“You’re going to be a teacher?”
“Yes.” She grinned.
Sebastian had the feeling that she was laughing at him again for stating the obvious.
“I am going to be the new science teacher at Angel’s Creek High School,” she said.
If I had more teachers that looked like her in class, I might have paid more attention, he thought.
“What have you been up to?” she asked.
“I have an investigative and security company,” he said. “We provide cyber security, bodyguards, alarm systems, and those types of services.” He didn’t tell her that they also did the occasional black ops, rescue missions, or reconnaissance missions.
“Sounds interesting,” she said.
They carried the last box into the house and he said, “I have to go into the office for a while. You know where to find me if you need anything.”
“Thank you,” she said.
Her smile made his heart skip a beat and he told himself, Knock it off.
He changed into a clean pair of jeans and pulled on a polo shirt, which was his nod to business attire. As soon as Sebastian sat down at his desk, his front desk man, who was also a dragon shifter and one of his best field agents, announced “Jude Henderson is here to see you.”
“Thanks, Julian. Send him in.”
Sebastian rose to shake the man’s hand and motioned for him to sit in the chair in front of his desk.
“Good to see you again, Sebastian. What did you find out?”
The company had been hired to do a cybersecurity scan for Jude to see if there were any dangers of someone hacking into his system and stealing trade secrets. Jude had a pharmaceutical company in Santa Fe.
“We discovered that you have some serious issues,” Sebastian said. “Not only do you have several holes in your system overall, but someone has been stealing from you.”
“What? There’s no way,” Jude exclaimed. “Who? How?”
“Let me start with the first part. The person in charge of your IT has not been regularly updating your security system. It is important because every update has codes that will block the latest malware, ransomware, and viruses. Most of the time, when companies report a data breach of their clients’ information it is because they aren’t doing regular updates. At this point, a second grader with a basic knowledge of coding could break into your systems.”
“What do I do?” the man asked, his panicked voice high-pitched.
“Fire your IT person and get someone else who is competent. Right now, until you find that person, I will update your system if you want, part of the price you already paid me,” Sebastian said.
“Please do. As soon as possible. We have cancer research and so many other helpful drugs we are researching. We don’t want our competition getting ahold of them.”
Sebastian passed Jude a form. “This is you giving us permission to do the updates.”
Jude read the document carefully and grinned. “No fine print?”
“There is. It’s in white ink in two font so you can’t see it that promises us fifty-one percent of your profits,” Sebastian teased. “I’m kidding. There is nothing. All I’m going to do is hit a button and update your system.”
Jude signed it and handed it over. “If it was anyone else, I would believe that tale about tiny white font. Your reputation is so great that you have people in high places from all over the world singing your praise.”
“I appreciate that,” Sebastian said, hitting a button. “It’s updating now. It’ll take several hours. I wouldn’t waste time getting you a new person to take care of your security.”
“I will start looking first thing in the morning,” he said, steepling his fingers. “Who is stealing from me and how?”
“Serena Pierce and Mia Burton,” Sebastian said, opening a folder sitting on his desk next to his computer.
“My accountants.”
