Chapter 0042
Judy’s POV
“Irene,” I greeted, thankful that I sounded stronger than I felt. “I wasn’t expecting to see you here.”
“Oh, I was just getting some stuff for my upcoming wedding,” she said, holding up her shopping bag. She glanced at Nan. “And who’s this?”
I swallowed the lump in my throat; the last thing I wanted was for Irene to be curious about Nan and try to take her too. I knew it wasn’t fair of me to blame Ethan for leaving me on Irene because she’s as much a victim as I am if not more. But I couldn’t help myself. Whenever I look at Irene, I think about how my mate left me for her. I grimaced at the very thought of him touching her the way that he used to touch me. We were so in love at one point; he was my fated mate and we were supposed to be together forever. It was written on the star; it was the Goddess who paired us together.
But she had made a grave mistake. Or maybe it was Ethan who had taken the wrong turn. My chest continued to ache even after I swore, I was over him.
Does one ever truly get over their mate though?
“This is my best friend, Nan,” I told her, motioning for Nan who gave Irene a quizzical look. Nan already knew all about Irene and I didn’t have to explain who she was.
Irene held out her hand to shake Nan’s 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 couldn’t know that something was wrong.
Nan hesitantly lifted her hand and placed it in Irene’s.
“It’s nice to meet you,” Nan said with a forced smile.
“Hello, Nan,” Irene said cheerfully, not noticing that anything was wrong or weird. “I’m Irene Landry. Gavin Landry’s daughter and Ethan Cash’s fiancé. It’s 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 it’s 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.
“It’s kind of a girl’s day,” Nan added.
Something flashed in Irene’s eyes that I couldn’t quite understand.
“Oh, I see,” she said thoughtfully. “I’ve never had a girl’s 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.

Lovely… I just found this book Friday and I’ve finished all that here. How often do they release more and how much at a time?! I’m invested....
So Spencer was “in love” before he even meet her? I used to wake up and read this book but now I let days go past before I read the chapters...
Well heres to the next 300 pages of this never ending story because now Gavin is going to have to save her before Spencer does something even more stupid because Judy is to weak to do anything for herself apparently....
3 chapters we didn't need. Already guessed Spencer was working with Levi and that the attacks were also Levi...
I think of all the things that bother me the most about the rushed writing is the inconsistencies. Judy and Nans room number was initially 606 when they checked in at the island resort for the Gamma Competition, but then was suddemly 906 - which turned out to be needed information later. When they first met, Judy went to Gavin's office the next day and told him about her father's imprisonment and her need for money, but then later the author made it sound like Gavin had no idea. She won 5 million for takimg first in the competition but then it was eluded to her not have much money and needed cash from the additional tutoring job with Lukas and the position in Levi's elite force. Honestly, the wishy-washy writing makes it feel like Gavin is less of a strong leader and more like he has so much personal drama he cant keep anything straight. It feels like Judy is weaker than the author has intended, as well. I feel like Rachel's return could have been tightened up with more details around her time Gavin instead of making Judy out to be a bit pathetic and desperate for just a sliver of Gavins attention. Her pregnancy was also disappointing because of the rushed plot, the author seemed to have forgotten that Judy gave her virginity to Gavin and no other sexual partners were introduced for her - so who the father of her baby was shouldn't have felt like such a surprise - it felt a bit insulting to her vibe and the character build throughout the hundreds of unnecessary chapters. I believe if the author spent a little more time and cleaned up some of the events with pertinent and necessary details and remove the oddities of over-the-top pieces (like the shower gel and cologne that appeared out of nowhere for Gavin in Judy's condo) this storyline could really be something great and intriguing for readers....

You can tell this book was written by a man trying to think like a woman. There are so many plot holes and loose ends. They’re clearly dragging it on way more than they should as a money grab. And now we’re in for probably 50 more chapters while they hunt her down. I’m sure someone will end up drugged and SA’d by the end of it. So frustrating that we’re reading in circles. I’m out....
Same! Short chapters going backwards now!...
Is he a spy though? or is this gonna be a Fatal attraction? He wants to mark her for himself, & she's going to have to try to escape.. but dies she have her wolf still, i forget...
Girl Im dropping this shit 🥰...
