strong. So he heard Rhett and his buddies desire to take turns in raping him.”

“That’s awful. But I have to ask, who were the other men?”

Garrett asked, confusion clear in his tone. “Like I said, he’s a loner, and as far as I know, he isn’t close to any other fellow pack members.”

“I didn’t get their names.” Logan shook his head. “All I remember is they all wore black. Well, there was one thing I haven’t mentioned before because I thought I was just seeing things. But their eyes were black. Not like they had black eyes, but the actual eyeball was black.”

Logan never told Finn that because he just assumed it was the poor lighting in the pitch-black night. No one could possibly have black eyes like that. Could they?

“Are you sure, Logan?” Finn asked as he looked over at the twins.

“Yes. Why? Does it mean something?” He wasn’t following what was going on.

“It means Rhett is hanging out with a bad crowd,” Lawson answered for him.

“This so isn’t good,” Carter said from his left.

Logan watched as Finn, Garrett, Lawson, and Lachlan pulled out their cell phones and started punching in numbers. They all paced around the room frantically. Something was going on, and he had no clue what it was.

“Carter, why isn’t this good? What’s going on?” Logan felt dizzy watching the men walk around the room speaking rapidly into their phones.

“You said those guys with your ex had black eyes. That only means one thing.”

Logan threw his hands up in the air as he glared at the witch.

“And what is that exactly!” he shouted.

“It means we’re dealing with Warriors of the Dark.” Logan’s mouth fell open as he stared at Carter. The witch nodded his head.

“So you know what that means? You’ve been getting it on with one of the bad guys.” Carter chuckled.

“This isn’t funny,” Logan snapped. “And I never ‘got it on’”— Logan made air quotes with his fingers—“with Rhett.”

“Whatever, dude. I’m not here to judge.” Carter’s head followed in time with Garrett’s steps. “But what I find more interesting is that Garrett wasn’t aware that one of his own had strayed from the pack.”

“I was thinking the same thing.” Logan looked up when Finn spoke. Finn ran his knuckles across Logan’s cheek, and Logan leaned into the touch.

Garrett cursed loudly then hung up his phone. “That was my next in command, Wes, he can’t locate Rhett anywhere. It’s like he’s disappeared.”

“Ben wants us back at the warrior compound now,” Lachlan said as he walked over to the group.

“You’re leaving?” Garrett’s voice hitched as he looked at the other man.

“Yeah, I’m leaving. This place isn’t safe, Garrett.” Lachlan motioned around the room. “And if your pack has been compromised, it could mean bad things for the Warriors of the Light, and I need to help protect my family.”

Garrett clenched his jaw so tight Logan could hear his teeth grind together from the stress. “I’m your family, too. Or have you forgotten already?”

“I haven’t forgotten anything because there was never anything worth remembering.” Lachlan turned around and headed out the door.

I’ve lost him. Oh god what will I do without the man I love? Why does everything I say come out so wrong?

Logan’s eyes began to water as he looked at Garrett. He wanted to say something to ease the man’s pain, but he had nothing to offer.

“Come on, honey, let’s go.” Finn pulled him up to stand and guided him toward the entryway. “Garrett, we’ll stay in touch. If you see Rhett anywhere let us know. If he’s associating with Dark Warriors, it’s a council matter now.”

“I will, Finn. I have my men on it right now. If he’s still hanging around, we will find him.”

They were heading toward their car when Garrett called out to Finn. Finn turned to look at the alpha. Logan could see the desperation in the man’s eyes.

“Keep him safe will you. I know I don’t have any claim to him and he’s made it quite clear he doesn’t want me, but I couldn’t bear it if something were to happen to him.”

Finn nodded. “He’s a lot tougher then you think. It’ll take more than some Dark Warriors to bring down Lachlan.”

Garrett gave a nod and stepped back into his house.

Once settled into the car, Lachlan pulled out onto the road and headed toward the warrior compound. Logan
