Chapter 0282
Judy’s POV
“Are you sure your foot is okay?” Nan asked as she followed me around our suite. It was later In the evening, the first round of the competition ended. I managed to see about an hour of it after I left the resort urgent care. Nan and I found some empty seats in the audience and cheered on the first round of competitors.
Some had already gotten eliminated, and it was brutal to watch. I tried not to look at Gavin who sat with the other Lycans in the front row. I hated how good he looked and how badly I wanted of rip that suit off his body. The memory of his touch made my body tremble.
Did you hear me?” Nan asked, waiving her hand in front of my face, bringing me back to the present moment.
Sorry,” I said as I went to the closet. I grabbed a dress that brought and turned to look at her. “What did you say?
“I asked if you were sure your foot was okay. You don’t have to go to this dinner. You didn’t compete today.”
“I know, but I want to be there for support,” I told her. “You could always come with me.”
I promised some of the girls I’d go to a bar with them tonight,” Nan said pointing. “I’m sorry.”
“Go have fun; don’t worry about me,” I told her, hugging her. “And yes, my foot is fine. It’s already out of the
and it’s only been a few hours.”
I could still feel pain, but it wasn’t nearly as bad. If I go easy and don’t use it too much, then I’ll be fine and ready to compete tomorrow morning. I went to get dressed, and Nan helped me fix my hair and makeup. I wanted to make some good impressions at this dinner. Every night this week there was going to be a special dinner for the competitors. We didn’t have to go to them, but it left an impression.
After I said my goodbyes to Nan for the evening, I went straight to the party room. Once again, I had to follow the map, and a few times, I got horribly lost. Eventually, I found the room where the event was being held.
Gavin’s POV
“You definitely want to go to this dinner?” Derek asked with a timid frown on his face as he stared at me.
The elevator doors opened, and I stepped out with Derek following closely behind me. The Paparazzi snapped pictures of me and paused so I could pose for some pictures I wasn’t a complete dick.
After a minute, Derek helped me get out of the hands of the paparazzi and towards the party room.
“I
“I figured I should show my face for at least one of these dinners,” I murmured.
We reached the party room, and I walked inside. From there I was greeted by eager fans and bows of respect. The room was decorated beautifully for the competitors, and everybody wore their best clothes. These events were typically held in formal attire.
Alpha Landry, so good for you to join us,” Alpha Levi said as he handed me a glass of wine.
I frowned at him; I didn’t trust this guy, especially with Judy in the same resort. There’s no telling what he would do to her if he found out about what was going on between ijs.
“We missed you at the banquet last night. It was meant to kick off the competition,” Levi continued as he took a sip of his red wine.

“I got in kind of late,” I lied. “I wanted to rest.”
“Understandable,” Levi said, his eyes icy. “You are very busy, so I don’t blame you.
The last thing I wanted to do was stand there and make small talk. I could feel the other Lycans watching me. They were always filled with jealousy and resentment, so I tried to keep a distance from them when I could.
My eyes immiedalty caught wind of something and I froze.
Judy was walking through the door, her dress hugging her thin and strong form perfectly. It’s crazy how she could go from looking like a gym rat to a supermodel.
My eyes trailed down her slender legs and I frowned when I saw there was no cast on her ankle. She looked nervous as she walked through the door; she had her hands on her stomach like she might get sick at any moment.
She was supposed to be resting her ankle… but on top of that, being here was ous for her. What was she
thinking? Following me here? Now it seemed as if she wanted everyone to find
about us.
