But seeming the filming was about to wrap up soon, I promised Chanse I would be there at least for the next couple of days.
“Oh, hello, Daddy,” Irene said as she reached the bottom step, “You were gone all night. Everything okay?”
I ran my fingers through my still–wet hair and nodded
“Yeah, I had some business in the north. Nothing to concern yourself with. Did Matt get home okay?”
“Yes, he just left for school with Beta Taylor,” Irene answered. “Ethan is taking me out later, so I won’t be home. Will Judy be here today?”
“Not while the film crew is here,” I told her. “We need to talk about what happened between you two.”
Irene frowned and folded her arms across her chest.
“It was about Ethan,” she murmured. “I wasn’t in the wrong.
“You physically attacked her, Irene,” I reminded her.
“She started it!” Irene protested. “It wasn’t my fault. I was defending my honor as Ethan’s bride–to–be and future Luna. She’s just jealous and
“Ever since you found out that Judy is his fated mate, you’ve been jealous and angry with her,” I pointed
out.
At one point, Irene and Judy were friends, of course, I’ve noticed that that’s changed lately. I wasn’t an idiot; I only chose not to get involved. But now it was starting to affect things in my home, and I wasn’t okay with that. Irene needed to know that her attitude towards Judy wasn’t called for or necessary.
“I have every right to be upset,” She said, narrowing her eyes. “They both lied to me!”
udy too?”
“Exactly, they both lied to you. You already forgave Ethan… why not forgive Judy
She rolled her eyes and avoided my gaze as she said, “Because Ethan told me her intentions.”
“I’m sorry, what?” I asked, but before she could reply, a new presence entered the foyer.
“Alpha Gavin…” Skyla said as she walked towards us. “Have you come to see our shooting?”
“Yes,” I answered. “I promised Chanse that I would be here today.”
She batted her lashes at him.
“I wanted to talk to you about the other night,” she told me, pausing when she saw Irene.
“I’ll let you two talk,” Irene said quickly.
“We’ll finish this conversation later,” I called after Irene just as she hurried out of the room. I shook my head, watching my daughter practically sprint away from me in order to avoid this much–needed conversation. I turned my attention to Skyla, currently the vein of my existence. She’s been causing a lot of issues without even knowing she was doing it. “What can I do for you?” I asked, trying to sound

professional, hoping she would get the hint.
“I wanted to apologize. My behavior was embarrassing,” she told me, fiddling with her fingers.
“It’s been forgotten,” I assured her. “You can rest easy now.”
Not wanting to get into this conversation any further I walked past her through the villa until I reached the back patio. The film crew were grabbing their stuff and getting ready to move the shooting to the pack center. It was going to be mayhem there today because this was the first time the crew was filming in public. I’m sure words have spread like wildfire by now.
I greeted Chanse and then helped them move their things from my villa and towards the town. As predicted, it was complete mayhem. Paparazzi were everywhere, onlookers were attempting to snap photos and take videos. I had security guards attempting to keep them back, but there were so many of them and most of them were eager to get Skyla to notice them.
‘Alpha Landry, do you have a minute to answer some questions!” One of the paparazzi asked, trying to get past the guards but there was no use, the guard was way stronger and larger.
I wondered what kind of questions he could have for me, but this filming needed to begin so I shook my head.
“Not right now,” I told him, turning my back on him.
“I wanted to know about your new relationship!” He shouted after me, making me freeze for a moment. “Are the rumors true, Alpha?”
Skyla stepped beside me, her eyes shining as she attempted to grab my hand, but I pulled back and glared at her. She recoiled from my look and took a step away.
“I’m sorry… it’s just that we are both single, so I thought that maybe-”
I cut in, stopping her words quickly.
“Who said anything about me being single?”
