Seducing My Ex’s Father In Law novel Chapter 808

Irene sat on her bed; her face buried in her phone, and her body trembling.

“Hey,” I said, stepping into the room and shutting the door behind me. “I brought you pizza.”

She glanced up at me with a frown before looking back down at her phone.

“I’m not hungry,” she murmured. “Yeah, but you should eat something,” I tell her. “I know you’ve had a long day and you weren’t expecting Erik to bombard you like that, but you need to keep up your strength.”

“Erik is such an asshole for what he did,” he muttered.

“Maybe he’s an asshole for how he went about it,” I admitted. “But his heart was in the right place. He cares about you, Irene.”

“He lied to me.”

“Or maybe he didn’t. Did you stop and think maybe he’s telling the truth? That Chuck isn’t who he says he is? I mean, what kind of mate cheats like that?”

“Ethan cheated on you,” Irene reminded me, making me flinch.

“Yes, and then your father saved me. Maybe Erik is the one who’s going to save you,” I told her, glad that my voice didn’t falter.

She rolled her eyes.

“Doubtful. He’s just another guy wanting to play with my heart, and I’m not going through that again,” she muttered, her voice was bitter and unlike herself. It made me shiver.

“Have you spoken to Chuck since everything went down?” I found myself asking.

She shook her head.

“No,” she muttered. “But I think about texting him all the time. I hate that he hasn’t called to explain things to me.”

I wasn’t sur what there was to explain, but I bit back my words.

“Has Chuck ever asked you for anything?” I asked, changing the subject drastically, and it made her blink.

“Like what?”

“My father would never think that. But if you’re worried, I could help you.”

I raised my brows.

“Help me how?”

“I mean, I have been training my entire life to be a proper Luna, and I know this world better than anyone. I can help you… train you… turn you into a Luna.”

“You’d do that?” I asked. “Why?”

She shrugged.

“Despite everything, you’re still my friend. Plus, I could use a distraction,” she told me. She held out her hand with a sly grin. “Do we have a deal. Help me with my distraction and getting my mind off of all this shit… and I’ll help you be the best Luna you can be.”

I thought about it for a moment before I took her hand; if anything, I can maybe convince her to open up to me more.

“Okay,” I relented. “You have a deal.”
