Chapter 0153
“That is my risk to take, besides, what better way to test if’s safe to take Josie through? I’d rather get lost in the void and prove it’s not safe for her than risk taking her through it with no idea if it’s even possible. Take me as the test subject, if you can port me there and back then you can bring Josie home,” he demands and when he puts it like that I dont have much of an argument. I’d never forgive myself if I lost him in the vold, but if I lost Josie in there it would be the end of us all.
“Fine,” I sigh, “but we can’t tell the others or they’ll stop us,
“Agreed,” he nods “When do we leave?”
“After our coffee?” 1 suggest, and Axel raises his cup, clinking it with mine before knocking it back like it’s not hot.
“Ready when you are,” he grins,
“Is there nothing you want to do or anyone you want to see before we leave? We may not make it back,” I ask, nerves beginning to flutter in my gut. Axel looks around the kitchen in thought.
“Nope. My family won’t even notice I’m gone,” he shakes his head. “What about you?”
“I already said my goodbyes weeks ago, I’m not repeating that. Besides they might try to stop me this time,” I shrug before knocking back my coffee like Axel had. Instantly regretting it as I feel the burn travel all the way down to my stomach. A pulse of desire comes from Josie and I try not to react to it.
“Seems like a good time to go. Everyone is about to be distracted,” Axel adjusts himself in his pants and shakes his head as if shaking away his thoughts, “Let’s go find our girl,”
“Hold onto me, whatever you do, don’t let go. If we get stuck in the void and end up separated I’ll never find y you,
I warn.
‘Can’t I just shout until you find me?” He frowns.
“No, the void absorbs sound. If you do get lost there then don’t let the darkness take over your mind. You’ll see things, awful things, but they’re not real. Ignore them and ght with everything you have to port out. You have the ability to port, so don’t give up trying,”
“Okay,” he nods.
“Are you
sure about this? I won’t think any less of you if you’ve changed your mind,” I ask, giving him one last opportunity to back out of this insane plan.
“I’m sure,” he steps forward and grips both of my shoulders with a nod. I take a breath and asses the best way to hold him when an idea comes to me. An idea so simple that I want to slap myself for not thinking of it soon.
“Do you have a belt?” I ask.
“Yes, why?” He raises a brow,
“Go get it, if you have more than one bring them too,” I say before rushing to my room to retrieve the two belts I bave. Axel returns with three belts and I quickly put one around my waist, motioning for Axe to do the same. I loop the belts through each other before fastening them, attaching Axel to my hip. Then I use the others the bind our arms and legs together.
Well we look ridiculous but if this works then it’s a great idea,” Axe laughs looking down at our bodies tied together.
“I can’t believe we never thought of this before,” I shake my head at my own stupidity. “Ready?” I ask.

“Yes,” he nods and I close my eyes, take a breath, and attempt to port us to the human realm.
