Chapter 612
"Are you okay?" She asked me. "How was your talk with Alpha Landry?" Her pink lips were turned down into a frown.
"We didn't do much talking," I admitted, my cheeks flushing.
Her eyes grew impossibly large.
"Oh!" She gasped. "Well, I mean... that's good, right? That means you two are okay?"
I sighed as we walked together towards Sampson's office.
"I don't know, Lucy," I told her, worrying my bottom lip. "It's complicated, I guess." "Complicated how?"
"It's just that..." I paused, trying to gather my thoughts. "So much had happened between us in the past. So much left unsaid... a lot to talk about, and we didn't really get to talk at all. Now we have this baby growing inside me, and things are even more complicated. I'm a little whiplashed, too. Hours ago, I thought he was engaged to someone else and expecting her baby, but now I'm finding out it's not true. I don't know what's real and what's not..."
"It seems like it's obvious, don't you think?" She asked, raising her brows.
"What's obvious?" I asked.
"What you need to do," she answered. "Look, Judy. He's here... he wants you clearly. You should go be with him and raise your baby together. Your baby needs their father; it's not like you can keep him from his own kid to begin with. He's not engaged to anyone else, and from that blush on your cheeks, I'm assuming he rocked your world last night. So, you should be with him. Go back to Silver Crescent and live your life."
Tears filled my eyes.
"I'm scared, I admitted. "I've been hurt before... so badly..." I told herĭ didn't tell her about Ethan or anything about my past. But she could tell that something had happened from the look in my eyes.
She draped an arm around my shoulders and pulled me into a hug as we stopped outside of Sampson's office.
"Sometimes you have to take a leap of faith,” she told me softly. "Trust your heart."
"I've trusted my heart before," I muttered. "It left me heartbroken at the end. I don't know if Gavin is someone to put my faith in."
I sighed, still conflicted about what to do. I wanted to trust him, I truly did. But would he want me fully, and would he fully want this baby inside of me I couldn't allow my baby to feel an ounce of being unwanted... I didn't want Gavin to doubt me or our baby. I put my hands on my belly as if I could provide some kind of comfort to this fetus. I needed to protect this baby with my entire life.
The door to Sampson's office opened, and he stood before us, staring between the two of us.
"Judy," Sampson greeted. "I was just about to call for you. Come in, we should talk."
I nodded, giving Lucy one last hug before I stepped into his office.

"Sit down," he said, walking towards his desk. His expression was hard to read, and felta henous pit forming in my belly. I sat down in the chair in front of his desk while he sat in his desk chair. Visit Novelxo.org to read the latest chapter of this novel

For a long white, he didn't say anything. He assessed me; his eyes scanning my face as if he was om expecting me to start the conversation first.
