Judy's POV

I was nervous as I pulled up to my parents' house. I hadn't seen my father in months. We returned to the territory late last night; I went home to the mansion to sleep and then first thing this morning I went straight to my parents' house; the one Gavin had purchased for them right after he got my father out of prison by paying off his entire debt.

I was honestly surprised my father let it happen, but then again, maybe he didn't have a choice. I knew they were hurting him in prison; they were beating him until the brink of death, and then they would heal him and do it all over again. This was because of Ethan and his manipulation. He convinced the guards and other inmates to target my father.

The thought made my blood boil; I hated Ethan for what he did to my family, and I was determined to make him pay for this. I was relieved that Irene now saw the monster she was once engaged to and had enough sense to end things with him.

I raised my hand to knock on the door, a nervous bubble in the pit of my stomach. As I knocked, I realized how ridiculous it was because technically, this was my house too. Nothing had changed about me; I grew up here. I had a key to the place despite being owned by the Cash family for a short while, but I don't think they ever stepped foot in this home. They only bought it to get under my family's skin.

As the door opened, my mother stood on the other side with a big frown on her face.

"Why on earth are you knocking?" She asked, pulling me into a tight hug. "Oh, sweetie, we've missed you. And we are so unbelievably proud of you! I knew you could do it!"

"You were watching?" I asked.

"Of course!" My mom breathed, pulling me into the house and shutting the door. "The entire pack was watching. I'm sure the whole shifter world was watching."
