"Urgh..."
Raven slowly opened his eyes and immediately clenched his head tightly with both of his hands. A sharp discomfort ran through his skull, almost as if needles were poking into his brain.
"Fuck..."
He cursed out quietly, his voice low and raspy. Keara, Yuki, and Levina were still peacefully sleeping beside him, their calm breaths filling the silent room. Raven didn't want to wake them, so he whispered his frustration under his breath.
The reason for his muttering wasn't just the headache. It was the realization— the drug's side effect that made him loose-lipped, shameless, and completely unlike his usual self... had finally worn off.
The effect was supposed to end yesterday, but Ruby, out of concern for his condition, had given him another pill. It had similar effects to the previous drugs administered to him, just weaker. Still, it extended the side effect by an entire extra day.
