Chapter 714

Judy's POV

"Where are we going?" I asked as Gavin put his hand on the small of my back and guided me through the crowd.

His face was serious, and I felt the tension rising within him; yet, I felt a twinge of determination as well. Whatever he was planning, I knew it was coming together right now.

"We are going to pay for what we bid for," he told me, keeping his tone low.

I decided to just trust him and keep my mouth shut; I knew he would never allow Levi to do that with the Moon Gem. That was the whole point of us being here in the first place; if he was confident that he could get it back, then I had to believe him.

I swallowed down the words I wanted to say and followed him into a back room where Edward waited. He was standing behind a counter with a few items on it, including the necklace that Gavin won.

Edward looked up from the papers he was reading and gave Edward a polite smile with a quick bow to his head.

"Alpha, I have the invoices ready for you," he told him. "Are you ready now?"

"Yes," Gavin replied.

Not long before, Levi and Lila were joining us as well. Lila looked smug as ever as she clung to Levi's side.

"I'm ready to pay for my bids now," Levi announced, holding up a black Amex. "Yes, Alpha," Edward said as he readied both invoices for payment.

Gavin said, his tone cool and collected. I looked up at him, wondering what it was he was doing, but
