Seducing My Ex’s Father In Law

Judy's POV

I wanted to leave, despite Gavin's protests. I didn't want to go home though. So, after a back and forth, he decided to bring me to the mansion. Now that Sammy and Ethan had been caught, he figured it was safe enough for me to return to the mansion and stay with Irene.

She was overly thrilled to see me.

On our way, I texted Nan and gave her a briefing of what happened, so I wasn't surprised when she met me there and wrapped me in her arms. I was majorly confused about the events of today and my wolf's reaction to Ethan and Sammy. She felt betrayed all over again, not just by our mate this time, but someone she thought was a friend. Her instincts were usually better than that, but in this case, we were wrong about being able to trust her.

I felt manipulated and lied to and all I really wanted to do was curl up on the couch with a couple of people I knew I could trust and vent about it.

Gavin didn't want to leave me at first, but after he saw that I was surrounded by friends, he relaxed.

"I'm a phone call away if you need anything," he tells me, his voice was kept gentle.

As he left, I couldn't help but stare after him. I was a bit confused about what our relationship was now. I didn't get why he's been so tentative with me, and I wondered if it's because he was feeling the same way I was feeling. I knew at the start that Gavin Landry doesn't' do relationships. At least not since the passing of his wife, Irene's mother. I knew what I was getting into, and I had to respect that, but when he treated me like this... like I was made out of glass and he had to protect me, it was hard for me to remember those boundaries.

"So, Sammy was the villain this whole time?" Irene asked, a frown marring her lips as she cradled Emalyn. She looked comfortable with the baby in her arms and the baby looked even more comfortable and content in Irene's arms.

"Apparently," I murmur.

"So, what exactly was she looking for? You only mentioned that Ethan wanted her to find something that you don't even have," Nan said, her brows furrowed.

I nodded in response.

"Yeah, apparently when you get signed on as a member of the Elite Force, you get a company phone," I said thoughtfully.

Irene's eyes grew wide.

"Yes, all the Gammas in the Silver Crescent pack have them," she

explained, "It holds top secret information concerning the

company. Information that has to be protected at all costs and it's the Elite Force that's in charge of protecting those secrets Access to that phone could mean the downfall of the Landry Franchise."

My heart weighed heavily as I listened to Irene's explanation. Now it was making sense as to why they were so desperate for that phone and why she was snooping through my things. They automatically assumed that Gavin offered me a position on the team and that I would have accepted.

I felt sick to my stomach at the very thought of them using me like that. I wrapped my arms around my body, trying to hold myself together as I thought about what had happened.

"They were in a relationship," I murmured, which was something I hadn't told to either of them yet.noveldrama

Nan nearly choked on her drink and Irene almost dropped the baby; thankfully she didn't... but it was a close call.

"What??" They both gasped.

"What do you mean they were in a relationship?" Nan asked, her brows furrowed; Irene was too stunned to speak.

"I mean I saw them kissing," I

murmured. "He mentioned making her his Luna and she batted her lashes, swayed her hips, put him in his place because he seemed to have forgotten who he was speaking to

and then he pressed her to a tree

and kissed her passionately."

Irene looked pale as she stared at the baby, a grim expression marring her perfect features.

"How many women does he need to have?" She whispered, her tone trembling slightly. "Does he plan to get her pregnant too?"

"The important thing is that Ethan switched his alliance to Levi," I told her. "Which means he can and will be banned from your father's territory, despite the fact that his family are the Betas of Redmoon."

"So, if Ethan is banished, then who's going to be the next Alpha of Redmoon?" Nan asked. "Gavin already has a ton of responsibilities and he's currently the acting Alpha of our pack."
