Chapter 7

“I have to go alone this time,” Drake told Kamui and the Balfurs.

Kai gazed at his lover. The Incubus didn’t look anxious or afraid this time. Their short separation had paid off. For some reason, watching Drake with such courage made him want to pounce on him. But Kai knew that it wasn’t the time or place to do such a thing.

“Hey,” Drake called, snapping the shifter out of his clouded mind. “Are you ready?”

Nodding, Kai climbed onto the horse and went to the starting line. “The other team will most likely try to do something to us when no one’s watching. Be careful at all times. Call me if you need help.” He patted Drake’s shoulder and smiled when the Incubus nodded determinedly.

“Red team, Kai and Drake,” Luna announced. “Blue team, Mao and Josh. You have to follow the yellow arrows. Once you complete the roundabout at the end, return by following the same arrows. There will be traps, so pay attention to yourselves and the horses.” She rested her elbows on the edge of the water tank and leaned forward. “Any questions, gentlemen?”

Drake raised his hand. “How do you know if any of us might take a shortcut?”

Luna giggled and sighed. “Just try and you’ll see what happens.” The mermaid roared, her mouth filled with sharp teeth. She shifted back and cleared her throat.

Kai shivered. He wouldn’t want to fight this woman. Being a Type SS didn’t mean he’d engage in a balanced fight with her. She scared anyone. “Drake, do you sense any danger? I know you can’t detect them, though.”

“Not really. But that can change,” he answered. “I can only sense the danger about half a minute in advance.” Drake gripped the reins. “I have to admit that I’m nervous. There’s no way for me to sense if they have ill intentions.”

“Just stay close to me until we finish this,” Kai told him. He also wanted to see what his lover could do. Unfortunately, he’d missed Drake’s encounter with the centaur. The Incubus didn’t look hurt. It must have been something that he’d done to make the beast give up. Unlike Drake, Kai had just hit the back of his opponent’s head with his sledgehammer. It’d been an easy knockout.

“Now, on your mark,” Luna started. “Get ready. Go,” the mermaid shouted and the players raced down the street.

Drake grinned at Kai. “I’m light compared to you, so my horse is carrying a feather,” he said confidently.

“Great advantage,” Kai said. “Just be sure that you don’t go flying if something happens to you.” He chuckled at Drake’s stare. “Let’s focus on the challenge at hand.” Even though Kai needed to wait, he wanted to take the Incubus home. He’d been certain that Drake could become his mate.

The teams rounded a corner to another street. Once they were out of sight from the others, one of the shifters got closer to Drake. “Where do you think you’re going?” Kai growled, glaring at the other man. He got between them.
