**Chapter 848**<\/p>\n
**Judy\u2019s POV**<\/p>\n
In that moment, time seemed to freeze, and my heart felt as if it had come to a sudden halt within my chest. The weight of the world pressed down upon me as I realized that Daisy and Lila were asking to speak with me. I glanced up at Gavin, and the tension in his jaw was palpable. His eyes, usually so warm and inviting, now burned with a fierce mixture of protectiveness and anger that made my stomach twist.<\/p>\n
\u201cShe\u2019s not going anywhere,\u201d Gavin growled, his voice low and taut, a warning cloaked in authority.<\/p>\n
I swallowed hard, taking a cautious step back to fully meet his gaze. There was a resolute determination in his expression, a fierce commitment to safeguard our little family that sent a shiver of both comfort and anxiety through me.<\/p>\n
\u201cI should talk to them,\u201d I blurted out, the words tumbling from my lips before my mind could fully process their weight. \u201cGavin, if they\u2019re asking for me\u2026 it can\u2019t be a coincidence.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cIt doesn\u2019t matter,\u201d he snapped, the frustration in his tone cutting through the air like a knife. \u201cThey sent rogues to our house, Judy. To you. And now they expect you to just stroll over there alone? Absolutely not.\u201d<\/p>\n
I felt a surge of defiance rise within me. \u201cI won\u2019t go unprotected. You can come with me, and some of the gammas can join us too,\u201d I insisted, stepping closer, hoping to bridge the gap between our opposing views.<\/p>\n
\u201cI don\u2019t trust them,\u201d he replied, turning his full attention to me, his eyes narrowing with intensity. \u201cI can\u2019t\u2014\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cGavin\u2014\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cNo,\u201d he interrupted sharply, closing the distance between us, his hands gripping my arms. His touch was gentle yet laced with frustration, a mix of tenderness and urgency. \u201cYou\u2019re pregnant. Those rogues could have taken you, and now I\u2019m supposed to let you walk right into the jaws of the very people who endangered you?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThey sent rogues to get me; we don\u2019t know what they wanted,\u201d I countered, my eyes narrowing defiantly. \u201cFor all we know, they just want to talk.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd if they don\u2019t?\u201d he shot back, his gaze unwavering. \u201cWhat if they try to take you? What then? I can\u2019t lose you, Judy.\u201d<\/p>\n
In that moment, he pressed his forehead against mine, and I could feel the warmth radiating from him, the deep breath he took filling the space between us with an unspoken promise.<\/p>\n
I closed my eyes, inhaling his familiar scent, grounding myself in the comfort it brought.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou won\u2019t lose me,\u201d I assured him, my voice steady despite the turmoil inside. \u201cYou\u2019ll be there the entire time, and you\u2019ll protect me\u2026 I know you will. I trust you more than anyone else in this world, Gavin. You won\u2019t let anything happen to me. Please\u2026 I need to see what they want, and I have to get that Moon Gem from Lila. According to Cora, it belongs to me. I can\u2019t let it stay in her hands any longer.\u201d<\/p>\n
He stepped back, raking a hand through his hair in frustration, his expression a mix of anger and helplessness. I wanted to reach out and soothe him, but I stood my ground, knowing this was a battle we had to fight together. Taylor lingered awkwardly in the doorway, his gaze fixed on the floor, avoiding the intensity of our confrontation.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou\u2019re asking me to let you walk into danger\u2026 again,\u201d he murmured, his voice heavy with concern. \u201cYou shouldn\u2019t have to worry about things like this\u2026 we have a wedding to plan, a future to build. We\u2019re preparing for a baby\u2026 a Luna ceremony to hold.\u201d<\/p>\n
I reached up, gently cupping his cheek, urging him to look into my eyes.<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd we will plan for all of that,\u201d I whispered, my tone softening. \u201cI promise you\u2026 I will walk down that aisle and marry you. I will have your baby and stand by your side as your Luna. But I need what is rightfully mine\u2026 I need to understand where I came from. I want to hear what they have to say and uncover what they know.\u201d<\/p>\n
For a long, tense moment, we stood there, locked in a gaze that felt like it held the answers to the universe.<\/p>\n
Finally, he let out a slow breath, his lips brushing against mine in a gentle, fleeting kiss.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m coming with you,\u201d he declared, a hint of resolve creeping into his voice.<\/p>\n
\u201cI know,\u201d I replied without a moment\u2019s hesitation, relief washing over me.<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd so are some of the other gammas. You won\u2019t be alone with them, not even for a heartbeat.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI know,\u201d I reiterated, a smile breaking through the tension and tugging at the corners of my lips.<\/p>\n
After a moment of silent understanding, he nodded, the weight of his worry still evident in his posture.<\/p>\n
\u201cIf anything feels wrong, I\u2019m getting you out of there,\u201d he vowed, cradling my face in his warm hands. \u201cSwear to me that you won\u2019t take any unnecessary risks.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI promise,\u201d I said firmly, conviction ringing in my voice.<\/p>\n
He nodded again, a flicker of relief crossing his features, though the tension in his body remained.<\/p>\n
I grabbed my jacket from a nearby chair and made my way toward the door. Taylor stepped aside, allowing me to pass. Before we left, we checked in on Irene and Matt, who sat silently in Irene\u2019s bedroom, Erik leaning against the far wall, his expression a mask of despair. The air was thick with unspoken words; Irene\u2019s face was flushed, her gaze averted from Erik, who looked utterly miserable but resolute in his duty to protect them.<\/p>\n
Erik and Gavin exchanged a few terse words, explaining the situation. Although Erik voiced his concerns about us walking into the lion\u2019s den, he knew better than to challenge Gavin\u2019s resolve. Soon, we were stepping outside, my heart heavy in my chest, a mixture of dread and determination swirling within me.<\/p>\n
The world outside felt eerily quiet compared to the chaos that had transpired earlier; most of the rogues were either gone or lying lifeless on the ground. I forced myself to look away from the grim sight, pushing down the nausea that threatened to rise. As I walked through the villa yard, my mind spun with a whirlwind of thoughts, each one more tumultuous than the last.<\/p>\n
In the end, as we stepped into the unknown, I felt the weight of my choices settle over me like a heavy cloak. The tension between Gavin and me had woven a fragile thread of understanding, binding us together in a moment that was both terrifying and exhilarating. I could sense the protective instinct radiating from him, a fierce shield against the uncertainty that lay ahead. Yet, beneath that tension, there was an undeniable trust\u2014a promise that we would face whatever came our way together. My heart swelled with a fierce determination; I could not turn back now. I had to confront the shadows of my past, to reclaim what was rightfully mine, not just for myself but for the future we were building together.<\/p>\n
As we approached the meeting point, the air crackled with anticipation, and I could feel Gavin\u2019s presence beside me, a constant reminder that I was not alone. The stakes were high, and the fear of what lay ahead loomed large, but I clung to the hope that understanding would come from this confrontation. With every step, I reminded myself of the love that had built our kingdom from ashes, a love that still remembered the warmth of connection amidst the coldness of betrayal. Whatever awaited us, I was ready to face it, not just for the Moon Gem or the answers I sought, but for the life I envisioned with Gavin\u2014a life where love would always triumph over darkness.<\/p>\n
