“Is she really unworthy of the scholarship?”“Her silence speaks volumes!”“Why isn’t she defending herself??”My head lifted slightly as I passed Nan; her eyes were wide and filled with worry. She gave me a small and confident smile when our eyes locked and I felt a little lighter knowing she was i
Judy’s POVCarol’s face paled immediately upon hearing Gavin’s words.I could see the panic on her face as she tried to desperately come up with a story to justify her actions. I knew Carol was a lot of things, but a cheater?She had always worked so hard to get to where she was and a part of me sti
Nan only rolled her eyes and made her way over to me, wrapping her arms around me and pulling me in for a hug.“Are you okay?” She asked me, her voice low and for my ears alone.I nodded, feeling the burning sensation of unshed tears in the back of my eyes. I refused to let them fall right here thou
“I’ll take care of you tonight,” Alpha Edward told me softly. “Don't worry about a thing. You just focus on having fun and forget about that terrible ceremony.”I smiled, grateful to him.After my 3(rd) tequila shot, I could barely walk. As soon as I slid off the barstool, I nearly fell to the groun
Gavin’s POVHer scent of Lavender and fresh vanilla was intoxicating. Even drunk, she was oddly captivating. But she was young, almost my daughter’s age and I wasn’t someone who would take advantage of a young girl. There was a reason she decided to drink so much tonight; the last thing she needed w
I internally cursed as I walked to her front door. Her purse was on her shoulder, so I reached inside to grab a set of keys. I was surprised at how dark her house was; it was as if nobody else lived there, but I knew at least her mother should be home at this hour. It was ghostly quiet, and it gave
Judy’s POVWhat in the world happened last night? How did I end up back in my bed? I looked around with a frown, nothing seemed unchanged, but there was a lingering scent that caused my heart to beat rapidly in my chest.My head was killing me from all the alcohol I drank last night. Why the hell wo
“He put you to bed?” She asked, I could hear the smile in her voice.“In the most nonsexual way possible,” I told her. “I was still fully clothed.”“Ouch,” she murmured.“What am I going to do, Nan? I made a complete fool out of myself in front of a Lycan.”“You were drunk; you can’t blame yourself
They assumed I had sex with him last night, but other than that, I didn’t tell them about how different it felt, about how different I felt. Something about my relationship with Gavin had shifted these last few days and it was something I wanted to explore.But I wasn’t sure if it was something he w
Judy’s POVI straddled him, wrapping my arms and legs around his body as his lips found mine. His kiss was far beyond any kiss that he’d ever given me before. This was filled with something I couldn’t figure out. It was an emotion that couldn’t quite be named, yet it was filled with so much promise.
Without a word, I lifted her off the couch. She bit into her lip to keep from squealing from the sudden movement. I kept my arms around her small frame, pressing her firmly against my chest as I walked into her bedroom on the second floor.She didn’t argue with me and when I kicked the door shut beh
Judy’s POVNan walked back into the room with a dazed expression, and I narrowed my eyes. I knew she wanted to spy on Chester and Harper to find out what they were saying to one another. But the look she had on her face was a mix of fear, pain, and maybe a bit of happiness. I couldn’t really tell wh
“And now Chester is in there right now talking to her,” I concluded the story. Nan’s eyes remained on the hallway that Harper’s room was down. I could tell from the nervous way she was biting her lip that she was nervous.We were all pretty much thinking the same thing… what were they talking about?
Judy’s POVI was quick to react. Nan jumped out of her seat, and I jumped in front of her to keep Harper from hurting her. It wasn’t difficult to stop Harper’s attack because she was drunk and sloppy in her movements. She nearly fell over by the time she even remotely reached Nan.I had Harper pinne
“You should have seen the look on my ex’s face when I told him I was leaving,” Sammy said, shaking her head after her second glass of wine. “I thought he was going to start crying.”“Has he tried calling you?” Nan asked.Sammy shrugged.“I blocked his number so who knows.”We all chuckled.“What abo
Judy’s POV“Woah, this mansion is huge!” Sammy cooed as Beta Taylor pulled up to the mansion. On our way, he informed me that Gavin was giving me the night off and he would be arriving at the mansion shortly to get Sammy set up as the new maid.I wasn’t sure of the kind of background that Sammy grew
“Judy, Nan!”I heard a familiar voice saying from across the student lounge and when I looked, my eyes grew wide.“Holy shit, she’s actually here,” Nan breathed, her eyes fixed on Sammy who was walking towards us with a bright smile on her lips.“Sammy?” I asked once she finally approached.“It’s so
