Judy's POV

"Did you really think you could hide from me, little wolf?"

I was in deep shit. I knew I was in trouble the second Marlo ordered Rocco and Peter to escort me to Sampson's office in the packhouse. That meant that Sampson mindlinked him and ordered him to do just that; this also meant that Sampson feared I would run. Which wasn't far off considering I was indeed a runner. I would have run to avoid this conversation; there was no doubt in my mind that Lucy had told him the truth about my pregnancy.

The worst part was... I couldn't even blame her. If she hadn't, Dr. Jasper would have.

The second I was scheduled to go patrolling with my team this evening, I could see the worry in Lucy's eyes. I knew her heart was in the right place. I hated that I couldn't be upset with her... I only had myself to blame.

I knew that I was pregnant, but I shouldn't be so careless.

The second I heard his voice... I knew I was in even deeper shit. He dismissed Rocco and Peter, and after slight hesitation, they were gone. I kept my back towards him, too afraid to actually turn around and face him. I had run from him; I left and said nothing to him, and now I was facing him head-on. I still couldn't believe he was in Redcliff. I barely even heard his speech because all I could think about was the fact that he was actually here... standing in front of me.

My heart pounded in my chest when I felt his front pressing against my back. His warm breath fanned against the back of my neck, and I felt goosebumps forming on my arms.
