Finch winced as he crept around the mill in the darkness. He held his bruised rib. His fast shifter healing had kicked in when he was slammed into the bed of the river after his fight with Keene but for some reason it still hurt. I guess getting hit by the largest tree in the forest by the largest werebear on the planet will do that to you.

The Flint Crew all seemed to be asleep. The camp was quiet and the main house had no lights on.

His heartbeat quickened. He would be seeing Jessica in just a few minutes. He tapped his pocket to make sure that his screwdriver was still there. He would have to take off the bars again.

He raced towards the house, keeping low, and crouched down against the log siding when he arrived. He crept towards the basement window.

“Jessica,” he whispered through the bars.

There was no answer.

His stomach dropped when he thought that something might be wrong. Could Kai have seen us together?

“Jessica,” he whispered again, a little more panicked this time.

“Go away Finlay,” she said, her voice breaking up with sobs.

“Why?” he asked, his heart breaking. What did I do?

“I’m just going to ruin your life,” she answered. “I’m not worth it.”

“Yes you are,” he answered. “You’re everything worth living for.”

Her soft sobs cut through the night like a cancer.

“Come to the window,” he begged.

She sniffed. “I can’t.”

Finch pulled out his screwdriver and began frantically taking off the bars. He pulled them aside after he removed the last bolt and tossed the metal bars behind him. He slid open the screen and climbed through the window.

Jessica was curled up on her bed, her angelic face red and puffy and wet with tears. She even looked gorgeous when she cried.

She held up her hand and Finch cursed under his breath when he saw the chain locking her to the bed like a slave.

“Come with me,” Finch pleaded. “We can escape together. Beckett and Ellis have a cousin in New Hampshire named Connor. He runs a crew of Werebears. We can stay with him.”

“You don’t understand,” she said, her eyes glistening in the moonlight. “He’ll find us. I know he will. Then he’ll kill us.”

Finch squeezed her hand. “What can we do?”

She wiped her eyes and leaned into him, her soft body pressing against his. Their bears purred as they always did when together. “Just hold me.”

He wrapped his arms around her and breathed in the apricot scent of her hair. He kissed the top of her head as his mind raced through options. He could ask Beckett and the guys for help but he didn’t want to see any of his brothers get hurt. His only other option was to speak with Kai and hope for the best.

“I can feel you thinking,” she said. “You’re tense. Just please let it be. Let’s enjoy tonight and then end it. We must go our separate ways.”

He stroked her cheek. It was wet with tears. “You can’t mean that.”

She exhaled long and hard.
