I slipped under the covers and rested my head on the familiar and soft pillow. My hands are on my still flat belly. I wondered if we would live here once the baby is born or if Gavin would want to live in the Villa. The Villa would probably be better because that’s where Matt lives, and I wouldn’t want to uproot him from his home. Not that he wouldn’t be comfortable; he has a room here, too, but I knew he liked the Villa better; plus, it was closer to his school.
As the thoughts of my future with Gavin roamed through my head, I started to drift off to sleep.
For a moment, I thought I was dreaming when I smelled his scent. I thought I dreamt of his strong arms wrapping around my body and pulling me flush to his chest from behind. I thought I imagined it when I felt his soft lips brushing across the nape of my neck, inhaling my scent, and letting out a soft breath in contentment.
I let out a soft moan as I wiggled against him, feeling more comfortable than I had when I first fell asleep. I’m not sure how long I had been asleep for, but my senses were becoming more alert by the second.
“Go back to sleep,” he whispered, holding me even tighter. “I didn’t mean to wake you.”
“What are you doing here?” I asked him sleepily, a small smile tugging at the corner of my lips.
“Did you really think I could stay away from you for an entire night?” He asked, nuzzling his face in the crook of my neck.
I smiled.
“I’m glad you’re here,” I said, turning around to face him.
He had the cutest lopsided grin as he looked down at me; his eyes were stormy with something I couldn’t figure out, but it went straight to my core.
“You are?” He asked, rubbing his nose against mine.
I closed my eyes, basking in his nearness, loving how affectionate he was with me now that we finally admitted our feelings to one another and discovered that we are second-chance mates.
“Yes,” I said, brushing my lips across his. “I've missed you today.”
He deepened the kiss, allowing his tongue to slide into my mouth and tasting me like his entire life depended on it. He kissed me like he was parched, and I was his last sip of water.
I moaned into his mouth, melting into him as he tightened his hold on me.
“I never want to be apart from you again,” I whispered, my mind still clouded and dazed from his proximity.
His chest rumbled with suppressed laughter, though he was terrible at hiding it because his shoulders shook.
I chuckled too.
Gavin was talking to Chester about something, helping him cook, which was certainly a sight. My heart fluttered at the sight of him, and I couldn’t help the smile on my face.
“Holy shit,” Nan said, her eyes glued to her phone.
“What is it?” Irene asked, frowning at her.
“I just saw Jenna’s I*******m,” Nan said, her eyes wide.
“Jenna Cash?” Irene asked.
Nan nodded.
Jenna is Ethan’s sister; I hadn’t thought about her in a long time. She never liked me and made it very known that I was scum beneath her shoes. I tried hard to avoid her this past year, not wanting any more confrontation from the Cash family.
“What’s going on?” I asked, stepping further into the kitchen and drawing the attention of everyone.
“They are moving,” she said, looking up from her phone to look at me. “The entire Cash family is moving out… today.”

The readers' comments on the novel: Seducing My Ex’s Father In Law
This story is all over the place. i'm trying my best to keep going because he would be so good The writer and editor communicated at least a little. (Yes I understand its 1 maybe 2 people writing and tending to the story) However, everyone needs to be on the same page. The characters names continue to change: Rachel at first then her name changed to Rebecca, Ethans sister name is now jenna. some times they talk in 3rd person which I'm sure is a accident when its in that characters POV. How did we do a time jump 5 years making Matt 13 with Judy's son being 5 years old but when we get to the Blackwell story line he's nine again and she's still pregnant using her time with matt to gain experience with her son. What happened to the time jump....
Is it just me, or do they add chapters daily for one week then leave you in suspense for a week before they start posting again? The book is amazing, but it's frustrating being in such high excitement and thrill then being left with your mind boggling....
Thank you for continuing to write this story! Trying to be grateful for the recent 2 small chapters a day, however due to enjoying it so much, wish they were more and longer....
Could the author please get the names correct…CHESTER is Nan’s mate —NOT Chuck. I don’t know who is writing these chapters, but I do not think it is the original author. Considering the original author has quite a few ongoing stories, she must have handed this one off to someone else. Very disappointing!...
Has the author forgot her own story? Didn't lila/Racheal date gavin when he first got Mathew? Meaning that she's the same or similar age as gavin! Now it's changed that she's born on the same day as Judy......
This book has gone off the rails. First there was a Five Years Later chapter where everyone had kids and Irene was marked and pregnant by Chuck and now they're not mated and Chuck is a slime ball. Make it make sense....
I don't understand thus story. Didn't she just win 5 million in the gamma games? Why is she living with people and not in her own place?...
No updates/new chapters since 10/14/2025???? This is so frustrating for those of us who have followed this book/author from the beginning! So disappointing!...
Why no updates posted since 9/20/25????...
Well that.....sucked. That can't seriously be the ending? Tf?...
