Chapter Twenty-One
Trevor must have heard him wrong. Jasper wasn’t coming back?
“Trev, I miss you too, but I want you to listen to me. Until I take care of Theron, I think you’ll be safer with Dante or Frey. I’m not saying I don’t want you in my life; you know I do. It’s just that I can’t watch after you and go after him at the same time.”
He hadn’t heard wrong. Until that moment, Trevor hadn’t realized how much Jasper’s presence had meant to him. “How are you going to take care of him? Do you know where he is?”
“No, but I’m going to find him. I promise. Then you and I can get back to the way things were. Until then, I need you to stay safe for me. Can you do that for me, Trev? Promise me you’ll be careful.”
“Only if you promise me the same thing. We have the Cyanide Sweetness concert to go to, and I’m gonna be really pissed if we miss it.” Trevor didn’t want to think about something happening to Jasper. He hadn’t been willing to complete their bond, but that didn’t mean he was ready to lose the Goyle. Jasper was slowly worming his way into Trevor’s heart. Even though it was an odd feeling, it was one he wanted to continue growing. Never did he think he would have the opportunity to love another man. Now, instead of grasping that opportunity with both hands, he might be allowing it to slip away.
“I promise. We also have a date for Stone Mountain, so I’m going to make this as quick as possible.”
Trevor didn’t know what else to say. He wouldn’t give Jasper false hope for a future together as mates. Dante cleared his throat from inside the waiting room where he and Isabelle were sitting. His boss had probably heard the whole conversation.
“Trev…”
“Jas…” After that there was silence. Trevor wanted to throw his phone against the wall. He wanted to ball up and cry. He wanted to find the bastard Theron and cut his head off. He was standing in the hallway with his head against the wall when Isabelle came to check on him. She pulled him into her arms and hugged him. Dante was probably having a Gargoyle aneurism right about then, but damn if Trevor didn’t need the comfort. He allowed Isabelle to hold him for a few minutes while he regained his composure.
She stroked his hair as she told him, “As much as I want you to stay with us, Frey wants you with them. Matthew is out of school for winter break, and Frey thinks the two of you can keep each other occupied. The decision is yours, though.”
Trevor pulled out of her embrace and asked, “What about Travis? We can’t leave him here without someone. He’s going to have a hard enough time dealing with Rachel’s funeral and healing. I can’t just up and leave him here to deal with all of this alone.” Rachel’s parents had been in earlier to check on Travis even though they were dealing with their daughter’s death.
