Seducing My Ex’s Father In Law

I felt sick to my stomach to the point where I thought I was going to throw up.

"Why would someone want to drug me?" My voice was coming out hoarse and unfamiliar.

"Taylor told me that they think it was because of Daisy Baldwin..." she explained, folding her arms across her chest.

"What does Daisy have to do with any of this?"

"She was the one who stole the Moon Gem and sent it to the auction. She got paid by Alpha Levi, but they think they bribed her in other ways as well..."noveldrama

I put my hand on my belly.

"It was a condition..." I whispered. It wasn't a question because I already knew what I was saying was factual. "She wanted both me and the baby gone... that was her condition for Levi. That's why I'm here... It's all their fault."

"I'm so sorry," Eliza said softly, lowering her gaze. "If I hadn't come when I did..." Her voice trailed off, unable to finish that sentence.

"You saved me and my baby," I said, looking up at her, tears glistening in my eyes. "Thank you..."

She wrapped her arms around me and hugged me tightly.

"Nobody is going to hurt you again. Levi was sloppy, and so were the rogues he used... he's not going to hurt you again. He's running out of options at this point..."

I nodded, hating that tears were burning in my eyes. I suddenly felt so tired and I lay back on the bed, exhausted from all the information I had received.

She gave me a soft smile and adjusted my pillows and blanket.

"Get some more rest," she told me. "You're still working all the drugs out of your system, so I know you are tired. When you wake, you'll feel stronger, and your mate will be by your side."

"Okay..." I told her softly.

Soon, she was leaving the room.

I hated that I couldn't feel Gavin's emotions through our bond; he was still blocking them from me,

probably because he knew I was net

recovering, but I wondered if he could feel my emotions. I wanted to reach out to him and tell him that I loved him. I wanted him to hold me

and tell me that everything was

going to be okay.

I needed to be near my mate. But sleep overcame me, and I suddenly couldn't

keep my eyes open any longer.

When I slept, it was dreamless, though thoughts of Gavin covered in blood remained in my mind.

I wasn't sure how long I had been sleeping for barely registered the sound of the door opening and

shutting the soft click jolting monet slightly but not enough to wa Penet

me

entirely. I thought for a moment that it was Eliza. She mentioned locking the door earlier and that she only had access to open it unless she gave it to someone she trusted. But I don't remember her locking the door when she left the last time.

My wolf stirred uncomfortably, which made me uncomfortable as well. A pit of anxiety formed in my chest as I opened my eyes slightly to see who my visitor

was.

My heart stopped in my chest when I saw the person standing over me. I had to be seeing things; there was no way he was here... he was supposed to be banished and gone for good. But instead, he was standing over my hospital bed, with a darkened look in his eyes and a crazed expression marring his features.

“Ethan?” I asked, my voice coming out barely above a whisper. "W... What are you doing here?" There was a slight tremble in my words as I stared up at my ex- mate.

"I came back for you..." He said, his tone dripping with malice. "I came back for

what is mine, and I'm not leaving unless you are with me."

"What are you talking about?" I asked him, shaking my head. "I'm not yours anymore."

He grinned, but it didn't meet his eyes.

"That's where you are wrong, Judy. You will always be mine, and I'm about to show you just how much own you. But first..." he reached into his back pocket and took out a knife, a long silver blade that sparkled under the lighting and made my body shudder. "I'm going to correct a wrong... that baby shouldn't have ever existed... it should be mine. Don't worry, I'll get you pregnant as soon as this one is gone."

With that, he lunged at me, the blade aimed directly for my stomach.
