Chapter 125-2 âAlmost two hours,â he told me, I could hear how he was trying to hold it together to make me feel better.
âIâm in a quite large room, the walls look to be concrete or something. There canât be too many buildings like that within two hours of the hotel,â I said.
âNo, there canât. Iâm talking to the head of the council now. They have given me full access to all their people and resources. I will find you, Red. I will come for you and I will kill my fucking brother, he told me with so much conviction it caused a tear to fall down my face.
âI know you will find me. But Finn, we donât know if this was your brother or not. I havenât seen who is keeping me here,â I told him. I didnât want him to do something he would regret.
âI know itâs him. I can feel it in every bone in my body. Just stay with me Red, keep talking to me so I know you are okay!
âIt just doesnât make any sense for him to grab me. He has to know everyone would suspect him, right? And he has done nothing to stop our mindlink. I mean, it would have made sense if he stuffed me into the back of a car and drove until we couldnât connect to each other. But he has me set up in this room which obviously is in mindlinking distance to you,â I said. I got the sense in our link that Finlay was chuckling.
âDid you just rate your own kidnapping and give my brother an F?â Finlay asked. I had to smile. Having the link to my mate kept the fear and panic at bay.
âIâm a little insulted they did such a sloppy job,â I told him.
âDonât be too harsh on them. It makes it easier for me.â Somewhere, a door opened and closed. I could hear footsteps.
âFinn, someone is coming,â I told him.
âListen to me, Red. You donât do anything stupid. All you have to do is keep yourself safe and I will find you. Donât be a smart ass and provoke my brother,â Finlay said. He knew me too well.
âI will do my best.â The door to the room opened and let in sharp, white light that momentarily blinded me. I turned my head away from the light and closed my eyes. I didnât want to lose my dark vision.
âWell, looks like she is awake,â someone said. I recognised the voice squinted in its direction and saw the door had been shut. I opened my eyes fully and looked at Finlayâs brother and his former Beta.
âAre you two insane? How stupid can you be? Did Finn get all the brain cells in the family?â I asked. Then I remembered my promise to Finlay and sighed. At least I had kept it for half a minute.
âShut the fuck up, you bitch!â Karo, the former Beta shouted. I looked at him. He looked like he was about to pop a blood vessel any moment. I switched focus to Ryan. His anger wasnât as obvious. It was just under the surface, bubbling, seething, and it made me ten times as nervous.
âDidnât you like my way of inviting you to some family time?â he asked with a wicked grin. âWe are family now, arenât we? You being mated to that brother of mine and even expecting his pup.â His words made something click in my mind.
âFinn, you canât come here. The reason your brother has made it so easy for you is because he wants you here. He has something planned. Stay away,â I mindlinked my mate.
âNot going to happen Red. Iâm not leaving you there with him. I dont care what he has planned for me. I will get you and our pup to safety,â he replied. I cursed in my head. He was going to be stubborn and come rushing into this without thinking. I had no one else to mindlink, no one I could ask for help to at least make Finlay think it through before he acted. We should have brought Sam, I thought. We could have let him stay in a camper some distance from the hotel. I just hoped our friends and my brother would help him.
