Noah leaned back, swirling his wine lazily.
“Interesting that nobody even knew about her until recently,” he said, his eyes shifting to me and then to Judy. “No announcement… no Luna ceremony. Keeping your mate a dirty little secret?”
Judy’s eyes flashed gold for the briefest heartbeat. I wasn’t even sure if anyone else noticed it… But I did.
“Our mating is new,” I explained calmly; I knew I didn’t have to explain myself, but for Judy’s peace of mind, I felt it needed to be said. I didn’t want her to think, or have Noah put it in her head, that I was hiding or ashamed of her in any way, because that couldn’t be further from the truth. She might be young, but she was mine. “There will be an announcement soon and a wedding later this year.”
“How many months pregnant are you?” Selene asked suddenly, changing the subject and clearing the tension in the air.
“4,” Judy answered.
“Do you already know the gender?”
“A boy,” Judy replied with a small smile, her hand immediately going to her belly.
“A heir,” Zachary said with a nod. “I’m sure you’re very excited to have a heir for your foundation.”
“I already have a heir, but it’ll be nice having another,” I said bluntly.
“You already have an heir?” Zachary asked, his brows raising. “I wasn’t aware.”
“Yes, my son Matthew.”
“I see,” Zachary said, his eyes shifting from Judy to me. “I’m assuming the mother isn’t your mate?”
“That’s not any of your business,” I said a little too sharply. None of this was their business; I wanted to find out why the fuck they decided to invite me to dinner. Surely it wasn’t to talk about Judy or my children.
We continued to eat; they made no more mention of Matthew or Judy’s due date, much to my relief. Judy seemed to relax a little in her seat now that the attention was off her. Noah kept stealing glances at Judy, which made my blood boil, but I bit my tongue.
By the time the meal ended and dessert arrived, I was about to jump across the table and rip his head off for his continuous stares. Noah had always been a flirt, but this was crossing a serious line.
Suddenly, the sound of his phone ringing drew his attention away from Judy. He frowned at the name that flashed across his screen.
“I need to take this,” he said, standing to his feet. “It was good to see you again, Gavin. I’m sure there will be plenty more opportunities for us to talk.”
He glanced at Judy once more, and a slow smile spread across his face.
“Miss Montague. It was a pleasure to finally meet you,” he said, holding out his hand for her.
Judy didn’t take it.
She stared at him with a frown as she said, “You as well.”

thank you for continuing...
please tell us is this the end?...
please update go back rewrite what was skipped waiting for more...
I keep on waiting for another chapter. Is this all??? 🙏🙏🙏...
Magnificent book! True that you skipped through scenes that I believe you would have written beautifully about, like Judy's Luna ceremony and their wedding, not to mention Declan's birth and the family adjustments all around. Yet still, it couldn't take away from the master piece that this literary content actually is. Good job....
Thanks for this wonderful book...
Is the story complete? Gonna leave us on chapter 734 ?...
