“I… I apologize,” Taylor said, lowering his gaze. “It was an oversight, and it won’t happen again. I’ll make sure it’s fixed by the end of today.” “What good does that do me now??” Gavin asked, turning to face him fully, his eyes red with fury. “My son was poisoned, and we have no camera footage s
Judy’s POV “Judy! We are so glad you decided to move in as well,” Meredith said as she greeted us at the doorway. Kelsey was also there with her arms folded across her chest and she was glaring at me. I tried hard to not look her in the eyes. This was the last place I wanted to be and the less I h
Without saying a word to me, Kelsey tipped her nose up and walked straight towards the staircase. We walked around the curvy hallway until we reached the door at the end. She pushed the door open, and I nearly vomited from the smell alone. It was also incredibly dark; when she flipped on the light,
“If I knew, I wouldn’t be asking,” I said exasperated. “Talk to me, Matt,” I said more softly as I walked closer to his bed. “Why are you upset with me?” Matt swallowed and I could see the moisture in his eyes; it broke my heart. Whatever was wrong… it was serious. “What did you say to Judy that
Third Person POV “What do you mean you found the perpetrator?” Gavin asked through the mindlink. He glanced at Matt who was still lost in thought. Had he lied to him? Matt has never lied before… has he? “It was a maid,” Taylor continued. “She was found with the peanut butter in her room. The s
I shrugged and chewed the inside of my cheek. “I don’t think she really notices how bad things are for me,” I admitted. “When I tried to talk to her about it, she told me that I need to be grateful to the Cash family and I shouldn’t complain too much.” Nan rolled her eyes. “She’s completely bl
Gavin’s POV “Every last maid was investigated, sir,” one of my gammas informed me. “They knew nothing about the crime and was astonished she would do such a thing. None of them will vouge for her though, fearing banishment.” I nodded and tapped my fingers on my desk. “And that maid is gone?”
A knot formed in the pit of my stomach as I stared at my Beta. “Then, where is she??” “She moved into the Cash family manor,” Taylor blurted. Fury boiled through me; over my dead body will I allow Judy to continue living in that mansion. Not after the way they treated her the last time we were t
“Yes,” I whispered softly. My wolf’s ears perked at my admission. This was the first time I was admitting out loud that I was in love with Gavin Landry. “I love him.”Irene’s eyes grew wide, not expecting that I would spill my secret so easily.“No shit?” She asked, her eyes even wider as she took i
Judy’s POVAfter how I spoke to my father and how hurt my mother was when I left, the last place I wanted to be right now was home. Nan went to spend the evening with Chester, leaving Irene and me alone with the baby. I already made the decision to spend the night and then figure out the rest in the
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
