Chapter : 921

“Irene, don’t listen to her!” Chuck pleaded. “You know you love me… I’m the only one you can trust.”

“Shut up,” Taylor growled, getting into Chuck’s face. “We’ve heard enough from you.”

Irene sniffled again as she pulled out of my arms. She looked at me… really looked at me. For a moment, I had no idea what was running through her head. And when she turned to see Chuck, I worried that she would listen to him and do exactly what he said.

She stepped closer to him, her movements careful.

“Chuck…..” she said slowly. “I had loved you so much, and when I found out you were cheating on me… it broke me. A true mate… someone who loves you entirely, would never do such a thing. You hurt me in a way that I couldn’t even comprehend, and then somehow convinced me that it wasn’t how it seemed. I trusted you and believed you above anyone else in my life… but I think it’s time I started listening to them, because they would never steer me wrong. Judy is my friend, as are the rest of these people, and I need to believe them.”

Chuck narrowed his eyes at her; the pleading look on his face long gone and replaced with resentment and fury.

“You’re so fucking stupid,” he said through his teeth. “You really think anyone else will ever love you the way I did? You’re dead wrong. Don’t come crying to me when you realize how fucking wrong you are.”

It took all I had not to punch him in the face; thankfully, Taylor had the same idea because one second, Chuck was snarling at Irene, and the next, he was rolling around the ground with a broken nose.

Irene jumped back, a startled yelp coming out of her mouth as Taylor growled down at Chuck.

“Watch your fucking mouth,” he hissed.

I wanted to high-five him because that was the most badass thing I had ever seen.

Nan laughed loudly and proudly, pumping her fists in the air as she whooped and hollered for Taylor. I couldn’t help the smile that tugged at my lips as well, but I tried to suppress it because Irene still looked fairly horrified.

I turned to Cora and Esme, who were also smiling with pride in their eyes.

“So, what do we need to do?” I finally asked. “We’re all here.”

Cora nodded and motioned for me to step closer.

“Chuck needs to call the curse back,” Cora explained. “It’s not going to be easy to force him to do that, though. Clearly, he won’t willingly go along with that, which is why you are here, Judy You are the host of magic, and Chuck’s curse is also magic. You need to call his magic and force it out of Irene and back into Chuck. And Chuck needs to accept it back.”

I blinked.

“I need to call his magic?” I asked, my brows furrowed.

“Yes… and because magic is stubborn with a mind of its own, it won’t be easy. That’s why I would

have liked to train you a bit moronet

before we even attempted this. But I

suppose we can try now fut

are

up for it. It’ll take a lot of your energy, and it won’t be easy. Butm willing to help you to the best of my ability.”

I thought my magic and how it listens to me without a second thought; the Goddess had told me that it trusts me and that I need to put my trust in it as well. I knew would be able to do this way easier than Cora was making it seem, so I

nodded and took a deep breath.

I felt both my wolf and magic stirring inside of me; all of us ready for whatever was

about to happen.
