He didn't keepwaiting long, he said nothing more as he turned and ran from me. The moment he was out of sight, I let myself crumble. Tears flowed down my cheeks, stinging the wound on my lip. I touched my swollen cheek with my fingertips and winced. Thankfully, there were no witnesses, but I wasn't going to stick around long enough for anyone to coutside and see my situati I quickly hurried from the back patio. I didn't bother going back inside; I thought about saying goodbye to Irene, but the moment she saw my face, she would be questioning me, and I couldn't answer those questions right now. My entire body was trembling as I made my way around the front of the building.
Walter was my ride and there was no way in hell I was going to find him and have him bringhome. I reached into my purse and grabbed my phone. I was about to call for an Uber but then I heard my nand my entire body froze.
"Judy?" I knew that voice as if it were my own and I was dreading facing him right now. I couldn't seem to keep the tears from flowing down my cheeks. I kept my back towards him, not wanting him to seeweak like this. I heard the car door opening and then shutting, soon, I was engulfed in the familiar scent as I felt his hands on my shoulders, Electricity pulsated through my flesh from his touch, and I hated that I was drawn to him like this.
"What happened?" Gavin asked, his dark tone brewing. He knew I was upset without even looking at me; how did he know? When only the sounds of my sniffles could be heard, he forcibly turnedaround. The concern in his eyes turned into shock when he saw my face. As his eyes scanned my swollen cheek and the cut on my lip, I saw the fury in his gaze.
"Who did this to you?" He asked through his teeth.
"It doesn't matter," I murmured, wiping the tears off my cheeks. "I just want to go home." "Was it my nephew?" He asked, ignoring my request to go home.
Chapter 1 When I didn't answer, he let out a low grow. He already knew the answer withouthaving to say it. He grabbed my chin gently and moved my head up, so my eyes were fixed on his "I will never let him hurt you again," he said slowly, making sure I caught every word he spoke. I stared into his eyes for what felt like a long while before I nodded.

Then his lips slowly closed the distance, and he kissedine gently, my heart immediately skipped a beat, and my wolf was on her toes. His kiss was everything and yet so m familiar. It was at that moment! realized; he was the man I kissed inside. I suppose if he were to have his mask on still, he would resemble Walter. It was the family resemblance, and felt foolish to not have realized that sooner. My eart was racing as his tongue slipped out of his mouth and glided across my bottom lip, asking for permission to enter.
Permission that I granted by parting my lips for him. He wrapped his arms around my waist, pullinginto him, kissingas if his entire life depended on it The pain in my cheek and my lip slowly faded and I couldn't tell if it was him who was healing me, or my wolf, but regardless, I didn't want him to stop. I wanted... no... I needed more of him.
Gavin's POV After kissing Judy on the dance floor, I went to the host of the Gala and gave her my contribution check before saying goodbye and leaving, I didn't want to be there any longer, especially after watching Judy leaving with Walter, hand-in-hand.
My driver had already left, not expecting that I would be ready to leave so soon, but I knew Taylor was around the corner and would get there faster than my driver, so I called him and had him pickup instead.
It didn't take long for Taylor to get there and he knew better than to askany questions right now. Just as we were about to leave, I saw Judy walking down the street from the back pawith her arms wrapped around her trembling body and it looked as if she's been crying I knew at that moment that I wasn't going anywhere without her.
