Chapter Nine

Later that morning before the sun rose in the sky they were up and continuing their hike toward where Casper was being held. Seth took the lead with Holden at his back. Jake brought up the rear and took advantage of checking out Carl’s rear end as he walked in front of him. Every now and again his fingers would itch to just have one little touch but he would clench his fist to resist the urge.

Carl had lived a less-than-perfect life for the past three years. His alpha took advantage of him and used him in ways no young man should have to endure. Jake felt mighty lucky that Carl had opened up to him at all. The time they spent together last night had been perfect. Carl had been so accepting of his touch and Jake couldn’t wait to do it all over again.

About two hours into their hike Seth stopped and they had a snack. Carl walked over to him and Jake couldn’t fight the grin that lit his face. His mate’s eyelids still looked heavy and his cheeks had an adorable rosy tint to them. Jake imagined that was how Carl would look like every morning when he woke up.

“I can’t wait until this is all over,” Carl said. He crossed his arms over his chest and his eyes darted around like he was afraid someone was watching him. “It’s only been a day but I know what Tobias and his men are capable of. He’d do anything to get back at me for leaving and I’m scared Casper is paying the price for my disobedience.”

“Carl, you can’t think like that.” Jake pulled Carl into his arms. “What has happened isn’t yours or Casper’s fault. I truly believe if you were still there Tobias would still be doing those awful things to both of you. You did the right thing by escaping.”

“Thanks for saying that, Jake. But I just made things worse.” Carl pulled out of Jake’s embrace and turned away from him.

Jake stared at Carl as he stood facing the trees. His shoulders were hunched over and his head hung low. Jake would give anything to make Carl happy and if it meant tearing down Tobias’s house to make that happen then so help him, he would do it.

“If you never left that house of horrors you would never have met your mate.” Jake looked over his shoulder at the sound of Seth’s voice. “You can stand there and pity yourself or be grateful for what you’ve gotten out of this.” An evil grin turned up the corners of Seth’s lips. “Then get angry. Get so fucking pissed off you see red. We’re going to need that anger to help get your brother back. Don’t be the victim anymore.”

Jake glanced back at his mate. Carl’s jaw was clenched tight and his eyes were narrowed as if he were indeed ready to fight. Seth’s words must have done the trick. His mate’s nostrils began to flare as he took deep rapid breaths.
