Judy’s POV If she was holding her coffee cup when I blurted out the news, she most certainly would have dropped it. Her jaw was practically on the ground as she stared at me, her eyes wide with alarm. I hated that I kept this part of my life from her for so long, but now I was ready to tell her ev
“I would never do that, Judy,” she told me. “You can trust me.” I knew she was right and that I could trust her, so I relaxed in my seat. It felt good to talk about this and get this whole thing out. I was glad that I had Nan in my corner and that I could confide in her in this kind of thing now.
Third Person POV Irene was in the kitchen grabbing a bite to eat when she heard giggling in the parlor. She frowned and started towards the entryway. It’s been quiet around here for the past week, but that was mainly because Matt had been in the hospital. Even when he returned though, the villa ap
Anger filled Irene but she tried hard to keep her temper under control while she was in the presence of her father. “So, Judy did nothing wrong. Therefore, she gets to keep her job. I appreciate your concern, and I’m glad you care for your brother, but lay off Judy, okay?” He asked her firmly, rai
Judy’s POV “He specifically said he doesn’t want Judy Montague to return to his office. Any further questions?” The receptionist said in a snarky tone. My blood went cold from her words, and I stared at her startled. Had Gavin really told the receptionist to not let me back at his office? My hea
I smirked at him as I stepped closer to him, closing the space between us. “Then, perhaps we should take advantage of this time together?” I suggested. I wrapped my arms around him, pressing my body close to his. I could feel the stiffness in his pants, and it turned me on; I liked the effect th
Gavin’s POV Skyla Sinclair definitely had some timing. Getting dressed and watching Judy get dressed as well was difficult, especially when I wasn’t able to finish, but there would be time for that later. We would continue where we left off as soon as my workday was done, and I was able to get h
“We really appreciate this, Alpha,” Chanse said thoughtfully. I nodded. “How about I take you and the crew out and I can show you around for the day?” I suggested. “Unless you’re in a rush to get started, then I’ll leave you be.” “I wasn’t planning on starting until tomorrow, so a tour would b
“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
