Chapter 0008 Third Person POV "I don't mix personal relationships with other matters," Gavin replied as he sat back in his seat and continued to stare out the window. He didn't want to continue this conversation. He had already made up his mind that he wasn't to see Judy Montague again.
"Or are you just afraid," Taylor asked, his tone teasing and a smirk playing on his lips.
Gavin scowled at his Beta.
"Taylor you're fired," he muttered.
This made Taylor laugh.
"And how many times have you fired me?" Taylor asked, still laughing and shaking his head.
"This week? More times than I can count. One of these days I'm going to mean it," Gavin replied, rolling his eyes. "And you think that's going to stopfrom telling you my thoughts? We've known one another for a long time, Alpha What makes you think I'm going to keep quiet?" "Just focus on driving, Beta," Gavin said through his teeth.
Taylor was about to say something more, but then his phone rang, making him stop in the middle of his sentence. He pulled his phone out and pressed the talk button. A familiar voice sounded on Bluetooth.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Butler Adam, you are on speaker phone. I have Alpha Gavin with me," Taylor said.
Adam had been part of Gavin's family for a long tand a trustworthy butler. Gavin personally put him in charge of caring for 7-year-old Matt while he was away. He didn't usually call like this unless it was Matt-related. As soon as Gavin heard that it was Adam on the phone, he was immediately on high alert.
"Oh, good Alpha. I must speak with you about your son. Another tutor quit this evening," Adam said, sounding a bit irritated.
"Another one?" Gavin asked, pressing his lips together.
That would be number 49. His tutors never lasted more than a few days. Matt wasn't a bad kid, but Gavin knew he was a bit troubled at times.
"Yes, sir. Master Matthew scared her off like he had the others. I'm not sure what more to do for him. I've tried speaking to him, but he only lashes out at me, Alpha." "Widen the recruitment scope and increase the salary offers," Gavin demanded. "Maybe a bit more money will keep them around longer." Adam sighed.
"Yes, Alpha. I'll see what I can do," he murmured before the line-disconnected.
Beta Taylor was quiet for a short while, stealing glances into the mirror periodically.
"Do you suppose he's developing issues concerning his mother?" Taylor finally asked.
Gavin glared at him through the mirror.
"He doesn't speak to his mother," Gavin said bitterly. "No will he for quite a while if I have anything to say about it.".
7/2 Chapter 0005 +25 BONUS Judy's POV It's been a disheartening couple of days. All my job applications kept getting rejected.
1 didn't understand why I wasn't getting any of these jobs. My application was flawless; I had a ton of experience from former jobs, not to mention a ton of education due to college. I was also young and in good shape. Yet I kept facing rejection after rejection.
Pulling out my phone, I decided to search the job boards. I applied to a few of these businesses already and most of them I hadn't heard back from. Then, something new appeared and my brows raised.
It was posted a little over an hour ago.
A tutoring job for a 7-year-old boy, multiple subjects including basic combat skills and defense. Must be knowledgeable and experienced.
I bit my lower lip as I sent in my resume; a tutoring job would be nice, and I would be able to do it after my own schootschedule as well. The job was posted on a werewolf job board and the location was in the Silver Crescent pack, which wasn't far from the Redmoon pack Instead of waiting around for them to call me, I decided to use the number listed on the board and give Mr. Adam Conners a call.

"Hello, Mr. Conners. My nis Judy Montague. I stumbled across your ad seeking a tutor for a 7-year-old boy. I just sent in my resume, and I would like the opportunity to meet with you." There was silence on the other end, and it madefeel nervous. A swarm of butterflies flapped away in my belly as I waited for his response.
"This job isn't for the weak, madam. May I ask if you've ever tutored before?" He asked.
"I have helped my peers with their schoolwork in high school. I'm currently a student at Royal Academy studying combat and shifting. I'm skilled in most subjects. I graduated top of my class in high school, and I aim to do the sin college as well," I told him. "I see," he said thoughtfully. “That's quite impressive. Master Matthew is a bit troubled though and might need someone strong enough to handle him," he said a bit hesitantly.
"My goal after college is to beca Gamma warrior. If I'm not strong enough to handle a roubled P I to handle 7Eyear-old, then there's a bigger issue at hand, Mr. Conners," I said without missing a beat. There was a brief pause on the other end, and then I heard him chuckling.
"I must say, I like your confidence, Miss Montague," he replied.
"Please, callJudy," I insisted.
"Alright, Judy. Well, I just pulled up the resyou sentand it's quite impressive indeed. Why does someone with your skill sets and ambitions want to tutor a child?"
