Chapter 433
Judy’s POV

“I can’t believe we are actually at the fair right now,” I said, looking around at all the rides and bright colors. The crowd was wild, filled with laughter and excitement.

The fair was in town for just a few more days, so everyone was enjoying themselves.

“Does this make you happy?” he asked, watching me closely.

I nodded in response.

“Yes,” I admitted. “I’ve been having a great time.”

“I wanted to come here with my friends, but we haven’t had any time to sneak away between work and school.”

He paused for a moment, thinking about what I said.

“Are you okay with me being here with you instead of…”

“How do you feel about them?” he asked, glancing at me.

My heart filled with warmth at his question.

I nodded slowly.

“Yes,” I said. “I’m actually glad you’re here with me. I have a feeling you never really…

“Do you ever get a chance to have fun outside of your Lycan duties?” I asked.

He narrowed his eyes at me.

“I have fun,” he murmured, almost sounding defensive.

I wasn’t sure if he really believed it.

I fought back a laugh as I looked up at him.

“Oh yeah? Name one thing you’ve done that you consider fun,” I challenged, raising my eyebrows at him.

He paused for a moment, thinking it over.

“I went…

A few weeks ago, he mentioned, “I went to a banquet that I really enjoyed.”

I chuckled at his response.

“That’s not the kind of fun I’m talking about,” I said, rolling my eyes. “I meant going on rides…”

“and eating greasy foods… playing games.”

“Games?”

I nodded and pointed at the game stands that were set up nearby.

“Yes, and trying to win prizes, but never really succeeding because they are rigged.”

“Rigged?” he asked, looking at me. “Is that legal?”

“I don’t know,” I replied with a shrug. “But everyone knows the games at fairs are all rigged. It’s part of the fun.”

“How is that fun?” he asked.

I smiled. “Come on,” I said, grabbing his hand. “I’ll show you.”

We headed to one of the game stands. It was a vibrant spot filled with colorful prizes and cheerful sounds.

We played a game where we tossed rings onto bottles, trying to land the ring around the top of each one. It cost a few dollars, but Gavin insisted on paying, even though it was my idea. He wasn’t going to let me pay for it.

I used to find it sweet but unnecessary when my father would do little things for me. Now that he is no longer in prison and has paid his debt, I have some money to spare. This means I can afford a few extra things.

He played a few games at a fair, but there was no room for debate about his skills.

“Watch,” I said to him confidently.

I tossed a ring onto a bottle. Just as it seemed like it would land perfectly, it slipped off and fell.

Gavin frowned even more as he stared at the bottles. I kept trying to toss my rings, but none of them landed on any of the bottles. After using up all my rings, I had none left.

Gavin growled softly and then grabbed the guy by the throat.

His wolf was close to the surface, growling loudly.

“Is this game rigged?” he asked, his voice rough. “She threw those rings perfectly!”

The guy, who looked no older than 18, was clearly shocked.

“He stammered, looking nervous. ‘It’s… it’s my job to make sure no one wins…’ he admitted.”

I was shocked that he actually said it. I always thought it was rigged, but I never knew for certain.

“We’re going to play again,” he said in a deep voice that made me shiver.

The guy nodded, shaking all over as Gavin let him go. Gavin handed him a bunch of rings without asking for any money.

He turned toward the ring, and I felt a wave of excitement as he prepared to throw. I took a step back, eager to see what would happen next. He tossed the rings onto the bottle tops, and one by one, they landed perfectly.

I was amazed. My mouth dropped open in disbelief as I watched him succeed again and again.

The bell rang, signaling that a winner had been chosen.

“Congratulations!” the announcer said. “You can choose any prize you want.”

Gavin looked strangely proud as he turned to me.

“Pick your prize,” he encouraged me.

Gavin spoke to me gently. I felt my face turn red as I looked up at the prize board. My eyes were drawn to a huge purple bear, so I pointed at it.

Gavin nodded at the guy in charge.

“Can you wrap that up for us?” he asked.

He said this as he took my hand and led me away, not once looking back at the man. The guy we left behind stared at him, dumbfounded, likely confused about what just happened.

“That was incredible,” he said.

I laughed. “Did you see the look on his face?”

Gavin chuckled too. It was nice to see him relaxed for a change.

“Yeah, I thought he was going to pass out,” he admitted.

“So, what else do you do at the fair?” he asked.

“Ride rides, obviously,” I replied, looking at the rollercoaster in the distance. “Like that one.”

He followed my gaze, and I could see his eyes light up with excitement.
