Judy’s POV“Irene,” I greeted, thankful that I sounded stronger than I felt. “I wasn’t expecting to see you here.”“Oh, I was just getting some stuff for my upcoming wedding,” she said, holding up her shopping bag. She glanced at Nan. “And who’s this?”I swallowed the lump in my throat; the last thi
Nan had a good idea during dinner to maybe go and see my father in prison; perhaps he could give me some insight on how to handle his mate. I wasn’t sure if that was something I was ready for. But after I got out of school the next day, I decided to give it a shot and see if I could speak with my fa
Judy’s POVThere was clear sadness in my father’s eyes as he watched me plead for my mother. I knew it was breaking his heart that he couldn’t be there with her to hold and comfort her. He used to tell me stories about the first time he ever saw her and how in love he was. He knew right away that sh
She put her seatbelt on, and I did the same. Then, she put the car in drive and drove off toward Gavin’s Villa.“I’m sorry if my brother is too much,” she said after a beat of silence. “He’s chased off every tutor he’s ever had. I’m not sure what’s wrong with that boy.”“He seems great to me,” I tol
Judy’s POV“Matthew! What have you done??” I heard Irene shrieking from the back porch steps. I hadn’t even known she was there, and I wondered how long she had been watching us for.I watched as Matt’s face turned pale and his eyes grew misty with unshed tears.“I’m so sorry, Judy,” he said, his bo
I knew she was right.It took a few more minutes, but eventually, Irene found a blouse along with a skirt. I frowned at the skirt and raised my eyebrows at her.“My pants are fine,” I told her, pointing to my pants.“Yeah, but this blouse requires this skirt,” she told me. “Trust me, I know fashion.
Gavin’s POV“I picked up the pink gems you requested,” Beta Taylor said as I walked into the villa. He held out a long black case to me and I took it without hesitation. I opened it and smiled at the pretty string of pink gems. This would look great on the mirror in Irene’s new car. She was going to
She opened it with eagerness and when she saw the pink gems inside, she gasped loudly, her eyes lighting up with excitement and a large smile spreading across her glossy lips.“Oh, Dad!” She gasped as she wrapped her arms around me, hugging me tightly. “I love it! Thank you so much.”She pulled away
“Not bad for a girl,” I heard a voice behind me. I turned around to see Theo approaching me. He had scratches on his own body, but for the most part, he was barely injured. He had sweat along his bare chest and down his torso. He had a towel wrapped around his neck, collecting sweat. He gave me
Judy’s POV Sharp nails sliced through the flesh of my cheek, making me wince as a trail of blood trickled down my cheek. I looked up to see that girl from the bathroom, Alpha Levi’s apparent daughter, standing over me with a furious look in her eyes. I let out a low growl anger flashed in my own
As the announcers went over the rules on the loudspeaker, I listened earnestly. We were not allowed to kill anyone during these matches. The only fight to the death was at the finale but until then, we had to be careful not to kill anyone or we’ll be disqualified. The first round was a free-for-al
Judy’s POV “Are you really not going to tell me why you came home so late last night? No way did that dinner end at 2 am,” Nan said, folding her arms across her chest as she watched me rummage through my clothes, trying to find the workout outfit I planned to wear for the competition. “Nope,” I t
I ran my lips across her cleavage and then I stuck my tongue out to coat her beautiful pink nipples. She gasped at the feeling, and I wanted to take it a step further and nibble on them. I bit one of her nipples, tugging it into my mouth and making her whimper. But it didn’t seem like she was in pai
Gavin’s POV I didn’t bother returning to the dinner. I didn’t need to deal with Levi and his shit. He made me lose my cool in front of everybody and now they were going to see me as a monster. That wasn’t something I wanted to deal with right now. During the dinner, I sent a text to Beta Taylor,
We remained like that for a moment longer; both silent and breathing in one another. My body trembled from the aftershock of pleasure that coursed through me. He slowly pulled out of me, making me whimper from the loss of him. He unpinned me and I slid down the wall, my body still trembling. He di
Judy’s POV Gavin kissed me gently, like his resolve was starting to break. Part of me didn’t want it to break though. I liked this side of him… I liked that he was jealous of me. I ran my fingers up the inside of his shirt, allowing my palms to brush across his smooth abs. He parted his lips as h
I caught wind of a couple of girls speaking at the table next to mine. I took note of how the girls interacted with one another. The way one of them had her leg bouncing and the other kept tapping her fingers on the table. Every little detail mattered because it could help when it counted the more.
