The sun was fading when I pulled up. It had been much easier to find this time. I parked a bit down the street, just in case someone recognized my car, and I hid in a patch of trees close to the gate. Then I waited.

A few fishermen and bikers left the park before the gate closed. Antonio and Kyle were on the closing shift. I couldn’t help but hope to get a glimpse of Antonio when he locked the gate. Even if he was a pig, he was as hot as bacon straight from the griddle.

Thankfully the sight of a big black truck and a uniformed figure distracted my thoughts. A little piece of me was disappointed that Kyle was closing the gates for the night. But at least it kept me from thinking of one of my married co-workers as a delicious piece of meat.

“You have to stay away from her. She’s just going to get you into trouble,” Kyle said into his cell phone. I leaned forward. Who was going to get who into trouble? “Especially if she gets hired on full-time. Don’t give her any leverage over you.”

There was no way I was going to get in between a man and his wife, no matter how much he said they were on the outs. Plus, he was talking about Nikki anyway. She and Antonio had been awfully flirty in the training room.

I sighed and glanced at my watch. 8:45. Where was Ronnie’s wife? My eyes were finding it hard to focus in the dimming light, and I had a cramp forming in my left butt cheek from squatting so long.

When my watch read 9:00, I stood and stretched my legs. Had I really thought this was a good idea? Someone was probably just messing with me. It wasn’t like I was an investigator.

The trek back to my car was harder than expected now that the dark had settled in and my butt was in full-on cramp mode. Once inside, I threw my cell phone onto the passenger seat and put the key in the ignition. If I hurried, I
