Blake

It seems our son will be the strongest werewolf in the history of men. He hasn't been born, yet he already has access to powerful teleportation magic. Something he must have gotten from Leo's genes. Leo sighs behind me. "It feels like we have been walking for hours..."

I can't do much else except pass him a smile in agreement and then keep walking. Leo and I lost Nora once we crashlanded, and now we are searching for her.

There isn't a map to navigate, though, and it feels like we have been following this rocky path for hours without getting anywhere. The skies are red, and the temperature changes all the time. When we came here, it was freezing cold. Then it rained lava, and now it's warmer than a butthole.

I really wish to go home...

I look around us with narrowed eyes. I've never been to hell before. I might not like this place, but I feel more powerful here. My demon side is definitely flourishing, and I feel strangely energized. But wait, if I feel stronger at this location. Then how does Leo, a half-angel, feel when he is in hell?

I warily turn around, eyeing Leo, who is panting. Sweat glistens over his tanned skin, and his blonde hair is disheveled. He looks like a surfer about to melt under the sun.

"How are you feeling?" I ask, gasping when he crashes into me, and I'm forced to grip a hold of him. "Leo?" I shake him. He is burning up, and his eyes are closed. "Are you okay? Leo!" Those green eyes of his flash open, and a grin spreads over his lips even though he is exhausted. I'm holding up his entire weight and don't understand why he is smiling.

"It's hot in here..." Leo smacks his tongue against the palate of his mouth, and then he is back to panting. "It feels like I'm burning up. I'm sorry for slowing you down, but I don't like it here." "Then why are you smiling? And why didn't you tell me you were tired earlier? You're sweating through your clothes!"

He laughs. I'm holding him up, but it feels like he might slide down and melt into a puddle at any given time. He is lucky that I'm somewhat bigger than him.

"Tough until the end-it's the code of being an alpha. We can't go around showing ourselves weak..."

I shoot him a glare. "Your pride is worth more than your life? Don't make me laugh, Leo. You should have told me."

"What difference would it have made?"

"For starters, I could have helped you!"

"How?"

"By doing this," I grab his shoulders and channel my inner energy. I'm attempting to shrink him, but he is holding back.

"What are... What are you trying to do?"

"Stop blocking my magic, Leo," I meet his eyes and try to calm him by offering him a smile. "I'm trying to shrink you so I can carry you instead of you having to sweat off your balls."

His eyes narrow. "Alphas don't allow other dudes to carry them around while they are doll-sized."

I inwardly roll my eyes. "Because it will take a toll on your pride? Dude, you're half dead already. And if we make it out of here, you can break the spell yourself. Just let me help you, okay? We are technically in a relationship together."

His eyes roam over my face. I can see that he is considering the idea but not liking it. A grimace crosses his features. He hesitates about this for a long time, but eventually, he groans in frustration.

"Fine, I will let you do it!" Leo stops blocking my magic and pouts. I've never seen him this grumpy before. He definitely doesn't like the idea of being powerless for a while. "Just don't make it weird, okay?"

I smile at that. "I won't."

"Do you promise?"

"You have my word," my smile grows. "I'm quite happy that you're choosing to trust me."

I mean my words. Nora might be my mate, but Leo and I share her, and we also need to have a good relationship. Especially since we are about to raise a kid together.

"You're... You're happy about this?"

"Hm?" I lift an eyebrow. "Of course! It means a lot that you trust me enough to let me shrink you."

"f**k, stop saying it!"

I snort at his. "Does it make it more real hearing me say it?"

Leo averts his eyes with a blush covering his face. "Yes... Never speak about this to anyone. My pack members wouldn't respect me if I told them I let someone shrink and carry me around like my protector of some sort... I'm an alpha, for f**k's sake." "Roger."

Leo stops blocking my magic, and I have him shrunk in size in no time. He doesn't look too happy about it. Those eyes appear grumpy, and he refuses to look up at me.

Instead, he just plops down on his a*s in my palm.

It's fascinating seeing him at this size. He can't really fully trust me, though. I watch him unfold a pair of white wings, and that's when he chooses to speak.

"Are you going to keep staring at me sitting in your palm, or are we actually going to try and find Nora?"

I grimace. "Right... I'm sorry..."

I drop Leo off on my shoulder and start walking. Demons are flying in the skies, screeching like vultures. Had they not been there, I would have taken off flying too. "Don't even think about it," Leo comments. "You better keep walking because I don't trust you not to drop me."

I snort. "You have wings."

"I'm exhausted."

"Good thing I'm carrying you then."

He sends me a glare. "If you mention this to anyone, I will have you hanged once we get back to Lunaris."

"Unless I drop you first," I tease.

"f**k you, Blake."

"Sorry," I laugh. "I couldn't resist."

"It's not funny to make jokes like that..."

"Oh, come on, you would do the same thing if this were reversed! I wouldn't hear the end of your jokes!"

"You really think I would carry you if this were reversed?"

"Uh, yes?" I tilt my head at him. "Helping others regardless if they want it or not is sort of your thing."

Leo is silent for a while and then calmly looks up at me. "Thank you for this, Blake. I appreciate it even though I don't like the idea of being powerless..." "Anytime," I smile. "Now, let's find that mate of ours."
