Chapter 433

Judy's POV

"I can't believe we are actually at the fair right now," I breathed as I stared around at all the rides and the colors. The crowd was insane because the fair was only in town for a couple more days, so everybody was having fun now.

"Does this make you happy?" He asked, observing me.

I nodded.

"Yes," I admitted. "I've been wanting to come here with my friends, but we haven't had any time to sneak away between work and school."

He was quiet for a moment, processing my words.

"Are you okay with me being here with you instead of them?" He asked, glancing at me.

My heart swelled at his question.

I nodded slowly.

"Yes," I told him. "I'm actually glad you are here with me. I have a feeling you never really had fun before. You are all work and Lycan duties. Do you ever have the chance to get out and have fun?"

He narrowed his eyes at me.

"I have fun," he murmured, almost defensively.

I fought a laugh as I looked up at him.

"Oh yeah? Name one thing that you've done that you consider fun," I said, raising my brows at him.

He thought about it for a moment.

"I went to a banquet a few weeks ago that I found enjoyable," he replied.

I laughed.

"That's not the kind of fun I'm talking about," I told him, rolling my eyes. "I meant, going on rides and eating greasy foods... playing games."

"Games?"

I nodded and pointed at the game stands that were set up.

"Yes and attempting to win prizes but never quite getting here because they are rigged."

"Rigged?" He asked, glancing at me. "Is that legal?"

"I don't know, but everyone knows the games at fairs are all rigged," I tell him with a shrug. "It's part of the fun."

"How is that fun?"

I grin.

"Come on," I tell him grabbing a hold of his hand. "I'll show you."

We went to one of the game stands; it was the game where we tossed rings on bottles, trying ot get the ring around the top of the bottle. It cost a few dollars, which Gavin insisted on paying even though it was my idea. He wasn't going to let me pay for anything, which I found sweet but unnecessary. Now that my father was no longer in prison and his debt was paid, I had money to spare, and I could afford a few games at a fair. But he left no room for argument. swnovel

"Watch," I told him.noveldrama

I tossed a ring on top of a bottle and just as it looked as if it was going to make it, it fell off. Gavin's frown

deepened as he glared at the

bottles I tried again until I had no rings left, none of them landing on any of the bottles. swnovel

With a low growl, Gavin grabbed the guy by the throat, shocking me. His wolf was close to the surface as he growled loudly.

"Is this game rigged?" He asked, his tone gruff. "She threw those rings perfectly!!!"

The guy, who was no older than 18, stammered and said nervously, "It's... it's my job to make sure no one wins..." he admitted.

I couldn't believe he actually admitted it; I always assumed it was rigged, but I never actually knew for sure.

"We're going to play again," he said in a growly tone that sent a shiver down my back.

The guy nodded, his entire body trembling as Gavin released him, handing him a bunch of rings without charging him the second time. He turned towards the ring and I watched with anticipation as he

lined up. I took a step back watching as he tossed the rings onto the bottle tops. swnovel

One by one he nailed it.

My mouth dropped open as the bell went off indicating a winner.

"Congratulations," the guy said. "You can choose any prize you want."

Gavin looked oddly victorious as he glanced at me.

"Choose your prize," he told me, his tone gentle.

I flushed as I glanced up at the prize board. The giant purple bear caught my eye,

so I pointed at that.

Gavin nodded at the guy.

"Wrap it up for us," he said, as he took my hand and guided me away without a single look back at the man. The guy stared at him with a dumbstruck expression, probably confused about what had just happened.

"That was incredible," I laughed. "Did you see the look on his face?"

Gavin chuckled; it was nice to see him a bit carefree for once.

"Yeah, I thought he was going to pass out," he admitted. "So, what other things do you do at the fair?"

"Ride rides obviously," I said, glancing at the rollercoaster in the distance. "Like that one."

He followed my gaze and I swear I saw his face paling.
