Chapter 6

From their position at the base of the falls, Tady finally figured out why this waterfall was so big. It wasn’t falling merely from the small stream they’d followed. From this point, he could see it was fed by at least three larger rivers, all coming together here. Three points of the compass, heading due north toward the fourth.

No wonder the magic felt so strong. He glanced toward Lester and saw that the big man’s arms still trembled. The Unicorn wasn’t huge, but Tady couldn’t imagine the strength it must have taken to lug the creature down that long cliff. If only he’d been able to shift to find the Seat of Magic, Lester wouldn’t have to take risks like that. They could have found She Who Rules in just a day.

Of course, it was all about the journey.

Tady sighed, gathered up his pack and glanced toward Lester and the Unicorn. “Are ye ready, m’boys? We need to move on if we’re to find a safe spot to camp tonight.”

Lester nodded. The Unicorn snorted and they all moved on down the path.

That night they camped in a small meadow near the river that raced through the canyon. Lester spent a long time getting the Unicorn comfortable, preparing a soft bed and placing a filled bowl of grain in front of him. Tady watched with a full heart and an aching cock. Lester seemed so caught up in the minutia of the journey, he’d paid scant notice of Tady.

It was an unfamiliar and not too pleasant feeling, to be set aside for a four-legged creature of legend. Tady felt small and bitchy and not all that proud of himself by the time Lester finally got the Unicorn settled and crawled in next to Tady in the soft bed of boughs and bracken fern.

They lay there, two men separated by whatever thoughts filled their minds. Tady almost quivered with desire, wanting so badly for Lester to turn to him. He wondered what Les was thinking, if he thought of Tady or the journey.

It’s all about the journey.

Aye, but did that mean they had to ignore one another?

“Lester? Are you awake?”

Les turned to him, smiling. “I thought you were already asleep. You’re so quiet.”

“Can’t sleep. Keep thinking of the journey.” Well, he was thinking of it, dammit. But only so far as how it was currently affecting his love life.

“I’ve been thinking of you.” Lester rolled over and brushed his fingers through Tady’s hair. “I watched you climb down that cliff today and it scared the crap out of me. I was so afraid you’d fall.”

Tady sighed. “I thought the same of you, lugging that damned creature on your back, so much weight on the vines. Les, I don’t know what I’d do if something were to happen to you.”

“Don’t think of it. Think of the adventure we’re sharing. The places we’re seeing. Tady…” Les paused. Tady fought the overpowering urge to just grab his mate and pull him close.

“Tady, I love you.
