Epilogue

Quinn

“DidI tell you I found a job?” Quinn asked. She leaned back in the leather recliner, putting her feet on the ottoman in front of her. Her ribs protested slightly, but nothing terrible.

After a month, she was finally almost better.

“Doing what?” asked George.

“Web stuff again,” Quinn said. “It’s actually kind of a funny story.”

He laughed. “Someone hired you even after your last job?”

“Someone bought that domain for a lot of money,” she said. “Remember when you left, you charged a couple nights at a hotel to mom and dad’s credit card?”

“Yeah.”

“Well, they reported that for fraud, and they got sent a new credit card, so I ended up renewing the domain on my own card,” Quinn said. “And I never got around to switching it.”

“So you were the proud owner of shifter sex maniacs dot com?” George asked.

“Yup,” she said. “And now the proud owner is Triangulate, Inc., and I am twenty thousand dollars richer.”

George whistled.

“What do they want it for?”

“It’s a triad dating website,” she said. “They think it’s hilarious.”

He laughed.

“They hired me, too,” she said.

“So you’re staying in Cascadia?”

“For now,” she said, carefully. She could hear Julius and Hudson talking in their bedroom, Julius sounding slightly irritated.

“With your... boyfriends?”

Quinn laughed. George, despite being totally open-minded, had never dated a shifter and wasn’t totally familiar with their terminology.

“Yep,” she said. “With my boyfriends.”

Even though she could have lived on her own easily by now, Quinn had just never left the Victorian house. Before long, she blended into their routines, which now included careful sex. After all, her ribs weren’t entirely healed yet.

She heard a distinct voice coming from the bedroom.

“Why don’t you ever keep your cufflinks where you can find them?” Julius was asking, annoyed.

“We’re going to a wedding,” she told George. “If Hudson ever gets ready.”

“Aren’t you supposed to be the slow one?” George asked, teasing.

“I thought so too,” she said.

Finally, the bedroom door opened, and her boyfriends emerged.

“We’re already late,” Julius growled.
