Chapter 136
Judys POV And who do you think you are ? Meredith asked , raising her brows at the man standing behind me .
This is a private party , Sophia chimed in .
You werent invited .
This is a pack party and you are not pack , Meredith added , rolling her eyes .
Hes handsome though .
Maybe he should stay, Kelsey purred , batting her lashes .
My stomach twisted and I fought the urge to growl at her .
I felt a warm hand on my shoulder , and my entire body seemed to immediately respond to the touch .
I felt myself relaxing and releasing a breath I hadnt known Iwas holding .
Are you okay ? Gavin asked me .
I glanced up at him and I could see the concern in his eyes .
I nodded at him , despite my heart feeling heavy in my chest .
Oh , please , Kelsey laughed .
Dont tell me you brought a callboy to the pack barbeque .
Thats a new low even for you .
You seriously had to hire someone to be your date this evening ? Meredith asked , shaking her head at me .
Thats truly disgusting .
Pardon ? Gavin asked , raising his brows .
Gavin was dressed casually , and it made my heart flutter .
He was barely recognizable without his suit , but he was still so handsome .
He also hadnt really been in the media as of late , so it didnt surprise me that he wasnt recognized at first .
I stayed silent , not sure what to say , watching as Ethans family made a fool out of themselves .
Gavin had a deep frown on his lips as he observed the cash family and their treatment of me .
I cant believe she even bothered to show up at all … but with a male prostitute ? Sophia asked , her lip curled in disgust .
You are a shameless woman ! Is this how you treat your guests ? Gavin asked , his brow raised to his hairline .
With this much disrespect .
Whos responsible for the wine on her clothes ? Its honestly fine , I said , grabbing onto his arm .
I think it was a mistake to come here .
I would like to leave now .
Not until I find out whos responsible for this , he said , his voice low and sending warmth to form on my cheeks She deserved it after what she said to me , Kelsey said , folding her arms across her chest .
I bet you didnt know that she was engaged to marry my brother .
He didnt want her , just like her birth parents didnt want her .
You are wasting your time with this one , sir .
Shes an abandoned orphan and nobody in their right mind would ever want her .
Im glad my brother came to his senses .
You should come to yours soon too .
Is that right ? He asked , his voice having a rather dangerous edge to it and I felt the chill run up my 1/2 25 BUNUS Chapter 0136 spine .
How much is she paying you to be here ? Kelsey continued to flirt .
Ill pay you double if you come with me right now .
Kelsey Cash ! Meredith scolded , but she had amusement in her eyes .
You are only 18 and this man is old enough to be your father .
You arent as shameless as Judy here .
You dont need to pay anyone to be your escort .
Oh , but mother .
Look at him , hes so hot , Kelsey pured .
He can do so much better than that bitch .
Her family is broke ; if she promised you any kind of money , I promise youll never see it .
But I can offer you cash up front .
And you believe I need your money ? Gavin asked .
Look , I dont know who you are .
But this a family matter , Meredith said , glaring at Gavin as if he was nothing but a bug on the bottom of her shoe .
So , if you dont mind , we were just having a discussion .
There is wine on her clothes ; what part of that was the discussion ? Gavin asked ; his aura growing darker .
I was surprised that Ethans family hadnt noticed it , but he was getting more dangerous by the second and I knew he was holding himself back , not wanting to make a scene .
She was disrespectful towards our family , Meredith said , narrowing her eyes at me .
It seems to me that you are the ones who are disrespectful , Gavin said through his teeth .
He was seconds away from bursting and I did not want to be here when it happened .
I tried to step away , but his grip on my shoulder tightened as he kept me in place in front of him .
Meredith pursed her lips and pointed her long finger at him while saying , Look , sir … I dont know you think you are but- Daddy ? Irene asked as she stepped around the women to stare up at her father with wide eyes .
W … what are you doing here ? The color in Merediths face drained as she stared at Irene and then up at Gavin .
Kelseys eyes were so big , I thought they were going to fall out of her head and Sophia sucked in a sharp breath , staggering backward .
All three of them were speechless and unsure of what to say.
I was invited , Gavin said , his eyes finding Irenes .
I thought I would pay some respect to my daughters future family members , but when I got here , I wasnt feeling very welcomed .
His eyes found Meredith again and she looked horrified .
I … Im so sorry , Meredith stammered .
Mr.
Landry , I- Its Alpha to you , he growled , his eyes glowing yellow as his wolf surged forward .
Only those I respect can speak my name , whether it is first or last .
And as of right now , I dont respect any of you .
