Chapter Eight
Kyle knew he was a long way from home. Not because of the time he spent in the car, which he figured was at least eight hours. Hell, they could have just driven me around in circles for that long to disorient me. No, Kyle could tell he was in a strange place because of the smells.
The last thing Kyle remembered was falling asleep in the car. When he woke up, the hood had already been removed, and his wolf was going crazy trying to find anything that might smell familiar to him.
Kyle had never been away from home before, and he was familiar with every different smell in his house and territory. On the odd occasion, a stranger with an unfamiliar scent would pass by but they never stayed long. Well, strangers were rare, until Alpha Aiden had taken over from his father, bringing with him the assassins and encouraging enforcers from other territories to fight for a position with him. It was those challenges that led Sean indirectly to him â after Kyle and Michael completed the challenge circle and stands for the new alpha.
There must have been some kind of smell deterrent in the material, Kyle thought, pulling his mind away from the past. He didnât remember smelling anything in the car apart from the leather of the seats, the two brutes in the front seat. And the lingering scent of Sean on his clothes, hair, and skin.
Thatâs what kept him going the most as he sat helplessly shackled in the back of the car. Thoughts of Sean. But now that the mask was off, every fiber of his being perked up and he started to familiarize himself with his new surroundings.
He was in an apartment of some kind, but there was no overriding scent indicating anybody lived in the place. Itâs more like a hotel room, Kyle figured, as he noticed there were no personal effects or pictures around at all.
The furnishings were new and impersonal, as if chosen purely for practical purposes. There was a couch that would fit two people, the bed heâd woken up on, a small night table and a kitchenette that had a kettle and toaster but not much else. There was a desk that probably doubled as a dining table and two wooden chairs. The only other major thing in the room was a huge television screen mounted to the wall.
Kyle tried the door even though he knew it was hopeless. It was a heavy fire door, reinforced with steel and double bolts â clearly locked from the outside. There would be no way Kyle could get through it, even with claws.
Sean could do it. If only he was here.
But Kyle knew there was no point in crying, even as he brushed the tears from his cheeks. Instead, he went over to the window, looking out past the bars that were secured outside of the glass.
Forest â thereâs an awful lot of forest around, but for once the great outdoors didnât make Kyle or his wolf feel any better.
