Filed to story: Gavin Landry and Judy Werewolf Story
I followed her to see what she was doing, and I happened to overhear your conversation, she confessed.
Now Im going to ask you again … why cant she visit with her own father? I was shocked that Irene was here, and she was helping me I had a feeling I knew who gave the guards the order, he most likely paid them off too.
It was Ethan Something from the way the guard was looking at her, I could tell he didnt want to tell her this information either.
Everybody now knew she was engaged to him and upsetting Irene was not in this guards best interest.
He glanced at me and then back at Irene.
I didnt know you two were friends, he said with a nervos laugh.
Of course, she can see her father.
I was mistaken.
He stepped aside, allowing me entrance into the prison.
I looked at Irene who was still staring at the guard.
I wanted to say something to her, but the words failed me.
Instead, I nodded my head at her and then walked past the guard and into the prison Another guard walked me into the visitor center where I sat at a table, nervously fiddling with my fingers until the doors swung open and my father walked into the room.
No touching, one of the guards on standby instructed me I nodded and bit my lip as my father walked towards me.
As he came into view, my entire heart fell deep into my stomach.
I sucked in a sharp breath when I saw his bruised and bleeding face.
He was beaten so badly that he was hardly recognizable.
My heart squeezed painfully in my chest as I looked into his bloodshot eyes.
Judy … he croaked ; his voice raspy like it pained him to speak.
You came..
Oh ; Dad … I whispered, tears filling my eyes.
Im so sorry this happened to you … He gave me a sad and pained smile as he lowered himself into the seat in front of me.
I took my seat as well ; 1 couldnt seem to take my eyes off him.
He was no longer the strong and confident man I knew to be my adoptive father … he looked almost weak and broken.
He was the shell of the man he used to be and that thought alone destroyed me I never thought I would see you again, he whispered.
Im sorry it took me so long … He shook his head, sadness crossing his eyes.
This isnt the type of place you should be in, Judy.
I dont blame you for staying away … ! 13 I couldnt stop the tears from escaping my eyes.
They soaked over my cheeks and dripped off my chin.
I hated seeing him in this position ; I wrapped my arms around my body to hold myself together.
Hows your mother? My father asked, snapping my attention back to him.
Not good, Dad … I whispered.
Thats mainly why Im here.
Shes not happy.
I think she has gone depressed and Im not sure what to do … I was hoping that maybe you could help me?
Judys POV
There was clear sadness in my fathers eyes as he watched me plead for my mother.
I knew it was breaking his heart that he couldnt be there with her to hold and comfort her.
He used to tell me stories about the first time he ever saw her and how in love he was.
He knew right away that she was his fated mate even before his wolf told him.
There wasnt a day that went by that I didnt feel the love that they had for one another.
He lifted his arms to show me the silver cuffs around his wrists and I grimaced, seeing the burn marks the silver had left on him.
Silver was dangerous against werewolves and blocked the wolves from the humans.
Ive been blocked from your mother, so I cant feel her, my father told me sadly.
Mates arent meant to be apart like this, so her wolf is probably in agony, taking your mother with her.
I wish there was something I could do, but there isnt.
Not while Im in here at least.
The most you can do right now is to be there for her and remind her that you love her.
I nodded as tears filled my eyes.
I didnt want to tell him that every time I tried to speak to my mother the only thing, she wanted to talk about was Ethan and how I was disrespectful towards him.
I didnt want to tell him that my fated mate is engaged to be married to another woman and in order for him to help our family, I need to be his mistress and drop out of school.
My stomach twisted at the very thought.
My father was going through enough as it was and didnt need this type of drama in his life as well.
I love you, Dad, I settled on, giving him a sad smile.
And I miss you every day.
I love you too, Judy, he said in return.
He reached his hand over to touch mine which was resting on the table but the guard cleared his throat.
No touching.
My father sighed and leaned back in his seat.
How have you been? Hows school going? He asked.
I bit my lower lip ; I wanted to tell him about my new job, I wanted to tell somebody.
I needed someone to talk to.
But I couldnt because of that contract Gavin made me sign Schools going great, I told him.
I even got a tutoring job.
It pays decent.
