Kael's POV
In the night, Rafe injected her with the medicine Liam had asked us to. She didn't protest when he inserted the syringe in her arm. It was as if she was used to being injected often.
Drugs. She had been given drugs this way by those traffickers.
She fell asleep afterwards, the drug taking over her. Rafe wasn't going to be with her—she had stayed with me the previous night—so I decided to let Roman be with her. And he took her to his room.
Among us five, Roman, Lucian, and I were the only ones willing to spend the night with her and stay by her side, but not Rafe and Jason.
Rafe's reason was understandable, but Jason… I guess he was yet to come around to reality and accept her, or he was guilt-ridden. It must be eating him inside.
I will have to talk to him about this.

The next day came quickly. The Day Eira will have her first Shift.
The day time passed in silence just like the previous one.
