our parents were killed. He worked three jobs to give me a home and family values. I owe him for everything I am.”
Miranda started to sob and Jude held her tight and let her cry. He rocked back and forth and whispered words of comfort.
“Shhhh baby, it’s gonna be all right. We are going to get through this together. You’re home now and I am going to take care of you. We will go through this together.”
< s"2%home p> When the fire started to burn down, Miranda looked at Jude and sighed. She didn’t want this evening to end or what she felt deep inside.
“It has been a great evening, but I think it is time for me to head home. Can I help you clean up in here?”
“No, Mandy, I can get it. Do you want me to drive you home seeing that you have had a few drinks?”
“I’m fine to drive Jude, but I think I really should put my clothes back on. Or do I have to go home bare-assed like you mentioned?”
“I should make you go home naked for being so sarcastic, but I would love to help you get dressed.”
Jude laughed and helped Miranda to her feet. He grabbed her panties and got down on one knee as she steadied herself with a hand on his shoulder. She slipped in one foot, than the other. He carefully tugged her panties into place and kissed his way up her body. Miranda took a deep breath and looked down at Jude.
“Jude, you evil man. If you start doing that, I am not going to make it home.”
“Mmmmm, I know baby.”
Jude mumbled and smiled up at her and nuzzled her tummy. She leaned down, kissed his lips gently and tousled his hair.
“M y pants please, Mr. Delaney.”
“Killjoy .”
Jude grabbed her pants and helped her slip into them and button the fly. He was pouting, playfully, and Miranda laughed. He fastened her bra and slipped her blouse back over her head. She reached for his shirt and slipped it over his muscled chest and stroked his abs with the back of her hand. Jude pulled the tee shirt over his nose and inhaled.
“It smells like you, Miranda. I may not ever wash this shirt.”
He drew his arm around her waist, kissed her and they headed back to the kitchen. He helped her on with her jacket and walked her out to her vehicle. Jude pinned Miranda against her Lexus and kissed her passionately. She wove her fingers in his hair and returned his kiss, matching his passion.
“Good night, Mandy.”
“Good b….night Jude.”
Miranda corrected herself quickly. Jude looked at her and tilted his head slightly.
“Another time I will tell you why I never say goodbye. For now, just know it bothers me and I can’t deal with hear ing it...especially from you.”
Miranda looked at Jude. His eyes looked distant and far away. Taking a few steps back, Miranda turned quickly, yelled his name and ran at him.
“Hey, Jude! Catch!”
Jude shook his head when she yelled and barely caught sight of her launching hers saunpanelf at him and caught her. Miranda wrapped her arms and legs around him and laughed.
“Still quick on your feet I see.”
Jude, with Miranda in his arms, started to laugh uncontrollably. He planted a smack on her ass and a kiss on her lips as she squealed from both. Setting her down, Miranda climbed into her car, still laughing.
“Still an unpredictable nut I see.”
“Good night, Jude.”
“Good night, Mandy.”
Jude closed the door and stepped back as her car roared to life. Miranda drove off, throwing Jude a quick wave. He nodded and walked back into his house. Jude leaned against the kitchen door and a broad smile appeared on his lips. He walked back into the study with the intent to clean up. Damn, it is going to drive me fucking crazy until Ross calls. I need to find out now what I am up against...what the fuck happened in California. Jude went to his computer and dropped a quick email to Ross.
“Ross…need info
