HIS TO CONQUER
I couldn’t do anything, since nothing belonged to me anymore.
Meanwhile, I was living a surprisingly peaceful life in Peter's apartment out of town. It was a world away from the sterile corporate environment I was used to. Peter, the man I had known only as my funny, ever observant assistant revealed himself to be a surprisingly warm and gentle soul. He lived alone with his three mischievous cats being his only companions. And he could cook. Seriously, the man could cook. Every evening, he would whip up culinary masterpieces, a far cry from the sad and depressing takeout dinners I'd been surviving on since my mother’s passing.
