When the explosion erupted, Archer used Mana Manipulation on the three won. He pulled them in his direction before wrapping his wings around them as the scorching fire hit his body and burned everything.
'Ahh fuck! This hurts,' Archer thought while gritting his teeth due to the pain.
He felt his skin cooking and his insides boiling, but that's when another explosion rang out and sucked the four of them through another portal as Archer was still protecting Nyx, Maeve, and Ashoka at the cost of his body.
Soon enough, the explosion faded, and they were hurled down a dark tunnel. Monts later, they crashed into a body of water before being violently thrown into a dense forest with a resounding bang that echoed for miles.
Archer was too weak to reach when he saw the beautiful sky with the puffy white clouds, but then the pain washed over his body, causing him to groan as he dismissed his wings, which freed the three won.
Ashoka jumped up on shaky legs, rushed over to him, and gasped when she saw his condition. His skin was charred black, and he was missing both legs along with his left arm, which horrified the trio.
Maeve and Nyx finally got up and rubbed their heads. The orange-haired warrior woman scooped Archer up, saying, "We need to find a place to rest before teleporting back to Draconia."
"We... not... on Thrylos," Archer muttered, strained, sending pain shooting through the rest of him.
He fainted due to the overwhelming pain that the explosion inflicted on him, causing Maeve to take charge as she looked at the tiger woman, "You scout ahead and find us sowhere safe to stay."
Ashoka nodded before readying her sword and rushing off into the dense forest. Before Maeve looked at Nyx, she said, "You stay with to guard Arch. We don't know what enemies or monsters lurk in this place."
Nyx agreed and started tending to the sleeping Archer as his body slowly healed. At this rate, it would take days for him to regain function, which worried the won. An hour passed while Maeve stood guard with her sword at the ready.
The tiger woman appeared with wide eyes as she spoke, "There aren't any monsters or bandits but strange humans in shiny clothes."
Maeve nodded as she spoke, "Nyx, grab Arch, and let's find a place to rest until he recovers."
Following that, the three won darted through the forest while avoiding the strange humans who seed to be looking for soone. Maeve led them through the dense trees until coming to a lake with a few large houses sitting on the shore.
Ashoka spoke concernedly while pointing to the house further west, "Humans are in most of these structures apart from that lone house to the west."
"We will rest there," Maeve exclaid
The three continued running through the trees while avoiding more humans that appeared from the surrounding buildings. Ashoka and Nyx were worried as the chaos dragon comnted, "Maeve. You will be fine here, but Ashoka and I will stand out."'
"I know, I've only seen humans and no other races, unlike in Draconia, where they are everywhere," Maeve answered as they watched the building. "I have a disguise spell. I will show you two once we're safe, but for now, keep your eyes peeled for anyone."
Everyone nodded as Nyx held Archer closer to her chest while he slowly recovered. Once that was decided, Maeve rushed to the entrance and used her tal magic to unlock the door before rushing the others inside.
Once Nyx crossed the threshold, they were all shocked as it was strange. Ashoka looked around as she spoke, "This reminds of the Draconian Apartnts Archer showed back ho."' "Yes, this seems more of a place of relaxation, but enough of the shock and awe," Maeve said while sheathing her sword. "Place Archer on the sofa and cover all the windows so no one will know we're in here."
Everyone got to work, hiding in the house while humans did their business outside. Their actions confused the three won, as Ashoka looked out one of the windows before comnting, "Why do these people look so peaceful?' Aren't they worried about bandit raids?"
"I don't think so, tiger," Nyx comnted as her tail swayed like Ashoka's.
"Look at the smiles on their faces; they seem to be enjoying life," the tiger woman comnted.
"Co here, you two," Maeve said as she walked into the front room after ensuring Archer was okay.
The two won turned around, and the orange-haired woman cast a spell that turned Nyx's ears and eyes into human ones while her scales and tail were hidden. At the sa ti, Ashoka's ears, tail, and eyes changed.
