11 Chapter 11

* * * *

Kate lived in Richmond’s West End, in the home she and Remy had shared together. She agreed to shoulder the mortgage on her own as part of the divorce settlement, which suited him just fine. The apartment he had now had plenty of room, even after Lane began staying over. Plus, it cut his daily commute by a good twenty minutes. With Lane in his life, Remy now spent that extra time snuggling up to his lover in bed, or getting fresh in the shower, or fooling around on the couch…

Truth be told, if he wasn’t his own boss, he’d probably be fired. Most days, it was a chore to part from his lover. Lane’s office opened a half hour after Remy’s, so he was almost always late. It even became a bit of a joke among his staff, who probably abused the fact that he didn’t come in at eight on the dot every morning. But what could he say? He didn’t follow his own rules himself.
