While he whipped up scrambled eggs, minus butter or bacon on the side, he considered all his options.
God, how do I keep her safe? How do I stop this contract out on her?
First thing he should do starting tomorrow was give her a few wilderness survival pointers, in case she really had to disappear on her own. In case the worst happened and Cooper was taken out. He couldn’t discount that possibility.
Then there was the fact that even if that bad guy was dead, another would come after her. The next attempt on her life might be the last if they succeeded. The new guy might not be interested in playing first.
So Cooper needed to keep her good and hidden.
And he needed to warn the others around him, his family and employees, to keep an eye out for anyone who acted suspicious.
He finished the eggs and dumped them on a plate and set it with a fork on the small table. Poured a glass of water. Grabbed the salt-and-pepper shaker and searched for a paper towel. A napkin. Something to show her he was civilized.
The fixings were slim around here. If he were looking to impress her, he was sure to fail. Good thing he wasn’t looking.
A knock came at his door.
That would be either Deputy Callahan or...
Someone to kill Hadley.
