61. Azael
Third Person's POV:
"Hello, little Mate" When Rafael, or Azael, opened his eyes, only pitch-black orbs were visible.
"Azael?" Astrid exclaimed and drew away.
The corners of his mouth formed a smirk. For a split second, Astrid was terrified since this was not the Rafael she was used to seeing.
His veins had come out of his neck, but instead of blue or green veins, they were black, and they appeared not just on his neck but also on his face and arms.
Rafael had always had veiny arms, but now he looked horrifying with his light skin surrounded by black veins, yet Astrid pulled in a breath and held herself, assuring herself that he was also a version of Rafael and would not harm her.
"Azael," she smiled and cupped his face.
He grumbled, and his eyes quickly returned to chocolate brown, suggesting that Rafael was in command.
"What occurred just now?" Rafael inquired softly.
