“I hadn’t been with anyone else in almost a year,” she told him. “It was only one other guy before that…”She sniffled and wiped her eyes.“Y…You’re the only one…” she stammered as a sob escaped her lips.She was too hysterical for Ethan’s liking, and he stared at her with disgust.He pulled out his

Judy’s POVDuring the weekend we spent time doing training exercises. Most of the time was spent in the gym and I barely had time to rest before the next week's battles. However, Tabby and I did spend a little time celebrating after we got our official notices that we moved on to the next round.We
I realized it wasn’t just a backpack; it was a parachute.Were we jumping out of the plane? The man stepped around me and blindfolded me, blocking my vision.A sense of panic rose in my chest.I didn’t like not being able to see. He guided me down the aisle of the plane and sat me down.After he ga
Judy’s POVIt’s been a while since I shifted into my wolf form and hunted.My wolf might have been smaller than the rest, but her senses had always been above average.She sniffed the forest ground, getting a whiff of the prey that was miles away. She roamed through the trees, her small paws careful
Sherri and some others started to cut the meat off the deer, using some tools they created after gathering supplies from foraging. I was surprised they were able to create handy tools so quickly. We had only been here for a couple of hours, and we were already making some serious progress.A howl in
Judy’s POVWhen I returned to the camp, Tabby was the one who greeted me first.“Are you okay?” She asked, rushing toward me.I wasn’t sure what to say. I was fine now, though I was a bit sore from the fight, all the wounds I had from it were completely healed.I touched my neck, frowning at the mem
I was still in disbelief over it.“Wait what??” She asked, dumbfounded. “She healed you and she wasn’t part of our team?”“She healed me by licking the wound,” I emphasized. “It was so strange. And then she just disappeared.”“You don’t know where she went??” Tabby gasped.“No,” I admitted. “But I w
“Change of plans… take me to the place,” I told him.He furrowed his brows in response.“Why?” He asked.“Irene needs my help with the baby, that’s why,” I told him simply. “If Gavin doesn’t want to see me, then that’s fine, but I’m not cutting myself off from Irene.”He nodded and, without another
Judy’s POVMy entire body was frigid as I heard what this woman…a woman I had never even heard of before, saying that Gavin was in the shower. My entire body shook, and I could feel my heart shattering in my chest. I barely registered her words next because I was so numb from the inside out.My hear
“Well, hello there, Judy,” she said, her pleasantries easing my mind slightly.“Good morning, Mrs. Connolly,” I replied, stopping in front of her desk. “I heard Dean Griffin wanted to speak with me.”She nodded and turned back to her computer; she typed something on the screen and then turned toward
Judy’s POV“You look as if you haven’t slept in days,” Nan points out as I join her in the coffee shop near the school campus. I felt gross; I didn’t bother showering and knew I had dark circles under my eyes. “I haven’t,” I admitted. “Not since my date with Gavin.”“You still haven’t heard from h
“It’s not fair that you are letting him dictate your lie like that. How can you scare so easily, having Lycan blood?” I asked him, narrowing my eyes.“It’s because I have Lycan blood that makes it scary. I was on another Lycan’s territory. There are laws…”“It’s my fault for not telling you in the f
Judy’s POVI watched Gavin’s face go pale as he clutched the phone tightly. His eyes met mine, and I could see the turmoil, confusion, and something else lingering in them. My heart squeezed at the sight of him like this.After a long beat of silence, he finally cleared his throat.“Can you have Gam
“What happened between them?” I found myself asking.Judy smirked and stepped closer to me.“You are such a protective father,” she teased, wrapping her arms around my neck and pressing her body against mine. “It’s kind of hot.”She was deflecting my question and trying to distract me; just like how
Gavin’s POVWhen I got to the mansion, I wasn’t expecting to see guests. I scowled as I stared at Judy who looked like a deer caught in the headlights. I could hear her heart pounding against her chest and her breathing picked up, like she was just caught red handed.“Who gave you permission to have
“I guess so,” she whispered. “I just hope he’ll one day see it that way too and I can return home.”That was another reason she had to stay in this mansion; she couldn’t be around matt right now without his wolf going insane and trying to rip her throat out for betraying them. She nearly tried to ki
