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
Judy’s POVAll three of them stared at me. Irene and Matt with smiles on their faces and Gavin with a frown.I stood in front of them with my eyes wide and my heart thudding violently in my chest. I wasn’t sure what to say as an excuse to get out of this. There was no way I was going to have dinner
Gavin sat down at the table, and I hesitantly sat beside him.One maid scurried into the room holding a bottle of wine and another bottle of apple juice. She immediately poured Irene a glass of wine and Matt a glass of apple juice. She walked around the table towards Gavin and filled his glass with
Third Person POVLater in the evening, Irene sat curled up on the couch, staring at her phone. Ethan told her that he would call at 8 pm and now it was 9:30 pm. She tried calling him a couple of times about a half hour ago, but he didn’t answer. She texted him as well, but her messages were left unr
“Why are you asking?” He countered; his eyes narrowed in her direction.She sucked her bottom lip into her mouth and nibbled on it gently as she thought about how to answer his question.Truth be told, she wasn’t sure why she wanted to know. Maybe to prove that the mate bond doesn’t matter. She’s no
Judy’s POVThe house was quiet when I returned home after having dinner at Gavin’s house. It was always quiet these days.The house felt so empty with my mother hiding away in her room, not a sound to be made. I put my coat on the hook and made my way upstairs. I paused outside of her bedroom door w
I saw Gavins’ nostrils flaring but he didn’t say anything in response. He continued to glare at Lukas until he was even more uncomfortable than he was a moment ago.“I really should go,” he said. “It was nice to officially meet you, Alpha.”Lukas was smart not to give me another hug or say anything
Judy’s POVAs I walked Lukas to the living room door, he paused for a moment before we went into the front foyer.“Thank you again for helping me out, Judy,” he told me. “It’s hard moving to a different school, and you’ve made it a lot easier. I’m glad we can be friends.”I nodded and smiled at him.
“I’m sorry to hear that,” he said thoughtfully. “It was nice of Gavin to let you stay in his mansion while all that got sorted though. I nodded, a small smile tugging at my lips.“Yeah, it was nice of him,” I said softly. “He’s always been kind like that… at least to me.”“As far as Lycan’s go, my
Judy’s POVOver the course of the next couple of days, I hadn’t heard much of Gavin. Matt had been away on a school trip, so I didn’t need to go to the Villa for tutoring. I preoccupied my time with Lukas Merryweather and tutoring him. He was actually a pretty nice guy. He was really funny and intel
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?
