Judy’s POVSammy and I went through the front foyer of the resort, where she saw Tyler dragging Nan. My heart was pounding against my rib cage at the thought of something happening to her. I never trusted Tyler, and I should have tried harder to get her to cut ties with him, but I stupidly didn’t li
“What are you doing here?” I asked, staring between him and Nan.Nan had a slight blush on her cheeks, and I had to fight to keep from smiling.“What do you think I’m doing here?” He asked, raising his brows. “You gave me an address; did you think I wouldn’t use it?”“You couldn’t wait until we retu
Judy’s POVI stared at Nan dumbfounded for a long moment. “Like a second fated mate?” I asked her.She nodded and met my eyes.“Yes, like a second fated mate. Do you think I could have another fated mate if I reject this one… or if he rejects me?” She asked, nibbling on her lip. “I always only saw
“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

“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
Judy’s POVThe thought of Gavin with another woman physically hurt. The thought that he was so in love with her that he was planning on proposing, nearly destroyed me. My wolf’s reaction came out of nowhere; I had to restrain her as she pushed forward, wanting to go for a run to release some of this
