fork onto his plate. “Are you writing a fucking book?”
“It’s okay, Cole, Dalton is just curious.” Jax places a hand on his thigh and gives him a gentle squeeze. “We met at the hospital.”
“When?”
“A while back.”
It’s as if Jax’s answer stabs Dalton straight in the heart, and he shuts up for the rest of dinner. The only conversation made is between the two couples. Cole does his best to avoid the dickhead sitting across from him. Why does something feel so amazing when it happens, but is the same sin to haunt you forever?
“I’ll get the tab.” Cole hands his piece of plastic to the server.
He stands up and backs from the table. “I need to make a call and get the car. Meet you in the front.”
Cole places another kiss on Jax’s lips as he walks away. He’d give anything to be able to rewind the past and make all sorts of re-dos, none of them being her. Again, he lies about the business call, but needs some fresh air to get his head on straight. He made her one promise, and that was to never lie to her, and he won’t break a promise. It’s an obnoxious habit he’s never broken, and he doesn’t intend to do it now.
“Ready?”
Cole turns to see Jax standing behind him.
“I am.”
They walk hand in hand to the car and drive in silence back to her place. Cole’s hand is planted in his favorite place. He puts the car in park.
“Jax, will you always promise me one more drink?”
“If the drinks are on you!”
“They’ll always be on me.”
“I just have to get to them before Birdy.” Jax climbs over into Cole’s lap.
“I have to tell you something.” He cups her cheek and memorizes the shine to her eyes.
“Kiss me first.”
Cole leans in and kisses Jax as if his life depends on it.
“Are you crying?” she asks when he pulls away.
Cole doesn’t respond, and instead kisses her harder with desperation. Her hands fumble between them, and in moments he hears his zipper and then feels her fingers wrapped around him. Cole throws his head back and grunts with each stroke her delicate hand takes.
In the next moment he feels her core rubbing against him, and he knows in his gut he should tell her to stop. Should being the key word. But in his true greedy bastard way, he keeps his lips shut and enjoys each movement as Jax flexes her hips on his hard cock.
“Slow down, Jax.”
He does everything to hold on as long as he can, trying like hell to relish each sensation. Cole lets his tears fall freely, knowing he just tainted the most beautiful piece of his life permanently. When Jax begins to moan and writhe on him, it’s his undoing and he falls over the edge with her. It’s when their releases mix he realizes he didn’t even think of pulling the condom from his back pocket.
“Why are you crying, Cole?”
It takes him several moments to respond, and when he gains his composure he memorizes every single line and crease to her face before he speaks.
“Doc.”
“Player.”
“Jax.”
“Cole.”
“You’ve always promised me one more.”
Jax forces Cole to look up at her. “What is wrong?”
“I know Dalton.”
She only tilts her head in wonder.
“I’ve fucked him.”
He feels each word slice at the deepest part of his soul.
“It was before you.”
He watches as all color drains from her face.
“He came to the penthouse. It was my thing. More than one, and it didn’t matter two or four bodies, female or male. I had sex with Dalton. I’ve watched him with other women, we’ve been in another woman at the same time.”
He stares back at the most educated woman he’s been with, the one who stole his heart with her pure and simple ways. Jax couldn’t care less who in the fuck he was or how much money he had…she was just in it for the drinks and one more on him.
Cole truly believed in his heart that someday would come for them, when all the stars lined up perfectly, and they’d ride off into the happily ever after in the sunset, but now he
