Seducing My Ex’s Father In Law

"It's not just a symbol, Judy," he told me, turning his body so he was completely facing me now. His eyes poured into mine, rendering me speechless. “It's the power. The ancestors from all the great Alphas before me are in this gem. I could feel the power just from being around it. My mother kept it in her lockbox the entire time. My father always said that he'd pass it to me once I'd chosen a proper Luna for the pack, but I never could, and he died before it ever happened. My mother has been wanting the same thing, except she always has a luna in mind... someone I don't even want to think about right now," he spoke through his gritted teeth.

"Daisy Baldwin?" I asked, already knowing the answer before his subtle nod.

"Yeah... Melissa's sister. My mother thinks a Baldwin is a proper Luna, but she's obviously mentally ill," he muttered, rolling his eyes at that last part. "She won't give me the gem until I do wants... but now it seems she's given up."

"Hence the auction," I whispered. "So, she's doing this because you're with me..."

"It seems that way," he told me. "But I don't want you to think I'd give you up for the gems because I would never do that. I'm never going to marry Daisy. I'm never going to be interested in her."

"How does your mom know about us?" I asked, looking up at him. "She has to know something, doesn't she?"

"I'm not sure," he said, his fists clenching. "That's exactly what I want to figure out.

I have a feeling someone might have told her."

"But we were so careful," I said, shaking my head. "Nobody knows about her except for our inner circle, and not even everybody knows yet. None of our friends would betray us."

"I'm not saying they would," he told me, tucking a strand of hair behind my ear, making my cheeks flush. "But we can never be too careful. Being a powerful Lycan chairman and you being a Gamma competition victor, there are always eyes on us. It's no surprise that my mother got word of our relationship before we officially told anyone."

My cheeks flushed.

He was right; there were always eyes on us, but to think that private information about me and Gavin got sent to a woman who can't stand me and would rather have Gavin with someone else. I shuddered at the thought and bit back an angry growl as my wolf surged forward.

As if Gavin knew what I was thinking, a small smile formed on his lips. He kissed the bridge of my nose.

"Easy, girl," he said, speaking to my wolf. "I'm yours."

It settled her, and it settled me.

"So, what are we supposed to do?" I asked him. "We obviously can't let him get his hands on that gem."

"Which is exactly why we are going to that charity event," he told me. "There's no way in hell I'm letting him or anyone buy my family heirloom."

I nodded.

"I'll do what I can to help you. I mean, we are in this together after all," told him He looked at me for a long, moment, and I could feel his fove and gratitude, but I could feel something else as well... hope.

"Will you come with me to see my mother later this evening?" He asked. "Before the party, that is... need to speak with her about why she'd@uction off the Moon Gem, and want to tell her about well while we are there.

My cheeks flushed.

"She's not going to take it well... your mother hates me," I reminded him.

"It doesn't matter what she thinks," he said without hesitation. “Plus, she most likely already knows, considering she's auctioning off the heirloom. But still would want her to hear it from my mouth that it was true. No matter her reaction, you are still mine, and I am still yours. Nothing will change that."

He brought his lips to mine and gave me a sweet kiss that took my breath away. I

"Okay,” I tell him. "Yes, I'll come with you tonight."

He grinned.

"Good," he said just as he stood up. "Now, let's get dressed and face the inevitable."
