Vicious Bonds {COMPLETED}

41. Seduction

Chapter 41: Seduction.

"However, there is a catch," Milo coughs awkwardly after his short lived moment is interrupted by the mighty warlock.

"What do you mean there is a catch?" Malcolm is the first to shot out of his seat, staring down at his human mate with a furious glare.

"The thing is... I will be warning your past selves about the mess that's going to happen, yet we cannot predict how you'll react to it. There is a chance that nothing changes, or maybe you'll decide to just kill me before it implodes." He explains and they all look skeptical but he continues, "Which is why the mark will help, maybe if you see that you have marked me in the future you wouldn't be as pressured to hurt me?" He laughs it off and they all look at each other skeptically.

"Then we shall not be taking this risk," Arrow stands up by Malcolm's side and crosses his arms over his chest.

"You don't understand," Milo laughs and looks at them individually, "My anchor is still gone, I'm playing on burrowed time here... My only solution of survival is if I die, travel to another point in time and save my ass and all of you. I can also save us from realizing the prophecy of Malcolm and I!" He lifts his arms in the air, regretting to have said anything but then he sees their faces as they realize that it was the only way to save him and their present.

"Everything is so fucking screwed...." He sighs and throws his head back dramatically, "We are royally screwed, unless we pull this off."

"What if the results are worse?" Toby bites at his nails anxiously, out of them all, he seemed to be the most restless at the idea.

"Then I can go knowing full well that I fought till my last breath and beyond," he looks proud as he speaks those words.

"Elijah would've known what we should do to optimize our chances... " Victor glares towards Malcolm who rolls his eyes.

"I was pissed." He comments and tries to look away from Milo's burning stare

"When I'm pissed, I go for a walk, I binge eat my hot Cheetos, I don't rip a man's heart out!" Milo hisses before any of the other husbands gets a word and Victor couldn't help but admire the way he was standing up for him.

He didn't need it and he probably didn't deserve it but to know that the human got his back regardless of their complicated history, it warmed his heart.

"Actually, when you're pissed you go poof for four months and you comeback with a crazy ass plan which I'm totally against by the way!" Toby shrugs his shoulders after an eerie silence sets in.

"Sorry but I know better than to sit on my ass and wait for you to save the day," Milo retorts back and London snickers at the sly reply.

"How much time have we got left before you go coocoo?" Victor takes out a pack of cigarettes from his suit vest and sticks one between his teeth as he searches his pockets for a lighter.

"Not much, Thee days? Give or take? I'm on the third stage and instead of hallucinating, I can shift from one reality to another at will, which is where I've been the last month." He answers vaguely, making them stare at him open mouthed.

"You can actually do that? That's a first..." Arrow passes a lighter to his husband, getting a quick thank you from him.

"If that's so then we should proceed with it right away," Victor sighs deeply, glad that their nightmare was about to be over but at the same time, he couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart at the thought of anything wrong that could happen to Milo, he knew his consciousness will be eternally weighed by that.
