“Yeah, I’m having a girl’s night with my best friend tonight, and I wanted to get something comfortable,” she said. “Maybe some new PJs?” It was a lie; Nan had plenty of Pjs and comfy clothes to wear tonight, but she needed an excuse as to why she was back so soon. Becky nodded, not picking up on
“If you have any cute guy friends, send them my way, I could use a variety myself,” she teased. Nan let out a laugh and nodded. “I’ll keep that in mind.” Nan was relieved that Becky decided not to go out with her mate again, but who was this other woman in his life that caused him to be so dis
Judy’s POV I took another sip of my wine, feeling it relax my mind and body. I kept glancing at my phone periodically, thinking there would be a missed call or a new message. But there wasn’t. I hated the jab of disappointment I would feel in my chest every time I saw that there was no message. I
“Nan…” I whispered. “What is it?” “I’m so sorry…” she said hoarsely as she pulled her eyes away from me to look at the ground. “But I can’t stay here…” “Wait what?” I asked, my brows raising. “Why not? What’s wrong? Please, talk to me…” She shook her head; she was trying hard to keep the tears
Judy’s POV “A…are you serious right now??” Harper asked, taken aback by Chester’s words. He nodded and sighed. “Yes, Harper. I’m sorry,” he murmured, and then he walked past her and back inside. Harper stood frozen, her face red with anger and hurt all at the same time. My heart hurt for her;
Gavin: Sorry I couldn’t come over last night. I’d like to see you tonight though. Dinner tonight? I couldn’t help the smile that lit up my face. I pressed the reply button and typed out my own message. Me: That sounds great! I pressed send and then I quickly got out of bed. I didn’t bother cha
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
“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
“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.
