"Why the fuck are we here, Bray? Thought we were on our way to the cabin." Dean's voice held a note of irritation at having to wait. "Thought this wasn't going to be long?
"We will leave shortly, be patient. There is someone I must speak with first." Bray looked around the outside of the SUV, frowning at the dark building in front of them. "I ask that you let me speak with them before you upset anyone."
"Who the fuck are you talking about?" Dean scanned the area, trying to see what ever it was Bray saw. Looking closer into the darkness, he stiffened when two figures appeared out of no where. "Who the fuck is that?"
Glancing over at Dean, Bray opened the door. "Stay here, Dean." Voice low with warning, Bray stepped out of the truck.
"The hell I will, who the fuck is that and why are you getting your ass out?!" Dean glared at Bray, his gaze darting between him and the strangers. "Bray, wait."
"Give me a few minutes, that is all I am asking." Bray closed the door and walked forward. "I had not expected to see or hear from you."
Dean watched the pair standing in front of the Jeep, his temper boiling at Bray's lack of answers. Tapping his fingers against the steering wheel, he watched as Bray stepped back towards the jeep, one of the shrouded figures following him. When he opened the door again, Dean was scowling at him. "You gonna tell me just what the..."
"Hello Dean, it's nice to see you again."
Dean blinked in surprise at the voice, body going cold at the soft, flat tone. "What the fuck are you doing here? Juls know your ass in town?" He cringed at her soft laugh, knowing that he already knew the answer.
"Does Sadie still wish me ill?"
"Well considering you tried to kill her on her wedding day, I'd say she was justified." Dean frowned at the auburn haired woman. He couldn't figure out what it was Juls and Bray had seen in her. Wondered again if maybe the rumors were really lies but by the look on Bray's face... "The fuck is wrong with you?"
"We must leave, I do not wish to be seen with her longer than necessary." Bray motioned for the woman to step back. "You understand that coming here was a mistake on your part. I will not keep this from them."
"You will if you wish to keep their friendship."
"Ok, first I'm trying my best to be respectful and not call you what I wanna really call you." Voice low and tight with anger, Dean leaned over into the passenger seat. "But you start making threats against him and I won't give a shit about you being a woman, I'll make sure you won't be able to threaten him again."
"Ooo, such bold words from such a bold man. I see why you favor him above all others."
Bray reached out and grabbed her by her throat. "You are nothing more than a thorn in the side of this my mortal life. Do not believe that any one of us holds any love for you." His hold tightening, he glared at the woman. "You were told if you came here, you would have no friends and to bring anyone with you would be a violation of the agreement made. Now that we see you do not believe in our words, I will allow you to find out the hard way." He let her go, watching impassively as she gasped for air. "You tried to kill one of our own on a day that was supposed to have been blessed."
"That union is a lie and it should have never happened."
"The path you travel is a dangerous one, have care how you tread, Faith. There is not one of us that will allow you to destroy that which we have worked so hard for." Bray turned to get into the jeep only to be stopped by a hand on his arm. Turning, he glared at her. "Do not touch me."
"I only want what's mine, what was promised to me and if I can't have it, why should she?"
"Because that which you asked for was already given to you by another. You want that which is Sadie's and that is something you can not have." Bray shook off her hand and got into the jeep. Closing the door, he looked over at Dean's angry face. "Dean..."
"Fuck you." Dean jerked back from Bray, starting the SUV and putting it in drive. "You could have told me I was going to have to see her tonight. Instead you let me drive all the way out here to have deal with this?! What the actual fuck Wyatt? I thought you guys were through with her?!" Hands tightening on the wheel, Dean glanced over at the silent man next to him.
"She claims there is a child yet refuses to name the other parent until she speaks with the four of us." Sighing, Bray looked out at the passing scenery, the silence in the small space louder than usual. "She does, however say it it one of two possibilities.
"Wait, if you're one then..." Dean broke off as he went over the possibilities. "That's not possible, how old is this kid anyway?"
"About seven or eight, I believe." Bray turned to look at Dean, a frown working his lips down. "If she gets to Sadie, she will do everything she can to make sure he knows."
"What good does it do to tell Sadie? Especially after everything this broad has done to everyone." Dean turned up the small path leading to the cabin, frowning as they passed through the entryway. "We need to get the gate fixed again. Why the hell does it keep sticking like that?" He muttered in irritation.
"It is not a concern, a minor issue we can fix tomorrow." Letting out a rough breath, Bray looked down as his phone vibrated with a message. "Juls is looking for Sadie, said she got a call and after that she left."
"Think she'd go looking for Styles?" Dean put the jeep in park then turned to Bray. "Wait, you said the kid was seven or eight?"
Nodding, Bray opened the door and stepped out. "There is a possibility, however, I do not believe..."
"He was married then! He wouldn't have cheated on his wife with someone else. There has to be another explanation or father for that matter." Dean threw up his hands as he grabbed the bags from the back. "Wyatt?"
Bray pulled out his keys and headed to the door. "We will need to speak with everyone once Shane is back in town. We can not let anyone out side of the circle find out." He sighed as he unlocked the door and pushed it open.
"We also need to keep that chick away from Sadie. If she gets wind of this..." Dean frowned as he set their bags down by the door. "You think that's why she took off? Faith already called Sadie and said something?"
"It is possible, Juls is unable to reach her." Shaking his head, he turned towards the bedroom. "Come, it has been a trying day. Let us retire to our own bed for the night."
Dean frowned as he locked the door and set the alarm. "Wyatt, she's going to make things really messy, you know that right?"
Bray nodded as he walked into their bedroom. "She merely wants attention that she is not worthy of. However, this time, if her claim turns out to be true, there are a number of people that could be hurt by this."
Dean shook his head as he followed Bray into the bedroom. Stripping as he walked towards the bed, he frowned. "She will do everything she can to get next to Sadie."
"Why do you think I went instead of Juls? The level of trust is not high when it involves her. We may have been better served sending Natalia or Shane, despite her claims."
Dean groaned as he laid down under the covers. "Well, let's worry about it tomorrow. Unless Sadie comes out here, we need to rest before leaving the states."
Bray nodded, laying down beside Dean. He pulled him close, arm holding him tightly as his other hand ran through his hair. "She is a danger to us all, a secret that we should have never kept hidden. And now, it may very well cost all of us everything we hold most dear."
