It wasn’t irrational for her to fear that, because that’s exactly what I would have done. Talking to Cassie was the last thing I wanted to do, even now. But it was necessary, so she knew she had no chance of ever seeing her son again.“I want to see my son…” she finally said, her voice coming out so
Third Person POVIrene had never seen her father so angry at her before. For a second, she feared that he might actually banish her. She was surprised when he didn’t. She nearly got Matt killed and then tried to frame one person while unintentionally framing another. Or at least caused someone to ge
Irene nodded.“I know what I did was wrong… I’m so sorry…”“Why did you do it? Why did you try to kill me?”“I wasn’t trying to kill you,” Irene nearly shouted as she stood to her feet. “I promise, Matt. My intention wasn’t to kill you. It was to get rid of Judy. I wanted to frame her because I was
Judy’s POV“We have to get him outside,” Gavin said, his face twisted with concern as he stared down at Matt.Matt was about to shift into his wolf for the first time, and he wasn’t even 8 years old yet. No wolf had ever surfaced before the age of 18, so this was something neither of us expected to
As we pulled up to the mansion, I frowned when I saw an unfamiliar car parked out front.“Were you expecting someone?” Irene asked, also noticing the car.“No, I don’t think so,” I murmur as I take off my seatbelt and slide out of the car.We walked to the front door and pushed it open; I immediatel
Gavin’s POVBy the time we returned to the villa, the sun was already setting. We had been running and hunting in wolf form for the last several hours. Judy’s scent had faded long ago, so I knew she had left already. Matt was trailing behind me as we broke through the clearing; being in wolf form, I
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
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
“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
