The morning after Alex formed the Level 3 bond with Nat.
Yelena's eyes opened with a bright glint. She was completely refreshed after having slept for more than 16 hours. Her eyes opened only to see complete darkness as she realized the presence of the sleeping bag that was wrapped around her entire body rendering her completely immobile. There was also a small phallus-like object inside her mouth that she had been instinctively sucking in her sleep. She hummed to Apex, wanting him to free her.
It didn't take long before the cocoon surrounding her disappeared. Yelena stretched her naked body, forming a sexy arch of her back, "I slept like a baby in that… Can you do that every night?"
[I'll set it as your sleeping outfit. You can just will your sleeping outfit to appear if you want that cocoon to wrap around you.] Alex told her.
"Cool…" Yelena said as she got up and went to the attached bathroom to take a shower.
In the room beside hers.
"Mmm~" Nat moaned into Alex's mouth. They were making out with Nat lying on top of Alex. He was still inside her and Nat was lightly grinding her hips, enjoying some light morning sex with her slime partner.
Alex let Nat take charge and just enjoyed her actions.
It didn't take long for Nat to ride herself to a soft climax while Alex filled her up.
She comfortably lay on his chest, having lost most of her strength with her climax.
"Yelena's already up, you should get her to help you with all these administrative things. You can't take care of everything by yourself." Alex told her, not realizing the hypocrisy of his words. He was controlling two entire planets from the shadows all by himself. Even most of the people that he was working with were being controlled by him and didn't have too much of a critical thinking capacity.
Even though the administration work for entire countries was difficult and not very straightforward, he was indeed doing most of the work by himself.
"In a bit… Last night was a bit too much for me…" She mumbled to him, basking in the warmth of his embrace.
Alex was happy to see her being vulnerable in front of him. It showed him that she was beginning to trust him to some extent.
Soon, both Nat and Yelena got busy.
After Yelena got familiar with some of the administrative work, Nat took a leave for two days to help Tony get some of the necessary permits for their new organization. It ended up bringing up the timeline by months if not years. All of that trouble was due to the newly established Sokovia Accords that made forming a 'vigilante' organization extremely difficult.
For now, things in the MCU were stable, without anything noteworthy happening.
Wanda was still busy learning the Mystic Arts and getting a handle on her own power.
Unlike the other Sorcerers, Wanda was her own walking powerhouse. She didn't have to channel the energies from other entities — Vishanti in particular — to use the Mystic Arts. She was able to cast spells by channeling the energy from her own reserves. In case she needed more, she could channel the energy from the Chaos Dimension — Or Chthon in particular, but that didn't need to be focused on for now.
Plus, Alex was doubtful if Chthon was even the source of Wanda's powers in the MCU, considering that her power here came from the Mind Stone.
…
Earth-Z, with Laura.
"Woohoo!" Laura shouted joyfully as she surfed the waves. Alex was standing behind her with his arms wrapped around her waist as he maintained their balance and made sure that the two of them wouldn't end up drowning.
He was wearing simple beach shorts while Laura was wearing a sexy two-piece bikini that barely left anything to the imagination.
They were currently in what used to be Hawaii. Although most of it was a similar wasteland to most of what Alex and Laura encountered. Another important thing to note was that they also encountered another shelter with a sufficiently large population. They seemed to be sustaining themselves pretty well.
But Alex wasn't very interested in going there so he convinced Laura to ignore it for the time being.
As the wave slowly died down, the surfboard slowly landed on the sandy beach.
"This is so amazing!" She exclaimed and turned to hug Alex tightly before getting on her tiptoes and kissing him deeply, "You're the best…" She whispered in between kisses.
"Of course I am. Do you have any idea how harmful this water is? If a normal person even touched it, they would instantly start growing a few more limbs and would probably lose most of their motor functions." He bragged with a playful smile.
"Yes yes, you're very amazing…" Laura agreed, "Come on, I wanna do it again." She grabbed his hand and pulled him.
Alex didn't move, "There aren't any waves for the next couple of minutes."
