Healing Graeme

That's right, the pup his team had retrieved such a short time ago that Zagan had not even had the chance to meet her yet and see what she could do had somehow miraculously returned to her pack. He bit into his lip, drawing more of Zosime's blood to lick off and savor on his tongue. It kept him from growling his denial that any such thing would happen again.
