Chapter 55 Ava Gets a New Plan

"

"

Ava was still angry over Jax kissing her twice. Slurping, wet tongue shoved down her throat kisses. They were far below romance novel caliber kisses and Hallmark movie kisses. If rated on a scale, they would be in the negative numbers. It was no wonder Jax was such a bad kisser though considering he learned from his family dog. He didn't even have the common decency to be embarrassed about it. How the hell could she have married such a loser? It was extra humiliating because she'd actually paid him to marry her.

Why the hell couldn't she have found some nice inmate that would have stayed in prison like she'd planned? What were the chances she'd pick a guy who was innocent and set up by the government? Leave it to her father to get him out of prison. Why wouldn't this nightmare end? How could she endure three years with Jax Teller? She thought she'd had all these thoughts before but she wasn't sure. If she had, she was having them again and there was still no answer.

Why couldn't he just act like a guy was supposed to act? When he pulled her up from the water, it had been so romantic and then he spoiled it with that nightmare kiss. Why the hell couldn't he figure out that all she wanted was for him to cradle her tenderly in his arms for a few moments. Too bad the family dog couldn't teach him about romance. On the other hand, it was probably good the family dog only taught him how to kiss given how badly that had turned out.

She got back to her cabana, dried off and stretched out in the lounge chair, her eyes shut so if Jax returned she wouldn't have to see him. She'd learned that she didn't have the physical strength to kill him. Even if she got him really drunk, she wouldn't have the strength to shove him over the balcony railing at their hotel.

Maybe death was too high a price for being an annoying, dog kissing loser. Her opinion was subject to change but for the present, killing him was probably over the top and it was unlikely she could pull it off without getting caught. And her father seemed to really like Jax. If she got arrested for killing Jax, he might not help her get off.

Now that murder was out as a solution, at least for now, she needed a new plan. She opened her eyes and saw him back on the beach surrounded by another cluster of women and a couple of guys all wanting selfies. The world was going to hell with social media paving the way.

She knew she should check to see if anything about Jax and their marriage had turned up on social media, but she didn't want to know the answer. She didn't want to look at pictures of Jax with his groupies. She didn't want to see what her fake friends had to say if they knew she was married to the famous Jax Teller, poster man for wrongful convictions and government insanity.

Ava shut her eyes and got an idea on how she could get out of her marriage to Jax. She wasn't sure if she were hallucinating or if she were in some strange dreamlike state neither awake nor asleep. This idea was better than murder and if for some reason it failed, she wouldn't get arrested.

Most of Ava's upbringing had been done by television. She thought it showed real life. The plans the characters came up with usually worked out or if they failed, everything still worked out. Her plan was definitely TV show level. That had to mean it would work out.

Jax thought he was such a damned expert when it came to gay men. She was still mad at him for making fun of her because that guy she thought liked her was gay. This plan would get back at him for that too. She was going to make Jax look gay. It was simple but brilliant.

It was so perfect. Her father had almost a phobia about sex. He had never told her about sex. She'd learned the biology and birth control aspects from an enlightened high school and romance novels filled in the feelings part of sex.

She would send him an email telling him that Jax wouldn't have sex with her because he was gay and she didn't know what to do. She would show him some pictures of Jax with men. He would be passed out drunk and they would be staged, but her father wouldn't know that. Her father wouldn't confront Jax because her father would never talk about sex. If she hadn't been born, she could have sworn her father had never even had sex.

If her father did confront Jax, he couldn't say much because the pictures were proof. His MC might not look too favorably at having a gay member. Jax wouldn't want those pictures passed around the clubhouse. He would agree to an annulment or divorce to keep those pictures away from his MC and he would give back the money she had paid him to marry her.

As far as Jax's lawsuits for wrongful imprisonment or whatever they were going to call them, their divorce could help because they could blame the divorce on him being locked up and it damaged their marriage. More money for both of them.

Her father would feel so bad for her, he would help her get an annulment or divorce from Jax and change his will to make amends to her.

That sloppy taught by a dog kissing bastard was going to be sorry when she got her revenge and her freedom.

Author's Note: It may seem that no one could believe that Jax was gay, but there are all kinds of stories about men and women deciding after twenty years of marriage that they are gay.

I also watched a few minutes of an old episode of the British version of Queer as Folk that Charlie Hunnam starred in early in his career for inspiration. And Ava thinks life is like TV.
