Judy's POV

"Are you sure you want to leave? It just seems so sudden," my mother said, watching me as I pack my belongings. Nan was also in my room, a frown marring her face. I told them late last night that I had an early flight this morning. I hated that I was leaving without much warning, but I needed to get out of here; I needed to start fresh away from Gavin Landry.

"I'm sorry that I'm just taking off like this," I told them without meeting their eyes. "But this is something I need to do. Plus, it's a huge opportunity. The Redcliff pack is one of the largest packs in the world, and their Elite force is huge."

"Not as big as the Silver Crescent pack," Nan told me, folding her arms across her chest.

"Gavin hasn't offered me anything," I muttered. "Plus, you know why I can't stay here, Nan."

She sighed, running her fingers through her hair.

"I just wish you would take the time to think about it a bit before you make any drastic decisions."

"I had thought about it, and I need to leave..." I told them, tears filling my eyes. I refused to look at them, though; I didn't want them to see my sadness. "I can't watch him have a baby with another woman..."

My voice broke when I broke that sentence. I hadn't realized I was trembling until my mother came towards me, her arms outstretched as she pulled me into her arms. The second I was engulfed in her warmth, I lost it. Tears soaked my cheeks and into her shirt as I cried. She held me tightly, her own tears spilling down her cheeks.
