Gavin’s POV
After my phone conversation with Irene, I left the hospital and went straight to the graduation ceremony. Though there were still lingering graduates celebrating with their friends and family, Judy’s scent was long gone. It seemed that she didn’t stick around for the after-party.
I cursed and planned to just go to her house, but I stopped when I saw Beta Taylor approaching. He looked mournful as he stared at me, noticing my tense posture, the regretful look in my eyes.
“I know you care about her, but we have more pressing stuff to address right now, Alpha,” Taylor told me, using his professional tone so I knew he was all business. I knew he was right; that news article is ruining me. Now my entire territory is about to be aware that Rachel is pregnant, and they will assume that the baby is mine, just as the article and video attached to the article insinuate. I felt a rage like never before boiling through me as my fists clenched.
“Judy can’t see that article,” I told him, my tone leaving no room for arguments. “It would destroy her if she thought for a second, I got another woman pregnant. Especially after the night we had a couple of weeks ago. I can’t let that happen. She doesn’t deserve that.”
“And what if you did get her pregnant?” Taylor asked, his brows raising. “We don’t exactly have proof otherwise.”
“The baby isn’t mine,” I said through my teeth. “I didn’t touch her…”
She had markings all over her body, and your scents were intermingled,” Taylor reminded me, stating the obvious.
I let out a low growl, my wolf surging forward as I glared at him.
He took a step away from me, knowing it was not the time to push me. He took a deep breath and held his hands up in defense.
“Look, I’m just saying, you need to be prepared. It’s probably better if you leave Judy alone for right now until you know for sure. The last thing you want is to get her hopes up that the two of you can be something and then break her heart… again. She’s been through enough and doesn’t need any more of this.”
I hated that Taylor was right; Judy didn’t need me courting her right now. She needed security. I needed to get rid of Rachel and her constant presence before I pursue Judy and make a future with her.
The thought came suddenly, and I paused before walking back to my car.
A future with her?
Is that what I wanted?
Even as I thought about it, my wolf rumbled with approval, something that hasn’t happened since meeting Melissa, my fated mate.
“What’s the plan?” Taylor asked before I could leave.
I had no idea what the fucking plan was, and it aggravated me.
“I’m going back to the hospital,” I murmur. “I need to play the part as an expecting father, so Rachel and the pack don’t think anything is amiss. Meanwhile, I need Monty to hurry the fuck up with that security footage. I’m going to schedule a paternity test for the baby on the next ultrasound. I don’t want Rachel knowing about it because she could pull some strings and get the test results manipulated. So, give your mate a heads up about that.”

Anyone have suggestions for other books like this that are captivating for me to read while I wait for more chapters etc?...
Despite everyone's frustrations with this book, I think it's quite entertaining. I think Gavin and Judy have a long road ahead of them. If/when they're able to finally get on the same page, they still have to deal with his mom. Not to mention Judy has to reconcile with Matthew after abandoning him when she promised she wouldn't; and face Irene with the news that she's carrying a new sibling. Lol, Levi is the least of their concerns. Then there's having the baby. Pretty sure Gavin has untreated trauma associated with Irene's birth. My thoughts are, just be patient, find other books to read in between and enjoy the ride. I think it'll be good....
Anyone Know where we Can Read all of this book 2 chapters a day is a joke And waiting is killing me I’ll just want to end this book !!...
I never really read these books, but came across this one and annoyingly got hooked. Do these books just go on forever with no resolution? As if so, I’m going to call it a day and write my own ending lol...
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....
