CHAPTER TEN

‘NO!’ TRUDY gasped over the telephone after Justine had related a slightly edited version of the day’s events. ‘I don’t believe it!’

‘But you were the one who said Marcus fancied me in the first place!’ Justine protested.

‘That’s not the part I don’t believe, silly. It’s your fancying him back I don’t believe.’

‘I know. I find that hard to believe myself. He’s just left and I simply had to tell someone. I couldn’t tell Mum. She’s still got Tom with her.’

‘Who’s Tom?’

‘Our gardener.’

‘I thought you said you couldn’t afford a gardener.’

‘We can’t. But he’s insisting on doing it for nothing. He says he doesn’t need the money and that he would be at a loss without the work. I have a feeling he’s sweet on Mum. He’s a widower, you know. I think she likes him too. She was all atwitter over afternoon tea. And she didn’t gush over Marcus like I thought she would. Tom got all her attention.

‘Anyway, enough about Mum and Tom. I rang you up to talk about Marcus and me. I need your advice about something. Trudy, I’m going out with him next Saturday night and he’s going to have a fit when he finds out I’m a virgin. I just know he will.’

‘My God, you’re going to sleep with him on your first date? I mean, this is you we’re talking about, isn’t it, Jussie, not me?’

‘Yes.’ Justine sighed. ‘It’s me.’ She knew it sounded totally out of character, but she also knew she wouldn’t be able to resist Marcus if he started making love to her.

And he would. She just knew he would! He hadn’t wanted to take her to his house this afternoon to play chess!

‘My God, what did he do to you today? Put a spell on you or something?’

Perhaps, Justine conceded. She was totally bewitched and besotted with the man. He’d filled her every thought since he’d left the house only fifteen minutes earlier. Yet already it felt like a lifetime.

‘He’s not what I thought he was,’ she said. ‘He’s...he’s...’

‘A banker,’ came Trudy’s dry remark. ‘Never forget that. And he was once married to the biggest trollop since Jezebel. Or so Father said. I didn’t know her myself. Father says he’s once bitten ninety times shy. He won’t marry you, Jussie.’

‘But I don’t want him to marry me.’ The very thought had never crossed her mind!

‘This is me you’re talking to, remember? I know you, Jussie. If you fancy the guy that much, I’ll bet my bottom dollar you’re already falling in love with him. Once you’ve lost your virginity to him you’ll be head over heels and thinking about foreverland. Especially if he proves to be a good lover—which thankfully, I doubt.’

‘He will be a good lover,’ Justine said, quivering at the memory of what he’d done to her on her mother’s bed.

‘You sound very sure of that. Good Lord, what did he do to you today? I don’t believe this. I was only joking the other night when I said you might be turned on by that cold-blooded devil.
