raphael addicted to her angel blood

Afina hadn't talked to anyone from the institute since the sword was activated, she thought it would be better to separate herself from her family

Izzy has tried to talk to Afina but she tries her best to avoid talking to everyone especially her. After everything that happened with Izzy and Raphael she didn't know if she could actually forgive her like she said she had

"You miss being a Shadowhunter?" He questioned, hurt evident in his voice.

"Of course. I'll always miss it but I love being able to always be with you. But I also miss the outside world and regular food" Afina sighed

"Afina" Raphael said quietly hearing the desperation in her voice

"I miss it so much Raphael" she said her voice cracking as tears filled her eyes and his grip on her tightened

"Maybe you should call Alec or Simon or Izzy" he said handing her, her phone. Afina shook her head making Raphael sigh

Raphael let go of her a opened the phone before calling the first person he saw which happened to be her real brother

"Simon, i know you don't want to talk to me but Afina needs to talk please" Raphael looked over at Afina and handed her the phone

Afina hesitated before taking the phone and putting it up to her ear

"Afina?" Simon asked and the tears Afina tried not to shed fell down her face

"Simon I'm sorry" she sobbed holding her head.

"Afina what's wrong?" Simon asked worriedly but her only response was more sobs "Afina where are you right now?"

"The hotel" she cried and she heard Simon let out a breath

"I'm on my way" with that Simon hung up the phone

Afina let out shaky breaths as more tears ran down her face and Raphael went to the bathroom to get her a wet washcloth

"Raphael" one of his men said while Raphael walked out kneeling down to Afina and wiping her tears away

"Isabelle, what are you doing here?" Raphael asked standing up but not moving away from Afina who finally looked up to see her sister

"I wanted to apologize, it was a terrible night and I took my anger out on you. You were only trying to save your people" Izzy explained and Afina could see something else behind her eyes

"It's not safe for a Shadowhunter to be at the hotel right now, especially one looking for vampire venom" Raphael said trying to get Izzy to leave until she grabbed his arm
