</div></div><span style="font-family: 'Didact Gothic', 'sans-serif'">Raelyn was in agony, plain and simple. She struggled to adjust to the searing touch of the hot poker, but as long as it had managed to break the seal, she was content. The witch didn't even see Lyfe dashing in toward them, she was far too concerned with trying to cope with the sensation that the burning was still continuing. It made pain rippled through her body, and she used the binding over her arms to press into to relieve some need to fight. Before Anna could release her sister and proceed to heal her, the female was tackled to the ground with a loud huff. Raelyn glanced up from her position to try and see what was going on, and she was not amused.<br/>
<br/>
"Hey, stop!" Anna squeaked as the pain of the collision rippled through her body. As she heard the snapping of the metal the witch tried to fight, to push the wolf back. It was only when she felt how close Lyfe became that she stilled, her heart racing. "Lyfe is here, Rae." She uttered softly, her orbs staring up at him in complete shock. The female hadn't expected it to say the least. "Could you... call him off." Anna shot back as Raelyn was clearly confused as her brows began to knit. Clearly he'd just arrived to a scene that looked horrific. "Lyfe, I'm fine," The female groaned softly, the pain was getting worse. "Can you just let her up so she can come heal me?" <br/>
<br/>
Once she was allowed, Anna would get back to her feet with a swift movement before hurrying to her sister. "Hold on," The younger sister murmured as she hovered a hand over Raelyn's back. Soft, tender words escaped her lips as a warmth ebbed from her hand. Tingles began to ripple over Raelyn's back, causing her shoulders to twitch slightly before a sigh of relief escaped her. The immediate burning faded, but she could feel the healing wasn't as deep as it should've been. "What's wrong?" She growled softly, her irritation becoming all too clear. "I don't know, it's not... it's not completing." Anna gazed down toward the wound with an increasing frown. "The burn healed fine, but the rune isn't coming up. It looks like it's some kind of binding... Even though the rune broke. How is that possible?" The witches remained in silence for a moment, "Just untie me." The woman huffed gently as her sister obeyed.<br/>
<br/>
Slowly, Rae rose to her feet with a grunt of pain. Cautiously, she approached Lyfe before she dropped to her knees. Two soft hands brushed across his jaw, cradling him closer to her as she pressed a soft kiss to his forehead. "Sweet of you to worry." The raven haired witch gave him a wink before rising to her feet. There was no hiding the concern in her face, even if she tried to. The fact that the rune remained meant that there was power inside of it, the very marking had more hold on her than she could've assumed. That was going to be a problem.<br/>
<br/>
"Why don't you bring you dog bed up." The female bent at her hip, displaying her ample cleavage before giving Lyfe a rather rough rub between his ears before making her way back inside. She'd need to talk to Grace, but not yet. Raelyn didn't truly trust the woman. The witch made her way back up to her room, and into the bathroom. All she did was gaze in the mirror at the rune, her skin looked blackened, and it wasn't from the burn. The witch shut off the bathroom light and set a few candles along the surfaces before turning on the tub taps. After adding some bubble mix the female focused on the candles, but nothing happened. What the hell was going on? </span>
