Blaze's pov
I held labyrinth in my arms, still suspended in the air long after my uncle completely burned away. I felt like I was still in some sort of trance, after I got almost too hurt to move, when I watched my mate dodging all my uncle's attacks, even though he handled it incredibly well, it didn't stop me from feeling worried throughout the whole thing.
I was still hurt when my mate began to fall in the air, and that was what prompted me to ignore the pain and dive straight into the air to prevent him from falling.
The plan I got in that moment had been half baked but I was glad it ended up working out. I let out a long exhale, eyes darting around at the people crying out from relief and joy now that their king was no more.
