[ This draws a smile, though not a pleasant one. It's the first time Rafa has looked like the predator he is. His fangs aren't showing, but they might as well be. ]
This rabble? They are footsoldiers. They could not take me.
[ Though, they are strong. Enough of them would give him problems. He is alone tonight. Still... ]
And their Queen is not with them. The fae would not be your allies, Adam. You are human. Despite your 'protection.'
[ It's enough. Adam knows what it's like to be hunted. He knows what it's like to want to keep himself from that. His blood boils with it, the desire to just keep living, to avoid being hit, to survive. ]
Then why stand here? Why not get the hell out? Why text me and taunt me because you destroyed my car? If there are creatures after you, shouldn't you be running?
So I could have avoided standing out in the street at who the fuck knows when o'clock at night? So I could be in my bed sleeping and not out here listening to a lunatic talk about faeries and magic? Yes. I would have preferred you not to tell me. It would have been a normal crime then.
[ Rafa watches him for a moment, silently assessing him. Still, there's so much anger. The boy resonates with it. His blood would probably taste of it, if the magical taint did not drown that out.
Rafa knows where he lives already. He can bring a new car there. Besides that, he has the boy's scent now, and since he knows his general area, Adam will not be hard to find. The corners of his mouth tick up in a little smile. ]
Sleep soundly, Adam.
[ In the time it takes for Adam to blink, Rafa is gone. There's no sign of him on the street, and nothing to indicate where he's heading.
He had, however, passed by the car, and the force of him moving had put out the last of the dying flames. Adam will see him again.

[ A question to answer a question. The real answer is a lot more simple. Because you're here, he thinks, and his face softens again. ]
Would you have preferred I not tell you?

Did you just want to gloat?

But not tonight. ]
