"Ani... run. You need to run." This was the second time Zephyrus told me to leave this place. My body was still heavy from that bastard's disgusting mark, but I could feel his power slowly fading. I could soon move my body and teleport to be next to my mate to fight. I knew he was fighting; I could feel his pain as my own. I could feel his rage, but beneath it... His fear and something far worse. "f**k, Zeph!" I said through gritted teeth, forcing my body to stand up even though every move I made hurt. I felt as if a current ran through my body, limiting my movement. "Thethys, I need some help," I pleaded, because my power wasn't enough. "I'm trying, Ani, but this mark is stronger than I had expected, and if I use all your power, you won't have any to fight," She explained.