"But but but…" She looked at him pleadingly.
A growl interrupted her as Laura and Alex turned to see an abomination. It was a huge ‹Animal Class› turtle.
Laura's face got a light scowl as she said, "Just a moment."
She disappeared from her spot and appeared in front of that turtle. Before it could even register her presence, her claws had stabbed through its exposed skull. A black substance spread through her claws and covered its entire body before devouring it and converting it into EP.
"Good work…" Alex praised her.

Although she hadn't yet breached the Low Cosmic Threshold for her physique, she had grown far stronger than before.
With Alex's regular EP-infused massages that left her a bumbling mess, and constant EP infusion in her bloodstream through her bone marrow, her physique had gotten much stronger than it was when they had fought the million abominations that ambushed the both of them.
"How about we go for a swim?" Laura asked Alex, "If we can't surf, we can swim…" She said thoughtfully.
"Underwater combat could be fun…" Alex said as Laura looked at him confusedly.
"What?" She asked.
"The water is infested with abominations." He told her, "Hell, I'm sure that the oceans are probably many times more dangerous than the land. Can you imagine a blue whale abomination? Or something even bigger having become an abomination?" His words made a shiver run down Laura's spine.
She shook her head, "No! You aren't deterring me from the water. I wanna play in the water. I've never been to a beach before…" She pouted, playing the one card that made Alex always indulge her.
"Fine you pitiful soul who didn't get a childhood…" He sighed and held her hand. He knew that she was just exaggerating things, but he still ended up caving.
"Yay~" She jumped happily and gave him a kiss on the cheek.
Just as her lips made contact with Alex's cheek, he wrapped his arms around her and held her close to himself. Laura understood what he wanted to do and wrapped her legs around his waist, tightly clasping them together.
"Hold tight…" He whispered before jumping high in the air.
Laura's eyes widened before she tightly closed them and buried her face in Alex's neck.
With a splash, Laura felt a splash of water after it hit her back. She quickly held her breath and tightened her hold over Alex.
[Open your eyes…] Alex said and Laura blinked her eyes open, getting used to the water's presence.
[It doesn't hurt…] She mentioned. She'd thought that the radiated water would be harming her.
[Please.] Alex scoffed. As harmful as this water was to the human body, Alex was the perfect counter to any biologically harmful substance like this.
Laura shook her head and turned her head while still holding her breath. She looked around and looked at the beautiful oceanic sights as the duo kept descending lower.
[Shouldn't we stop?] She asked as they kept descending for a minute. It was getting harder for Laura to hold her breath.
[Don't worry.] Alex said as he kissed her. Laura felt him pushing some air inside her mouth and felt heat rising in her body as she realized that she would have to rely on Alex for her air supply.
Although she didn't actually need to breathe anymore and Alex had told her that. She didn't recall it considering that there was no reason for her to hold her breath when she was on the ground. Ultimately, she just thought that it was hot that she would rely on Alex's kisses for air.
He was amused at her thought process and didn't bother to correct her. It would be more fun this way, 'Maybe I could try to take things further…' He thought.
As they both got lower and lower, Laura suddenly heard a loud screeching sound that almost ruptured her eardrums. Within a moment, she felt something wrapping around her ears and the painful sound disappeared. She heard Alex's voice, [Sea creatures are extremely loud. More so after they become abominations. That was the cry of a mutated whale from tens of miles away in the deep ocean.]
[Fuck…] Laura was suddenly terrified of the water, [Let's get out.]
[It's fine. Since we're here, let's test something out.] Alex said, and before Laura could ask for more, their speed of descent increased and she had to tighten her hold around Alex. She didn't realize, but they weren't directly descending down. They were at a slight angle since Alex wanted to reach a certain area on the seabed.
Alex could kiss her and transfer air into her mouth through deep kisses every minute or so. After five minutes, a large fish came into Laura's vision, [There's a fish, Alex…] She alarmed him.
[Well, stab it then.] Alex told her with an amused smile that made her want to punch him.
