Gavin’s POV
My mother had crossed a line tonight. I knew tonight’s dinner was going to end up disastrous, but I had no idea she would end up attacking Judy so boldly like that. I was angry and replaying the evening in my head as I drove Judy home. I was well aware of how awkward the silence was that stretched between us.
When I looked over at her I could see she was lost in her own thoughts, probably thinking about all the questions my mother had asked her. I clenched my fists around the steering wheel, feeling a heavy weight on my shoulders. I fixed my attention back on the road, anger rolling off me in waves.
My mother had never pissed me and my wolf off like that but for some reason, I nearly lost control of him tonight. I had to get out of there before my wolf forgot that she was our mother and did something we’d regret.
I couldn’t take the silence for much longer. I didn’t want Judy to think the absolute worst after such a disastrous dinner.
So, I uttered words that made me seem weak and vulnerable.
“I’m sorry…”
The words came out as nothing more than a whisper; they were barely audible even to my own Lycan ears.
Judy pulled her gaze away from the window to look at me.
“What?” She asked.
I was quiet for a moment, debating whether or not I should repeat myself or not. I eventually sighed, giving in.
“I said I’m sorry,” I said a bit louder. “My mother was out of line. You didn’t deserve that. I wouldn’t have brought you if I knew what she was planning.”
