Jude came to a halt, frozen in place.
“That wasthe hottestfucking guy I’ve ever touched,” Foster said.“Fuck.I wanna go back in there and beg for more.”
“Why don’t you?”
Jude’s skin went cold. That was Cary Archer, he was almost sure of it.
No, no, no… it can’t be Foster-Fucking-Price.
“Foster?”Jude asked, his voice raw and jagged.
The man spun at the sound of his name. His ice blue eyes met Jude’s.
Oh god, itishim.
“Foster…Price?”
He frowned and smiled at the same time. “Hey… aren’t you the guy I was just with?”
Jude nodded, barely moving.
“Do we know one another?”
A wave of sickness hit, followed immediately with an old rage he’d long buried deep. He reared his hand back and punched Foster-Fucking-Price square in the face and watched as the guy hit the island and crumbled to the floor.
“What the fuck?”Cary yelled, lunging for Jude.
“Back off, Cary,” Jude snapped.
Surprise washed over Cary’s face. Enough that it stopped him from moving another step.
“Whoareyou?” Cary asked.
“Foster’s worst nightmare,” Jude spat before spinning towards the front door. He rushed to the hallway and sighed with relief to find the server standing near the door.
“My bag. Hurry please.”
“Yes, sir.”
He bounced on his heels, needing to get the fuck out before he lost his everloving mind. As soon as the guy returned with his bag, he busted out through the front door, naked as a jaybird. He didn’t care. Hands shaking, he struggled with the zipper. Halfway down the hall, he was able to peel on his shorts before padding barefoot the rest of the way to the elevator. He slapped the button way too many times.
“Jude!”
Jude spun and saw Anton coming his way, covered in Jason’s purple robe.
“What the fuck? Why’d you punch that guy?”
“It’s Foster Price.”
Anton’s eyes widened, but he said nothing.
“I can’t be here, Ant.”
“I know. I know,” Anton said. He grabbed Jude by the shoulders. “Go down and wait for me in the lobby. Just give me time to grab my shit and say goodbye to Jason.”
“You don’t have to go,” Jude said. “I’m good. You can stay if you want.”
“Jude… just give me a couple of minutes, okay?” Anton asked before racing back to Jason’s door. “I’m not letting you go alone.”
