Filed to story: Gavin Landry and Judy Werewolf Story
But I kept my composure and just stared at her, dumbfounded.
Why would she think we were sleeping together? Had I done something to make her think this? When I didnt respond right away, Irene winced.
Im sorry, but I need to know if you are sleeping with my fianc? , Judy … Of course, Im not, I told her in a harsh whisper.
Why would you think that? She bit her lip and chewed on it for a moment.
Because you both act strangely around one another, she answered.
You get weird and Ethan … well Ethan cant take his eyes off you.
I felt heat rushing to my cheeks.
She truly was observant.
Im not sleeping with him, I assured her.
I barely even know him.
We are from the same pack, so I knew him before you introduced us.
But I would never sleep with him knowing hes in a relationship with someone else, I assured her.
She lifted her gaze to meet mine ; she stared at me for a long while as if she was trying to figure out if I was being truthful or not.
Really? She finally asked.
Yes, I told her.
Besides, your father would kill me if I overstepped.
She smirked and then shrugged.
He is very protective, she admitted.
I just dont get where Ethans head has been at lately.
Hes hard to read.
From what I remember, hes always been like that, I told her.
I wouldnt take it to heart though, Irene.
He loves you and wants to be with you.
He chose you.
She seemed to have relaxed because she finally smiled a genuine smile, and then she nodded.
The waitress gave us our meals and we talked mindlessly as we ate.
I felt a bit hollow since the conversation though ; I didnt like lying to her about my history with Ethan and the fact that Ethan loves her.
I knew he was only using her and if she found out about that, it would destroy her.
Once dinner concluded, Irene grabbed my arm before I could go out the front door.
Lets go out the back, she whispered, a devilish and humored look in her eyes.
What? I asked her, raising my eyebrows.
Why? Because the guards are out front and I just want a little longer without them, she said, glancing out the front door.
Lets take a walk.
I didnt argue with her ; I followed her out the back door and we walked through the dirty alley until we reached the street.
I could see Leroys car and the guards car a distance away near the front door of the restaurant.
Irene saw them too and we quickly hurried in the opposite direction.
As we ran, I couldnt help but laugh.
I felt like a child sneaking around her parents.
Irene was also chuckling, both of us gasping for breath and holding our stomachs as we laughed around the corner.
I leaned against the building we were near, sure that we were far enough away to rest for a minute.
We cant avoid them forever, I chuckled.
I know, she sighed.
I just wanted to have some fun I wrapped an arm through hers.
I get it, I assured her.
Maybe we can hang out again? She perked up, a look of pure happiness in her eyes.
Really? She asked.
I had to admit, I liked hanging out with her.
She was easy to be around and easy to love.
It was no wonder Ethan wanted her and not me … it was more than just her status ; it was who she was as a person.
She deserved better than Ethan.nted to tell her the truth, I hated lying to her.
It didnt make me feel good and she was only going to hurt as a result.
Gavin was wrong for keeping this from her.me on, she said, pulling me along with her.
Lets get back before they send a search party out for ?dded but as we walked, I grew more apprehensive.
I wanted to tell her the truth despite what Gavin ght want.
But as I opened my mouth to speak, a white van pulled up beside us and a ton of men piled t of the car, surrounding us.ey were masked strangers with sickly scents, and they were huge.
I got in my fighting stance knowing at I didnt stand a chance because there were so many of them and only one of me, he look of panic was clear on Irenes face.
She went to scream, but she immediately passed out when meone stuck a syringe into her neck.
Irene ! I yelled, trying to get to her, but I felt a sting in my neck and then arms wrapped around my mp body, just as everything went black.
Judys POV
I woke up to the sounds of murmurs nearby ; my memory of what had happened was a bit foggy and my head ached like I was hungover, but I dont remember drinking that much.
I had mainly water with a few sips of white wine at dinner, but it wasnt enough to make me hungover.
I dont even remember falling asleep.
My fingers twitched as I came to, and I could feel the cold concrete ground beneath me.
That was part of the reason why my body was aching.
