Chapter 0271
Judy’s POV
1 probably shouldn’t have been drinking as much as I have been. But I couldn’t help myself. I was so nervous and everybody at this dinner looked intimidating. They were all mostly men who were competing, along with only a few women. They were all huge and strong and I was thin and short… though I knew I was strong too; I wondered if I was strong enough to win this competition.
The dinner was delicious and set up like a buffet. They had every food imaginable and my mouth was watering as I grabbed a few different food items and placed them on my plate. I saw one giant guy in particular and he was pretty much showing off his muscles and talking proudly about himself. Sammy stood beside him with a small blush on her cheeks and when she saw me, her face lit up.
That must have bene her boyfriend, I thought to myself. I waved at her, and she gave me a short wave back, hiding it from her boyfriend. She probably didn’t want him to know that she was friendly with the competition.
At the long table in the front of the event hall was a table with 4 seats. 2 of them were empty; the other 2 occupied to Lycan Chainmen. My eyes grew wide as I took in their strong exterior, stoic faces, and glowing aura. They radiated with power, and it was hard to look directly at them. I heard through the grapevine that Alpha Levi wasn’t going to show up until tomorrow, so that explained one of the empty seats, but the other one confused me. I didn’t know that all the Lycan Chairmen attended this event; Gavin hadn’t mentioned anything to me about coming to this country for the competition
Was he going to be here?
I looked around but I didn’t see him anywhere. I couldn’t help the knot that formed in my belly at the very thought of it thought.
There were a few toasts and speeches from some of the Alpha’s and one of the chairmen. Everybody was excited and eager to get this competition started. It wasn’t going to start for another couple of days though, once everybody was here and ready. I heard some planning on training together in the courtyard tomorrow morning and I wondered if I should attend as well.
For the most part, I kept to myself and sat at the bar. I continued to drink until I could hardly feel my cheeks. I knew I had drunk too much when the entire room started to spin. I couldn’t stay here any longer.
I attempted to escape the room smoothly, but I knew I stumbled a few times before I reached the door. I don’t think anyone noticed though, at least I hoped they didn’t as I walked down the hallway and stepped into the elevator, I went to grab my room key to swipe on the elevator to make it move, but then I realized I left it in the
room.
I sighed. Nan was most likely still out with her new friends. wasn’t going to call her and bother her. Instead, I went towards the front desk, hating that I drank so much that I was stumbling through the lobby. There wasn’t a line at this time of night, thankfully. I also didn’t recognize any of the workers there; they must have been the night crew. I wondered what time it was
“I need a new room key. I locked mine in the room,” I told one of
the was
workers.
He went to type something on the computer.
“What’s your room number?” He asked.
I furrowed my brows, trying to remember the number in my drunken stooper.
“Uh… 909 I think?”
He nodded and typed something else on his computer. He grabbed a new key card and swiped the card to activate

- it.
“There you go,
you go,” he said.
I thanked him and went back to the elevator.

The second I was in the room; all I wanted to do was crash. I was way too lazy to change into my pajamas, so I decided to just strip naked and get into bed. Nan still wasn’t back, which was kind of a relief. I didn’t want her to see me like this.
The room smelled different; it smelled nice. Not that it didn’t smell nice earlier, but it seemed even better this time. I wondered if Nan had sprayed something before she left. Or maybe one of the workers came and tidied up a
bit.
I stripped off my clothes, leaving them on the ground in a path as I made my way toward my bed. It felt like a further walk than it had earlier, but I classified it as me being too drunk to really classify anything.
I crawled into bed, through the covers over my naked body and allowed myself to drift off to sleep.
Gavin’s POV
I hoped a shower would help sober me up a little bit. But it really didn’t. It wasn’t often that a Lycan could get drunk like this, but I spiked my drink with something so strong that it could take down all 4 of us Lycans. I just needed to shut my mind off for a little while.
The dinner for the competitors was being held now, and I knew I should have probably been there. All of us Lycan’s were expected to be there, but I couldn’t bring myself to go. At least not tonight, I’ll go to the dinner they are going to hold tomorrow. But for tonight, I just needed to be alone and shut off my brain.
