CHAPTER 1

JaneThe woman staring back at me in the mirror looked like a bride. White lace clung to curves I had learned to hide and to despise. My auburn hair was pinned into an elegant updo that had taken the stylist two hours. My makeup had been carefully applied to make my green eyes look less tired and less defeated.I looked like a bride, but I didn't feel like one. My hands trembled as I smoothed down the front of the dress for the hundredth time.I only had thirty minutes until I walked down that aisle and became Mrs. Jane Armstrong. I only had thirty minutes until everything changed.“It will change.” I told myself firmly. It was the same mantra I had been repeating for months. Marriage will make him kinder. Marriage will make him see me differently. Marriage will make him love me.The thought felt hollow, even in my own head.I pressed my palm against my stomach, trying to calm the nausea rolling through me. Behind me, the bridal suite was empty.Maribel had left ten minutes ago to c

CHAPTER 2

JaneJulius Armstrong's piercing grey gaze locked with mine, and I didn’t think it was possible, but the humiliation grew even worse. It wasn't enough that I had caught my fiancé fucking my best friend minutes before our wedding. It wasn't enough that Hudson had kept going, had mocked me and had reduced me to nothing while he buried himself inside Maribel.Now his father had witnessed it too. The most powerful and intimidating man I had ever known had just seen me at my most pathetic.Fresh tears spilled down my carefully made-up face. I couldn't breathe. The walls were closing in, and Hudson's voice still echoed in my head.Pathetic. Unwanted. Nothing.My hands fisted in the layers of white lace as my entire body trembled, my lips quivering. I had to get out. I needed to run. I had to be anywhere but here, standing frozen while Julius Armstrong looked at me with those unreadable eyes.I raised my dress slightly and raced out of the room, my heels clicking against the floors.“Jane

CHAPTER 3

JaneJulius froze. For one terrible, endless moment, his lips were still against mine and his body was rigid with shock. I had made a mistake. A horrible and irreversible mistake. I was kissing my fiancé's father. The man who was supposed to become my father-in-law in less than twenty minutes. What was I thinking? What was I—Then his hand came up to cup the back of my neck, and he kissed me back. The kiss was not gentle or tentative. He devoured me.His lips moved against mine with a hunger that stole my breath, his other hand sliding to my waist, pulling me closer. I gasped against his mouth and he took advantage, his tongue sweeping in to taste me. He tasted nothing like Hudson.My fiancè, who had stopped kissing me months ago, who had barely touched me except to criticize or berate me. This was different. This was dangerousThe word flickered through my mind and alarm bells went off in my head, but I couldn't bring myself to care. Julius kissed me like I was something preciou

CHAPTER 4

JaneMy eyes locked with Julius’s and in that moment, I saw my own desperation reflected back at me.“Please,” I whispered, my hands sliding up his chest to frame his face. “Please make me forget. Just for a few minutes. Make me forget Hudson. Make me forget—” My voice cracked. “Make me forget everything. Please, Julius.”His jaw clenched, conflict warring in those grey eyes. “Jane—”“I need this,” I said desperately. "I need to feel wanted. Even if it's wrong. Even if it's just for a moment. Please.”Something in Julius broke. I saw it happen. I saw the moment his iron control shattered. His hands tightened on my hips, pulling me harder against him, and when he kissed me this time, it was with complete surrender.“God help me,” He groaned against my mouth. “I can't say no to you.”His lips moved to my neck, kissing and biting the sensitive skin there while his hands roamed everywhere, my back, my waist, sliding down to grip my ass through the layers of fabric. I gasped, grinding do

CHAPTER 5

HudsonI straightened my tie in the bathroom mirror, checking my reflection with satisfaction. I was perfectly composed and there was not a strand of hair out of place. No one would ever know I had just spent the last twenty minutes balls-deep in my fiancée's best friend.Maribel emerged from the stall, smoothing down her bridesmaid dress. Fucking finally, the woman took forever to make herself presentable. Her lipstick was smudged and her hair was mussed. She looked properly fucked and satisfied.“That was amazing,” She purred, pressing herself against my back. “We should do it again after the reception.”“Maybe,” I said dismissively, moving away from her touch. I had gotten what I wanted. Maribel was hot enough to scratch an itch, but she was also clingy as hell. “Fix your makeup. You look like you've been crying.”Her face fell slightly, but she obeyed, pulling out her compact. Good. I liked women who knew their place.Jane knew hers too, even if she occasionally forgot. Walking

