Page 236 of The Sleep With Your Enemy's Sister Situation

Off to crash with her brother and think about everything that had happened.

It didn’t help matters that my face throbbed from the fight with Remi.

A fight that had been long overdue.

Regret?

Zero.

The fact that Fiona’s heart broke?

Wow, did I feel like shit over that.

This coming from the guy who once woke a woman up at six in the morning and told her there was a gas leak in the building and she needed to go but I needed to stay to meet the fire department and I’d call her later.

Just to get her to leave.

I never called her.

I never saw her again.

I’m such an asshole…

I called it quits on sleep, sat up on the couch, and turned on the television.

It was late morning and every sports channel still played highlights of the fight between Remi and me.

Guys in suits who had never laced up a hockey skate in their lives, giving their opinions.

“Markey, I’m told this is a team issue that goes back years. Perhaps something to do with contracts and money.”

“Benny, the rumor around the locker rooms is that these two were fighting over a woman!”

“Let me just say this clearly. So everyone out there can hear. And if these two… idiots… no, that’s right. I’m sticking with this. They’re idiots! And if these two idiots are listening… you’re a disgrace. Fighting over a woman? Money? Come on, that’s insane. There are plenty of women! There’s plenty of money!”

Cut to a commercial with former athletes who couldn’t get boners and needed pills.

I shut the television off.

I skipped making coffee and went right for the booze instead.

One sip of whisky and my door sounded like it was about to explode inward.

The hardest knocking I ever heard in my life.

“Open the door, Riff!”

I threw my head back and laughed.

Remi was here.

I openedthe door and he came forward, pushing his way in like the place was on fire and he wanted to save me.

I stepped back. “Yeah, come on in, man. Sorry I didn’t clean the place up a little. Didn’t know I was having company. Want a drink?”

“Where is she?” Remi asked, looking at me with pure hatred.

“Who?”
