Chapter 15

Charles and Jackie finally made an appearance around dinner time. Robert had already fixed dinner and they sat down to eat.

“So tell me, Jack. How do you like your new life as a shifter?” Robert asked.

“It’s amazing. When Charles and I ran up to the Peak, it was exhilarating. It was like my spirit had been set free. I always knew I was different, but this is so much more. Thank you, both of you, for saving me.” She smiled. “I have to give Amy credit too. She taught me how to shift and filled in all the blanks. There was so much I didn’t know and I had so many questions; she was very patient. She’s the first friend I’ve ever had.”

“Jackie, I hate to ask, but do you know why someone would come looking for you?” Robert asked. “Where was that truck driver taking you, do you know?”

“I don’t know, he kept me locked in that truck. He did say that he was going to make a lot of money because I was a freak. I think he was thinking out loud. When he said it, he thought I was asleep.”

“Did he know you were a shifter?” Charles asked.

“I don’t know. He must have, my uncle must have told him. Why else would he call me that?”

“All of this doesn’t make sense. If that was the case, I wonder why he let us take you so easily without a fight?” remarked Robert.

“There was one stop we made, he told me it was the end of the line. He locked me in the truck like he always did, but when he came back he was furious. Said people wouldn’t believe him and they wouldn’t pay him.”

“Shit!” was all Charles could say.

“What? What’s wrong?” Jackie asked.

“He was telling people you were a shifter? That’s not good. We try to keep it a secret. If people find out about us, some people will come after us.”

“There is more to this, Charlie. He might have been trying to sell her to the highest bidder. Someone must have contacted him after we took her away from him and either he wants her back to collect the money, or someone already paid and he needs to get her back.”

Charles looked at him. “Robert, what are you talking about. What do you know that I don’t know?”

“Sorry Charlie. Agent Adams called a while ago, I guess Mack called him and told him what was going on with Jackie. He said that there have been a lot of shifter disappearances lately; mostly female shifters in their late twenties to early thirties. It’s what he’s been working on. I think that’s why he had to leave so suddenly after Mack’s wedding. Anyway, they’re being sold to rich bastards that like to have a novelty. Nothing like having a pet on a leash that can turn into a fuck. Not willingly, mind you. Sorry Jackie.”

“That’s okay, don’t worry about it. So, what do we do now and who is Agent Adams?

“Agent Adams is an FBI agent with a special shifter squad out of Seattle.
