Chapter 586
Judy's POV
The next day, I was discharged from the hospital. Instead of going straight to my condo, I went to the packhouse instead. I felt gross, and all I really wanted was a shower, but I wanted to talk to Alpha Sampson first. I wanted to know what was going on; I needed an update, and I needed him to update me as well. I wanted to know what the plan was for the future.
The packhouse wasn't nearly as busy as it was the other day after the first attack. I knew that meant most of the gammas were out doing a job, and the others in the pack were just trying to keep themselves safe.
I started to make my way across the packhouse when I heard my name.
"Judy!"
I turned to see Spencer rushing towards me, a relieved look on his face. Before I could comprehend anything, he had me in his arms and spun me around, making me laugh.
"Hey you," I teased, keeping my hold on him so I wouldn't fall.
"I'm so glad you're okay. I'm sorry I didn't come to see you, but things have been crazy here, and when I heard you were going to be okay, I didn't stress it too much. I knew you were strong but holy shit... You survived a bomb! You seriously are a badass. Anyone who had any lingering doubts about you before certainly doesn't have them now."
I blushed at the compliment when he put me back on the ground.
"Really?" I asked. "Is everyone talking about it?"noveldrama
"Not one person isn't," he told me. "Also, I picked up your slack while you were out
of commission and escorted our guests to the packhouse. We arrived a few hours ago. They are getting settled in their room now. Later, you should meet them. They are intense, though, I should warn you."
I nodded.
"I'm sure I can handle it," I told him. "I've dealt with intense people before. I'm actually only here to see Sampson for right now. I'm dying to get home and into the shower."
"He's in his office. He's been up all night dealing with the aftermath of everything. Janet is a mess after finding out it was her daughter who exploded in the forest. She hasn't left Sampson alone. Poor lady lost both her husband and daughter this week."
I shudder at the thought.
"I couldn't even imagine," I whispered.
He nodded in agreement.
"I know, right?" he murmured. "So, Sampson might not be in the best mood. But I'm sure he'll want to talk to you."
I nodded.
"Okay, thanks," I told him. "We'll talk more later?"
"Of course," he said, giving me a bright smile. “I'm really glad you're okay, Judy. You had me worried sick."
I went down the long hallway that led to Sampson's office. I knocked on the door 3 times, and once he gave me confirmation to enter, I opened the door and stepped into the room.
"Judy, you're back,” Sampson said, a pleased smile on his face. Though I could still see the worry lingering in his gaze and the tiredness of his eyes. It seems he hasn't slept in days, and it was drastically showing.
"I'm back," I tell him, shutting the door behind me.

I glanced over to see Aiden, Sampson's Beta, seated with his feet propped up on the desk like he owned the place. He gave me a smirk his eyes scanning my body and giving me an uneasy feeting. Aiden was the one thing I didn't like about this pack; he never seemed to take no for an answer. He wasn't a bad-looking guy, he was a little older than me, maybe late 20s, and he had blonde hair he always styled to perfection, and dark blue eyes with naturally long eyelashes that women would be jealous of. Most women in the pack found him to be eye candy and talked about him nonstop. He was what they would call a player; he never settled down and slept with anyone who walked.
Well, everyone except for Lucy... and except for me.
His not being able to sleep with me is driving him crazy, and lately, I've been on his radar. I kept telling him no, though, and that I'm not interested in getting to know him like that, but he's relentless.
“Beta,” I greeted, trying to keep things professional. Considering he was the Beta and someone of high ranking, the rule was that I had to acknowledge him.
His eyes twinkled with mischief, and his lips turned up into an almost sly smile. “Judy,” he replied in his own greeting. "Good to see you out and about."
"Not even an explosion can stop me," I say back, turning my attention back to Sampson. "I heard a bit from Lucy already, but I'd like to hear it from you. Was Cindy really heading to the pack to destroy it?"
Sampson swallowed, and I could tell from the way he was looking at me that what
I said was true. I let out a breath, my shoulders slumping.
