Chapter Twelve

After leaving Mina, a task harder than expected when everything in him urged him to follow, he decided to give Dean a shout. Left behind to see if trouble returned, Dean currently babysat Mina’s building and apartment, keeping a circumspect eye.

His best friend since second grade answered on the second ring. “Miss me?” Dean teased.

“Like a dog misses a burr. How’s it going in the big city?”

“It’s pretty fucking quiet. All people do around here is go to work and come home. The place is depressing.”

“No sign of those thugs returning or anyone casing the joint?”

“Nothing. Nada. Zilch. Although, if I’m lucky, I might end up dead. Of boredom.”

Remy chuckled. “Poor guy. I almost feel sorry for you. What about the area pack? Were they able to shed any light on the kidnappers? Identify if they were local or outsiders?”

“With no one left behind to question and not a single witness who’ll admit anything, they’ve got nothing to go on. I gave them a description of the van and the dickheads, but the vehicle turned up abandoned, stolen only a few hours before the attack according to police reports. As for the men, no one recognizes the description. One thing’s for sure, while they weren’t military, they did seem fairly well-trained.”

A partial relief, because the last thing the pack needed was for the government or some other military agency hunting them. But at the same time, it was worrisome. Military or not, hired hands meant someone out there specifically targeted Mina and his son. The question was, would they keep searching for another attempt? Or had they fled far enough to make whoever hunted them lose interest?

Until he knew the answer to that question, a close eye on his new family wouldn’t hurt.

“So how long do you want me to stay here?” Dean asked.

“A few days at least. We need to make sure you won’t be followed when we pull you back.”

“She’s not coming back, is she? I mean, not because there’s anything wrong with this place that a remodel wouldn’t fix. The joint is a fucking hole.”

Great. Just what Remy needed to hear, more evidence of how he’d failed his woman. “She isn’t going back.” Even if she didn’t know it yet.

“You want me to pack some of her stuff up? You know, pictures and books and shit.”

“If you don’t mind and if you can do it on the down low. We don’t want to attract any attention.”

“Duh. So, how did it go? Your boy looks to be quite the youngster. He’ll be a shit-disturber when he grows up, just like his old man.”

A grin cracked his lips. “Jacques is a true wolf pup. You know, I never gave much thought before to the whole fatherhood thing, but I gotta say, just a few hours with him and it’s addictive. I just wish I hadn’t missed so much time.” There were so many things about his son he wanted to learn and teach.

“And his mother? She’s a cutie.”

“She’s mine.
