We spent a week at the Water Temple, which was good for everyone. We hadn’t had a chance to rest since we’d visited Slade’s village, and while there we were constantly worried the Dragons would show up and attack. Down here we could truly relax, although we did miss sunshine and fresh air and were all starting to get a little sick of eating fish at every meal.

My mates and I spent our days training with Doran and discussing strategies for the battle at the Spirit Temple. And our nights…we spent those strengthening our bonds together, both as a group and one on one. Sometimes I would share a bed with only one of my mates, since I sensed that they needed their alone time with me. On other nights, two of them would join me in bed. And on our last night together, they all did, taking turns to please me over and over.

And then it was time to leave.

We stood outside the temple, with all of our supplies packed and ready to go. Opea moved forward and embraced me. “Good luck on your journey. We shall be praying for your success.”

“Thank you for everything,” I said.

Opea’s handsome priests bowed before us, while her daughter clung to her skirts and peered out at me. I’d considering asking for their help at the Spirit Temple, since Opea had been blessed with magic from her God like the other High Priestesses, but I was too worried about her young daughter growing up without a mother.

I turned toward my mates and was immediately swept up into Jasin’s arms. He gave me a kiss so full of passion that my cheeks grew red at the thought of my father watching us. I laughed and pushed him back. “I’ll miss you too, Jasin.”

“Be careful,” he said, before stepping away.

Auric embraced me next, before giving me a warm kiss that was a lot less embarrassing but still wonderful. He’d spent much of his free time scouring the temple’s library, but he hadn’t been able to find any real information about the Spirit Goddess. “I’ll be counting down the days until we meet again.”

“Me too.”

Slade gave me a strong hug next, his muscular arms squeezing me hard. I was so proud of him—Slade had worked day and night to practice flying alongside Reven, and Doran had decided they were both ready to travel. I pressed a soft kiss to his lips, and then he rested his forehead against mine as he simply held me close.

“Come back to us,” he said.

“I will.”

Reven was last and he stepped forward slowly, then took my face in his hands and kissed me hard. “I’ll see you soon. Watch your back.”

His words were casual, but I knew what he meant. “I love you too,” I whispered to him.

He gave me a wry smirk, before stepping back. My chest tightened as I stared at the four of them, wishing we didn’t have to be apart for so long. But my bond with each of them was stronger than ever, and even though we’d be far away, we’d still be together.
