Adam narrowed his eyes. “It’s kind of short notice, don’t you think?” He asked, raising his brows. I folded my arms across my chest. “I didn’t really have a lot of notice,” I told him. “But this kind of a big deal. I can’t pass up the opportunity.” After a brief pause, Adam nodded. “I’ll l
Judy’s POV I was stunned by her words and I slowly turned to look at her. She was looking anywhere but at me. Her hands fidgeted with the ends of her blouse and her breathing was heavier than usual. “What?” I asked her, narrowing my eyes. “I think he’s cheating on me,” she repeated, her tone b
Every shifter in the world watched these competitions and I was nervous that I would be one of the ones they watched. I had to admit, I was excited to be getting away for a few weeks and even more excited to be participating in this competition. I was also incredibly nervous, which came to no surp
I had no idea what to do at that moment; I was helpless, and all my Gamma training had gone out the window. “What happened?” Gavin asked as he rushed towards us. I hadn’t even known he was home. He must have heard the commotion from inside. He was by Matt’s side before I could blink. He ripped o
Gavin’s POV “Why are you avoiding going home?” Taylor asked, sitting in the seat in front of my desk. “Why do you think?” I asked, narrowing my eyes at my Beta. He shrugged. “It’s been over a week, and you are barely there,” Taylor said. “Is it because of Judy?” I furrowed my brows. “Wha
I was seeing fucking red! Who had attacked my nephew? My first thought was Levi; had he somehow gotten access to my villa? I ran towards him and fell to the ground beside him; I didn’t think I just acted. It was a flesh wound; after a quick examination of the arrow, I knew it would be safe to
She nodded and stared down at her hands, tugging her fingers nervously. I knew it was now or never; I needed to ask her the question weighing on my mind. “What exactly did you see earlier, Irene?” I asked. “You said you saw Judy shooting him?” She nodded and turned to face me. “She did it on p
Judy’s POV “So, are you ever going to tell me what happened?” Nan asked, eyeing me carefully from across the room. I was helping her finish packing and then we were heading straight to the airport. It was so early, the sun hadn’t even woken yet. I finished packing my things last night and then w
“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
