Nan was seated on the couch in the far side of the room and Chester’s eyes widened.
“Ladies have a couch in their bathroom?” Chester asked, amazed. He shut the door behind him and locked it so they wouldn’t be disturbed.
Nan didn’t bother retorting; she stared at her hands thankful that the tears finally stopped flowing so Chester didn’t see how broken she was over this whole thing. Little did she know, he could feel it.
He stepped closer to her, wanting to give her space and yet wanting to close the distance between them with a desperation he didn’t understand.
“Nan…” he finally said, his tone soft and filled with compassion. “I’m so sorry. I didn’t mean for any of that to happen. She won’t be a problem for you anymore, you have my word.”
Nan glanced up at him and his heart broke when he saw that her eyes were red with unshed tears.
“She knew so much about you, Chester. You love her—”
“NO,” he said quickly as he stepped closer to her. “I’ve known her for a long time, that’s why she knows so much. But I don’t, nor have I ever, loved her. She was saying what she believed to be true, but it wasn’t how I felt.”
“She’s never going to leave you alone…” Nan whispered, tears starting to spill down her cheeks.
He sat down on the couch beside her and took her face in his hands, wiping away the tears with his thumbs.
“You have my word, Nan. She won’t be a problem anymore. I’m so sorry our first date was ruined. I’m sorry this happened. But I promise you, it won’t happen again. Please, don’t hate me…”
There was desperation in his voice, and she found herself drawn to his sincerity. She closed her eyes, letting more tears fall and he wiped them each with his thumbs.
“Why does this have to be so hard?” She whispered. “I thought it’d be easy once I found my mate…”
He let out a soft chuckle.
“Yeah, I don’t think there’s anything easy about mating,” he murmured. “But I want to give this a chance… a real chance. Please, don’t close the door on us just yet.”
She sniffled and nodded her head once.
“Okay,” she whispered. “I won’t close the door.”
Relief flooded him as he wrapped his arms around her and pulled her into his chest. She was surprised by the gesture, but the moment her head touched his chest, she melted into him, feeling at ease for once in her life. He felt himself melting as well, loving the feel of her in his arms.
“Can we go somewhere else?” He asked. “Maybe a walk. I’m done with this place.”

Next chapter please. I would love to see how this story ends....
Next Chapter please dear Author...Thank you .. I hope you are doing well so you can update the story....
Next chapter please...
Gavin may be the strongest alpha but he’s missing a few marbles lmao...
I get wanting to keep up appearances and make business partners happy, but Gavin needs to set boundaries with Rachel, and should have politely corrected her Luna remark, even if it’s “perhaps one day she will be Luna, but we just reunited after she faked her death, so I’d like to get to know this probably spy first.” And now that Gavin’s been drugged, is she going to get him to try to mark her? Or is she going to try to get pregnant with his baby so he’s guilted into marrying her for the baby? Ugh. So ready for things to look up for Judy and for Gavin to be kicked to the curb....
Now he needs Judy Knowing Rachel is a spy u are trusting her to stay in your house, allow her handle pack issues and even bring her to your business meeting, leaveq your drink to answer calls and now you expect Judy to come to your rescue after disappointing her...
This is getting so frustrating, I definitely think Judy should leave, I want to see her hook up with Lukas Merriweather and go to Micah’s pack, I feel there is no redemption arc for him now, also why hasn’t Irene said anything?! Like Nan and Chester told her so why hasn’t she said something. I feel Judy does need to stop getting lifts with Taylor, I also hate how Gavin is using Taylor to keep and eye and report. I hope she makes Gavin worry etc and tells him to do one. Honestly why would he play house and let a spy get involved. But I also noted that when Judy mentioned Rachel’s perfume…could it be a potion or something? Gavin is stupid he keeps saying how his wolf misses judy...
Yes, I've put too much thought into this, but here goes... Levi: Chapter 496 “My second plan was to get Judy out of his pack and make her switch allegiance. She had become Gavin’s weakness; removing her from Gavin’s life will leave an opening for an attack on his business.” Lila (Rache), Chapter 496: Here. Hold my beer. “Give me some time, and I’ll have her packing her bags in no time. Rachel, Chapter 510: “Because I’ve been lying to you for years. I never died in that crash, and I’m not who you thought I was. I was never a nurse…I was an undercover agent. I was sent to Silver Crescent as a spy.” Gavin, Chapter 520: “I had consumed all my time lately with Rachel, trying to regain the friendship that I had lost over the years.” You mean the friendship with the SPY??! Gavin, Chapter 357: “I was the most powerful Lycan Chairman in the world.” Judy, Chapter 359: “He was a Lycan Chairman and the most powerful man in the entire world. Gavin, Chapter 346: “He had been after my business for years because it’s the most successful in the world. Unfortunately for him, my business is concrete, and all his attempts at a takeover have been prevented.” A FEW MOMENTS LATER… Gavin, chapter 520: “She’s (Rachel) been living in the guest bedroom, and we’ve pretty much been playing house. We have dinner together and talk about our days (you mean when she was a SPY???) She’s been helping out with pack matters.” Gavin, chapter 520: “The look on her face when she first met Rachel and the pain in her eyes was something I couldn’t unsee. I never meant to hurt her; I didn’t want to keep things from her, but I wasn’t sure how to tell her any of this.” (SUCH A BIG, BAD LYCAN) Judy, chapter 357: (to Gavin) “You are such a coward.” BINGO!!! PREDICTION: Dean Griffin: “I wanted to personally congratulate you. You are graduating top of your class…One last thing… If I find out that Gavin Landry is the reason you are so successful, you won’t like the consequence.” Chapter 519, Judy: “I’d still like to finish college before I join any forces.” Levi: “Of course. From my understanding, you’re graduating in a couple of weeks. Take this time to think it over and make a decision.” Judy, Chapters 519-520: “My phone started to ring. I frowned at yet another unknown number. I mentally prepared myself for what this phone call was about to entail. Nothing could have prepared me for it. “ Actually, Chapter 519 could have prepared you. Judy will lose her status as the top of her class and possibly not graduate because the Dean is in cahoots with Levi. This will force her to accept Levi’s offer....
Gavin is a jerk! There’s no way he’s an Alpha and he behaves the way he does. Rachel is going to take him through the ringer… The only thing that may wake him up is that he’s going to find out from Alpha Mica (by way of Lukas) about Levi’s offer to Judy. That MAY wake him....
Rachel is obviously Levi's mistress. I think Judy's mark is already gone. The reason she passed out in the forest is because Ethen marked Sammy and the pain/release was intense. I can't read anymore. I thought after I got to 520 chapters I would have some satisfaction....
