Nazneen felt Ares's body go limp in her arms, but before she could panic, a fight broke out again. The dragon that had been still, tried to flee as soon as Ares lost consciousness, but Malachi and his brothers were there to stop him.
Nazneen was slightly annoyed that he followed her despite what she said. Had Ares not taken care of things meanwhile, then they could have put him in danger. But of course, he was eager to get his hands on the dragons that possibly hurt him, and his breedmate and Ares wasn't his priority.
As they put their focus on the dragon, Nazneen decided to save her breedmate and ignore them. She carried Ares up and flew away with him to the closest sea she could find. Then she gently put him down on the beach. He was losing a lot of blood, so she hoped this would work. She moved him closer to the sea so that the waves would wash over him.
