Chapter 278: Falling
3rd person’s pov
The hole the two mates were currently dangling over appeared bottomless. It was like an endless void of darkness and immense fear wracked through labyrinth as he clutched his mate’s hand tightly. His grip on Blaze’s stone turned hand was a little slippery and fear clutched at his throat.
Blaze was clearly in so much pain and he was panting with the strain on his entire body right now, because he was using all of his strength to hold his mate up. But he’d never let go of his mate, no matter what. He was gripping a strong pole with his other hand and he tried using that same hand to climb out of the hole, while his hold on his mate was still tight and firm, but he realized that he couldn’t.
He let out a groan as pain suddenly began to rush through the hand he was using to hold his mate, and at the same time, the pain rushed through the hand wrapped around the pole.
"You’re in so much pain because of me." Labyrinth cried out as guilt engulfed him while there rolled down his eyes.
Blaze gritted his teeth at another wave of pain and shook his head adamantly. "No, don’t say that. None of this is your fault." He insisted with a pained huff while his head pounded really hard.
"Don’t you worry, I’ll get you out of here? Okay? I’ll get us out of here." Blaze continued, panting hard as pain suddenly began to spread through his chest.
"Are you s- sure?" Labyrinth whispered right after the pole shifted, which made them swing around a little, and that movement sent pain rocking through Blaze’s entire body.
Labyrinth wasn’t blind. He could see that Blaze was in so much pain; and he could see that if Blaze wasn’t holding him up and keeping him from falling, he’d have been able to cling out of this pole and get himself to safety. Labyrinth knew he was the one holding Blaze back right now, and also putting him in so much pain by making him strain his hands so much.
Before labyrinth could speak, two faces suddenly popped out at the edge of the hole.
Their fathers, and they were very pissed.
