I didn’t bother sticking around to hear any more of what they had to say; I was done for the evening and if I had to drag Judy out of there by force then I would. Thankfully, it didn’t come to that. Judy said her quick goodbyes, though most of them went unanswered, and then she hurried after me, kee
Third Person POV The look Ethan had on his face when Judy left the party with her father did not go unnoticed by Irene. There was a look of longing; almost like he was a lost child, and it made Irene’s heart ache. She bit her bottom lip, refusing to cry in front of Ethan’s family. She had already
She stood up from the bed, unable to truly rest. She walked over to his drawers and started to mindlessly rummage through them. There wasn’t anything in them besides some clothes that most likely no longer fit him. She sighed and went to his nightstand to rummage through that as well. There wasn’t
Third Person POV Ethan returned to his room later that night after saying goodnight to his family. He was planning on taking Irene home, but when he saw that she wasn’t there, he frowned. His room was completely empty. He grabbed his phone and checked his messages, seeing that he had a missed text
She wrapped her legs around his waist as he deepened the kiss. He nibbled on her bottom lip. “Let’s get out of here,” he murmured against her. She nodded and Ethan called one of his subordinates to come pick them up because he was far too drunk to drive. He took her back to his house and they ha
Judy’s POV For the last couple of days, the pain continued only at night. It would go on until the morning, but with Gavin holding me almost every night, it wasn’t as bad. I was able to get through it. It made no sense because I’ve noticed Irene around the mansion, she’s been avoiding me… ignoring
He sighed and shook his head. “Not even a little bit… but Irene… she’s fragile,” Gavin murmured, shaking his own head. “Taking Ethan away from her would destroy her and I worry about what she might do if that happens. She’s my daughter and I only care about her happiness. I just hope Ethan shapes
Gavin’s POV I was hesitant for a moment as I stood outside the closed door. This was ridiculous, I shouldn’t be this nervous. But I couldn’t get Judy’s words out of my head. Why would I want this for my own daughter? It was obvious Ethan wasn’t serious about his mating with her, so why should I al
I nodded and continued to watch the different sparring. Soon, it was my turn to spar with Bianca. As I said before, she’s big… which meant I could use my small form and limber body to tire her out before I went in for the attack. I’ve always been told to never make the same attacks twice. We had f
3 long classes later I finally had a small break before my final class of the day, which was my combat course. That was the course that was going to determine my entire future, and my heart was in my throat. I sat in the student lounge for the next hour, studying and doing homework from past classes
Judy’s POV Everybody knew about the rivalry between Levi Churchill and Gavin Landry. They were 2 out of 4 Lycan Chairmen in the world. A long time ago, all 4 of the Lycans used to rule over the werewolf territory together, but due to differences and some being more powerful than others, they decid
I knew she had an early morning class and would most likely be in the student lounge after her class. I arrived towards the end of that early morning class, so I’d be able to catch her before I had to get to my first class of the day. I walked into the student lounge and waited in our usual spot.
Judy’s POV I sat on my bed, my heart deep in my stomach and tears filling my eyes. Gavin didn’t need to speak for me to know exactly what he was about to say. I already knew it… we weren’t going out tonight. “Is everything okay?” I asked, my voice coming out hollow and unfamiliar. “I’m sorry,
She looked like she was about to ask me further questions about what I meant; I was hoping she wouldn’t though. I didn’t want to get into it and my family issues were not something to gossip about. She seemed to be able to read that on my face though because she closed her mouth and nodded. I let
Judy’s POV Gavin wanted to take me out tonight. He texted me to tell me to be ready by a certain time and I was more than eager to go out with him. After I left the kitchen this morning, I went straight to my room to take a long bath. I needed to clear my head and wash away all the negative though
“I don’t know if I’m serious about anything,” he blurted, and I could see the panic in his eyes. “I haven’t even thought about this long enough to know what I actually want. I never thought I’d find my mate, Judy. I never thought I even wanted a mate in the first place.” “Wait… what?” I asked, my
Judy’s POV Chester stared at me with a shocked expression, his mouth practically on the ground. I could see the horror in his eyes, and it made me look away from him again. I didn’t want him to feel bad for me, but I also wanted to be honest with him about everything. It seemed he was struggling w