She did the sa to Archer and made him look more human, but Maeve couldn't change too much thanks to being a Demi-God. Everyone looked human now, and that was in perfect ti as a knock rang on the front door, making the three jump in fright.
Maeve quickly moved to it and looked through the side window, only to see a young couple standing there. She looked back at Nyx and Ashoka with wide eyes as she spoke, "There are so humans outside. Should I answer it?"
The two won nodded as Ashoka answered, "They know we're in here. There's no point in hiding now that we look human."
Maeve looked at them before sighing. She opened the door, only to shock the couple when they saw her. 'Don't tell they are already chard? What stupidity is this? My charisma isn't like that of husbands,' she thought while looking at the two humans.
She noticed the woman shaking her head as she muttered, "So beautiful."
"How can I help you two?" Maeve asked, and when they heard her voice, they were shocked again.
This annoyed her, but the man comnted in a curious voice, "Are you from the Nordic countries? Your accent is rare here in Florida."
Maeve just nodded to follow the stranger's words. "Yes, that's where we're from," she answered.
"Are you renting this place of Pearbnb? It's been a while since soone rented out the Randal House," the woman asked.
"Yes. We will be staying here for a week at least," she said. "We are waiting for our husband
to recover from an accident."
The couple were baffled again, and the man questioned, "Our?"
Maeve nodded in response, "Two of my sisters are with us tending to him. Do you know
where we can get healing ingredients?"
When she said that, the man looked baffled, and the woman scrunched her nose as she replied, "You an dical supplies? If so, we have so in our house."'
She watched as the woman turned to the man and said, "Callum, could you grab the first aid kit from the bathroom, please?"
He nodded and quickly rushed off while the woman extended her hand. "I'm Abby Williams. We're staying at my friend's holiday ho for a four-day weekend. Isabella will be here in two days, so you'll et her then."
Maeve took her hand, introducing herself. "I'm Maeve Wyldheart."
The woman nad Abby smiled warmly and added, "Mind if I co in? I'm a trained nurse-|
maybe I can help."
***
Abby watched the strange woman's expression change until she spoke seriously, "Your husband cannot co in. He must stay outside; the other two hate other n, and I couldn't stop them from throwing him out."
She was confused by the paranoia but agreed with a nod, "That's fine. So husbands are extrely jealous of other n."'
"Yes, but you haven't t our husband, Abby," the orange-haired woman replied with a sly smile before stepping aside to let her in.
Abby couldn't resist taking a closer look at Maeve as she stepped inside. The woman was stunning. Her orange hair pulled back into a neat ponytail, highlighted her flawless features
and her body seed sculpted by years of dedication.
"This woman must work hard to have a body like that,' she quietly said, amazed by Maeve's
beauty.
But Abby was even more shocked when she saw the other two won standing with Maeve, equally breathtaking. One had radiant chocolate-brown skin, rich brown hair, and stunning eyes, and she was dressed elegantly in traditional Indian clothing.
'Looks like their husband has a wide range of tastes,' Abby mused, shaking her head in quiet
astonishnt.
Then, the last woman ca into view, and Abby found her incredibly unique. She had striking hair dyed in a bold mix of black and white, with srizing eyes that shimred in shades
of red and yellow.
All three won had figures that ranged from curvy to athletic-curvy, sparking a hint of jealousy in Abby, 'Dammit their husband is a lucky man.'
As she thought that, the realization hit, causing her to question, "Do you three share the
sa man?"
Maeve nodded along with the other two, causing Abby to beco confused, "Are you in a polyamory relationship?"
"What that's?" The brown-skinned woman asked.
'Where have these won been hiding?' Abby thought before explaining, "It's where you all have multiple partners for sex and a romantic relationship?"
Abby noticed all three won cringe at her comnt before the white-haired woman spoke
up. "Eww, no. We're only with our husband. We would never go near another disgusting
male."
She frowned, even more confused. "So, he has multiple won, and you three only have him?" she asked, trying to make sense of the situation.
