Azura knew that the Horsemen had family who bonded out of reason and to keep alive as well. So, one day, while all 4 were collected, she trained till both Death and War joined her.
She said," I know Death, that both you and War had bonded. And yes, I know more about bonding rituals than you can shake a stick at. What I am wondering is, what if one or the other does not come home from mission that the Charred Council sends you 2 on, than the other sleeps for one hundred years. What if the two of you mated with me so that there is a third person within the bond?"
They conversed about it and all three agreed to bond and become apart of each other and become even closer. That evening had found the three of them together in one place to bond to each other and Azura felt them both fucking her long and hard.
After about 3 hours the three of them went to sleep together after firmly bonding to each other as a last resort of keeping the bond open between all three of them in the event of something worse ever happening.
The next morning had found both Strife and Fury at the house for a well made meal by Azura when eventually both War and Death emerged from the bedroom full dressed and ready for their missions.
And not really mentioning a word about what had happened the night before but the other two had put 2 and 2 together and hadn't even brought it up because that was how canny all 4 of the Horsemen had thought alike and the dragonmage felt wonderful in being part of a family for once within her life.
And not to mention being pregnant as well, but not knowing if War or Death were the father until she had given birth in the next 9 months. She was flitting about the house when she felt Strife's presence and she asked,"Is everything alright Strife? Or is there something wrong?" When she suddenly went still and her battle magics came up and she protected herself from the demon assassins with some help from the gunner.
he asked,"Are you alright Azura? I was trailing these bastards till they had gotten here first, but it seems you kept them off long enough for me to render aide," when he noticed that she was bleeding between her legs and he reached through his bond with their sister, Fury and telling her that Azura was bleeding and he figured that she might be going into labor as well.
The female Horseman arrived right away and she helped Strife deliver the babies and cleaned them while he used healing magic to heal the worst of the bleeding cuts and scrapes between her legs while carefully bandaging others and stitching some of the larger ones as well.
Several hours had passed, when finally, Azura began coming around when she felt both War and Death nearby. Both nervous as cats in a room full of rocking chairs, but relieved that she and the babies were well on the road to recovery. Death shifted just enough until he was sitting behind her and she gave War a weak smile and took his hand in hers while her eyes sought out Fury with a questioning look.
Fury smiled knowing what the other was thinking and she carefully picked up her niece, Selene and scooted War over just to enough to give her to her mother.
