“Sorry,” she said softly.“No, it’s okay,” I tell her. “Let’s try on these clothes.”I didn’t think it was going to take as long as it did, but within the next couple of hours, we were finally finished with trying on the clothes she bought. She didn’t just buy a few nice outfits, she bought a ton. T
Judy’s POVThe manor was gorgeous; it was everything the magazines had said it was. It was in a secluded part of the Silver Crescent pack, so I never had the privilege of actually seeing it. In the beginning of the small forest, there was a pearl gate that led up the driveway and it was guarded by a
“Madam Landry, your son and his date have arrived,” Doug announced, stepping aside for us to enter.Donna Landry wore one of her gorgeous gowns and her jet-black hair was curled around her features, crowning her heart-shaped face. She was a gorgeous woman and you’d never be able to tell she had chil
Judy’s POVMy heart weighed heavy in my chest as I stared up at Gavin. He had a scowl on his face and he looked like he wanted to punch something at the thought of his sister. Gavin hadn’t told me much about her, but I knew she fell on hard times. She wasn’t like the rest of the Landry’s. She cut ti
Donna sighed, tossing aside what she was going to say a moment ago and then she stood to her feet.“I guess we should go eat then,” she said as she eyed us both carefully.Gavin stood; his hand still entwined with mine. It was almost like he was afraid of letting me go and I found my heart skipping
Judy’s POVMy blood went cold at the sound of her question. I stared at her and she stared back at me with a glint of humor in her eyes. I wanted to vomit at that moment; all the food I had just eaten resurfaced.I could feel Gavin’s agitation towards his mother, but he remained quiet, just glaring
“I don’t follow that kind of thing,” Donna said, rolling her eyes.“It was all over the news,” I countered.Something about her brushing it off after putting me down didn’t’ sit right with me. I was starting to suspect that maybe she knew about the competition, and she was just looking to put me dow
Gavin’s POVMy mother had crossed a line tonight. I knew tonight’s dinner was going to end up disastrous, but I had no idea she would end up attacking Judy so boldly like that. I was angry and replaying the evening in my head as I drove Judy home. I was well aware of how awkward the silence was that
“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
