Filed to story: Gavin Landry and Judy Werewolf Story
Nan already knew all about Irene and I didnt have to explain who she was.
Irene held out her hand to shake Nans and Nan only stared at it for a brief moment, a frown marring her perfectly glossed lips.
I had to nudge Nan slightly on the arm to snap her out of her stupor because Irene couldnt know that something was wrong.
Nan hesitantly lifted her hand and placed it in Irenes.
Its nice to meet you, Nan said with a forced smile.
Hello, Nan, Irene said cheerfully, not noticing that anything was wrong or weird.
Im Irene Landry.
Gavin Landrys daughter and Ethan Cashs fianc? .
Its so very nice to meet you.
I could see Nan struggling to keep her calm, but she managed just fine and dipped her head in respect.
And its an honor, Miss Landry, she said with a slight bite in her words.
What are you girls up to? She asked, looking between us 1 glanced at Nan who gave me a slight shrug just before looking back at Irene.
We were just shopping, I answered.
Its kind of a girls day, Nan added.
Something flashed in Irenes eyes that I couldnt quite understand.
Oh, I see, she said thoughtfully.
Ive never had a girls day before.
I guess I never really had friends to do that type of thing with.
I raised my brows ; I found it difficult to believe she never had friends.
I mean, she was Irene Landry after all.
Youve never had friends? Nan asked, mimicking my thoughts.
Trene shrugged casually, looking a bit troubled Not real ones, she admitted.
I guess people are just intimidated by me or something.
Its no big deal..
She bit her lip and stared at the ground.
I looked at Nan again ; I knew Irene wanted an invite to our shopping spree and 1 could tell Nan was thinking the same thing because she gave me a slight head shake when I met her eyes.
I grabbed Nans arm and turned back to Irene.
Well, it was nice seeing you again, Irene.
We should be going now, I told her as I pulled Nan alongside me.
Oh, Irene said, sounding disappointed.
Okay, I guess I see you later.
I nodded and waved over my shoulder and continued dragging Nan down the street, ignoring that Irenes eyes were burning a hole in the back of my head.
Shes certainly an interesting character, Nan murmured as we entered the boutique.
Certainly, I agreed.
We spent the evening shopping for Nan and getting Talia albirthday present.
Nan settled on a gorgeous ruby bracelet with a heart charm ; she got Talias name engraved on the charm.
After we went shopping, we went to a restaurant for dinner Thanks for going out with me today, Nan said as she dropped me back at the house.
I smiled at her.
You dont have to thank me, I told her.
I love hanging out with you, She smiled ; we hugged, and I left her car to return to my dark and quiet house.
Its been exceptionally quiet since my father was taken.
My mother had hardly left her room in the last couple of days.
I checked on her this morning, but she didnt seem to want to talk.
If I cant get her out of Her room tomorrow, Ill probably end up calling her doctor to make a home visit.
She couldnt keep going on like this ; it wasnt good for her.
She was wasting away before my eyes, and I was so worried about her
Nan had a good idea during dinner to maybe go and see my father in prison ; perhaps he could give me some insight on how to handle his mate.
I wasnt sure if that was something I was ready for.
But after I got out of school the next day, I decided to give it a shot and see if I could speak with my father.
Sorry, Mam.
We were told not to let you enter, one of the guards at the front entrance of the person said, folding his arms across his chest.
I frowned, staring up at him with confusion on his face.
Im sorry, what? I asked, confused.
Its a prison.
Im in the visitor section ; I have every right to be here.
I need to see my father.
His frown deepened as he took a look at his clipboard and then he shook his head.
I have strict instructions to keep Judy Montague away from the prison, he told me.
Theres nothing I can do about it.
Im sorry but Im going to have to ask you to leave ! I was about to open my mouth and say something again, but another voice sounded behind me.
And who exactly gave you those orders? If it was any type of Alpha, I assure you, they did not get the permission of my father before stating such a rule.
Is there a reason my friend cant visit with her own father? Irene asked, folding her arms across her chest.
L … uh … Miss Landry, the guard stammered, bowing his head to Irene.
W … what are you doing here? I happened to be driving by when I saw Judy entering the prison.
