Judy’s POV“Are you afraid of me?” I asked the boy, my eyes narrowed. “Or are you incapable of asking me for my name yourself?”Matthew looked stunned by my directness. I was never one to sugarcoat anything and clearly his former tutors were exactly that type. His cheeks turned a bright shade of pin
I am not threatening, I kept saying in my mind. I am a friend. Shadow sniffed my fingers, and I lowered my hand to the ground. Then, to everyone’s surprise, Shadow licked my fingertips and trotted the rest of the way over to me, allowing me to pet him. I smiled as my fingers ran through his soft fu
Judy’s POV“Adam, how could you just let anyone walk into my home? Is there no longer an order for this household? You also left her alone with my son. What were you thinking?”Matt had already gone over to his father, and I was standing there, my eyes glued to Gavin’s. I couldn’t believe that he wa
He handed me back the resume without saying a word to me, but his eyes scanned me briefly before he shifted his attention to his son. The atmosphere had grown tense, almost awkward. Matt was staring back and forth between me and his father, and I could see the questions lurking in his eyes.“And wha
Judy’s POVI watched Gavin’s Adam’s apple move slightly.I hadn’t realized how closely I was standing to him until he stood a bit straighter and tilted his head towards me. I swallowed the lump wedged in my throat and fought the strange urge to reach out and touch him.What was wrong with me lately?
“I wanted to see what she’d do,” he said with a shrug.“I’ve had enough of this!” Gavin growled. “You are grounded until I say otherwise.”“W…what?” Matt cried. “But… but I was just joking…”Tears filled Matt’s eyes, and I would be lying if I said I didn’t feel bad for the kid. I mean, it was only w
Judy’s POVI was stunned to see Ethan standing before me, next to Irene. My wolf instantly hid herself in the furthest part of my mind, closing herself off from even me.“Ethan?” Irene said again, touching his arm. He was busy glaring at me with dark eyes to notice that his fiancé was trying to get
He always told me that he wanted my gifts to be unexpected and that it’s not fun if I know what I’m getting. I eventually stopped asking him for the necklace in hopes that he would get it for me, but he never did. I assumed he just forgot.Seeing that he got that necklace for another woman caused me
Judy was about to learn that the hard way. …… Judy’s POV Everybody was staring at me in school. I tried hard to keep a low profile, but it was difficult when literally everybody and their mother saw the news. I was supposedly in a committed relationship with Gavin Landry, or so the article imp
Third Person POV Skyla stood shell-shocked by Gavin’s words. Had she heard him correctly? Was he confirming his relationship with Judy? She only thought that it was a fling. Nothing that Irene had said indicated that her father was in a serious relationship. Her cheeks were burning with heat as th
But seeming the filming was about to wrap up soon, I promised Chanse I would be there at least for the next couple of days. “Oh, hello, Daddy,” Irene said as she reached the bottom step. “You were gone all night. Everything okay?” I ran my fingers through my still-wet hair and nodded. “Yeah, I
Gavin’s POV I stepped out of the shower and grabbed a towel, wrapping it around my waste. By the time I left the bathroom, Judy wasn’t in bed anymore. I frowned at the messy bed and glanced around the room; my brows furrowed. I hadn’t even realized she was awake. I grabbed my clothes and quickly
Fury climbed its way through Irene’s chest as she clutched her phone tightly. She needed Judy to get out of that mansion; she was only doing this so she could weasel her way back into Ethan’s life and by the looks of things… it was working. She knew people in the media, and she knew if word got ou
Third Person POV Ethan went to Judy’s school late on Monday evening, knowing he was going to be getting out of class at any moment. He had stalked her over the weekend, but she hadn’t left the mansion in the last 2 days, nor had Gavin returned since he left Friday night. Ethan had no choice but to
He raised his brows at me. “I think she likes toying with me. I’m just sick of it. Even I deserve a little more respect than that; don’t you think?” “Well, yes, of course,” I agreed. “But maybe she doesn’t want to toy with you anymore. Perhaps that’s what she’s been wanting to tell you since las
Judy’s POV I was so embarrassed. I couldn’t believe I allowed myself to get drugged last night and then threw myself at Gavin. I hated that I could remember most of what happened last night. It was no wonder he left in the middle of the night. He could barely stand to look at me. I was surprised
“I love you, Irene,” he told her softly. “Remember that.” She looked hesitant for a moment, but she nodded and gave him a faint smile. He kissed her one last time before she left the car and went inside the villa. After she was gone, Ethan drove off in the direction of the Northern section of th
