Seducing My Ex’s Father In Law

"I need you to call that auction and find out who put that gem on the list," Gavin

said, taking hold of my hand and guiding me out of his mom's room.

"You don't really think she'd steal it, do you?" Donna asked, trailing after us. I

could hear the worry in her voice, and I started to feel bad. If she was truly

deceived by Daisy, it meant everything she knew was a lie.

"That's what we need to find out," Gavin said as we made our way down the

stairs. "Regardless, Judy and I are going to that auction on Saturday. We can't let

anybody get to that gem. But I need you to find out the truth about Daisy. I'll send

Taylor over in the morning, and you can investigate it tomorrow. But call the

auction tonight and see if you can get the gem pulled. It belongs to you, so that

might be enough to retrieve it."

Donna nodded as we stopped at the front door. She looked uneasy; her mind

clouded with thoughts.

Gavin turned to look at his mother.

"I know this wasn't your fault," he told her gently. "But we need to remain calm if

we want to figure this out. There's no use in dwelling on what can't be controlled."

She looked up at him, tears filling her eyes, and then she nodded slowly.

"I'm so sorry..." she whispered. "I had no idea."

"I know."

She then looked at me, more tears filling her eyes.

"Are you really carrying my grandpup?" She asked me, much to my surprise.

I put my hand on my belly, feeling my nerves jostling.

"I am," I told her.

Gavin put an arm around me, pulling me close to his side, a show of affection and

protection that made me melt.

She stepped closer to me, making Gavin tense, though the look in her eyes was

anything but vicious.

A small smile tipped the corner of her lips.

"Thank you for being there for my son when I was too blinded," she whispered.

I nodded slowly, feeling my heart swelling.

She blinked away the tears in her eyes, and then a stoic expression surfaced on

her face as she turned to her son.

"We'll get it back," she said, determined.noveldrama

Gavin nodded in response. He gave his mom a gentle kiss on the cheek before

he took hold of my hand and pulled me out of the manor.

"Where to now?" I asked him as we hurried towards Erik's waiting car.

"We have a party to get to," he told me. "And tomorrow, we figure everything else

out."

I nodded.

I wasn't really in the mood for a

party tonight, but I wanted to see my

family and friends, and plus, I

wanted to support Sampson and

Lucy while they introduced

themselves officially as the new

Alpha and Luna of the Redmoon

pack. They deserved that much at

least.

I was expecting the Redmoon pack

to show up at the packhouse, but I

wasn't expecting a majority of the

Silver Crescent pack to be there as

well. My mouth nearly dropped when

I saw how huge the party was. We

could hear the music playing before

we even pulled up to the packhouse.

People were outside in the front, the

back, and all inside.

I looked at Gavin nervously, not used to this number of people all in one place. He

gave me a reassuring smile and squeezed my hand as he helped me out of the

car.

"Come on," he said, wrapping an arm around my shoulders and keeping me close

to his side.

As soon as we started to pass the

crowds of people, eyes turned in our

direction. It was surreal having

everyone bow as we walked by

them; Dknew it had nothing to do

with me and everything to dowith

Gavin, but still, but association, it still

felt surreal. Gavin didn't let me go

the entire time, not even when we

were inside.

I immediately spotted Nan and Chester; Nan was holding Emalyn in her arms, and

Chester was staring admiringly at her. Her diamond engagement ring glistened on

her finger, catching the light from the chandelier that hung high on the ceiling.

My parents were with Sampson and Lucy, introducing them to a few other

packmates. Lucy spotted me and she smiled, excusing herself from Sampson's

side to join me.

"Hey, you came!" She came, wrapping me in her arms. Gavin reluctantly released

me so I could embrace my friend.

Of course I did. Did you really think I'd miss this?" I asked her, hugging her back

tightly.

"There are so many people here. I didn't expect this outcome when we sent out a

notice about the party," she breathed. "Two packs are in this packhouse right now.

It's insane."

"They wanted to welcome the new Alpha and Luna," I told her. "It's been a while

since the Redmoon pack had anyone, and they are excited."
