“It’s beautiful,” she breathed, her eyes shining as she took me in.I glanced down at the dress shyly.“You don’t think it’s too much?” I asked her.“Oh, goddess no!” she said, waving off my concern. “Not for the Gala. Come on, you must show Irene.”She opened the dressing room door, and I stepped o
Judy’s POV“You know your father and I have a long history,” Daisy said, giving an awkward chuckle.Irene nodded thoughtfully.“Yes, his fated mate, my mother, was your sister,” Irene replied. “Unfortunately, my father isn’t on the market for dating at the moment.”Daisy pressed her red lips in a th
She knew her father was smart enough to see through Daisy though, so she tried not to stress too hard.“How do I look?” Walter asked as he leaned against the doorframe of Irene’s bedroom. She turned to look at him and her face lit up. He was so handsome in his suit and the silver mask with features
Judy’s POVThe Gala was just as beautiful as I imagined; it was also incredibly crowded. The moment our limo pulled up to the front entrance where everyone was lined up to get inside, the paparazzi were all over us. Flashes of light nearly blinded me, and Walter had to take my hand and guide me thro
When I didn’t say anything in return, Walter got the hint and walked around me to rejoin Judy and the others. I stood frozen, silently fuming. Then, I felt a hand on the back of my shoulder. I turned to see Daisy standing behind me with a soft smile on her lips. She had a golden shimmering dress tha
Judy’s POV This kiss was like no other; my heart was racing in my chest. I never thought Walter could kiss like this, but here I was, practically floating in his arms while his lips conquered mine. Yet, the kiss was so familiar… it was almost like I was kissing Gavin. Why was I thinking about Ga
“Walter?” I asked after a long pause. He blinked a few times and cleared his throat, meeting my eyes, he gave me a boyish smile. “I like you, Judy,” he blurted out, making me raise my brows. “I really like you. I think I could potentially fall in love with you.” My heart sank in my chest; any
Judy’s POV I could feel my cheek swelling from the force and the cut in my lip dripping with blood. The moment he saw the blood on my face, I could see the horror in his eyes. He released me quickly and stepped back, holding up his hands. The motion of him holding up his hands though caused me t
“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
Judy’s POV“What?” Gavin asked, his eyes dark and brewing as he stared down at Matt. “What are you talking about?”“She told me it was she who put the peanut butter in my sandwich…” Matt murmured. “She tried to kill me and everybody knew about it… right?”My heart shattered at his accusatory words.
“I need you to look into Samantha, the maid in the mansion,” he said into the phone; I assumed he was speaking to Beta Taylor. “I want a full report on everything she does. In the meantime, I’m having Judy stay in the villa, so go there and pack some of her things to bring to the Villa.”My heart sk
Judy’s POV“What do you mean she’s working against your family? I know she’s been talking to Ethan behind your back, but does that mean she’s working with him?” Gavin asked, his voice being reasonable.When Nan sent me that photo of Ethan and Sammy talking in the coffee shop, I showed it to Gavin ar
Matt was out cold, completely oblivious of anything that was happening.It didn’t take long for the doctor to walk in and take over for the nurses.“Alpha, I came as soon as I heard,” Dr. Eliza Pierce, Taylor’s mate, walked into the room with a worried expression on her face. “Is it true that he shi
