Chapter 891\u00a0<\/p>\n
Judy\u2019s POV\u00a0<\/p>\n
I felt sick to my stomach as the plane descended. It meant that we were almost home\u2026 Nan called just before the plane took off in Jeremy\u2019s territory to tell me that there were a large number of protesters outside the villa, led by Olivia and some of her friends. (1\u00a0<\/p>\n
My stomach knotted at the thought of them protesting me. Matt and Irene were at the villa as well, so they had to deal with all of this. The last thing I wanted was for this to affect Gavin and his family.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Gavin reached over and took hold of my hand, giving it a gentle squeeze.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cDon\u2019t overthink it,\u201d he tells me softly. \u201cWe will figure this out.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThey are protesting me in front of your home, Gavin. That\u2019s not okay,\u201d I say to him, hating that tears were starting to fill my eyes.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He wrapped an arm around my shoulders and pulled me into him, practically sitting me on his lap.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s your home too,\u201d he said softly, placing a soft kiss on the nape of my neck, causing a shiver to run through my entire body. \u201cAnd if they are disrespecting you, it means they are disrespecting me as well. That\u2019s not okay with me.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
I snuggled into him, loving how protective he was of me, but I couldn\u2019t help but feel guilty as well.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cIf I were better\u2026\u201d I started to say, but he silenced me by pressing his lips to mine.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cYou are perfect,\u201d he whispered against my mouth. \u201cI don\u2019t want you to think otherwise, got it?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
I nodded, though the knot continued to form in the pit of my belly. I was scared of what we were about to walk into. I wasn\u2019t sure what we were going to do.\u00a0<\/p>\n
When we finally landed, the gammas kept us on the plane while they assessed the area and deemed it safe. Then Taylor met us in a car, and we got into the vehicle without being detected. I didn\u2019t like having to hide like this, and I didn\u2019t like forcing Gavin to hide with me.\u00a0<\/p>\n
But he was stuck to my side like my personal bodyguard, and I\u2019d be lying if I said I didn\u2019t like him being near me.\u00a0<\/p>\n
I rested against him, his arms still fully around me like a vice, as if he was afraid I might slip away at any\u00a0<\/p>\n
moment.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Taylor slipped into the driver\u2019s seat and let out a breath as he looked at Gavin through the rearview mirror.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s a large number of protesters,\u201d Taylor warned, his eyes narrowed. \u201cMostly women.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cOlivia is leading it?\u201d Gavin asked for clarification.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Taylor let out a breath.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cIt was,\u201d Taylor said. \u201cBut now Lila\u2019s there, and it seems like she took over the protest.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat? \u201cI asked, sitting up straight. \u201cLila is there?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

He nodded and then put the car into drive.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI don\u2019t think it\u2019s safe for you to stay at the villa. I got in contact with the Montagues, and they agreed that you can stay with them for a few days while we sort through everything. Get the pack back in order.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m not letting my future Luna stay anywhere besides with me. We\u2019ll go with her,\u201d Gavin said, tightening his hold on me.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI don\u2019t want to make you do that,\u201d I said, shaking my head.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWe are a team now,\u201d he said, placing a hand over my protruding belly. \u201cWe are a family, and we go together\u2026as a family. Irene and Matt would agree as well.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI need to break the curse for Irene so she can find her true mate,\u201d I said, tears filling my eyes. \u201cI can\u2019t deal with\u00a0<\/p>\n
all these distractions.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
These damn pregnancy hormones were making me way too emotional. I hated that I couldn\u2019t stop crying and that this was hurting me more than I\u2019d like to admit. Gavin was able to read me well, though, and seemed to know what I needed. He pressed his lips to the side of my face and held me close so I could feel the rhythm of his heartbeat.\u00a0<\/p>\n
It was calming to both my wolf and me; she just wanted to bury herself inside of him and make a home there. He was my home. He was my safe place, and at that moment, I knew he was right. I couldn\u2019t spend a few nights away from home. I needed to be with him and his family, or I would never be able to handle any of this.\u00a0<\/p>\n
When we reached the villa, my mouth almost dropped at how many wolves were outside the villa gates. Taylor wasn\u2019t kidding; it had to be at least half the pack, primarily women. A couple of them in the front had megaphones, and most of them had signs reading something negative about me.\u00a0<\/p>\n
My heart ached at the sight, and I couldn\u2019t help but cry more tears that gathered in my eyes. Thankfully, the car was tinted so that nobody could see me. But they weren\u2019t stupid; they all knew I was in the car and that Gavin was most likely with me.\u00a0<\/p>\n
