Chapter 0198
Irene hadnt meant to spill that secret like that , especially with Ethan being right there .
But she didnt know that Ethan was about to walk in .
She was planning on meeting him later , so it would have been a nice surprise for him to show up at the Villa announce .
However , at this moment , Irene was mortified .
She stared back at Ethan who was staring at her like he was a deer caught in the headlights .
His eyes were impossibly big , and he had no idea what to say at this moment .
He hadnt expected Irene to know about him and Judy , even though nothing was going on between them right now , she was still never supposed to find out that they were in fact fatedmates .
Had Judy told Irene this information ? How would she have found out ?? I didnt mean to cause a scene , Irene said , standing to her feet and wiping at her eyes .
But Judy lied but it was to me from the beginning .
She told me that nothing was going on between her and Ethan , b nothing but a lie .
Gavins eyes found Judys and they darkened .
He was furious and that much was obvious to everyone involved .
Irene wasnt exactly sure which part he was mad at though .
Was he mad that Judy had and betrayed Irene , or was he mad at the fact that shes been sleeping with Ethan ? Maybe now her father will see that she is not the woman he thought she was , and he can leave her behind .
Skyla is the much better choice anyway .
Irene , Baby … Ethan finally said , breaking the silence between them as he stepped closer to her and around Judy .
He didnt even spare Judy a look and it made Irenes heart swell a little .
He looked so distraught and frightened that it tugged at her heartstrings .
I would never do anything to hurt you .
I just didnt want to worry you but Judy and I are indeed mates … but we broke up … theres nothing more to it than that .
Irene wasnt sure if she should believe him or not .
She stared at him with a hurt expression ; tears filling her eyes .
She bit her trembling lower lip , trying to understand what was going on .
I dont know what to trust anymore … Irene admitted , staring down at her hands .
I know … Ethan said softly , reaching his hand out to her like was trying to tame a wild animal .
And its my fault .
Im so sorry .
But I love you , Irene , and I would never do anything to purposely hurt you .
You have to believe me , baby .
Im so sorry you had to find out this way .
More tears slipped down Irenes cheeks .
Maybe you should speak about this in private , her father said , his eyes still fixed on Judy who remained on the ground .
His Alpha power did a number on her .
Irene finally nodded and took Ethans hand .
Okay , she said softly .
She didnt bother to share Judy another look ; she walked with Ethan up the stairs and into the bedroom , 1/2 Chapter 190 closing the door behind them .
Ethan let out a breath of air once they were alone , but Irene was feeling anything but relieved .
She wrapped her arms around her body and glared at him across the room .
How could you lie to me , Ethan ? She asked him after a beat of silence .
Ethan turned to look at her and she saw the remorse on his face .
I shouldnt have , he admitted .
Im so sorry .
Please forgive me … How can I forgive you so quickly ? She asked , sniffling as she wiped at her moist cheeks .
Are you still sleeping with her ? No , Ethan said without hesitation .
Do you want to sleep with her ? She suddenly asked .noveldrama
There as a slight hesitation that made Irenes heart crack even more .
Its complicated , he admitted .
My wolf still wants her because shes our mate .
So , I guess until we mate and mark you , then the answer is yes .
I still want to sleep with her in some shape or form .
But thatll end soon enough , and I wouldnt act on those feelings .
You are the one I want to be with .
You are the one I love .
I cant love Judy the same way I used to Why not ? Irene asked , meeting his eyes .
Because she cheated on me with someone else , he blurted , shrugging his shoulders .
Shes manipulative .
Shes been here this entire time , using your father , because she wants to get to me .
She told me so herself !
