“OH, Goddess, Judy. No, of course not!”
“I’m having trouble believing that…” I admit.
She nodded solemnly.
“I get that,” she murmured. “And maybe at first, I did target you, but I quickly realized that you are an incredible person, and I was lucky to get to know you. There wasn’t a moment when I didn’t feel bad for what I was doing, but you were always my friend, Judy. I promise… none of our friendship was fake.”
I was quiet for a moment as I processed her words. I wanted to believe her, I truly did. But I was still so hurt over it. I wasn’t sure if I could truly trust her or not…
“Why were you talking to Ethan?” I asked her.
Her cheeks flushed at my question, and at first, I didn’t think she was going to answer me.
“Nan saw you talking to him at the coffee shop,” I went on to explain, a hint of worry in my tone. I hated to think she was seeing him behind my back.
“He’s switching his allegiance to my father,” she explained. “I was only relaying a message to him from my father. It wasn’t anything major, I promise.”
“Ethan is switching his allegiance to Levi Churchill?” I asked. “But his family is the Beta’s of Redmoon.”
She nodded.
“That’s why he’s keeping it a secret for right now,” she replied. “I don’t think his family even knows. But my father promised him an Alpha status, and that’s why I had to talk to him. He’s wondering when Ethan plans to move so they can move forward with the next steps in that process.”
I thought about it for a moment, and I realized that it did make sense. I should have known that Sammy wasn’t seeing Ethan after everything he had put me through.
“Okay,” I finally said softly.. “I believe you.”
Relief formed on her expression, and she sighed.
“Thank you,” she said in return.
Before we could hug it out, my phone chimed. I frowned as I pulled it out of my pocket, only to see Nan’s name flash across the screen from a text message.
I opened the message.
Nan: Girl, did you see this?? It’s all over the news!
