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 wasnt 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 time with your family .

Ill see you soon , Love y you .

was Ethan sighed and shoved his phone back into his pocket .

He couldnt even say that he was upset ; he relieved that she decided to leave .

It meant he didnt 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 Ethans 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 didnt want to lose Judy .

He only wanted to marry Irene because of her status as Gavin Landys 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 wasnt far from his familys house , so he decided to walk there instead , taking in the fresh cold air and the beauty of autumn night .

The bar wasnt super busy at this hour , but there were a few stragglers hanging out and talking amongst one another .

Some of which Ethan recognized from the pack .

They nodded at him as he walked by and he nodded back .

What can I get for you ? The bartender , Charlie , asked .

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 wasnt sure hed 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 name is Hazel , she munnured .

He didnt care what her name was , all he cared about was the fact that she looked just like his mate .

Are you okay ? the Judy look alike asked after a beat of silence .

She was now sipping on her martini and watching him warily .

Hey wait … I know you .

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 wary of him staring at her and she cleared her throat .

Buy me another one of these and Ill let you take me home , she teased .

He glanced at the bartender and raised his brows .

Get the lady another drink , Ethan all but slurred .noveldrama

Charlie laughed and glanced at Hazel with raised brows , as if to ask her permission .

She thought about it , for a moment , taking a look at him and then she glanced at the bartender .

Hes 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 .
