Chapter 73

“I have been looking forward to this all day,” he breathed.

“How did the meeting go? Was it terrible?”

“It could have been worse. He didn’t show up. He just sent his lawyers, like all this was some routine investigation and totally beneath him.” Which was what Grady should have expected if he hadn’t been so tired and rattled. “We can go home tomorrow. I’ve got our flights already.”

“I’m glad it’s not as bad as it could have been.” Colin nuzzled closer, burying his face against Grady’s neck. “We haven’t really had a chance to talk about…how you’re feeling about your father. We can, if you want. Or we don’t have to.”

Did he want to talk about it? Not really. The emotions weren’t happy ones, and he was too tired to put a filter on. The invitation, however, surprised him, mostly because he’d never really known anyone who would’ve offered before. It was even more reason to love this man. Not that he needed more.
