Chapter 128
She was quiet for a moment as she took a sip of lier own coffee .
Theres nothing wrong with being friends .
I mean , lie has to understand that your fated mate left you for another woman only recently .
You are still heartbroken , and your wolf is healing , she told me .
You cant be too hard on yourself , and he cant be too hard on you .
I bit my lip and stared down at the brown liquid , my cheeks flushing at the memory .
Why do I feel like theres more to the story ? She suddenly asked , taking in my sour expression .
Because there is , I murmured , pecking up at her through my lashes .
He was so angry , Nan .
I was so scared , and I tried to get away .
Things were sald… and lines were crossed .
Lines were crossed ? She asked and I could feel her rising irritation .
Did he hurt you ?? I chewed the inside of my cheek , not able to say the words .
OH , my Goddess ! She nearly screamed .
He did , didnt he ?! Not so loud , Nan ! I pleaded , grabbing her arm to settle her down .
I dont want this to get out .
Im going to fucking kill that asshole ! She hissed and was seconds away from standing up , but I pulled her back down , not wanting her to make any stupid decisions .
Gavin is already dealing with it … She froze and stared at me with wide eyes .
Gavin ? Gavin Landry ? She asked .
I nodded .
He saw me walking last night and he pulled over to give me a ride … I told her .
It was half the truth b I wasnt going to tell her the entire story .
He figured out what happened , and he promised me that Walter wont hurt me again .
She raised her brows and then a smile tipped the corner of her lips .
Alpha Gavin Landry is protecting you ? She asked .
My cheeks blushed and I stared down at my hands .
Yes , I answered , not able to look her in the eyes .
Why do I feel like theres more to it- I have to get to my next class , I said quickly , jumping to my feet .
Thanks for the coffee .
I grabbed my bag and my coffee and hurried towards the doorway .
Okay , but we arent done with this conversation ! She shouted after me .
I waved at her without looking at her and hurried to my next class .
By the end of my last class of the day , I was covered in sweat and exhausted .
I was kind of relieved when Chapter 0120 I didnt run into Nan as I made my way to the front of the school .
Before I could grab my phone to call for an Uber , a car pulled up in front of me , making me freeze .
The back window rolled down and Gavin smirked at me .
Get in , he ordered .
I opened my mouth to protest , looking around to make sure no one was watching .
Dont make me beg , he murmured .
Get in the car .
My heart skipped a beat , but I did as he said and got into the car .
Before I could put my seatbelt on , was grabbing me , pulling me in , and his lips were covering mine in a sweet and passionate kiss .
he Third Person POV A couple of weeks had passed since the Gala and Irene had been a mess .
Ethan found it hard to maintain her .
I t believe he just left without saying a word to me , Irene pouted one night as she snuggled into bed with Ethan .
He literally left the country and said nothing ! Im sure it was because of an emergency , Ethan told her , sighing .
He will call you when hes ready .
Its been like that for weeks ; she would cry over her cousin leaving without a word and Ethan would attempt to comfort her .
Though , his mind wasnt truly in it .
His mind was with Judy .
Shes been different these last couple of weeks .
Ethan had noticed how she was practically glowing .
Whenever he spotted her , she was either with Gavin , or training with Matthew and Gavin would be sitting outside , watching them .
Ethan noticed the quick looks that Judy would give Gavin and the small blush that crept along her cheeks .
He noticed the smirk on Gavins lips whenever their eyes locked .
Sometimes Ethan would catch them speaking softly to one another but when they noticed him standing nearby , they would break apart and talk only about business .
It left Ethan feeling unsettled as he watched the two of them together .
Later that same evening , Ethan went to get Irene and take her out on a date to get her mind off Walters betrayal , but he froze when he saw Gavin and Judy in the corner just in front of the back doors .
It was clear she had just finished with training and was probably leaving .
He smiled down at her and Ethans heart fell into his stomach when he watched Gavin tuck a strand of hair behind Judys hair .
It was a small gesture , but it was still so intimate .
Had Judy truly moved on already ?
