Chapter 238
Judy’s POV
Everybody knew about the rivalry between Levi Churchill and Gavin Landry. They were 2 out of 4 Lycan Chairmen in the world. A long time ago, all 4 of the Lycans used to rule over the werewolf territory together, but due to differences and some being more powerful than others, they decided it was better to split ways and divide their leadership to different parts of the world. Gavin, being the strongest of them all, took over the largest part of the werewolf territory. That didn’t sit right with Levi, who was also very strong, but not the strongest.
It was rumored that he’d been after Gavin for years, wanting to take over his section of the world. Some say he sends over spies and recruits rogues to tear things apart. It was never confirmed though.
Having another Lycan in our territory was unsettling to say the least, especially someone who is actively trying to bring Gavin down.
Professor Adams was smiling at me, but his eyes were shining with nerves. I knew he was thinking the same thing. It was nerve-racking having this Lycan here, with the Elite Gamma Force. Especially because it was Gavin who funded the Elites… so, wouldn’t it make more sense for Gavin to be here instead?
“This is the Judy Montague you were speaking about?” Levi asked, his voice deep and raining with authority. “Yes, Alpha,” Professor Adam’s said. “She’s one of my most prized students.”
I could feel Levi’s eyes on me and my cheeks flushed under his scrutiny.
“She doesn’t look like much,” he murmured. “Are you sure she’s capable of fighting?”
“Oh, yes, Alpha,” Professor Adam’s side, a more genuine smile tipping his lips. “You won’t be disappointed in her skills. She might be small, but she’s tough and she’s fast.”
Pride swelled in my chest from his compliment.
Alpha Levi looked at me for a bit longer before he cleared his throat and then turned to the Gammas standing behind him, nodding at them to continue walking. They did just that, they all started to walk past me without another look Levi started to walk around me as well, but he paused to look at me a bit further, his eyes narrowed and icy, sending a chill down my spine. I quickly averted my gaze and stared at a spot on the ground, nibbling on my lower lip until it was swollen.
“I look forward to seeing what you can do,” he said, surprising me. With those words left in the air, he walked off with the Gammas.
I stood frozen, not sure what just happened.
Professor Adams let out a breath as well and leaned against the doorframe.
“They are joining our class today to recruit from the student pool,” he explained, his voice dropping to a whisper.” I put in a good word for you.”
“Why is Alpha Levi here?” I asked him. “Shouldn’t it be Gavin Landry?”
“It was voted that Alpha Levi went around with the Elites instead. I think it’s because Alpha Gavin is busier. He’s the only Lycan who actually runs his own pack along with his section of the world. Not to mention he has a family without a wife. Levi doesn’t have any of that, so it was easier for him to go instead.”
I nodded, processing his words.
“You’ve got this, Judy. I’ve always known the potential you had and now they are going to know it too,” Professor Adam’s continued. “Just do what you always do and win.”
Easier said than done; before, it was for class credits and fun. Now, this could determine my entire future. But no pressure.
I wished more than anything I had Nan here; she always knew what to say to make me feel better and also, I could have used her support. After saying goodbye to my professor, I went off to my classes.
