Chapter Seven

Maybe it was just because of the night he’d had or the silver he’d been unintentionally poisoned with, but Mick didn’t wake up again until the sun was in the middle of the sky. That meant he’d slept for nearly six hours.

Six hours, and still no one had found them here. Maybe if the hunters were looking, they were avoiding the camper, thinking that a bunch of humans were nearby.

Whatever the reason, Mick was happy to snuggle closer to his snoozing lover, gently wake him so that they could have another slow, lazy go, which Jason was still more than willing to cooperate with.

By now Mick had come to realize that Jason was not going to simply go back to his normal life, whatever that had been. Jason would follow him, even after the chains came off. And Mick never felt happier.

That happiness made him soft, and he was still lying with Jason in his arms, spooned up behind him, when he should have been making plans to get back to his pack.

“I should meet your family,” Mick said after a time. “I wouldn’t want them knowing what I am, but they’ll at least need to meet me to know who their son is with.”

Even before he finished that sentence, he could feel the way Jason tensed up in his arms.

Clearly, that wasn’t a good idea. “What’s wrong?” Mick asked.

“I don’t have a family,” Jason answered quietly.

Mick puzzled over that. “Everyone has family. What about your friends?”

“Don’t have any of those either,” Jason muttered.

That was right. Deacon was being a prick about announcing how Jason lived alone, but Mick had thought that there had to be someone somewhere that Jason knew.

The topic was clearly upsetting him, but Mick couldn’t leave it alone.

“What happened to them?”

Jason hesitated. “You haven’t known me long enough for me to be dumping baggage onto you.”

“It’s not baggage. You’re mine and I’m yours. I want to be there for you whenever you need me,” Mick said. “But that doesn’t mean I’ll be upset if you need to keep a few things to yourself. Everyone’s allowed to have their secrets.”

Jason half turned to look at him over his shoulder. “Really?”

“Of course. I’m a werewolf. We wouldn’t be able to survive if we didn’t keep secrets from people,” he said. “If it makes you feel any better, I don’t have any family either. I came into my pack pretty young, met James when we were still kids, before he was the alpha, and he brought me to his pack, and that’s where I’ve stayed. They’re the closest thing I have to a family.”

“Do you love them?” Jason asked.

Mick was becoming worried over how small Jason’s voice was becoming. “Yes.”

“They won’t be mad at you for bringing me back?”

“What? No. Why would they?”

Jason sighed. “Because I’m a guy.” The way he said it made it out as though Mick should have known better.

Then he understood. “Jason, did your family disown you?”

Jason nodded. “Yeah. Little hard to be a gay Catholic in a small town, you know? Everyone knows everyone else’s secrets.
