Chapter Fifteen

Cam was a grumpy bastard by nature, and it wasn’t often he got himself involved in the affairs of others. Sure, he’d been one of those who’d stood by Ra when Seth’s integrity was questioned, and he was happy to hold the fundraiser necessary for Doc to get the precious ultrasound machine he needed, back when Simon was pregnant. He’d gone with the others as part of the rescue team when Simon had been kidnapped and been part of the rebuild and renovation when Deputy Joe’s house had been wrecked by vandals.

He was happy enough to joke and listen to his customers at the bar, but he rarely offered a firm opinion on anything. For the most part, he felt people around him got caught up in stupid dramas that could be solved with one quick punch, or a drink – whichever was appropriate – and after the life he’d led, Cam couldn’t be bothered to be much more than a spectator to other people’s petty concerns.

But hearing Fergus’s story, holding his kind, sobbing mate in his arms, brought out a need for vengeance Cam hadn’t felt since he lost his friends on the mission from hell. His mind was already running over scenarios – how to get Fergus’s momma back from the clutches of a cruel fold leader. The other offspring could be a problem, but it wasn’t insolvable.

Cradling his mate, Cam rocked his body slightly, offering comfort as most would offer a child. There was nothing childlike about Fergus though, and Cam wondered if his incessant erection would ever go down. Use your big brain, asshole. Think. Strategies. Who to call? We’re going to have to steal her from the heart of a territory ruled by a paranoid man who’s gotten steadily worse. Or… Cam thought about Cannel and Brown. Maybe their visit was more fortuitous than he’d first thought.

While he’d been thinking, Fergus had been slowly pulling himself together. “I’m so sorry.” Fergus sat up and Cam felt the sticky wetness of his shirt pressing against his chest. Even with a red nose and puffy eyes, Cam knew he’d never seen anyone more beautiful. “It just gets to me sometimes and I haven’t heard from momma since that call I had from her on the day we met. She doesn’t even know I’m mated yet.”

“She usually calls on set days and times?”

“Saturday mornings, between eight and nine.” Fergus swiped the tears off his face and sniffed. “She has to do the leader’s washing then. She hid a prepay phone in the laundry and she can usually slip away somewhere private during the wash cycle. Twenty-five minutes. But she didn’t call last week, and I don’t know if she will this week either. Maybe someone found the phone, or maybe her duties have changed. She said that my Uncle Mervin had been ordered by the leader to quit his job as he was needed for territory security which makes it sound like things are getting worse. I’m terrified of what might happen to her if the phone is found.
