the house. You should come here and talk to Lindsey. I think she’s upset with me. I told her how old we were, and I’m not sure she believes me.
    What would I say to her? Zak sounded panicky, and Jed had to smile. I don’t know what to say to women, you know that. Just bring her home and I’ll sit while you talk to her.
    You can’t just have sex with her without conversation. He said that he could try. No, you can’t. Besides, we made love up here and now she’s worried that you might be mad at us. She seems to think you’re not going to be happy that I made love to her without you.
    Why would I be mad at the two of you? Hell, if I was there, I’d take her too. Jed told him good idea . No. I’m not going to come there and talk to her. I don’t know what to say to her. Don’t do this to me, Jed. I’m not any good at this.
    Well, I’m leaving her here with the understanding that you’re coming for her. If you leave her up here, she’s going to be pissed off. Zak told him not to do it. It’s done.
    Zak was still screaming at him when he spoke to Lindsey. He told her that he was going to go back to the house, and that Zak wanted her to wait there for him. She seemed to be all right with that and he told her not to leave. He also told her about the house and the cruiser in Cox’s yard.
    “I won’t leave. I love it up here. I can see the world from here.” He kissed her again, holding her a few seconds longer before he moved down the hill. He was about halfway down when he saw Zak overhead, his great dragon blotting out the sky for several seconds. Waiting until he was sure that he was with Lindsey, Jed went home thinking about the man at the house. He was going to pay for his treatment of other women, and especially his woman.

Chapter 5
     
    Brandon had put another ad in the paper three days ago. He watched for it to come out and when it didn’t, he called down to the newspaper to find out what the hell was going on. They had him on hold for five minutes before someone came back on the line.
    “Mr. Cox? There’s a problem with your ad. I’m sorry. We have been trying to call you but you didn’t answer.” He tried to think if anyone had called, and remembered the half dozen private numbers that had come up on his caller ID. There were messages too, but he couldn’t retrieve them, not without the password. “Are you there?”
    “Yeah, I’m here. I have been having phone problems.” He could have told her that the phone belonged to one of the many dead women in the yard and hidden in the caves, but he didn’t think she’d like that all that much. “Your number, it comes up private. I tend not to answer those calls. Might be someone I don’t want to talk to.”
    “Oh, I can understand that. I have a few of those come up too. But to get back to your ad, there is no mention of your name and who to ask for. And so you know, if a number comes up that you don’t know, you might want to answer it. It might be someone looking for the position.” Her little laughter grated on his nerves. He hated twitter laughs. That’s what he called it when it sounded forced, like they’d twittered, not laughed. But he laughed with her, just to be polite. “What would you like for me to put down for that?”
    It took him several seconds to remember what she’d asked him about. “Brandon, just my first name. I don’t want any crackpots calling me for the job. So just my first name.”
    She told him it would be in the paper in two days. She even told him that it would run an extra few days at no charge since they’d not been able to put it in at the time they’d agreed upon. Now all he had to do was sit and wait.
    Brandon was still pissed about Lindsey. She’d been working out so well, and then she had to up and run off. He supposed that it was sort of his fault that she’d wanted to go. One of his rules was no sex until they were properly broke in. And she’d not been there long enough for that as yet.
    But
