Change of POV is good, but don't make the side characters seem like MC, as is the case in Epic Fantasy novels. Also, please don't focus on a single side character for numerous chapters continuously, if possible. There was this novel that I read in which I had problems figuring out who the MC is, and I didn't like that one bit. That being said, the way you have been writing uptill now is excellent and please do keep on writing as such in the future. This novel is readily advancing in my personal top novel list and is now one of my favourites.
Wait, so Jake who is much taller,physically stronger, and stronger in aether cant catch up to Tim who is a teenager with stats probably a bit better than an average *****. Maybe Tim ,at best, is as at the level of a top class Olympian athlete but regardless Jake should be able to catch up very quickly. It's also weird that Jake hesitated to go and protect the kid, whose only real 'family' is Jake and his group. Maybe his bloodline is affecting his thoughts to make him more prone to being a predator which means he wants to hunt more than he wants to protect Tim. Or it could be that his bloodline species just train their young very harshly from a young age and thus at Tim's age , in Jake's mind, he should be able to protect himself. I wonder if we will ever get to see an overprotective Jake like a mother bear that rips apart any threat that gets within eyesight of her cubs. Maybe that will happen if his cousin gets hurt or Ruby or if he has his own kids.
