Chapter 0069
“You’re Gavin Landry’s wife?” She asked. “The Gavin Landry?”
“Yes,” I said, folding my arms across my chest. “Is there a problem?”
“Only that Gavin Landry isn’t married and if he were to get married, it wouldn’t be to a nobody like you,” she said, narrowing her eyes at me. “Do you think I’m an idiot?”
“I think I was called to this parent/teacher conference because my son got in trouble,” I said, raising my brows.
“Look, I don’t know who you think you are, but you are certainly not a Landry. You don’t even look like you’d be Matthew Landry’s mother. You look like an overgrown toddler in your business suit. You are pathetic and weak and not suitable to be a Landry,” she said through her teeth.
“Lucy, is there a problem out here?” A man asked from a nearby doorway. The plaque on the door read: Principal Thome.
He was Matt’s principal and the one I needed to meet with.
“No, sir,” the woman, Lucy, said, her eyes still digging a hole into my face. “This woman was claiming to be Mrs. Landry. How pathetic does she sound?”
Principal Thorne looked me over carefully, his thin lips thinning even more as he took me in. I felt uncomfortable under his scrutiny and suddenly I just wanted the ground to open and swallow me whole. “You are Mrs. Landry?” He asked, narrowing his eyes at me. “I wasn’t aware that Alpha Gavin, the most powerful Lycan Chairmen in the world, was married since his fated mate died years ago.”
I swallowed the lump in my throat and kept my gaze steadily on his.
“I am his wife, yes,” I lied, hating that I didn’t even sound convincing to myself.
This made Lucy laugh even harder.

“She sounds so stupid,” Lucy chuckled. “Look at her; Gavin would never marry someone like her. She’s a nobody. No pack has ever even heard of her.”
Principal Thorne looked me over again, almost as if his wheels were turning.
“You sure are a looker though,” he said, wiggling his brows at me. My entire face turned hot as I stared at him in disbelief. Was he making a pass at me? “Perhaps we can forget about this whole thing if you make it worth my while. I have a few minutes before my next meeting.”
He winked at me, making bile rise in my throat.
“A girl like her is only good for one thing; spreading her legs,” Lucy chuckled; she stared at me like I was nothing more than a bug she had just stepped on.
“You think so?” Principal Thorne asked as he stepped closer to me; I was rooted to the ground, unable to actually move. He reached over and brushed a strand of hair out of my face; his touch against my skin burned and I would have slapped him if he wasn’t Matt’s principal. “Then perhaps she should prove it to me first. I might even let Matthew off the hook.”

“Gavin Landry is going to lose his shit when he finds out that this imposter is pretending to be his wife. Everybody knows that Gavin is a single man, and he would never be caught seen with someone like this bitch. You should be ashamed of yourself for trying to trick us.”
Just as I was about of step away, Principal Thorne grabbed my arm and started to yank me toward his office.
“For wasting my time, you can make it up to me,” he said as he continued to pull me along with him. I struggled against his hold as Lucy chuckled and grabbed her phone. She started to take pictures of the situation.
“Let go of me,” I ordered, my wrist turning red from his hands.
“Not before I get what I want,” the principal sneered.
Panic struck me suddenly; was this the man who looked over the students? He was a complete monster! How dare he lay a hand on me like this!!
The door of the main office swung open, and we all froze when a couple of the Silver Crescent Gamma warriors walked in along with Beta Taylor. My heart fell deep into my stomach upon seeing them,
ne that the next person who walked through the door would be Gavin Landry.
I was busted and this was going to be so humiliating.
