Chapter Fifteen
A week later and Rex was confident he was getting the hang of having a mate. He’d finally gotten all his stuff moved from the house he shared with Tony into Devyn’s lovely home. Between the two of them, he and Devyn worked out a loose routine where Rex would spend the morning with his mate at his shop, before heading into the bar. Devyn would join him later to share an evening meal and then they’d either hang out at the bar with Tony and Gregor, or go home and get hot and sweaty under the sheets, or on the couch, or wherever else Rex thought Devyn could perch his cute behind so he could rock his world.
A discrete call to the police station revealed no one was looking for him in relation to Jake, so that was a plus. Devyn had even shared the contact details of his accountant, so Rex didn’t have to fluff about with those wretched tax returns. Gregor and Rex came to a mutual understanding that anything concerning Devyn was Rex’s responsibility from now on, and while Rex wasn’t sure just how well that was going to work if a crisis hit, Rex was taking Gregor at his word for now. Tony was as happy as a pig in shit with his big bear.
So, the amount of tension he saw on Tony’s face as Rex stepped into the bar on a bright and sunny Monday morning didn’t make sense, neither did the fact Gregor was nowhere in sight. Rex instantly went on alert. “What’s going on?” He asked, striding to the counter. The place was quiet. Most of their regulars would still be working, although there were a few men in work boots playing a game of pool in the corner.
“You’ve got a visitor in your office,” Tony muttered, glancing down the hallway to where the office was.
“Yeah, and? Where’s your bear?”
“He’s gone back to Devyn’s shop. He said Devyn would need him. I understand he raised Devyn since he was a baby, but….” Tony’s voice caught.
“You needed him here with you. I understand, bro. I’m not keen on these afternoons without my mate either.” Rex patted the counter. “Let me deal with this visitor and then I’ll phone Devyn and they can both come back here, okay?”
“No!” Tony shook his head. Rex was stunned. He’d never seen his normally unflappable brother so upset. “Devyn can’t come around here. Not yet.”
“What the fuck?” Rex didn’t need this shit from his own brother no less. “Are you telling me my own mate can’t come….”
“Bovis is waiting for you.” Tony pointed down the hallway.
“Bovis?” Rex froze. “Father’s second? That Bovis?”
Tony nodded, and then leaned over the counter. “He didn’t say what he wanted but he was real pissed to find out you weren’t here. He’s been waiting for over an hour. I had to let him in the office when he started saying things like the stench of humans offended him.”
“Yeah, well he’s got no right being here at all.
