Chapter 0253

So , instead , he left me ? His mate ? Nan asked , her eyes growing wide as she stared up at me .

How does that make sense , Judy ? I was quiet for a moment , not really sure how to answer her I dont know , I admitted .

Its all too much right now .

Im sorry you have to deal with this .

She sighed and threw the pillow to the side .

I just dont want to think about it anymore , she said , shaking her head as she wiped at her eyes .

Lets talk about you instead .

1 smiled .

What about me ? I asked .

She rolled her eyes .

Oh , please .

Im not stupid , Judy .

You are living in his mansion .

You already told me youve been sleeping -together , but I think theres more to it .

You have actual feelings for him and its obvious he has feelings for you too .

What are you talking about ? I asked , feeling heat creeping across my cheeks .

We are just having a bit of fun .

We both agreed its just a show .

Its not that serious .

A bit of fun ? Seriously , Judy ? Hes letting you live in his mansion , she said , waving around at the vast space .

You are pretty much a princess right now .

I couldnt help but laugh .

Im not a princess , I said , swatting at her arm .

And Gavin has barely been here in the last few days .

I couldnt keep the bitterness out of my tone as I spoke ; the smile slowly faded from my lips .

What do you mean ? Nan asked with a frown .

Is everything okay ? I shrugged and nibbled on my lower lip .

I dont know , I admitted .

One minute he cant get enough of me and the next , he doesnt want to spend any time with me .

He keeps canceling our plans whenever Irene cries for him .

Irene is causing problems again ? Nan asked , her brows raised .

I nodded and then I sighed .

Shes his daughter , so I cant fault him for choosing her .noveldrama

But its just constant .

Every time shes in a bad mood or has sniffles , he cancels our plans to tend to her .

I havent seen him in days and when I do see him while Im tutoring Matt , he blows me off .

Claiming hes too busy to talk .

I dont even think hes sleeping at the villa .

Which makes me wonder wheres been sleeping if not at the Vill and not- with me .

I was rambling , but I couldnt help myself .

I was so confused about what was happening that it was making the words spill from my mouth .

Hes Gavin Landry .

Hes probably just busy , Nan suggested , a worried frown marring her lips .

Im sure its .

hothing to worry too much about .

Dont stress over it .

I could say the same to you , I teased .

You are worried about your mate , and Im worried about a guy Im sleeping with .

What happened to us ? ~ Chapter 0253 Is this what growing up is ? Nan asked , her nose crinkling Because I dont like it .

Too many emotions .

I laughed and wrapped an arm around her as she rested her head on my shoulder .

Im not a fan either , I admitted .

But I dont think what Im doing is grown up .

This is my own fault for thinking I can separate my feelings .

Nan sighed .

I wish I could separate my wolf from me sometimes because its her feelings that Im conflicted over , she admitted .

I knew exactly how she felt ; when Ethan left me for Irene , wanted nothing to do with him .

I wanted to walk away , but my wolf was the one who kept me grounded and waiting for him to come around .

She held onto the hope that our mate would return , but I didnt want him to return after what he did .

Our wolves only know one thing and thats our mates belong to us and only us … they would never want another .

Focusing on Nan and Chester was a good distraction from my own problems .

I should tell you something , I told her , breaking the long stretch of silence .

She lifted her head to look at me .

You can tell me anything , she assured me with a warm smile .

It was nice to see her smiling again , despite all she had gone through these last few days .

I was nominated to participate in the Gamma Competition Her eyes grew wide .

Judy , thats incredible ! She gasped .

Congratulations ! Thats everything youve wanted ! Thanks , I said .

This was the first time I said these words out loud to anyone .

I wanted Gavin to be the first one 1 told , but hes been MIA for days .

Its across the country , so Ill be gone for a few weeks .

Her face fell suddenly .

Oh , she breathed .

So , youre leaving ? I nodded , nibbling on my lower lip ..

I leave next week , I admitted .

She nodded , her shoulders sagging .

Im going to miss you .

Im not sure what Ill do without out , she murmured .

But maybe some time away would do you some good .

That was when I had an idea .

Yeah , it would , I told her , then I turned to look at her .

And it would do you some good too .

Come with me .
