Chapter 150

Book 3 - Ch. 150: Lies & Betrayal

JUDE POV

I didn’t want to believe what I was looking at, but the moment I saw her face to face, I knew it was true; I knew that it was

more than what I was hoping it was. Hell, I’m not even sure what I was hoping for, but I had wanted to give her the

benefit of the doubt because I never would have thought that Beth would have deceived me like this.

We have always been very open with each other; it’s been our understanding from the very beginning, that as long as it

was kink related it was fine, but this, her being with her boss this way, especially knowing my feelings about the prick, is

something totally different. So, now that I am face to face with her, I only have two questions for her.

“How long, Beth?”

She climbs off her boss’s lap and moves a few steps away, “Jude, please understand...”

The use of my name tells me all I need to know, but I continue, “ How fucking long, Beth?”

I watch as her face flushes like it always does when she knows that she’s done wrong, “About a month.” She whispers.

“What was that, speak up so I can fucking hear you! ” I heard; I just want to hear her say it again.

She looks me straight in the eye through the video, “It’s been about a month now.”

I want to hit something, preferably the fucking son of a bitch that’s been fucking my woman! Regardless of what’s

transpiring, though, I still love Beth and I can’t hurt her like that. Before I can ask my second question, she speaks up

again, this time with a little more backbone.

“Did you really think we could carry on the way we have been for the rest of our lives? Sure, it’s fun, but I didn’t think I

was signing myself up for a lifetime of servitude, Jude.”

Her words sting. She’s never once brought any of this up to me; never spoke of her concerns or her life

fucking dreams to me, “You knew what I was, and we discussed it in the very beginning. I gave you a

chance to back out and you forged on, with me. You never once came to me about wanting to change

anything until the other day, and now you’re telling me that you have been fucking that prick for a whole

month behind my back?”

I’m sorry, Jude...”

“Sorry doesn’t cut it, Beth. I’ve loved you with everything and now I see it was for nothing. Get your

fucking pet and be out of my fucking house before I return.” “You don’t have to be a dick, Jude! ’ “Yeah,

and you didn’t have to be a whore either...”

I hang up and go to throw my phone but stop just in time. I don’t really want to have to go get a new one

in the morning, so I pocket it, and do the next best thing; I go back inside and get fucking shit faced.

My head throbs as I untangle myself from the warmth of Ella and sit up. It’s still dark outside, so I couldn’t

have slept too long. I vaguely remember Jace and Ella coming to get me and how my sweet girl got up in

that woman’s face. I try to smile but it hurts too much. Climbing from the bed, I curse as my foot lands in

the small trash bin that has been set beside the bed. Only Ella would have put this here, bless her little

heart.

“You good, buddy?” I hear Jace’s voice through the darkness.

“Yeah, I’m good...I think. Just trying to make heads or tails on how to get rid of this hellacious hangover.”

“Maybe a nice hot shower, some more pain relievers, and coffee will help. Hell, I’ll even whip you up a

nice greasy breakfast...that always helps with mine.” “You don’t have to get up and do that, bro. I did this

to myself; I’ll deal with it by myself.” “No can do, man. Ella will kick my ass if she finds out that I didn’t

help.”

I have to chuckle at that, because honestly, for being all sweet and innocent, I can see her having a

mean streak, and even I don’t want to piss her off! I glance down at the sleeping beauty and all I can see

is what the streaks of moonlight are allowing me to see.

“Yeah, okay. I’ll jump in the shower and meet you in the kitchen.

Thanks man, I appreciate it.”

I don’t normally drink this much, in fact, I never drink this much. I like being in control of every situation

that I come across. Beth fucked with my head, though, and now I’m paying the price. Thank God Jace’s

antidote seems to be working for the most part. After popping a few pills, and a nice hot shower, I wrap a

towel low around my waist and walk out to grab some shorts from my bag. The smell of bacon and eggs

has my stomach growling as I sit on a stool and watch as my best friend dish up two plates.

