Summary: Quetzal goes off with Lilith to help protect her... but who's going to protect him from her?

After Alan and Ebony had decided to split up to cover more ground, Leo had volunteered to accompany her. He didn't like the idea of an expectant mother wandering off by herself in a place like this.

They'd hardly walked more than a few hundred feet when the air was filled with the mouthwatering scent of fresh-baked sopapillas. It took a deep pull of willpower for him to turn it down. Not to mention the dishes of brightly-colored hard candies that seemed to line the path.

Then the fog set in. Subtle and insidious, like a late-autumn mist it floated in, making things fuzzy, obscuring what lay ahead and what lay behind and where they were and... why they were there and... Had it always been like this?

"Ebony?" he asked uncertainly, though the rest of the question seemed to evaporate from his mind.

She'd agreed to Leo coming with her, though she'd hardly needed him to watch over her. As a demon she was formidable, pregnant or not. It made him feel better and gave him a purpose, so she really didn't mind.

The candy had been hard to ignore. Cravings were monstrous, no pun intended, but she'd kept moving, finding having Leo with her to be a grounding thing. She was glad he was with her. She was always glad to have him by her side...wasn't she?

He called her name and she turned to him, reaching out a hand to him automatically. "I'm here, Leo."
