“If you report it as an incident, it’ll get looked at,” Ailsa said. “I personally can’t do anything. I strongly recommend one of you does it now. After all, the security camera was damaged, wasn’t it?” She stared at Jeff, who frowned. “Wasn’t it?”

Alex poked Jeff. “Cracked at the very least, I’d think. Wouldn’t you say so, Jeff?” Alex asked pointedly. “It has something thrown at it, and I’m sure if you cleaned it, you’d see the damage.”

Mimi cleared her throat. Seven sets of male eyes were turned on her. “It’s had the wires almost pulled out.”

Ailsa sniggered and put her hand over her mouth.

“And you know that how?”

God almighty, if that’s his Dom voice, shoot me now. I refuse to dissolve into a puddle of drool.

“We, er, looked”—she felt every male eye boring into her—“Sirs.”

“You did?” Alex asked, once he realized it had unanimously been decided she was definitely his responsibility. “When?”

Mimi looked toward Jess who shrugged. “Um, well…”

“When I asked her to,” Kath said clearly. “Theresa said how good she was with electronics—Mimi, I mean, not Theresa—so we went for a shoofty.”

“You went outside to look around?” Jeff roared. “After the camera was tampered with?”

Mimi flinched but Kath wasn’t one whit fazed by his shout.

“Don’t be daft. We’re subs, not stupid.”

“So you say. I reckon the jury’s out on that. You’re nuts. What if there was someone around?” he asked

Kath patted his arm. “Calm down. Of course we didn’t go then. We’re not mad.”

“Hmm, that’s debateable.” Jeff stopped speaking and glared. “What do you mean not then?”

“Seriously, Sir, stop mumping. None of us would do anything dangerous. Well, not without telling you first. Nope, we went while you were all chatting, before all hell broke loose. If we had gone a bit later, we might have seen something.” She sounded regretful.

“But how did you know it was dodgy?”

Kath went red

“Ah well, we’ve sort of sorted a monitor in our room.” She looked at the floor. “I think my milk’s come in. I best go and express.”

“Tough. You can wait. Who did the sort of sorting and why?”

“Me,” Shane said, “ages ago. And well, because we were worried about what was going on. Forewarned is forearmed and all that. We want to be able to back you up and not be a liability. But it was a bit naff and getting worse. When we were looking at it tonight, I said it wasn’t working properly. Mimi agreed it was fuzzy and unfocussed and sorted it out.”

“Indeed.”

Jeff glared at Mimi, who flinched but stood her ground. How dare he moan when she was only helping her new-found friends?

“Indeed.” She glared back and ignored the smothered sniggers she could hear. “Your security is crap.”

“You think so?” Jeff’s voice was almost enough to make her kneel and do—what was it? Assume the position?

Almost.

“I know so. However, don’t worry. I won’t mention it again, but I am going to say that the wires had been loosened so they’d fall out without much help.
