Saying they had found the dead body was fine. Even humans could smell one that was that pungent.
“Okay, I’ll have Brett call you in a little bit,” Peter said.
“Make it a couple of hours.” Nate had every intention of making love to Kayla first and then napping with her.
“Yeah, sure, sorry about all this.”
“It’s not your fault that we found a dead body. Talk to you later, Peter.” Then Nate realized Kayla was already in the bathroom showering. He hurried for the bathroom and quickly slid his board shorts off and put them on the tub next to her wet bathing suit. He walked into the shower, pulling the glass door closed, and enveloped her soapy body in his arms.
“Is Peter sending someone to get rid of these reporters?” she asked, rubbing her soapy skin against his, his erection already growing with desire.
“Yeah, but Brett’s going to come and interview us.”
Kayla didn’t appear pleased with the notion.
“We’ll rehearse what we’re going to say, and it’ll be based on the truth. At least we weren’t runningin our wolf coats, and anyone could have smelled the dead body as a human, so we should be fine.”
“Okay, and then it can be exclusive to him and no one else will bother us.”
“Hopefully.”
They dried off and ended up in bed and began making love, so glad they hadn’t waited to mate any further, and then slept.
When they both woke, they dressed and checked to see if the reporters were gone, and they were. Before they gathered their gear to fish, Brett called. “Hey, is this a good time to for me to get that interview?”
“Yeah, sure. Come on out. We’re going fishing afterward.”
“That sounds like fun. I’ll be there soon. Peter said he sent CJ to get rid of the news reporters who were trespassing.”
“Good. We noticed they were gone, but I figured they would have needed some persuading.”
“CJ can be persuasive, that’s for sure,” Brett said.
After a quarter of an hour, Brett arrived in his truck with Jake, who was taking the pictures.
Nate explained how they had smelled the dead body and then had swum across the river to locate the victim after Kayla called the sheriff’s department.
“Okay, we know we can’t give any details on the crime scene. But what were you both thinking when you swam across the river?” Brett asked.
“That if the person who had died wasn’t alone and that someone else who might have been with him had been injured, we might save him or her. We didn’t have any idea what could have happened. But it wasn’t to be the case,” Nate said.
“What about the situation with you rescuing the men at the Silver Falls?” Brett asked.
“I didn’t think this news story would be about that,” Nate said.
“Brett hadn’t planned on it being any more than the case of the murdered man. Before we got here,” Jake said, “we heard the news about the waterfall incident on TV though.”
“No,” Kayla said.
“Yep,” Brett said. “The men you rescued told the news about it as soon as they could, once they learned you had found the dead man. I think they wanted to be part of all the news, and they took this opportunity to go to the press.”
Nate shook his head.
“Hey, it makes for great press,” Brett said. “Our own hero and heroine, and you were both human the whole time. Thankfully, they didn’t mention the diamond necklace. Peter said Eric read them the riot act and said if they mentioned anything about the jewelry, whoever stole it might want to eliminate them. So that must have convinced them not to speak of it.”
“That’s good,” Kayla said, “or we could find abunch of treasure seekers out here, along with the jewelry store robbers.”
“Exactly,” CJ said.
