Gavin's POV

I didn't want to make just anyone the Alpha of the Redmoon pack. I didn't trust just anyone. It took me a long time to figure out why that was the case; the Redmoon pack was Judy's home pack. It was where her family and best friend lived.

I wanted someone I could truly trust to run that pack, and because I didn't trust anyone, I did it myself. I told myself and everyone who asked that I didn't pick an Alpha because none of the candidates wowed me, which was partially the truth. But the full truth, I wanted Judy to like and trust the Alpha, and I knew she wouldn't want any of them, especially not Ethan.

Maybe that's why I didn't fully want him as the Alpha, even when he was engaged to Irene.

But Sampson had good energy, and he was someone Judy clearly trusted. Plus, his Luna, Lucy, seemed like a good one despite my earlier judgment. Yes, she might be materialistic, but she cares about her packmates and truly loves Sampson.

Judy had fallen asleep an hour ago on my arm. I look down at her sleeping form and tucked a strand of hair behind her ear, allowing my fingers to linger on my cheek for a moment longer than necessary.

She was so beautiful that my heart stuttered slightly.

Mine.

The word went through my mind and my wolf fucking purred with contentment. He fucked purred. Yet, I couldn't bring myself to care. Judy was here... she was safe... she was coming home with me.
