The War God Alpha's Arranged Bride (Evelyn and Alexander) novel Chapter 480

Chapter 480 A New Beginning

Judy’s POV

2 weeks later.

Life in the Redcliff pack had been interesting these last weeks. When I first arrived, it was Beta Ron who had met with me. I was expecting Levi, but apparently he was too busy. I hadn’t even seen Alpha Levi the entire time I was here. His home pack was only about an hour away from Redcliff, but I thought he would have been there to see me; I was wrong. Instead, he sent his Beta.

I stood in the front of the mirror in the bathroom in my new condo, getting ready for the day. When I first got here, I couldn’t stop crying. All last week was miserable, but I vowed that I wouldn’t shed another tear for a man who didn’t want me. It was obvious where his loyalties were, and it wasn’t with me, so why should my loyalties be with him? This week, I felt different Not necessarily stronger, just different. I couldn’t figure out why, though.

I stared down at my body; it didn’t look any different. I still had the same narrow frame with curvy hips from all the years of working out. I wore a tank top that rested just above my belly button and yoga pants that hugged my figure. I tied my long hair back into a ponytail, my eyes went to the fading mark on my neck from Ethan. It was almost completely gone; not being around him as much this past year had drastically weakened our mate bond, and when that happens, the mark gradually fades. In a few months, it’ll be completely gone.

I heard a knock on the door. I pulled my gaze away from my reflection and opened the bathroom door. I walked down the short hallway and entered the living room area. The condo was a vast and clean space; I hadn’t done much to it. It was decorated by the Redcliff packmates, and it was nicely done; it was modern and made the area seem brighter and comfortable.

I went to the front door and opened it to find Lucy standing in front of me. Lucy was gorgeous with straight blonde hair with pink streaks and Emerald green eyes, equipped with long and dark lashes. The second she saw me, her smile lit up her face, and she pulled me into a tight hug.

“Hey, girl!” She cooed. “Sampson wants you at the packhouse this morning. Something about a rogue threat he wants you to investigate.”

She waved her hand dismissively as if it were no big deal

I nodded as I grabbed my backpack, which was filled with all the supplies, such as weapons and equipment, that I would need for the day. I put my shoes on while Lucy watched me from the doorway, her eyes following my frame, and her eyes cocked to the side a bit.

“You look different,” she pointed out.

I frowned as I joined her at the door.

“What do you mean?”

“I mean, I know I’ve only known you for 2 weeks, but last week you were all thin, washed out, and sad. This week… you’re different,” she told me. “Your face is fuller and you seem brighter.”

“I feel different,” I admit. “I think this was exactly what I needed.”

We stepped out of the condo; Lucy’s red convertible was parked right outside. I raised my brows as I watched her walk around the car to get into the driver’s seat.

“I’m surprised that Alpha Sampson let you drive yourself here,” I teased as I slid into the passenger side.

“Oh, he doesn’t know I’m here,” she giggled.

I gawked at her, shocked.

“Are you kidding me??” I asked. “I thought he sent you to get me.”

She shook her head, nibbling on her lower lip.

“Not exactly. I convinced the Gamma that he did send to let me go instead,” she admitted with a shrug as she put the car in drive.

“And he went along with it??”

She just laughed, pulling away from my condo.

“Of course he did; I’m the Luna. He has to do what I say

I laugh at her logic.

“Your mate is going to kill you,” I tease. “And me for letting that happen.”

“Oh, please. He’d never. He loves me, and you’re my friend, so my default, he loves you.”

I laugh again and shake my head at her; I loved Luna Lucy and Alpha Sampson. They both welcomed me with wide smiles and open arms, especially when they were told I would be joining their Elite Force. It took a little while to prove myself to those I’m working with even after I won the Gamma Competition, but after one week of working with me, they realized I was all business.

I wasn’t there to play around. I was there to do a job. I do my job well, even if my brain is clouded because of a stupid guy. I refused to let my teammates see me weak, so I left my crying at my condo door before leaving every morning. This is the first week that I don’t feel like crying; yes, I’m still sad and my heart still aches every time I breathe, but I feel a bit lighter today I feel as if the weight of the world isn’t on my shoulders, and it was a nice feeling.

I was quickly making friends and a home in this pack.

Though I had to admit, I missed my friends back home. I’ve had my cellphone shut off for the last 2 weeks; I was afraid that if I called one of my friends, or if they called me, they would only feed me information about Gavin. The last thing I wanted to hear about was his wedding planning.

“Where did your mind just go?” Lucy asked with a frown

I hadn’t told Lucy about Gavin or about anything real in my life. She obviously knew I had family and friends back home, but she didn’t know much of anything else. I told her that I didn’t have a phone, which is why she couldn’t contact me right now. I have a company one from working with the Elite Force, which is what Sampson contacts me on; she keeps trying to get Sampson’s permission to contact me on that phone, but he refuses because it’s not meant for socializing.

I suppose at some point iw was going to have to turn on my phone and get a hold of my parents because they were probably worried about me, despite me calling them when I landed to tell them that I was safe, and I’ll contact them again when I can in a few weeks.

I’ll just tell Lucy that I happened to have gotten a phone and then give her my number.

2/3

giving them a short wave before I turned for the final time and headed off to start my new life.

Third Person POV

“She’s on her way here as we speak,” Alpha Levi said into the phone. “You’ve done well, Lila. Pretty soon, we will be able to take over the company completely. Gavin will be so distracted by everything going on around him, he won’t even see it coming.”

Rachel, aka Lila, laughed bitterly into the phone.

“He’s so stupid. He doesn’t expect a single thing. You should have seen the look on Judy’s face when I told her we were getting married. She was gutted. I’m glad she’s out of the picture now, though. It’ll make things much easier with Gavin.”

“Remember what I said, he’s not allowed to touch you. I won’t allow it,” Levi said, his tone dark on the phone.

“Baby, you know I’d never let another man, other than a human, touch me. I hate that I’m pregnant with someone else’s baby,” Rachel said, scowling. “But thankfully, it was only a human, so it doesn’t mean anything.”

Levi growled lightly.
