Chapter 0044
Judy’s POV
There was clear sadness in my father’s eyes as he watched me plead for my mother. I knew it was breaking his heart that he couldn’t be there with her to hold and comfort her. He used to tell me stories about the first time he ever saw her and how in love he was. He knew right away that she was his fated mate even before his wolf told him. There wasn’t a day that went by that I didn’t feel the love that they had for one another.
He lifted his arms to show me the silver cuffs around his wrists and I grimaced, seeing the burn marks the silver had left on him. Silver was dangerous against werewolves and blocked the wolves from the humans.
“I’ve been blocked from your mother, so I can’t feel her,” my father told me sadly. “Mates aren’t meant to be apart like this, so her wolf is probably in agony, taking your mother with her. I wish there was something I could do, but there isn’t. Not while I’m in here at least. The most you can do right now is to be there for her and remind her that you love her.”
I nodded as tears filled my eyes.
I didn’t want to tell him that every time I tried to speak to my mother the only thing, she wanted to talk about was Ethan and how I was disrespectful towards him. I didn’t want to tell him that my fated mate is engaged to be married to another woman and in order for him to help our family, I need to be his mistress and drop out of school.
My stomach twisted at the very thought.
My father was going through enough as it was and didn’t need this type of drama in his life as well.
“I love you, Dad,” I settled on, giving him a sad smile. “And I miss you every day.”
“I love you too, Judy,” he said in return.
He reached his hand over to touch mine which was resting on the table but the guard cleared his throat.
“No touching.”
My father sighed and leaned back in his seat.
“How have you been? How’s school going?” He asked.
I bit my lower lip; I wanted to tell him about my new job, I wanted to tell somebody. I needed someone to talk to. But I couldn’t because of that contract Gavin made me sign
“School’s going great,” I told him. “I even got a tutoring job. It pays decent. I’m saving so I can get you out of prison.”
He gave me a sad smile and sighed..
“Don’t waste your money on me, Judy. Besides, I don’t think a tutoring job is going to be enough to pay the debt owed.”
I couldn’t tell him how much I was actually making at this job because then he would ask me more questions about it and I couldn’t answer any of his possible questions
“Time is up,” the guard said, interrupting my thoughts.
“Tell your mother that I love her very much and that I will see her soon,” my father said, as he stood to his feet. ” I’m sorry I couldn’t be more helpful.”
Tears spilled down my cheeks and I wiped them away with the back of my hand.

“I will, “I assured her. “Take care of yourself.”
He nodded, giving me another sad smile before the guard dragged him away. Another guard appeared in the room. moments later to escort me to the front of the building where the entrance was. I thanked him for allowing me to see my father, but he barely even spared me a look.
1 sighed and walked the rest of the way outside, freezing when I saw a familiar face staring at me from the bottom. of the steps near a pink Porche 718 Boxster. I didn’t know much about cars, but I knew that was the newest model. I wasn’t surprised to see that there was also a custom license plate that read: Irene.
“Hey,” Irene said as I reached the bottom step. “Do you like it? I just picked it up at the dealership a couple of hours ago.”
“It’s beautiful,” I told her honestly. “What are you still doing here?”
I figured she would have left by now, so I was surprised she was waiting for me when I finished speaking with my father.
She shrugged casually.
“You have tutoring today, right?” She asked.
1 nødded in response.
“Let me give you a ride,” she told me, motioning for the car. “It’ll give us a chance to get to know one another. better.”
I frowned at that idea; the thought of getting to know the woman my mate was marrying, left an unsettled feeling in the middle of my stomach. But I could also tell that there was very little I could say to get me out of this situation. Besides, I really didn’t want to spend the money on an Uber if I didn’t have to.
“That would be nice,” I told her, giving her a small smile. Thank you, Irene.”
She nodded and ran around to the driver’s side, pulling the door open. I pulled open the passenger door and slid into the car. Even her seats had custom covers. It was a gorgeous car and it screamed Irene in every way possible. I had no doubt in my mind that Gavin was the one who bought her this car.
