his head. To be seventeen again, he wouldn’t do it. All the extra hormones racing along in their bodies then add to that having a mate. It had to suck. He imagined the poor kid was probably rubbing one off every hour on the hour. Josef remembered those days, and he didn’t even have a mate.

Josef unlocked the office door and stepped inside. Devon had a job in Silver Creek he had to finish up on and in his absence asked Josef to interview the guy. If he seemed on the up-and-up Josef had permission to hire him. Summer was their busy time. Everyone wanted to do additions to their homes, and new home buyers were buying land and wanting houses built. Then they had some restoration jobs of older homes and buildings around town they were working on. Summer brought longer days and more work than they could possibly finish in a timely manner. They always hired on extra help for the summer months. Carsten and Son’s had been around for close to thirty years. Everyone in town knew Carsten senior and had no problems giving their business to him and Devon. They also gave awesome recommendations, hence all the new work they’d been getting.

Josef enjoyed his job. He didn’t have to spend countless hours tied down to a desk. Some days required that, but more often than not he had the freedom to go to the jobsites and help out when office life got to be too much. He and Devon helped each other out, and when one needed a break the other picked up the slack. But lately he’d been doing more picking up than Devon.

A loud knock on the outer door pulled Josef from his grumbling thoughts. He hated to be jealous of his friends, but damn it, he wanted what Devon and Viktor had so badly.

Pushing up from his chair, he walked around his desk then out toward the front door. The man coming for the interview must have arrived. Josef wondered why the guy didn’t just walk in. Then he wondered if he locked it.

The man knocked again, and Josef jogged the rest of the way. He turned the knob and opened the door. “Come…” His voice trailed off when he met the greenest eyes he’d ever seen staring back at him. He moved his jaw up and down but couldn’t make it work. He was speechless, struck stupid by how cute this potential employee was.

The man gave him a curious look but still held out his hand. “Hello, I’m Cole Weathers. I’m here to apply for the opening.”

“Yes.” Josef finally found his voice. “Please come on in.” He held the door open and took a step back giving Cole room to come inside.

“Sorry I’m late, but my truck stalled, and I had to jack with it to get her running again.” Cole’s chuckle sounded a little nervous.

Josef looked over Cole’s shoulder toward the truck he was referring to. He had to agree the poor jalopy had seen better days. “No worries.”

He led Cole to his office. Cole took a seat in the chair in front of his desk. Josef walked back to his chair and started to shuffle through a stack of papers. Devon had given him Cole’s resume yesterday, but he never even looked at it. He thought he’d just wing it, but now sitting face-to-face with the little cutie, he desperately wanted that sheet of paper to help take his mind off of Cole and his hotness.

“Aha.” Josef held up the file. “I found it.” Cole’s brow furrowed, and he rushed to explain. “Sorry, I don’t usually handle the hiring. That’s Devon’s job, but he’s out on a jobsite and asked me to cover for him today.”

“And you are?” Cole asked.

“Oh shit!” he said louder than he intended to. “I’m Josef, Josef Bayer.” He leaned across the desk to offer his hand to Cole.

“Hi, Josef.” Cole shook his hand. “Nice to meet you.” He smiled so brightly Josef almost fell onto his desk.

What felt like a small electric shock sparked against his hand when he touched Cole’s. He sniffed the air but didn’t smell anything. Scent was a telltale sign of finding one’s mate, but he didn’t smell anything unusual. That didn’t mean Cole’s smell wasn’t pleasant. No it was quite nice, soap and a hint of motor oil. Josef assumed that had to be from working on his truck.

“So,” Cole said when Josef sat there staring for too long.

“Oh, right.” He skimmed down Cole’s resume and looked back up at him. “This is your first job?” Having experience wasn’t a must, but it helped.

“Yes. I was taking classes at Hemsworth but…” Josef watched as Cole chewed on his lower lip making the plump flesh turn a bright red.

“But what?” he asked but kept his gaze transfixed on Cole’s lips.

Cole snorted. “I had a falling out with my dad, and he pulled the card that if I wasn’t living under his roof he wasn’t going to pay for my college.” Cole shrugged his shoulders. “So I decided to get a job and pay for it myself. I have to take a few semesters off and save up so I can reapply later.”

Josef didn’t know the reason for the family falling out, but he instantly took Cole’s side and wanted to punch his father in the mouth. Cole looked young. His family should be supporting him, not making him resort to having to do back-breaking work.

“I’m sorry to hear that.” His tone sounded bitter to his own ears, and he hoped Cole didn’t pick up on his hostility toward a man he had never even met before.

“It’s not a big deal.” Cole smiled. “So do I
