Chapter 132
Judys POV You agreed to do what ?? Gavin asked , folding his arms across his chest as he glared at me .
I sat on his bed , with my head down .
Why would you agree to go to that barbeque ? Because Irene asked , I told him .
Shes my friend , Gavin .
She needed me to be there … so Ill be there .
He sighed , running his fingers through his hair .
Let me go with you , he said after a moment of pause I stood to my feet and closed the gap between us , wrapping my arms around his neck I like that he wanted to go and protect me , but it wasnt a plausible solution .
It would only make a scene and reveal our special relationship .
And how would we explain that ? I asked him .
We would have to come up with an excuse as to why you are there defending me , Gavin .
I dont think its a good idea .
He sighed and wrapped his arms around my waist , pulling me close to him .
I was invited , you know .
Im invited every year , but I never attend , he murmured .
This surprised me .
I peeked up at him .
Ifv f you feel like you must attend , then attend .
But I want to prove to myself that I can handle this on my own without you intervening .
Plus , I doubt Irene wants your presence there .
This is supposed to be her moment .
You being there takes the attention away from her , I told him .
He nodded and pressed his forehead against mine .
Youre right .
I dont like it .
But youre right .
But if he gives you any issues- Ill call you , I assured him .
I stood on my toes and kissed his lips .
Mr.
Protective .
.
He rolled his eyes , but I could see a hint of a smile on his lips .
Thats me , he murmured .
Always the protector .
He deepened the kiss and then pulled me into his bed where we made love for most of the night before falling asleep .
Where have you been ? My mother asked as I walked down the steps of the house .
It was late morning , and I had gotten home a few hours ago from Gavins villa .
I managed to get a few more hours of sleep before waking up for the day .
I wanted to get here and act as if I had been here all night before my mother woke up , but apparently , she had noticed my absence .
I just woke up , I told her , rubbing the sleep out of my eyes .
You hadnt been home all night , she told me , folding her arms across her chest .
Dont think I didnt hear you coming home early this morning .
Youve been like this for weeks , Judy .
You stay out all night and return in the morning .
Π 12 Chapter 0132 My cheeks flushed at her words .
So , she had noticed .
I bit my lower lip and glanced at the ground .
She studied me for a moment before her eyes grew wide .
Are you seeing someone ? She asked .
What ? No , of course not .
Is it Ethan ? She suddenly asked , making my blood go cold .
I could see the hopefulness in her eyes .
Did you two reconcile ? No , Mom , I told her , bursting her bubble .
Ethans engaged to someone else … remember ? She sighed and rubbed her temples as if she were gaining a headache .
Well , I hoped seeming hes your fated mate and all that you both came to your senses .
But I guess thats not the case .
Anyway , we are going to the Cash family barbeque tonight , so just make sure you are on your best behavior .
I frowned at her and folded my arms across my chest .
Im not the one you should be worrying about , I told her .
She rolled her eyes .
Honesty , Judy .
Its an attitude like that that gets you in trouble , she murmured .
Im going to ask them for some help paying your fathers debt , so I need tonight to go well .
My mouth dropped open .
Mom , we dont need their money , I told her .
I already told you that Ill take care of it .
And I appreciate that , sweetie .
I truly do .
But your father cant stay another minute in that awful prison .
My wolf has been taking all the pain hes been feeling and my heart breaks for her .
We need our mate back and safe and my last hope right now is the Cash family .
They are rich enough that they could help us .
It doesnt hurt to ask His family isnt nice , I reminded her .
Theyve never treated our family kindly no matter how much you and Dad tried to suck up to them .
They looked at us like we were bottom of the barrel trash and not even worth polishing their shoes .
That isnt true , my mother told me .
His mother , Meredith , had always been kind to me and his grandmother as well .
They are friends , Judy .
They will help us if asked .
