Chapter 17
Christian bristled when he thought about Raven in that jail cell. Not only was Keystone a man down, but they’d left her behind. Fifteen days was a blink of an eye, and they would probably be done with this mission long before that. But it still vexed him.
Viktor had banished the twins to the bedroom in the back, but Christian heard their ears rubbing against the door. He tuned out all the childish whispering to give this shitebag kidnapper his undivided attention.
Carol and her so-called boyfriend were sitting on the sofa behind the driver’s seat, her hand clutching his. Shepherd focused on the road, but Blue was watching them with a hawkish stare from the passenger seat.
Christian nudged Viktor, who was staring at the wee lass like a disappointed father put in charge of punishment. “If I can’t scrub the eejit, at least let me charm him for information.”
“I said I’ll talk,” the boy grumbled. Boy. Now there was a word that didn’t seem to fit. Shifters often matured quickly after their first change, so the ones capable of shifting were easy to spot. “I have nothing to hide.”
“No, you just have something to steal,” Claude said from the seating area adjacent to him. He sat on the side facing the kids, his arms folded and feet resting on the opposite bench. Christian didn’t usually see Claude with such a baneful disposition. Shortly after recovering the pair on the side of the road, Claude had pinned the lad to the floor and threatened to disembowel him. Once he found out the kid was only sixteen, he backed off.
Reluctantly.
The plastic cover on the broken window rattled from the rushing wind outside. Blue had secured it with duct tape and shut the broken blinds to keep the vehicle warm. Apparently Viktor hadn’t secured one with good heating.
Viktor glanced at his watch. He looked like a Russian agent in his black turtleneck and cargo pants, which he’d changed into shortly after leaving the jail. Christian had never seen the man in pants like that, not to mention the hiking shoes, so he had a feeling they would be ditching the RV soon.
“What is your name?” Viktor asked.
“Joshua Salsbury.”
“Like the steak?” Shepherd asked, an unlit cigarette wedged between his lips.
Joshua swung his dark eyes to the front. “No. It’s spelled differently.”
He definitely acted like a child, despite his furtive look and brawn.
“What if he’s not sixteen?” Christian pondered as he stroked his beard. “What if he’s only saying that to save his arse?”
Joshua reached in his back pocket and slapped his wallet on the floor. “My alias ID shows my age. You can look it up if you want.”
Christian lifted the wallet and thumbed through the pockets. He didn’t give a shite about the kid’s ID; he wanted to see if there was a condom in there. Obviously they hadn’t done anything yet or else Carol would be licking her paws, but Christian didn’t quite know how it worked with Potentials. Sex made
