Meredith and Kelsey chuckled and continued their banter. It was as if they had forgotten I was there. “What is that foul smell,” another voice said from nearby. I froze at the sound of that voice. “Oh… it’s you.” I turned to see Sophia, Ethan’s grandmother, approaching us. “Why are you here?
Judy’s POV “And who do you think you are?” Meredith asked, raising her brows at the man standing behind me. “This is a private party,” Sophia chimed in. “You weren’t invited.” “This is a pack party and you are not pack,” Meredith added, rolling her eyes. “He’s handsome though. Maybe he shoul
“Daddy!” Irene gasped, rushing to his side. “Don’t be rude to Ethan’s family.” “I’m not the one being rude,” he said through his teeth. “It was a misunderstanding,” Sophia went on to say, her words coming out hoarse. “We didn’t know who you were.” “And that makes it okay?” Gavin asked, raising
Judy’s POV “Mom, you can’t be serious!” I gasped. “How could you agree to such a thing.” “I know it’s not the ideal situation but—” “Not the ideal situation?!” “Don’t raise your voice at me, Judy,” my mother scolded. “We need the money, and I am running out of options.” “If they are so kee
“He’s a ruthless Alpha,” my mother warned. “He’s a Lycan chairman, and very powerful. Be careful around him. Make sure to show him respect.” I nodded. My mother finished cleaning our mess in the bathroom before she turned and walked out, leaving me alone with my thoughts. I stared at myself in t
Gavin’s POV The rage I felt when I saw Ethan’s family tormenting Judy was beyond what I had ever felt in my life. I was honestly surprised that I was able to control myself. Staying at this barbeque wasn’t something I wanted to do, but Judy pleaded with me to let it go for right now and I wasn’t g
I didn’t bother sticking around to hear any more of what they had to say; I was done for the evening and if I had to drag Judy out of there by force then I would. Thankfully, it didn’t come to that. Judy said her quick goodbyes, though most of them went unanswered, and then she hurried after me, kee
Third Person POV The look Ethan had on his face when Judy left the party with her father did not go unnoticed by Irene. There was a look of longing; almost like he was a lost child, and it made Irene’s heart ache. She bit her bottom lip, refusing to cry in front of Ethan’s family. She had already
It was true, the Silver Crescent pack and the Redmoon pack have kind of merged into one pack with Gavin being the Alpha. It’ll be that way until the Redmoon is appointed an Alpha. I do feel better though knowing Ethan is out of the running.“Now that Sammy is no longer a factor, will my father let y
Judy’s POVI wanted to leave, despite Gavin’s protests. I didn’t want to go home though. So, after a back and forth, he decided to bring me to the mansion. Now that Sammy and Ethan had been caught, he figured it was safe enough for me to return to the mansion and stay with Irene.She was overly thri
I thought about calling Dr. Pierce to have her take a look at her, but Judy soon stirred, giving me a sliver of hope that se was coming to. Though, the waiting didn’t end there. She continued to sleep and made small noises for the next few hours. I put a warm cloth over her face and continued to kee
Gavin’s POVIt was almost like her scent had vanished from pack property. We were able to track her to the forest line, but then suddenly it was gone completely. Though, I thought I smelled a bit of Ethan as well which wasn’t surprising. If they were in cahoots with one another, it meant Sammy could
Something stopped her from resisting me though; her eyes flashed over to the black wolf, and we watched as she shifted forms, returning to her human state.My jaw nearly hit the ground; Sammy stood in all her glory. She was completely naked and admittedly had a great body. Her hair was long and drap
I ignored the gasp of my mother and the reddened face of my father. I didn’t want to disrespect either of them, but they were treating me like I was a child, incapable of making my own choices. This was my life, and I got to choose what I did with it. I would forever be grateful to them for raising
Judy’s POV“You cannot tell me who I can and cannot see, Dad,” I told him, my arms folded across my chest. I’m usually compliant and I don’t typically talk back to my parents, but at this point, I was furious. My father had seriously crossed the line and then he had the audacity to hang up on Gavin
He handed me the phone that we confiscated from Sammy and pressed the play button. I watched as the big black wolf leapt in the air and rescued Judy. My stomach twisted at the sight; I wondered if Judy knew that it was Sammy that saved her.The office door opened again, and Taylor walked in.“We wer
Judy’s POVI don’t remember leaving the villa; I don’t remember getting into my car. I have no idea how I managed to go from the villa back to my parents’ house. Everything was such a blur. I was in a daze when I got out of my car. My mother immediately ran out of the house, tears in her eyes and a
