Chapter Ten

“Benedict, who is this?” a tall, thin, elegant lady said as she pointed to Abner. Her accent sounded British and she had her nose turned up at him.

“Madam Baggins,” Carter spoke up. “This is Abner.” Carter took Abner’s hand in his. “He’s my mate,” Carter said sheepishly. “It’s still fairly new to us so we don’t go anywhere without each other.”

“Oh, congratulations, Carter.” The lady looked over toward Carter’s parents. “Marybeth, Richard, you must be so proud. What a strapping young man. Warrior, I take it?” She arched a brow at him.

“Yes, ma’am.” Abner gave a swift nod of his head. The lady sat too far away to reach across the table to shake hands.

“Excellent, excellent,” she said as she took her seat and opened up a notebook. “My wife used to be a warrior until my promotion within the council required so much travel.”

Abner turned to look at Carter and mouthed “wife.” Carter smiled and nodded his head. He was gay but he never really thought about two women being mated before. A little small-minded of him, but he was learning something new every day.

“Now, Richard, Marybeth.” Anastasia turned her full attention to Carter’s parents. “Please enlighten us on your last assignment. You were gone for so long and we barely heard from you. For a few months there, we thought you two were dead.”

Carter’s sharp intake of breath had everyone around the table looking at him. Abner tightened his grip on Carter’s hand and rubbed his thumb over his knuckles.

“You didn’t know about this?” Anastasia asked Carter. “No,” Carter whispered.

“Let me explain,” Marybeth said loudly, pulling the attention back to her. “Richard and I were tracking a witch by the name of Vincent. The man was all over the place, never staying in one location for too long.” She looked to her husband then back to the table. “We didn’t call because we weren’t the only ones following him. A group of Dark Warriors were never far behind us.”

“Were they after you?” Anastasia asked.

“No, they were following Vincent. I don’t even think they knew we were even there,” Richard answered. “Because of the dangerous circumstances we didn’t keep in contact with anyone.” Richard gave Carter a small smile. “Carter, we didn’t call you because we feared that the Dark Warriors might be able to track our calls to you or somehow find you. We didn’t want anything we had done to lead back to you or to the council.”

Abner thought what Richard and Marybeth had done made sense. Dark Warriors were just as crafty as the Warriors of the Light and could easily track down a target they deemed a threat.

“So why were they chasing after the same witch you two were?” Anastasia asked.

“It took us a good ten months of tracking him before we got close enough to talk to him. With the Dark Warriors always so close, it was tricky,” Marybeth explained. “We finally cornered him in a rainforest in Brazil. He spoke in gibberish and hardly made any sense at all.
