Mictain listened to Raphael's words quietly. The demon in him agreed with the healer, told him to get a more suitable partner, told that it was simply foolish to pretend to be an angel just in order to be closer to one who truly was that. However, another part of him, the one that had refused to step aside despite Raphael's pleas, the one that was still remaining of the angel, told him the opposite. And, like he knew, while his demon side could be satisfied, this part would never be happy unless he had Raphael.
"Why would I want you to go away?" he asked softly, looking down at the beautiful, beautiful angel. Bringing up a hand he cradled Raphael's face on his palm, smiling slightly. "I love you, Raphael. You may be a silly little angel, but you are my silly little angel. There might be people 'more suited for me', yes, but I don't want them. I only want you."
His voice was now a mere whisper. "I knew the consequences, and I didn't step aside," he said. "If I now didn't stay by you, wouldn't that have been in vain?"
