Chapter 0020

Judy’s POV

My mother was smiling for the first time since my father was taken away by pack Gammas.

“Oh, Judy. Good, you’re home. Look who came to visit with us,” my mother said, a smile beaming on her face as she looked at Ethan. “He told me that he’d be able to help us if you are cooperative with him.”

She had a questioning look in her eyes when she looked back at me.