CHAPTER 6

JaneThe city lights blurred past the tinted windows as Julius's driver who Julius had called after we fucked in the car, navigated through downtown. I sat in the back of the car, my wedding dress a wrinkled mess around my thighs, my body still trembling from what we had just done. What I had just done.I should have felt guilty. Horrified. Ashamed of myself for fucking my fiancé's father in the back of a car while Hudson waited at the altar, but all I felt was alive.Julius sat beside me, his hand possessive on my thigh, his grey eyes studying me like I was a puzzle he intended to solve. He had barely spoken since we finished. He just held me while I caught my breath, his fingers tracing lazy patterns on my skin.“Where are we going?” I finally asked, my voice hoarse.“My place,” His thumb stroked higher, dangerously close to where I was still slick and sensitive. “Unless you prefer I drop you somewhere else?”I wanted to say yes. I wanted to ask him to take me to a hotel, or back

CHAPTER 7

Julius I woke to the sound of panicked breathing beside me.My eyes snapped open immediately, years of business instinct kicking in. It was clear that something was wrong. Jane sat upright in my bed, the sheet clutched to her chest, her breathing rapid and shallow and her face pale."Jane?" I sat up, reaching for her instinctively.She flinched away from my touch, and that small movement hit me harder than it should have."I can't—I shouldn't—" Her words tumbled out in fragments, her chest heaving. "Oh God, what did I do? What did we—"She was having a panic attack. I recognized it immediately. I had seen enough high-pressure executives crack under stress to know the signs, but this wasn't business. This was personal, and seeing Jane like this, terrified and spiraling, sent a protective surge through me that I had been fighting for a while.Ever since Hudson had first brought her to a family dinner and I had watched her navigate his cruelty with grace."Jane, look at me," I kept my

CHAPTER 8

JuliusI tried to intervene in small ways. Complimenting Jane when Hudson criticized her. Asking her opinion when Hudson talked over her. Treating her with the respect and courtesy my son never showed, but it hadn't been enough.The wedding was supposed to be the culmination of Hudson's victory. Jane, finally trapped. Finally his forever, and then yesterday happened.I had been walking through the hotel corridors, looking for Hudson to tell him the ceremony was about to start, when I heard a sound that made my blood run cold.A choked sob. I had rounded the corner and seen Jane standing in front of an open conference room door, her hand pressed to her mouth, her whole body trembling. She was still in her wedding dress, looking like an angel, but the expression on her face was pure devastation, and through that open door, I had seen them.Hudson with his pants around his ankles, buried deep in Maribel who was bent over the conference table, her bridesmaid dress hiked up around her wa

CHAPTER 9

JaneThe cab smelled like stale cigarettes and air freshener, and I pressed myself against the worn vinyl seat, watching the city blur past through rain-streaked windows.I slept with Julius.The thought kept circling my mind like a vulture, picking at the carcass of my morality. I had actually done it. I fucked my fiancé's father. Ex-fiancé? No. Hudson was still my fiancé. We had never officially broken up, which meant I had cheated on him.Just like he cheated on you, a small voice whispered.I shoved it down viciously. Two wrongs didn't make a right. My mother had drilled that into me since childhood. What Hudson did was horrible, unforgivable, but what I had done in response...God, what had I been thinking?I hadn't been thinking. That was the problem. I had been hurt and angry and when Julius offered me that escape, that oblivion, I had taken it without considering the consequences."Stupid," I muttered under my breath. "So fucking stupid."The cab driver glanced at me in the

CHAPTER 10

JaneTime fractured into broken shards of disbelief and yet, Hudson didn't stop.Our eyes locked, and something shifted in his expression, something dark and triumphant, and instead of pulling away, instead of showing even a flicker of shame or remorse, he smiled.And then he fucked Maribel harder."Oh fuck, oh fuck oh fuck." Maribel moaned, her voice climbing higher as Hudson's hips slammed into her with renewed vigor, the filthy sound of skin slapping against skin filling the room.My lips trembled, and I couldn't move. I couldn't breathe. I couldn't dare look away. My feet were rooted to the spot Hudson's hands slid up Maribel's sweat-slicked back, fingers digging into her flesh as he pounded into her. His body was exactly as I remembered from the few times we had sex. He was lean and fit, his shoulders broad and his stomach flat. He had the kind of body that looked good in expensive suits. I had always thought he was handsome. Perfect, even.Now all I could see was the cruel se
