Timothy’s request was not realistic.
“I’m afraid to go near the place. The last time he saw me, he told me he wished that I was dead. He might kill me and laugh while doing it.”
They both looked over at him like he’d lost his goddamn mind.
“What?” Callen said. “Wyler, he’s not going to kill you. The worst thing he’ll do is pretend you’re already dead. You’re the safest one here. Hell will freeze over before he goes near your cabin. He’s coming here next once he wakes up. He’s going to eventually appear here!”
Timothy knew what he needed to do.
“When the man he’s with shows up, I need to speak to him. Then, I’ll work through this.”
Callen rolled his eyes.
Oh, he knew what Timothy was going to do.
Cause.
Chaos.
“One day, Dad, your meddling is going to make a shitmess we can’t clean up. Why can’t you leave him alone? Let him just live his life.”
It did Timothy’s heart good to see Callen defending his brother. That meant he was back on the path to healing, and now, he had to get Ethan back there too.
That would all be dependent on one thing. He needed a reason to go back.
If the man came, Ethan would be fine until that final day where he lost it all again and then found the Raven.
“Oh, well, I’m sorry, pristine men in this family. I won’t meddle with my alcoholic son who keeps pollinating all the women in this tribe, and my other son who humps all the white women like it’s an Olympic sport.”
Callen stared at him.
And then laughed.
There was no doubt where they got their antics from, and it wasn’t Wyler.
That was for damn sure.
“I mean, it should be. I could have a gold medal and my face on the front of a cereal box.”
Timothy pointed at him.
“Just leave the man alone and let me handle it. I’ve been in the smoke, and it’s all hinging on one last thing. If this fails, you will die a spinster like your father.”
“HEY!”Wyler stated. “Why am I catching strays? I didn’t say shit.”
Oh, he knew why.
From where he sat, Callen sighed.
“I hate this Native woo-woo shit.Dad. Stop. Meddling. In. Our. Lives.”
Timothy shrugged.
“Even if it gets you a hot woman who will give you babies and love you so much that if you get a sliver, she worries about you?”
He paused.
“How hot is hot?” he asked.
