Chapter 0140 Gavins POV The rage I felt when I saw Ethans family tormenting Judy was beyond what I had ever felt in my life .<\/p>\n
I was honestly surprised that I was able to control myself .<\/p>\n
Staying at this barbeque wasnt something I wanted to do , but Judy pleaded with me to let it go for right now and I wasnt going to leave without her .<\/p>\n
I watched her mingling with a few girls her age , and she looked rather uncomfortable .<\/p>\n
Her cheeks turned a bright shade of pink , I used my Lycan hearing to listen to their conversation , completely ignoring what Raymond Cash was saying on the other side of me .<\/p>\n
It must be really embarrassing for you to watch your fated mate with another she wolf , one of the girls said .<\/p>\n
Im surprised you bothered showing up , the other said .<\/p>\n
I let out a small growl , which seemed to startle the table I was sitting at .<\/p>\n
It brought me back to the current moment and I saw eyes on me .<\/p>\n
I cleared my throat and forced a smile .<\/p>\n
I apologize , I said as I stood to my feet .<\/p>\n
If youll excuse me for a minute .<\/p>\n
I wasnt sure what I was going to do , but I couldnt sit there , and watch Judy be embarrassed over what these pointless she wolves were saying to her .<\/p>\n
I walked towards them as they continued their conversation and without thinking , I draped an arm around Judys shoulders .<\/p>\n
Ladies , I said to them , making their jaw drop .<\/p>\n
If you dont mind , Im going to steal Miss Montague .<\/p>\n
A\u2026 Alpha Gavin Landry ? One of them stammered , her eyes large as she stared up at me .<\/p>\n
I \u2026 Its an honor \u2026 I stared at her with indifference , without replying .<\/p>\n
The other girl was looking between Judy and me , her eyes quizzical .<\/p>\n
I wasnt aware you and Judy knew one another , she pointed out , her brows raised .<\/p>\n
Judy went to speak , but I cut her off .<\/p>\n
My relationship with Miss Montague isnt your concern , I told her .<\/p>\n
If youll excuse us .<\/p>\n
I didnt wait for Judy to argue , I pulled her along with me and went back towards the table I was seated at .<\/p>\n
She gawked at me , her cheeks flushed red .<\/p>\n
I could have handled that , she said , staring at the ground as we walked .<\/p>\n
You shouldnt have to , I murmured .<\/p>\n
We sat at the table , and I slid a plate of food in her direction .<\/p>\n
She began to nibble without speaking a word .<\/p>\n
Is everything okay ? Raymond asked , looking at Judy and then back at me .<\/p>\n
I nodded .<\/p>\n
As a Lycan , Im required to notice everything that goes on around me , I explained .noveldrama<\/p>\n
I could hear those girls being disrespectful , so I went over to offer my assistance .<\/p>\n
I apologize , Alpha .<\/p>\n
This is not the impression I wanted you to have for your first time in my home .<\/p>\n
I assure you , its not always like this .<\/p>\n
I nodded as I took a sip of my wine .<\/p>\n
If my daughter is going to be married into this family , Ill need to establish some trust between us .<\/p>\n
If I cant trust you with packmates , how can I trust you with my daughter ? I asked , narrowing my eyes at him .<\/p>\n
You can trust us , he assured me .<\/p>\n
I was honestly surprised that I was able to control myself .<\/p>\n

I will prove that to you , Alpha .<\/p>\n
Id like to see you try , I murmured .<\/p>\n
We wont let you down , Raymond said confidently .<\/p>\n
I nodded .<\/p>\n
We continued to talk for the next hour and soon , people started to leave the party .<\/p>\n
Im going to take off , Judys mother said to her .<\/p>\n
Are you coming home with me ? Judy glanced in my direction briefly before looking at her mother .<\/p>\n
I have to work tonight .<\/p>\n
Ill just catch an Uber , she told her .<\/p>\n
Her mother nodded and then hugged her .<\/p>\n
Think about what we talked about earlier , she whispered to Judy .<\/p>\n
We will talk more about it later .<\/p>\n
I wondered what it was that they spoke about , but I knew it wasnt my business .<\/p>\n
Judy looked uneasy though , but she nodded and watched as her mother left .<\/p>\n
I couldnt help but notice Judy staring after her , seeming a bit lost in thought .<\/p>\n
I knew this was my queue to get her out of there ; shed had enough torture for one day .<\/p>\n
I should be going too , I said , standing to my feet .<\/p>\n
I glanced at Judy .<\/p>\n
Let me give you a ride .<\/p>\n
She looked as if she was about to protest , but then she thought better of it and gave me a short nod .<\/p>\n
Thank you , she said softly .<\/p>\n
You arent going home with your mother ? Meredith asked with her brows raised .<\/p>\n
Judy shook her head .<\/p>\n
I have to go to work , she explained .<\/p>\n
Oh , I wasnt aware you were working , Meredith said with a frown .<\/p>\n
And what is it you do ? Im a tutor , she blurted .<\/p>\n
I tutor a child in Alpha Landrys pack .<\/p>\n
Which is why hes going to give me a ride .<\/p>\n
Meredith looked at me for a moment and then back at Judy before nodding ; she didnt look completely convinced , but it wasnt on us to convince her of anything .<\/p>\n
\u05e0\u05d9 Chapter 0140 Lets go , I urged Judy as I started to walk away .<\/p>\n
Thank you for coming , Alpha .<\/p>\n
It was a pleasure to meet you , Meredith said as she hurried over to me .<\/p>\n
I wish I could say the same , I murmured , shocking her .<\/p>\n
