Levi paused for a moment so he could clear his thoughts. After clearing his throat and taking a deep breath, he continued.
“So naturally, he butt heads with my father, who was the Alpha in charge at the time, and turned into this rivalry. I was rivals with him before I was rivals with Gavin. It wasn’t until the Blackwells went into hiding that I became rivals with Gavin. But our families didn’t get along, and we would fight back and forth for years. And then after an incident, the eldest Blackwell woman… Zachary’s mother… put a curse on the entire family.”
My heart stopped in my chest. Esme Blackwell put a curse on the Churchill’s? She must have had a good reason to do so. My stomach knotted at the thought; what could the Churchill’s have done to them to cause this?
“She linked the Churchill bloodline with Meg. So, if she dies…we all die.”
My mouth fell open.
“What?” I gasped.
He nodded and rolled his eyes.
“She was a reckless child… always getting herself into trouble. We had to keep her in line most of the time, but she was always running off. I was only a kid at the time, but I remembered how my father would yell at her whenever she ran off, and he would often lock her in her room. He was worried that she’d end up getting herself killed, and if that happened—”
“Your entire family dies,” I whispered, my eyes wide with realization. “She gave your family an expiration date. No matter what, if she dies of old age, your whole family will end up dead.”
“Exactly,” he muttered. “We still aren’t sure why she chose Meg of all people to link us to, but that was her choice. Then she ended up falling for a rogue boy, and my father went ballistic. He kept having her brought back to the manor and locked in her room, but she kept finding a way to escape and be with that boy. So, eventually, my father had the boy killed. Meg found out she was pregnant, and she took off; I’m sure you already know that part of the story, though.”
“And then your family went after her because if she ends up getting herself killed…. Your entire line will die,” I whispered, my eyes wide. “That explains almost everything. The reason you all treated her the way you did… the reason she ran… the reason you went after her in the first place. That’s why she was so scared…” I paused for a moment, and then I lifted my gaze to meet Levi’s. “She doesn’t know…”
It wasn’t a question.
The corner of Levi’s lips twitched, and I could tell he was fighting back a smile.

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?...
