Seducing My Ex’s Father In Law novel Chapter 97

Chapter 0097

Judy’s POV

I woke up to the sounds of murmurs nearby; my memory of what had happened was a bit foggy and my head ached like I was hungover, but I don’t remember drinking that much. I had mainly water with a few sips of white wine at dinner, but it wasn’t enough to make me hungover. I don’t even remember falling asleep.

My fingers twitched as I came to, and I could feel the cold concrete ground beneath me. That was part of the reason why my body was aching. Then I felt the cold metal chains around my wrists and the burning that the silver invoked. Silver was a werewolf’s weakness, and I knew before I even opened my eyes that I wouldn’t be able to channel my wolf or send out a mindlink to anyone in my pack.

I also knew that I was in danger.

A slight memory came back to me, and I remember running and laughing with Irene by my side. Was Irene here with me? Did she somehow set me up? Maybe she didn’t believe me when I told her that nothing was going on between Ethan and me. Maybe this was part of her plan; to make sure the guards didn’t follow us so she could kidnap me and possibly kill me.

Another memory resurfaced and I remembered watching Irene fall to the ground after a man attacked her. He stabbed her in the neck with a syringe and she passed out immediately. My heart hammered in my chest, and I knew my breathing was unsteady. I tried to keep it steady just in case I wasn’t alone wherever I was.

I could hear the light whispers from some men nearby and I tried to channel my wolf so I could hear better, but to no prevail. However, their voices grew louder as their footsteps neared. I might not have my wolf senses, but the moment they were close enough, I could smell them. It was the same sickly scent from before.

Rogues.

“I thought we were only paid to capture one girl,” one of the rogues asked in a harsh whisper.

“So, we’ll ask for more money,” another said with a dark chuckle. “Who are they anyways?”

“I don’t fucking know. I didn’t ask questions. He gave me a price and I told him no problein,” another rogue muttered. “I’m starving; let’s get some food while we wait for them to wake up. It’ll probably be a while. We used a lot of wolfsbane.”

They sauntered off; the sounds of their shoes growing more distant and then I heard the opening and shutting of a door, along with a lock.

So far, telling from their voices, there were 3 of them. But I remembered there being more than that before I passed out.

The problem was, I had no idea how we were going to leave here. I knew one thing for sure; these men thought I was still passed out and they weren’t going to do anything until we were both awake, which meant I had to act like I was asleep when I heard them returning.

I rested my back against the wall and took a deep and shaky breath, coughing slightly at the musky feel of the dusty air. I wasn’t sure how I was able to recover from the wolfsbane so quickly, but I knew Irene would probably be asleep for a while. I reached for her slowly sliding her across the floor so her head could be rested on my lap. I slowly stroked her hair, humming softly to her. I didn’t want her to be afraid when she woke up.

I’m not sure how long we remained like that for; there were no windows and there was no clock, so I had no idea what time it was. But I know it had to have been hours at least. I was groggy and my head was bobbing up and down when I heard the shoes approaching. I quickly scooted Irene off my lap, so her head was rested on the ground again and then I rested my head beside hers, closing my eyes.
