Nate

I woke up and instantly cradled my head feeling like I had the world's largest hangover. "What the fuck?" I grumbled and heard Luke stirring near me as well, muttering under his breath.

"Oh thank fuck you two are awake," Gabe said. "I thought Kota was gonna have a stroke worrying about you all. Now if little wolf would just wake up."

My head snapped as I met his dancing blue eyes, then I looked around the room realizing who else was there. Luke's eyes were as wide as mine as he asked, "H...how? I was a fucking dog."

Loki chuckled, "Yeah, Nate too, Cade was stuck while Kota got shoved to the back, and Owen, well," he waved his hand toward the towering fiery-skinned demon in the room.

"Damn, Owen, um..." I sputtered.

"Not a word, Nate," he growled, giving me a glare. Yep, that's Owen.

Luke

Eveleen still hadn't woken up and it was making me nervous. "Stop pacing like a damn dog," North groaned.

"Haha, very funny," I grimaced, wishing he'd fall on his ass. Suddenly the chair under him vanished.

"What the fuck?" he roared, "Who the fuck did that?" he demanded looking around the room.

"I...I think I did," I admitted. "I was thinking how I wanted you to fall on your ass for the dog comment, and then the chair vanished."

Loki gave me a curious look. "Has this happened before?" I shook my head no. "Hmmm...I wonder. Nate, has anything like this happened to you before?"

"No, I mean I've been able to conjure for quite a while now, but not without a spell or intent," he said. "Maybe Luke's thought was intent, he just didn't realize it."

"But how did he suddenly get that power?" North asked. "He's never had it before."

"He's never been turned into a hellhound before. Never been exposed to the blood of a demon and the power of a goddess before either. It's possible that when Eveleen bit both of you, she transferred powers to you. Since she carries Deimos's blood, it's possible you even gained some of his powers. I mean, hell, look at Owen," Loki answered.

"He made her drink to save her," I said quietly.

"What?" snapped Victor.

"After I bit her, we both woke up in some kind of pocket dimension. I was begging her to wake up and fight me. The hellhound venom was poisoning her, then suddenly Deimos is there telling her to drink and let his blood protect her. He was the one who suggested she bite us to try and break the hellhound effects. When she drank, we both snapped back and she was able to overpower me and bite me."

"Just fucking great," Victor muttered. "I swear this fucking guy can't quit messing with our lives."

"She might have died, if he didn't step in," I argued.

"Yeah, and if he'd stayed the fuck out of our lives, she wouldn't have been in danger - none of us would!" he yelled.

"Well we can't undo it now, mo dhragún, so quit your bitching, and let's go speak with the Void to get some answers," Eveleen's pissed-off voice came from the bed. Her eyes swirled and were like magnets drawing me in. She turned to Nate and me, "How are you two feeling? I didn't hurt you did I?"

Nate laughed, "We attacked you, well, sort of, and as usual, you're worried about us." Rolling his eyes, he sat on the bed next to her and pulled her into his arms, "You, my amazing Valkyrie are beyond words." He ran his hands through her hair and nuzzled her neck, "You smell good, baby. Finn is anxious to see your wolf," he grinned, then held his hand out to me. I cautiously approached the bed, terrified she would hate me.

I guess my fear seeped through the connection because she leaned forward and latched onto me, hugging me tightly. "I could never hate you, mo áthas. Even if you had turned me into a hellhound, I'd have been blessed to spend eternity with you as my mate," she giggled, then whispered softly, "Not to mention, you were quite forceful, Daddy."

I groaned as I felt Ian pacing in my mind. "Fuck, Pixie...the things you do to me. Hell, the things I want to do to you." She just giggled again and put her head on my chest as she continued to hold Nate's hand.

"Wait, where's Cade?" she asked, her head popping up.

I chuckled, "Cade let Kota take control again. He's been eating everything in sight and was taking a nap. Apparently, Sang wasn't the best at owning a pet." I swear her body vibrated as she let out a low growl. The sound made me instantly ache with desire and I heard Nate or maybe it was Finn, let out a whine. "Keep that up, little girl and we're going to fuck you senseless right here, right now." I felt the rush of her desire light up the bond. It was so thick it dripped just like her core. She moaned when Nate's hands slid under her ass, shifting her position slightly. I was thinking of how I wanted to explore her naked body and just like the chair, her dress vanished.

Loki chuckled as he shooed the rest from the room, "Careful there, Luke. I have a sneaky suspicion your magic is just as strong as mine now.
