Chapter 596
I mean, it’s only been a couple of weeks, so maybe they hadn’t tied the knot yet.
I wanted to vomit.
I couldn’t believe Gavin was actually here… in Redcliff.
I reached the yard where everyone was gathering, my heart in my throat. I joined the rest of my team, Marlo was standing in front, and when he saw me, he gave me a short nod. I nodded back as I stood beside Spencer.
“You okay?” He asked, his eyes narrowed as he studied my face. “You look like you’ve seen a ghost.”
I wasn’t sure how to respond to that; my entire body was on fire, and I thought I was going to pass out. Without even looking up, I knew Gavin was nearby. My wolf was all focused on him… I couldn’t smell him, which meant he was wearing the masking spray, as were most in this pack.
My eyes flickered around until I spotted him up front, speaking with Alpha Sampson. Gavin’s eyes traveled to me briefly before readjusting his attention to Sampson. My face was burning as our eyes met for that short moment.noveldrama
Sampson stood on stage, clearing his throat and gaining the attention of literally everybody. Lucy stood beside him as the Luna, her eyes finding mine, and she winked. I smiled at her in return.
Sampson started the meeting by explaining the recent situations with the attacks and how he wants everyone to remain safe and to report to him if they notice any suspicious activities. He explains how each and every packmate will be spoken to personally; he didn’t say that they suspect that someone is helping the rogues, but he didn’t have to say it. From the way he was speaking and his body language, it was obvious.
He then went on to introduce Gavin Landry and Beta Taylor, whom I was now just noticing. I also recognized some of the gamma warriors who were mingled with the Redcliff Gammas. They were part of Gavin’s pack despite them being mixed in with us.
Gavin gave a small speech about his goals and why he chose to help us. Something about wanting to stop the threat before it becomes problem for his territory. I was only half paying attention; I was too busy trying to keep myself from passing out. I couldn’t believe he was here…..
Finally, Sampson announced that we are going on patrol and he’s taking teams out to patrol beyond our borders. Anytime we have to go beyond our borders, it means wey entered rogue territory, which is dangerous, especially now that we are being targeted.
“The first team that is going on this evening will be Marlo’s team,” Sampson said, glancing at Marlo.
My eyes grew wide, and I locked onto the eyes of a startled Lucy. Before I could stop her, she was already whispering something quickly to Sampson, whose face twisted from curious to utter shock.
“What?” He asked. “How do you know this?”
My heart was pounding in my chest as she whispered something else to him.
He turned to Adien, who stood near Taylor.
“Get me Dr. Jasper, immediately,” he said through his teeth.
Aiden nodded and went to find Dr. Jasper in the crowd. I was standing, shocked, by what was happening. Lucy was now refusing to meet my eyes her eyes downeast, and knew…. knew what she had done.
“Judy Montague,” Sampson said, his eyes narrowed as he glared at me. “Get to
my office immediately.”
