Chapter 33
New Revelations
JACE POV
I had to get away from her. Ella is my drug, the kind that burns through your whole body when you’re needing another fix. I had just had her, and already I was needing to be inside of her again, but I shouldn’t have taken her this last time because she was still healing from the first time; she’s so pretty when she begs, though. I had wanted to stay and hold her for a while, but my willpower is non-existent when it comes to my Ella addiction, and so I left.
I’m just walking into my house when I get a text from Jude telling me that he and Beth had just picked up their new toy. According to my friend, when I had talked to him earlier, his sub/girlfriend was over the moon with excitement when he told her about their plans for the night. She’s been looking for something new that they could both use, and so she climbed on board, fully knowing what would be at stake, and what they would be doing is a felonyifthey were found out. I know Jude, though, he’s a pro at any job he does.
I grin and reply back, telling him to call if any issues arise. If I know Jude as well as I think I do, I know Madison is in good hands, regardless of whether or not she deserves it. All I want is information, and I know Jude will get it out of her. You see, Jude has a way when it comes to pleasing women. He likes to work them up and tease them until they are at their breaking point. If there ends up being sex involved tonight, I can guarantee that Madison will be a very willing participant. Jude can find the biggest prude on earth and by the time he is done with them, they will be begging for him to fuck them like a greedy whore.
I know Ethan had told me to inform him of issues as they arise and for me to stay out of trouble, but as long as there are threats to Ella, I will have them taken care of. Everything that has happened to that girl has been all my fault and I will take responsibility for all of my actions. Of course, I will try not to get caught when I have to do the shady shit, I will still do it regardless, because I owe Ella a lot.
Speaking of Ethan, when I had met with him earlier, it was to go over everything that I had seen and heard the night of the attack. I wasn’t there, so I can’t testify that it was for sure Toby, Brandon, Mason, and Kaylee. I can only say what Ella had repeated to me and even then, that isn’t a sure thing in getting them convicted. Ethan had also asked me about my relationship with Ella. I was completely honest with him when I told him that I was in love with his daughter, but that was all I was going to say about the matter until I’ve talked to Ella. I know that I keep telling her that she’s mine, and I will always consider her as mine, but we haven’t really discussed what we will say to our friends and family, and that is one of the topics that we need to talk about when she comes over for lunch.
My mom is waiting up for me at the island in the kitchen when I come in to grab me a water before going to my room, “Jace, we need to talk.” She has her stern mom voice in place, but I can see concern in her facial expression.
“What is it mom?” My own voice is now laced with concern, thinking something bad has happened.
“What have you been up to, Jace? Are you in some kind of trouble?” I’m taken aback by her questions.
“Why would you think that I’m in some kind of trouble?”
She hesitates for just a moment, “The school called me at work, and told me that you haven’t been there for the last two days,” she glances down as she stirs her chamomile tea that she drinks every night before bed, “When you do go to school, you go straight to work and come back late at night. We don’t even know where you work, Jace!” Her eyes shine bright with unshed tears, and it tears me up to see her upset, so I go over and wrap my arms around her.
“I’m perfectly fine, Mom, and no, I’m not in any kind of trouble, I promise.” I kiss the top of her head.
“Why are you not going to class? You’re supposed to graduate in just under two months!” She brings her head back to look up at me.
I sigh, not really wanting to tell her because I know her reaction, but I don’t like directly lying to my parents. Keeping things from them is one thing, but the moment they ask, I won’t lie, “I wanted to spend time with Ella while she is in town. I stayed home the first day, so I could surprise her when she got home from the airport, and then we had lunch today, well now, yesterday and hung out before I had to go to work.”
I can already see the grin forming on my mother’s face at the mention of me and Ella hanging out. For as long as I can remember, both of our mothers have been wanting us together. They never really interfered, but we both have heard them talking to one another about what it would be like if we ended up together and so forth. Sometimes I wonder if that is why my feelings had changed for my best friend, but then I look at her and I know that our mothers had nothing to do with my feelings for Ella.
“Awe, honey, why didn’t you say something? I could have just called you in sick.” She reaches up to push a piece of my hair off of my forehead.
“Mom, I’m almost nineteen. I don’t need my mom calling me in sick, and besides, why are they calling you when you already signed the stupid paper giving me permission to call in myself since I’m of age?” I let her go and grab my bottle of water from where I had left it on the counter.
“I don’t know, honey. Maybe because you didn’t call yourself in, so they thought you were incapacitated…who knows.” She shrugs and takes a sip of her tea, “What about your job? Are you ever going to tell me where you work?”
“Seriously, Mom? Do I really have to share everything with my parents?” I muse and lift my water for a drink.
“Oh my God, are you a male stripper, Jace?!” I choke on my water and go into a coughing fit. Mom comes over and rubs my back, “I won’t judge you, honey, but there are other jobs out there. You don’t have to get naked for horny cougars.”
I hold my hand up for her to stop talking. My coughing fit has changed, and I am now silently laughing at the words coming out of my mother’s mouth.
“What? I am your mother, Jace, and I’m sorry that I don’t want other women my age, who might have even been classmates of mine, to sit there, shoving money down my son’s thong!” If you could only see my mother’s expression…
“Mom, stop,” I’m laughing my ass off at this point, “You don’t have to worry about your classmates talking about the color of my thongs at your next class reunion! I’m not a stripper!”
She grabs her chest, “Oh, thank God!”
“I mean,” I flex my bicep, “I’ve definitely got the body for it…”
“Jace!”
Chuckling, I hug my mom once more, “I’m kidding, Mother.”
“Well, what else am I supposed to think when you are secretive about your work and then there are the deposits that you make into your bank account…”
