Marrying the Wrong Twin: A Billionaire Marriage Mistake Romance (Baby Fever Book 4)
Page 15
I couldn’t suppress the scream as he filled me with more intensity than I’d ever been taken in my life.
My breaths couldn’t be caught as his fingers closed into my hips, guiding me higher against his washboard abs, his sack spanking me against my swollen button as I struggled to keep myself on my shaking arms.
But he didn’t want me on all fours and his fingers swept into my hair, twisting my chestnut waves into a knot as he pressed me into the covers.
I let my arms fall, inhaling the material but not noticing the scent of lilacs in the sheets.
All I was aware of was the feeling of Jude’s massive cock filling me harder and faster, slipping and sliding. That second orgasm was nigh and I couldn’t take it for another second.
“Fuck!” I bellowed, clenching my cheeks against his thrusting shaft, pushing myself so that I felt he had become a part of me, our sweating, shaking bodies becoming one.
He grunted and his muscled form tensed. In seconds, his hot seed was pouring into me like I was a glass for his pitcher of passion.
Again, I squeezed against him, not wanting to lose a second of his release and he held fast to me as his moans lessened and his body slowly relaxed against me.
An unexpected shiver coursed through me and another round of gooseflesh covered me but all the tenseness in me dissipated into a puddle and evaporated from the room as if it had never been there.
“Wow,” Jude laughed, falling out of me to lie at my side, his emerald eyes fixated on the ceiling. “That was fun.”
I snickered at his characterization.
I bet he said that to all the girls.
“Yeah,” I replied. “It was all right.”
He turned his head to look at me, his eyes still bright with desire, and he leaned forward to pressed a gentle kiss to my lips.
I hadn’t been expecting it.
Honestly, I didn’t expect to hook up with some stranger at a party my best friend had thrown in my honor. A stranger whom I knew Elsa and the others didn’t even want there.
A flash of guilt hit my stomach and I pulled away, sitting up to straighten myself out. This was wrong. I was already falling back into my old patterns, being a rebel without a cause. Was I acting out for shock value or a reaction or…what? Attention?
Shit, what have I done?
I reasoned that a one-night stand was not going to make or break me but I wondered if I hadn’t just pursued it because of Jude’s kind words about my singing.
It didn’t matter; it wasn’t going to happen again. It was a one-off.
“What’s wrong?” he asked, sounding hurt that I was already on my feet. I ran a hand through my tresses and offered him a tight smile.
“Nothing,” I lied. “But we should get back to the party before they dig the pitchforks out of the cabana.”
Jude snorted and ambled to his feet also, snatching his pants off the floor.
“Oh well, I should probably get the fuck out of here before that stake gets warmed up. I’m sure Elsa’s been adding logs to the fire since she first saw me here.”
We grinned at one another.
“Well…maybe I’ll see you around town,” I told him, unsure of what else to say.
He grabbed my hand before I could reach the door handles and spun me back as if we were in the middle of a salsa dance.
I laughed as he brought his face inches to mine, a lazy smile forming on his face.
“You’ll be seeing me around,” he agreed, his eyes boring into mine. I couldn’t believe that he was still giving me shivers. Maybe it was going to take another round before I got him out of my system.
“Actually, there’s an open mic in Alexandria on Thursday nights. You should come. With me.” he offered.
I laughed again.
“Yeah, I don’t know about that,” I replied, gently and reluctantly removing my arm from his grasp. Truthfully, I could feel the heat building in my crotch again and I worried if I didn’t move then, we were definitely going to get caught because I was ready to go for another round.
Why did that excite me more?
“The place is called JoJo’s,” he continued as if I hadn’t refused. “I can pick you up if you want.”
I smirked and opened the door to the bedroom. Instantly my smile faded as Elsa glared at us like a pissed off rattlesnake.
It was me who recoiled.
“Really?” she barked but she was talking to Jude, not me. “You really went there after our talk?”
Oh shit. What talk?
Jude slipped past us, a bemused expression on his face but I could still smell the telltale scent of sex in the air.
There will be no lying my way out of this one, I thought, slightly embarrassed at being caught. I wasn’t sure which was more humiliating; being caught having sex in her house or who I had been having sex with.
I guess both had a part to play in my shame.
“I think this is my cue to leave,” he quipped lightly, bowing formally and sarcastically as he ducked out.
Elsa spun to look at me.
“Please tell me you didn’t do what I think you did,” she sighed, disappointment clouding her blue eyes.
“What do you mean?” I asked innocently, starting back toward the party, my cheeks flushed as she followed me.
“Gen, you’re a grown-ass woman and I’m the last person to tell you what to do – even if you are under my roof.”
I bristled at the not-so-subtle reminder but I held my tongue. It wasn’t a power play. It was just Elsa being Elsa.
“But Jude is bad news,” Elsa insisted, joining my side. “I’m not blowing hot air. You can ask anyone.”
“What’s so bad about him? He’s had a few lovers? Who hasn’t?”
I eyed the blonde perfectionist, trying to remember how many men she’d been with before marrying Jake and suddenly I felt like a whore.
Most of us have had a few lovers. No one else in the world is as pure as Elsa.
Curiosity had gotten the better of me. It had to be more than the fact he was just a playboy. We had known our fair share of Lotharios and I’d never seen Elsa so hell-bent on keeping me away from a man in my life.
“He’s a nobody,” she grumbled. “He has no ambition, no drive. He’s what you left here to escape and he’ll just suck you back in. I could kill Jake for letting him stay.”
Inexplicably, I felt a shock of defensiveness.
“That’s hardly a fair thing to say, Else. Everyone finds their groove at different times. Just because we happened to get what we wanted early, doesn’t mean he’s a lost cause.”
She sighed and stopped walking.
“I know you’re having second thoughts about your career and everything right now, Gen, but don’t get dragged into Jude LaCroix’s bullshit. He has a girlfriend he’s been stringing along for years, refusing to commit. He sits around and strums his guitar because it gets all the local girls hot for him but he’s a bum. Trust me. I’ve known him for years.”
She stared at me, her face softening.
“Like I said, I know you’re a grown woman but I also know you’re vulnerable – ”
“I am not vulnerable,” I snapped. “I’ve always taken care of myself and one muscle-laden player is not going to change that. Have a little faith in me.”
She chuckled mirthlessly.
“I have all the faith in you,” she replied shortly. “It’s Jude whom I have absolutely none.”
“God, you are such a mother. Save this protectiveness for Cath and don’t worry about me.”
She didn’t respond but her lips were pursed so finely, I almost couldn’t see them.
As we returned to the party, I realized I was bothered what she’d said for more than one reason.
Had I just slept with a guy who has a girlfriend?
The idea made me sick to my stomach, given the fact that my daddy had been unable to keep it in his pants while married to my mama.
I had always vowed never to be the “other woman.”

I swallowed the sick twisting in my gut.
If what Elsa was saying was true, I definitely had to stay away from Jude. But why did I feel like it was going to be so much harder than I was letting on?
