Mike returned with an armful of laundry. “Do you think she’ll like staying here?” Mike asked.
“It’s a lot better than the cold cabin. However, for her to be happy in Wildwood, we need to find her a job.”
“You’re the one with the connections. What about Will? I imagine with the high season upon us, he could use more waitresses.”
His cousin owned a bar, but would Cassidy like doing that? “If Doug comes to town, he’ll probably stop in there for a drink or a meal. If he spotted her, that would be bad.”
Mike placed the laundry in the washing machine, poured in the soap, and turned it on. “You’re right. How about if she worked for Brandon?”
“He sells cars. While people might come to ogle her, how much does she know about the different vehicles?”
“You’re making this hard.” Mike snapped his fingers. “I’ve got it. Brittany. Your cousin sells real estate. I doubt she’d ever run into Doug.”
“As a realtor, Cassidy would have to understand contracts and be knowledgeable about the area. I’m not sure she qualifies.”
Mike faced him. “Then you come up with a solution.”
“I don’t have one. Yet. I would suggest she work for my dad, but if Doug comes looking for her, he’d either pay Mason to locate her or ask at the sheriff’s office.”
“Your Uncle Garth owns a mining company. Maybe there is something she could do there.”
“Possibly,” Zach said. “Let’s see what she’d like to do first. Whatever it is, it shouldn’t be in the public eye .”
Mike grinned. “I've got it. She could work for Alex and Liam.”
“Doing what?” Zach asked.
“I bet they could use someone to schedule their appointments and maybe help with advertising.”
“Advertising? As in take an ad out in the paper saying that Liam and Alex train werewolves?”
“No, you dork. She’d promote their company as an elite training camp. If humans show up, that’s okay. Alex and Liam separated them before when they worked in Canada.”
“True. Let’s finish cleaning and then head on over to Mom’s. Cassidy needs to have a say in this.”
“Sure.”
Zach tackled the kitchen while Mike claimed he could clean a bathroom better than anyone. After Zach inspected the apartment and found it to be presentable, Mike packed up a few things that he’d need.
Once the sheets dried and were returned to the bed, Zach and Mike went over to Zach’s house to drop off Mike’s truck and his gear. Zach then drove them both over to his mom’s place.
“How about calling Mason and explaining that Cassidy needs to contact her friend without fear of having her location discovered?” Zach asked Mike. “Put him on speaker.”
“Can do.”
The conversation was a short one mostly because Dad had already given Mason the lowdown on this Doug Kitchener guy.
“Where is she now?” Mason asked.
“At your parents’ house,” Mike said. “We’re heading over there now.”
“I’ll stop over shortly.”
“Thanks, Mason,” Zach said a second before Mike disconnected.
“I have an idea. Do you think Cassidy would be upset if I spent the night at the apartment in my wolf form—for security purposes only, of course?”
Zach almost swerved off the road he was laughing so hard. “Who are you, and what have you done with Mike the ladies’ man?”