“You don’t have to stay up with me, Lil’ D. You should go back to bed; you have classes and then Ella’s

party tonight.”

He shrugs, “I’ve already emailed my professors telling them that I am sick and to email me the

assignments.” “It’s only your third day of classes! ” “And you’re my best fucking friend that needs me right

now, so shut the fuck up and eat! ”

A slow grin rises from my lips, and I shake my head, “I love you, Lil ’ Dick.”

He growls and goes to grab my plate from me, but I lift it and laugh, “Okay, I’m sorry, Jace, geesh!”

About halfway through eating, the dreaded question pops up.

Honestly, I‘m surprised it’s taken this long for him to bring it up, “ So, you saw no signs of any of this

beforehand?” My friend asks after I go over everything that was said between me and Beth.

“Nothing except for when she brought up the whole me and Ella thing before I came here.” I scoff, “And

to think I was thinking about her feelings this whole time! Hell, I could have fucked that dark beauty from

the bar last night, but I didn’t!” “Hey, at least you now know. I’m sorry, bro, I truly am. I don’t know what I

would do if Ella stepped out on me. I mean, aside from

you, I can’t stand the thought of her being with someone else.”

“I’m not fucking her though, that makes a difference.” I finish my coffee and then sit back, almost feeling like myself

again.

“Yet.”

I Glance over at my young friend, “Excuse me?” “You’re not fucking her yet.” “Dude, you have no worries about me

going after your girl like that. I’ve told you...”

“What if I want you to?”

I stare at him in disbelief as he pushes his uneaten eggs around on his plate, “But you don’t. We have gone over this

many times, Jace.”

He shrugs, “I know what I’ve said, and I know what I want.” He finally looks up and our eyes meet, “Don’t get me wrong,

dude, I’m not into men, but I can’t help finding it hot when I watch you with her. I don’t understand it myself; maybe it’s

because I know you care about her and will protect her just as much as I will, but I feel like you are a big part of this

relationship and the only thing missing is the real intimacy between the three of us. I’m not just talking about hot rough

sex, I mean the real stuff, you know, with feelings and everything.”

I try not to chuckle as I watch Jace struggle while talking about feelings and shit. Hell, I don’t do well either, but it’s still

fun to watch. I’m honored that he feels this way, and as much shit that I give him and the experience that I have had,

I’m not into men either. I love my women, but what he’s talking about bothers me a little bit.

“I don’t want your pity, Jace. I don’t need a pity fuck, or you lending your girl out to me just to make me feel better...” The

little fucker cuts me off as he slaps me in the back of my head.

“Don’t ever phrase it as me lending her to you! Ella isn’t a whore to be lent out!” he growls.

“I didn’t mean it that way and you know it! I just don’t want you doing this because you feel sorry for me.” I scowl and start

to get up.

“Have you ever known me to be that much of a nice guy? Have you not heard a word I’ve said? I’m doing this for me

because I find it hot, and I want to get off on watching my best friend fuck my girl! ”

I study him for a little bit, “And you’re sure that Ella will be okay with this? I don’t want things to be weird between us, Lil’

D.” “Are you kidding me? I know she was hoping for this for her birthday, a threesome with the two of us, and it will only

be weird if you make it weird.” I scrub my hand over my face, “Hey, if you don’t want to then that’s fine, I’m not going to

make you. I mean I understand with the whole Beth situation...” “Fuck Beth, she’s made her decision, and as for me not

wanting to be with Ella... that’s the furthest from the truth. I only hesitate because I’m worried that feelings will end up

getting in the way. I can’t be falling for my best friend’s girl.” “That may not be a bad thing, but let’s just see where this

takes us.” He grabs our plates and takes them to the sink, “Are you in or what because we have about an hour before

she has to start getting ready for classes.”

I’m not sure if I’m making the right decision, but I sure the hell would like to see how all of this plays out. After all, this is

Ella we are talking about. I can’t turn down the opportunity of being inside of her if both her and Jace are on board, now,

can I?
