Filed to story: Gavin Landry and Judy Werewolf Story
I gasped at his words ; he was supposed to be someone I considered a mentor.
But it seemed he wanted me to get expelled from this school.
I could see the satisfaction on Carols face as she folded her arms across her chest and leaned back in her seat.
Its a serious accusation.
What do you have to say for yourself, Miss Judy? The dean asked, his brows raising to his hairline.
Before I begin this investigation, do you have anything youd like to say in your defense? I opened my mouth to speak, but no words came out.
You cant seriously be considering expelling her because she got into a luxury car, are you? A deep voice spoke from the doorway.
I didnt need to turn around to see who was standing there ; I could smell his incredible cologne, and my heart immediately skipped a beat upon hearing his deep tone.
The dean paled upon seeing who was standing at the entrance of his office, leaning against his doorframe Alpha Gavin, the dean said, bowing his head slightly, Gavin walked into the room ; a couple of his Gamma warriors remained at the doorway.
Its from my understanding that Miss Montague is an outstanding student and more than deserves this reward, Gavin said, narrowing his eyes.
However, I did get some inside intel that Miss Declaire had cheated on her last several tests by paying someone to take exams for her.
Judys POV
Carols face paled immediately upon hearing Gavins words I could see the panic on her face as she tried to desperately come up with a story to justify her actions.
I knew Carol was a lot of things, but a cheater? She had always worked so hard to get to where she was and a part of me still admired her for it despite the fact that we hadnt gotten along since middle school.
But now I was seeing her in a whole new light.
She cheated on pass them.her exams, forcing someone to take the tests for her so she would I didnt understand why though.
Carol was incredibly smart and more than capable of getting these exams done herself, and she still passed with flying colors.
So why would she have someone else take these exams for her? L.
I dont understand, the dean said, narrowing his eyes at Carol.
Is this true? N … no, she stammered, her nerves evident.
Its not true I swear ! She tried to explain.
A new presence appeared in the room, and I recognized him as Beta Taylor, I only met him briefly, but he seemed like a nice enough guy.
I have the reports you requested, he told Gavin, handing him a piece of paper..
Gavin looked over the paper, his eyes fixated on each word that passed his vision.
His lips were set in a hard line.
His expression was hard to read, and I wondered if this had anything to do with Carol and the accusations : He cleared his throat and stepped towards the desk ; without sparing me a look, he handed the dean the paper.
This is proof that Carol had been cheating, he stated simply.
How did she manage to ace this test with flying colors when she wasnt even in the class to take it? Its strange that she can be in two places at once, isnt it? Theres also proof of transaction along with the students names.
The deans brows furrowed in surprise.
L.its not what it looks like … she stammered nervously.
You can do further investigating, but thats what my Beta was able to find under such short notice, Gavin continued.
We hav have no tolerance for cheating, the dean said firmly as he glared at Carol.
One of her classes happens to be yours professor, Gavin said, readjusting his gaze to look at Professor Rodgers.
Are you saying that you never noticed she hadnt been attending class? Yet you still pass her.
The professor paled as he looked at Carol.
I realized that they were in this together and my lips press in a thin line.
I stared at the ground, unsure of what to say or what to do at this moment.
Things were too awkward, and I just wanted the ground to open and swallow Miss Judy, how about you head to the feast? I had my assistant send everyone there to begin the celebration, the dean said, his eyes remaining fixated on Carol ; bouncing between her and the Professor.
I wasnt sure my legs would work if I tried.
But as soon as I looked up at Gavin, he gave me a curt nod.
I felt my entire body unfreezing and let out the breath I hadnt known I was holding I stood to my feel.
Thank you, I managed to murmur before I left the office ; I didnt bother sparing any of them another look.
When I reached the dining hall where the feast was being held, I was met with a ton of strange stares.
Everybody was whispering amongst themselves about me, wondering if I got in trouble or if my reward had been revoked.
Hope you all got a good show, Nan said loudly, drawing everyones attention to her as she stood in the center of the room.
How about you gossip about something different now.
Everyone looked amongst themselves, their bantering continuing.
Nan only rolled her eyes and made her way over to me, wrapping her arms around me and pulling me in for a hug.
Are you okay? she asked me, her voice low and for my eats alone.
I nodded, feeling the burning sensation of unshed tears in the back of my eyes.
I refused to let them fall right here though ; I wasnt going to let my peers see me break.
Yeah, it was just a misunderstanding, I told her.
Did Gavin do anything to help? She asked.
I raised my brow, surprised by her question.
Why would he do anything to help? I asked, trying not to sound too awkward She smirked and nudged my shoulder as we made our way through the dining hall and toward an empty table.
Because he ran after you guys so fast ; barking orders at his Beta to find information out on Carol, she explained.
He looked pissed, and I have a feeling its because he wanted to protect his darling Judy.
I knew she was teasing, but her words caused heat to flare on my cheeks.
You are being ridiculous, I murmured.
Im not his darling Judy.
We almost slept together once and havent spoken about it since.
Whatever you say, she chuckled.
A waitress stopped by the table and handed us a glass of champagne.
Just what I needed right now, a little alcohol.
