You know, I love Shadow and Rayne. It's extremely bittersweet, as many of this has been since Rayne was taken. Lovely, as usual. I love the ending, the image of Shadow with roses in his room. Lord, but life is unfair. *sigh* I wonder how it would've been if Rayne was never taken. Was the fact that she had been what would make it possible for "them" to work? Wonderful work as usual.
