2/2 Chapter 0144 Third Person POV Ethan returned to his room later that night after saying goodnight to his family. He was planning on taking Irene home, but when he saw that she wasn't there, he frowned. His room was completely empty. He grabbed his phone and checked his messages, seeing that he had a missed text message from her.
Irene: I went home. Enjoy your twith your family. I'll see you soon, Love y you.
was Ethan sighed and shoved his phone back into his pocket. He couldn't even say that he was upset; he relieved that she decided to leave. It meant he didn't have to pretend to be happy for another moment tonight. The memory of watching Judy leaving with Gavin Landry made an icy chill creep up Ethan's spine. He remembered the way he stood up for her and how Judy looked at him as if he hung the moon. It infuriated Ethan more than anything.
Had she truly moved on from him? They were fated mates after all, and she still wore his mark on her neck. How could it be possible for her to harvest no feelings towards him? He felt sick to his stomach.
He didn't want to lose Judy. He only wanted to marry Irene because of her status as Gavin Landy's daughter. Gavin could single handily make him the new Alpha of the Redmoon pack. But he still wanted to keep Judy on the side. He was furious at the thought of her in the arms of another man.
He decided instead of going home, he wanted to go to the local pub. He needed a drink to get his mind off Judy and the idea of her with someone else. The bar wasn't far from his family's house, so he decided to walk there instead, taking in the fresh cold air and the beauty of autumn night.
The bar wasn't super busy at this hour, but there were a few stragglers hanging out and talking amongst one another. Sof which Ethan recognized from the pack. They nodded at him as he walked by and he nodded back.

"A whiskey," Ethan murmured, putting his credit card on the counter. "And keep them coming.
"Rough night?" Charlie asked as he took the card and opened his tab.
Something like that." Ethan said, running his fingers through his hair.
Charlie chuckled and grabbed his drink, sliding it across the counter for Ethan to catch, which he knew he would. Ethan downed it in on go, which shocked even the bartender. Without Ethan having to ask, Charlie grabbed him another drink.
Once again, Ethan chugged it until the cup was dry. He slamined the glass cup on the counter, and slid it back to Charlie, silently asking for another.
Charlie obliged, knowing it would mean his death if he were to refuse his orders.
After his 6(th) drink, Ethan was practically seeing stars. He wasn't sure he'd be able to walk a straight line even if he wanted.
Someone sat beside him on the barstool, but Ethan was too far gone to really notice the new presence.
"A classic martini," the feminine voice said.
"Sure thing," Charlie replied as he went to grab the woman a drink.
Ethan lifted his gaze, and he was shocked to find a beautiful girl who wore practically nothing. Her long hair flowed evenly down her back and when she glanced over at Ethan, she offered him a small smile.
What amazed him the most was the fact that she looked just like Judy! "Judy..." he whispered, her image becoming distorted as the alcohol whirled around in his head.
She corked an eyebrow at him.
"My nis Hazel," she munnured.
He didn't care what her nwas, all he cared about was the fact that she looked just like his mate.

You are Ethan Cash, right?" "Yes," he answered. "Has anyone ever told you how beautiful you are?" She chuckled and took another sip of her a martini.
"On a daily," she admitted. After another beat of silence, she grew he grew wary of him staring at her and she cleared her throat. "Buyanother one of these and I'll let you takehome," she teased. He glanced at the bartender and raised his brows.
"Get the lady another drink," Ethan all but slurred.
Charlie laughed and glanced at Hazel with raised brows, as if to ask hen permission. She thought about it, for a moment, taking a look at him and then she glanced at the bartender. "He's a rich boy, right? Make it two and I want all my drink on his tab," she declared.
"Yes, Mam," Charlie replied.
After serval martinis, Hazel was just drunk enough to loosen up. She allowed Ethan to pull her into him as his lips crashed onto hers. He tasted like whisky and sadness, and it was enough to make her all sorts of hot. She fed of the weakness of men, and she knew she could get a pretty penny out of this one. Today's Bonus Offer
