Chapter 122
Chapter 0122 Walter ? I asked after a long pause .
He blinked a few times and cleared his throat , meeting my eyes , he gave me a boyish smile .
I like you , Judy , he blurted out , making me raise my brows .
I really like you .
I think I could potentially fall in love with you .
My heart sank in my chest ; any woman would love to hear those words , especially from Walter Landry .
He was every womans eye candy , and I was so lucky to be in this position with him … but I didnt feel the same way about him .
I thought of him more like a friend than anything .
But I truly did not want to hurt him .
So , I wanted to ask you … if … youd be my girlfriend , he concluded , his eyes shining with hope and love .
It made my stomach twist guiltily .
I twiddled with my fingers thinking about that kiss on the dance floor and the fact that I had sex with his uncle the other day .
My cheeks flushed at the memory , and I bit my lower lip .
Walter … I said slowly , a sigh leaving my lips .
It was enough for him to know that this wasnt going to be a good conversation and that I wasnt giving him the answer he wanted .
I watched as his face fell a little , but he remained silent so that I could continue .
I think youre a really great guy , I told him , looking up to meet his eyes .
And any woman would be so lucky to have you .
But Im not really in a place to be seriously involved with anyone .
As you already know , my fated mate is marrying another woman , and my wolf is messed up over it … Im not like him though , Walter said , grabbing a hold of my arm , startling me .
Im different than him .
I would never hurt you .
Just give it some time and you can grow to love me as can your wolf .
I shook my head and tried to pull my hand away from him .
Walter , youre amazing and Im so sorry .
I dont want to hurt you , t about you as you do for me .
I tried … I truly did but- I just dont feel the same way Then try harder ! He exclaimed , his grip tightening We have fun together and we have amazing chemistry , Judy .
As friends , I told him , trying to keep my tone under control so we wouldnt draw any unwanted attention .
Thats a lie and you know it ! He scolded me .
We fucking kissed !! Please , let go of me .
Youre hurting me , I told him , struggling against his hold .
His coat fell to the ground during the struggle and his grip only tightened around my forearm ; I knew at this point it would leave a mark .
You led me on! You made me believe there was a future , he said through his teeth , anger flashing across his face .
His eyes were wild ; I had never seen that look in his eyes before and it made me nervous .
Please , Walter … Chapter 0122 You are nothing but a slut , he growled .
I should have never put my trust in you ! I should have never fallen for you .
Its no wonder Ethan left you for my cousin ! Before I could stop myself , I slapped him across the face .
He was so startled by the motion that he released me .
I pulled away from him and stared at him with anger in my own eyes and a fire burning deep in my belly .
Dont you ever speak to me like that again , Walter .
Im sorry that I hurt you but that doesnt give you the right to be a complete asshole ! I scolded him , pointing my finger in his face .
His resolve faded a bit , and I could see the remorse in his eyes as he ran his fingers through his hair .
Look , youre right .
Im sorry .
I was out of line , he murmured .
But I dont understand why we cant be together .
I mean you came here as my date didnt you ? You let me kiss you multiple times tonight .
And now youre telling me you only see me as a friend ? It doesnt make any sense .
Did something happen ? I saw someone with you earlier today … Is it because of him ? My heart fell into my stomach .
He saw me with that guy earlier ? Did he see us kissing ? My face must have been enough of an answer because that fury was back in his eyes as he glared down at me .
It is , isnt it ? He asked in a growl .
Something happened between you two .
Didnt it ? Walter- He grabbed my arm again , this time even harder and let out a distressed whimper .
You truly are a slut ! He hissed .
I wish I never met you , Judy Montague ! Let me go ! I growled , my fight and flight activating You have no right to touch me like this ! I dont want to be with you , so just leave me alone- The sting in my cheek cut off my words and the taste of blood filled my mouth before I even realized what had happened .
I stared up at him and saw the anger in his eyes and his own hand red from the -impact .
He just slapped me across the face .
