Chapter Six

Orlando woke the next morning feeling better than he had in weeks. The main influence on his state of mind was undoubtedly the pleasant hour he and Jonty had spent together in the latter’s bedroom before they actually retired for the night. Having a two bedroom suite easily facilitated such matters and so long as they slept apart for long enough that both beds had been clearly used for their proper purpose all would be well. There’d been an added frisson of doing his duty, as they habitually referred to having sex, in Oxford itself, partly because it somehow helped to lay the old demons of lack of confidence and isolation from his peers.

He’d been finding this case surprisingly unsettling and not just old college angle. Memories of his father had come flooding back when they’d spoken of Denison possibly committing suicide or maybe being mentally ill. To share intimacy with Jonty had been to gain comfort, especially as their coupling had been tender and slow, a celebration not just of their love but their concern for and support of one another. A married couple in all but name.

Now he could face the new day as something more like his normal, professional self.
