Chapter 12

The fear slowly slipped from him as Ambrose led the way to a group of rocks outside the coliseum doors. He knew they weren’t safe until they were behind wards in the human realm—or really any other realm other than hell—but the jagged fear he’d had watching helplessly as Jamie ran for her life ebbed away.

As soon as he could, he’d take her in his arms and never let go, just to confirm she was really there.

He’d never been so helpless and so proud at the same time, watching her in the games. She’d never shown a hint of fear, though he’d been able to feel it through the bond. He and Balin had been forced to watch on their knees, chained to the ground.

Though he could have—and did—break free easily, he didn’t at first. If he had done that before Fury had cheated, it would have cost Jamie her life, and there was nothing in the world more precious than her. He’d had to stand back and watch, holding his own emotions in check while everything he’d ever wanted could have been lost. He’d had to wait for his moment—one he hadn’t been sure would come.

Now they had even more things to worry about. Namely, how to get out of hell. He could hear the crowd behind him and knew it would not be easy to make a portal and leave with them ready to give chase.

“Balin!”

Ambrose turned to find Fawkes running toward them, a huge smile on his face.

“Fawkes!” Balin said as they hugged each other, relief in the younger man’s stance evident from his sagging shoulders.

“I couldn’t watch, but I heard what happened. Congrats by the way on finding your true halves.” He turned to Jaime and bowed. “I’m Fawkes, a friend of Balin’s.”

Jamie hugged him tight, surprising him. “I know what you’ve done for both of my men. Thank you.”

Fawkes blushed and shook his head. “It was nothing. I do know that an angry mob is on its way, so I’m going to go make a distraction so you guys can divine a portal.”

Ambrose smiled. This young demon was a far greater man than he gave himself credit for.

“Can’t you come with us?” Jamie asked as Balin pulled her into his arms.

Hunter stood back, watching it all with that same fierce expression on his face. Ambrose was glad the wolf could escape, even though he looked more feral than sane.

“I can’t go,” Fawkes said, a frown on his face. “I still have a bit of time until I’m in my maturity…then…”

Balin nodded, and Ambrose took the kid by the shoulder. “When you make your choice, come to us. We’ll find a way to help.”

Fawkes gave a wobbly smile then coughed. “I might take you up on that.”

Balin moved forward to give the kid one last hug. “You better.”

“Now I’m going to go blow up a couple things, but don’t worry, I’m faster than they think. Make that portal quick though.”

Balin nodded. “I’m strong enough now to be able to take my mates easily, plus another, so it won’t be a problem.
