Chapter 0006
Judy’s POV
I snapped a look at Gavin, shocked that he knew Ethan was my ex–fiancé. He really has done his research on me. Initially, I
thought he just looked up my name, but he knew more information than I was prepared for.
“How did you know that he was my ex–fiancé?” |
“There’s very little I don’t know,” he answered casually. “Like the fact that Ethan, who is my daughter’s current fiancé, was your
fated mate.”
I took a sharp breath from his bold statement and felt my cheeks warming.
“Am I wrong?” He then asked; telling from his tone, I knew that he knew he wasn’t wrong. I shook my head and looked away
from him; unable to hide the embarrassment off my face. This was the one thing I didn’t want him to know about. “Regardless of
what happened in the past, Irene and Ethan are to be married soon. and I hope everything goes smoothly for her sake.”
I bit my lip, not wanting to discuss this any further. I hope he will get the hint based on my silence.
I kept my gaze out the window and my frown deepened when we reached the borders. of my pack. I hadn’t told him where I
lived, but the driver was heading in the direction of my parents‘ house. My heart hammered against my chest; was there anything
this man didn’t find out?
I found myself looking at him; he was staring out the window, his eyes fixated on the sight before him. His strong jawline looked
tense, and his full lips were pressed in a thin line. Memories of the other night invaded my mind, and I thought about how his lips
felt against mine. The sweetness and the softness of them, yet he kissed me with so much passion and desire.
Instinctively, my fingers reached up to the nape of my neck and touched the spot where he sucked and kissed. The hickey that
Ethan had seen and lost his temper over. My face warmed from the marking Gavin left on my flesh.
“If you are done staring at me, you can get out now,” Gavin’s voice broke me from my thoughts.
I blinked a few times and looked out the window; I realized we were outside of my

parents‘ house.
“Oh,” I breathed, unsure what to say having been caught staring at him. I was embarrassed, and I just wanted to get away from
him as fast as I could.
I quickly unfastened my seatbelt and shouldered my purse before opening the car door.
“Uh, thank you for the ride,” I told him lamely.
He gave me a curt nod. As I slid out of the car, I felt his hand wrap around my wrist, halting me.
“Judy,” he said, his voice filled with authority. The sound of my name on his lips made warm chills course through my body. I
paused and met his gaze, holding my breath as I did so.
“Yes?” I asked, my voice coming out almost breathy.
His grip loosened around my wrist as he said, “We won’t be meeting again; understood?‘
And just like that, it felt like someone stabbed me in the chest. I was stunned by his remark and hurt. I swallowed the lump in my
throat and gave him a curt nod.
He released my wrist, and I immediately felt cold from the lack of contact. It was a strange feeling to have considering we only
made out once and barely had a proper conversation, but I felt the absence of his touch as if I had just taken off a coat in the
middle of a winter storm.
I didn’t say anything more as I got out of the car. The door shut after me and I could. no longer see Gavin behind the tinted
windows, but I knew his eyes were on me. I turned and hurried towards the house, getting my keys out of my purse in the
process.
The lights were off, so I knew my mother was either sleeping, or she went out.
I unlocked the door and pushed it open, pausing when I felt Gavin’s gaze still on me. I realized the car was still in the front of the
house. I turned back slightly and gave the car an awkward wave before stepping into the house, shutting the door behind
1. me.
A few seconds later, I heard the car driving off.
I let out the breath I didn’t know I was holding.

I went upstairs and into my room so I could change clothes; I was done with this uniform. I didn’t want to do a degrading job and
lose my self–respect only to gain money. I was better than that. I needed to focus on my studies so that I could graduate and
become a Gamma. I already sent a ton of applications elsewhere that could help me with my career goals.
Hopefully, I’ll hear back from them soon.
I took my phone out of my bag so I could text Nan that I made it home okay and to not expect me back at work anytime soon.
There was no way I was going to return to that place after what happened tonight. I made a mental note to apologize to the
manager as well.
