“Because I still chose the money over us.” I touched my forehead to his, and he exhaled, his breath tickling over my lips.
“No, you chose your mom, and that’s understandable. I wish.... Fuck! You should’ve told me earlier, Tav. The moment she offered you the money to break up with me, you should have told me.” He shook his head. “I could’ve.... I would’ve done something.”
I laughed quietly. “Fuck off. We were eighteen, and you were about to go to college. You didn’t have money either, Jude.” It felt natural to slip back into his nickname now that some of the anger in him had been tamed. “There was nothing you could do.”
“You should’ve told me,” he repeated, this time quietly.
I smiled sadly. “About Mum? Aye, I should’ve. I thought.... I thought I’d get more time with her. But I don’t regret not telling you about the money or contract.” He stiffened, and I hurried to keep speaking. “I love you, Jude, and I never stopped. I hated having to break your heart. I wanted us to be together forever. But Mum.... She needed this peace, knowing she wasn’t leaving me with hospital bills. She deserved a serene death.” I winced. Painkillers that the doctors had given her helped with that.
“She would never have let you take money from my parents if she knew what the cost of it was....” He raised his eyebrows, a question in his eyes.
I chuckled. “No, she never knew where it came from. I told her that an anonymous donor came forward to help patients with cancer.” I rubbed his cheek absentmindedly, closing my eyes to remember her face before she grew sicker. Her laughter, her smile, and her kindness. Then, there was her sadness when I’d admitted to her that Judah and I were no longer together. “I told her that you broke up with me.”
He startled, jerking back out of my touch, and I let him go.
“It was the only way she’d drop it. If I told her I walked away from you, she’d ask a lot of questions, and I wouldn’t’ve been able to lie through her interrogation.” My shoulders slumped at the hurt expression that swept over his face. “You know what she was like.”
He scoffed and shot to his feet, stepping away from me, and I watched him. “She died thinking I broke your heart.”
I rubbed a palm over my chest and stopped, the stickiness of Judah’s cum and piss reminding me of what we’d done. I stared down at my shirt to see some of the mess had soaked through the front. It wasn’t much, but there were a few wet spots.
“Come on, get up. It’s getting late. Let’s go back to my house.”
I carefully stood and stretched out my sore muscles. After how he’d bent me, it was no surprise that my body ached. I lifted homemade weights, so it was the kind of burn I was used to, though. “I can’t. Ellis will be back from school, and I need to be home for him.”
A flash of anger lit up his eyes and he crossed his arms. “What is with him? Who is he, Tav?”
Jealousy was a funny thing. Before, Judah had never felt threatened by other men. There were guys around our age who had asked me out, and some had asked Judah, too, but he’d never had a reason to worry. He’d laughed it off. This was new, and I had a love-hate relationship with how hot it was to see him possessive of me.
I chuckled. “Stop getting your knickers in a knot. I told you, he’s just staying with me until he finishes high school.”
“It doesn’t answer the question, does it?” He ate up the distance between us and grabbed my hand, holding it in front of our faces to show the bracelet on my wrist. “This is mine. I gave it to you, which means you are mine.”
I grinned, amused. “Aye, sir.”
He shoved me backward, and I hit the edge of his desk, my arse plopping down on it. Something sharp bit into my left cheek and it felt like a pen, but I ignored it as he towered over me, storminess clouding his expression. My cock perked up even though I’d only just come. Fuck. Since when did I find angry and possessive hot?
He nudged my chest with his hand, and I fell to my back across the desk, my shirt riding up my belly. He hooked his fingers under the hem, pushing it up until the material was bunched under my chin before he bent forward and licked across my right nipple.
I gasped, arching off the desk, and he shoved me back down by my hips before his mouth latched on to my nub. He sucked on it hard, teething the nipple and flicking his tongue across it, eliciting spikes of pleasure that went straight south to my cock. The kisses and marks he bit onto my pecs were punishing and possessive, and one glance down at him nearly had me coming undone. His eyes had darkened and he was watching me, eating up my reactions as only a starving bloke would.
“This is mine. You are mine,” he snarled out before he went to work on the other nipple.
I shuddered through his attention, not quite sure if I needed him to keep sucking on my tits or work his way south to my boner. Everything he did to me felt like it was directly connected to my cock, though, and it throbbed where it was once again trapped in my jeans.
The mewl that escaped me would’ve been embarrassing during any other time, but I didn’t really give a shite what noises I made right now. I would bloody sing if he asked me to because I needed him like I needed air.
His tongue danced across my chest, and I watched as he licked up the mess he’d left behind. If it’d been anyone else, I might have made jokes about it, but the way he stared at me while he did it had my whole body on fire. My skin buzzed and the blood in my veins sizzled with the kind of desire that I’d never experienced. This older version of Judah was a hundred times better than the teen, and I wasn’t sure if I could let him go a second time.
“Mm, the mixed taste of me and you.” He winked.
“Jude—”
A sharp knock on the door had me jerking to sit up and shove down my shirt. Judah straightened, smoothing his hand down his suit as though he didn’t appear as if he’d freshly fucked me. His hair was in a state, strands sticking up everywhere, and his mouth was kiss swollen.
I assumed I didn’t look much better.
“Who is it?” he demanded more than asked.
