Seducing My Ex’s Father In Law novel Chapter 777

Judy’s POV

We didn’t end up going to the Blood Thorne Packhouse for dinner this evening. Gavin called Alpha Jeremy and told him I was feeling unwell and that if I wanted to attend the ball on Saturday, I needed to be well rested. Only Beta Taylor and Eliza went to dinner.

Irene told everybody that she was too exhausted to go anywhere, and Nan and Chester disappeared for the evening. I could only imagine what they were up to; then again, maybe I didn’t want to know.

Gavin and I ended up ordering room service, and we cuddled in bed the entire evening. Neither of us spoke about the elephant in the room… my dreams and the connection I might have with the Blackwell family. I knew we were both feeling the strange sense of dread, or a promise that something severe was going to happen in the near future.

I knew for certain that my life was going to change. I wasn’t sure if that meant for the better or for the worse. But I also knew that Gavin was going to stick by me no matter what, and as long as I had him in my corner, I was going to be okay.

My phone chimed, and I let out a breath before I reached for it on the nightstand. I smiled when I saw that it was a text from Nan.

Nan: Sorry, I missed your call earlier. I was kind of… busy.

I let out a breathy laugh, ignoring the raised-brow look Gavin was giving me. I had called Nan earlier to ask her what her plans were after Irene bailed on dinner. Matthew was in our room earlier for the room service we ordered, and with Erik eating with the rest of the gammas, I figured Nan and Chester would want to join us for dinner.

But she didn’t answer her phone.

Me: Busy, huh?

I added a wink emoji. Her response was almost immediate with an embarrassed emoji, making me laugh out loud.

Me: Just wanted to see if you wanted any dinner. But I’m trusting you were taken care of.

Nan: I was very well taken care of

She added a wink emoji as well, and my smile grew wider.

Nan: Have you spoken to Irene? I tried texting, but she didn’t respond.

Me: She said she was too tired and wanted to go to bed early.

Nan: I’m worried about her.

I was about to reply that I was worried too, but then I got a new incoming text message from a different person, and my eyes widened when I read the text in the notification bar.

Tabby: Are you seriously in Blood Thorne and you didn’t think to tell me??

Holy crap, how could I have forgotten that this was Tabby’s main pack? She traveled a lot on the gamma force, so I didn’t think she would be in town, but from her text, I could see that I was very wrong.

Me: Are you in town?

Tabby: We came back a couple of weeks ago and aren’t scheduled to leave again until next week. Can we meet up?

I told her the hotel we were staying at, and against my better judgment, I gave her Irene’s room number as our meet-up location. Then I pulled up my text thread with Nan.

Me: Meet me at Irene’s room if you can pull yourself away from your mate.

“Thank you for being there for her in a way that I cannot.”

I smiled at him.

“Even if she wasn’t your daughter, I’d still do this for her. She’s my friend and I care about her,” I tell him as he wraps me tighter in his arms.

“You’re a good friend,” he whispered into my hair.

I kissed his lips, savoring his taste for a moment before I pulled back.

“I need the key to Irene and Matt’s room. I don’t want to risk alerting Irene that we are there because she will most likely refuse us.”

He raised his brows, but I could see a bit of humor in his eyes.

“So, your idea of a night is ambushing her?”

My smile only grew wider.

“Exactly.”

Within the hour, Nan and I were meeting at Irene’s door. I unlocked the door with the key-card, the spare that Gavin had of their room for emergencies. Matt was sitting on the couch playing video games, and he quickly spun around when he heard the door open.

He let out a breath when he saw that it was just me.
