Chapter Nineteen

Raphael put a gentle hand on Emma’s back. Her pain was so acute, that even with his mighty strength, he had to fight to keep his hand upon her. “Emma, it’s Raphael. Let me help you.” He placed his other hand on her head and stroked her hair, all the while releasing his own healing energy. He gave her all he could without jeopardizing his own safety. But she needed more. She had released all of her energies with that blast and was completely tapped out.

“Emma, can you hear me?” Raphael urged.

“Yes,” she whispered back weakly.

“You need more than I can give. And your protections are blown to bits. You are vulnerable. Cassiel can complete the healing, but you will need Michael to repair your protection.”

She slowly turned her face up, her bloodshot eyes still swimming with tears. Soft as a whisper, yet strong with conviction she ordered, “Get someone else.”

“You don’t realize what you’re saying. Michael is the strongest Protector we’ve got. You’re letting your emotions guide you rather than clear logic and reason. Please, let me get him for you,” Raphael implored.

She pushed herself up to a sitting position, ripped Michael’s talisman from her neck, and threw it across the room. “I said get me someone else! I can’t trust him anymore. If he loved me, he wouldn’t have tossed my baby to Hell. She’s all I have in this world, and he let Evil have her. No, he’s just like Ron, making Hannah last on his list of priorities. Well, she’s first on mine and always will be. I’d rather die here and now before accepting any protection from him. I will have someone else or I will have no one!” She crumpled back down to the floor having expended what little energy she had been given. Raphael collected her in his arms, her nightgown a twisted mess around her knees, and sat with her.

“Damn it, Emma! You’ve got to calm down. You’re using up energy quicker than it can be replaced. We will get Hannah back. He’s right. She’s safe with Namirha. He won’t harm her or do anything to jeopardize his chance at total world domination. You know very well she’s the key. He did the right thing by rescuing you rather than her. As harsh as it sounds, it’s true. The sooner you acknowledge that the sooner we can go on with our plans to infiltrate the Homecoming, which we need to be at in a few hour’s time.”

Silence. It was better than the wracking sobs from moments ago, Raphael thought optimistically. At least five minutes went by without a word from her. She lay in his arms like a ragdoll. And then she spoke in the softest of whispers, with a voice that tugged at the very foundation of who he was as a healer.

“I’m sorry, Raphael. You’re right. I’m sorry, so, so sorry.” She looked at him with shame in her eyes. Tears slid like ghosts down her face. He stroked
