“She sent me to protect you. Some lady named Andromeda was running from her last I saw. She seemed capable enough. I grabbed Candy, but not before he bit off that female’s arm. Not sure how far she will get.”

Candy licked his chops as Ember rubbed his big ears. “What an impressive beast you are.” She cooed.

“She’s alive.” I let out a relieved breath. Terrek looked at me with relief as well. Pain creasing his brow together.

“We needed to clear this prison and make sure every bastard guard is dead,” I said, putting my head back into the game.

“I will stay here with Candy and guard the entrance,” Terrek said.

I could see his injuries taking a toll. Females of Laverian were trying to tend to him even though they suffered themselves.

“Nala, please move the women back to safety. I will be well. There is no need to worry. Please let me guard this spot. Reinforcements are coming. I have friends coming to help save us all.” Terrek insisted as the female Nala tried to convince the Laverian females to move back.

My heart ached as I saw the females all injured and traumatized, yet they all wanted to help Terrek.

I pulled out an adrenaline shot, handing it to him in case he needed it later, and I placed a clotting pad on his wound. I kissed him quickly.

“I love you, Terrek. “I said as I turned to clear the building with Ember.

I gave Nala a collar release key and a laser shooter. She quickly started releasing her people.

We cleared the prison easily enough, and my wrist hologram showed us blueprints. We found injured females in a so-called infirmary. They looked to be on death’s door, bruised, bloody and unresponsive.

We used the gurneys they laid on to wheel them down to the other females. Their so-called beds were nothing more than body-sized metal trays with wheels. I wish I had a way to offer them coverings and medical aid. For now, that would have to wait.

I went to Terrek and made him sit.

“Time to get off your leg, babe.” I tried to get him to lie down. But he refused.

“Ember and these females will help me fight. Besides, we have Candy.” I insisted.

We could hear the battle outside. It seemed to be dying down. I could only pray that we would be the victors. Terrek stood up when we heard a ship landing outside.

Terrek, Ember, and I stood ready, facing the opening in the building. Candy stood in-between Ember and I ready to pounce.

“I can hardly believe my eyes. That chetaht is tamed.” I heard a Laverian female say to Nala.

“I am just glad it is on our side,” Nala said.

Through the smoke, my Flame emerged in her battle form, like a she-devil from hell.

Her wild red eyes scanned until they landed on me, then Terrek.

A collective gasp left the females behind us as Flame marched forward. In her left hand, she held onto a pitiful Andromeda. She tossed her aside like a piece of trash when Candy pounced and ran after Andromeda.

I heard Andromeda let out a weak cry as I ran and jumped into Flame’s arms. She held me tight as I kissed her scorching lips. She was so hot I almost felt burned.

“Candy, no, Just guard her,” I said as I focused on Flame.

“Don’t ever send me away like that again. I lost my mind thinking you died in a fiery crash.”

“I love you too.” Flame said in a demonic voice.

She was tarnished with grit and dirt, and her suit was ripped on her shoulder. Her markings were golden bright as I watched her completely transform into her normal form. She would frighten me in her battle form if I did not know and love her.

Terrek pulled both of us to him in a tight hug.

“I love you both so much. I do not like having either of you face danger.» Terrek said.
