Gavin’s POV“Alpha Gavin….?” I heard a voice from behind me as I was heading to the arena.I paused when Megan, a woman I had once had a fling with, walked towards me.Megan was tall and slender with long blonde hair and ocean-blue eyes. She always wore elegant clothing, which made sense because her
Judy was not mine to care for or protect, so I wasn’t sure why a scratch bothered me so much.“Looks like we have our winners,” Megan whispered from behind me. “Any of them from your pack?”My eyes remained fixed on Judy. I didn’t want to engage in a conversation with Megan; I mainly just wanted to
Her breath hitched, and her eyes grew wide as I pulled her into a dark corner, secluded from the eyes of everyone around us.“Gavin,” she breathed as I pressed her against the wall. “What are you—?” She started to say, but I didn’t give her a chance before my lips were pressed against hers. The kiss

It was a good punch, too, enough for his nose to take a bit of damage and blood to trickle out. Though Irene looked small and dainty like a princess, she was Gavin Landry’s daughter. Of course, he had her train at a young age for a bit of combat and self-defense.She wasn’t completely helpless, and
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
I was so focused on feeding her that I didn’t notice Gavin leaning against the doorframe, watching me. There was a look I didn’t recognize in his eyes, almost a thoughtful expression. When our eyes met, it almost seemed to snap him back to the present moment.“We're going to use the mansion to hide
Judy’s POVI stared at Gavin in shock; he wasn’t smiling or laughing… he wasn’t joking. The baby in Irene’s arms belonged to Ethan. But it definitely wasn’t Irene’s baby. I turned to her as her eyes found mine, and I could see the conflict in her own eyes. She had been crying before we arrived; I co
“What is it?” Alex finally asked after a long while of silence.“I need to call my father,” Irene said, still in a daze.She grabbed her phone and swiped across the screen until she got to Gavin’s contact number. Then she pressed the call button, her breathing shaky. She’s hoping that her tone doesn
Third Person POVIrene was lost in thought, lying in the parlor, doom-scrolling through her phone. She frowned when she came across a recent article that featured her father and Judy out on what seemed like a date. Irene wasn’t stupid, she knew that there was something going on between the two of th
“Did you think I wouldn’t?” I asked him.He shrugged his shoulders.“I knew Dad would come back, but I didn’t think you would take,” he admitted. “But I’m glad you’re here. Doctor Pierce said I can leave later today because my vitals are good.”Eliza nodded, a fond look in her eyes.“It’s true. He s
Judy’s POVI slept better than I had in a long time. I was fully satisfied both emotionally and sexually. As the sun cast its morning rays through the window, causing a subdued light in the room, I stretched out my body and yawned tiredly. Gavin’s arms tightened around me from behind, pulling me clo
I finally broke my kiss from her mouth and started to trail down the nape of her neck. I nibbled on her ear, kissed the sensitive spot just below the back of her ear, the one that makes her shudder with pleasure and goosebumps form on her arms and legs.My hands moved to her hair and to the buttons
Gavin’s POV“Judy’s friends are settled in the villa,” Taylor said as soon as we got back to the villa. He was standing at the entrance with the butler, Alex.My hand was still tucked in Judys, a slight blush on her cheeks that did something to my insides.“Great,” I said. “You can proceed on that o
I gave him a sad smile.“I think over time he will learn to forgive her,” I told him honestly. “It’s not something to rush, though. You just found out something devastating, and it’s going to take time. You need to sit with it for the time being, but also remember that there are people who love you
