Judy’s POV
“We have to get him outside,” Gavin said, his face twisted with concern as he stared down at Matt.
Matt was about to shift into his wolf for the first time, and he wasn’t even 8 years old yet. No wolf had ever surfaced before the age of 18, so this was something neither of us expected to ever happen… especially not to Matt. He was screaming and growling as his bones broke and snapped into a new place. The pain that was evident on his small face was heartbreaking to see.
I nodded in agreement to Gavin’s words, but moving him wasn’t going to be easy.
The first shift was always the most painful; seeing it happen to someone so young was gut-wrenching.
I helped Gavin lift Matt into his arms; Matt squirmed and screamed in agony as his snapping bones sounded in the room. As we hurried out of the room, Irene was still sobbing and covering her mouth with her hands. Something weird was happening, and I couldn’t help the nasty feeling I was getting in the pit of my stomach. But I pushed it aside for right now and focused my attention on Matt.
Irene followed after us as we made our way down the stairs and towards the back door. As we reached the outside, Gavin placed Matt on the ground and stepped back. I could see the turmoil and worry on his face, his eyes never leaving Matt’s face.
“It’s going to be okay,” I said softly. “He’ll be okay…”
Gavin nodded, swallowing hard. I watched his Adam’s apple bob as he did so. Matt’s howl brought my attention back to him, and I saw fur breaking free from his delicate skin. I knew it felt like razors piercing his flesh. The wolf’s fur was sharp, and it hurt during the first shift.
Irene stood off to the side, watching in horror as her brother transformed for the first time.
It felt like an eternity had gone by before Matt was finally fully shifted.
We weren’t really sure what to say or do in that moment; we stared down at his little runt of a wolf, our jaws dropped. He looked like Gavin’s large black wolf, only significantly smaller. The anger and agony that were once in his eyes were completely taken over by shock and realization. Despite his being in his wolf form, I knew Matt was consciously still in there. He looked between Gavin and me, and once his eyes landed on Irene, he snarled at her, making her jump back.
Gavin was quick to block Matt’s view of Irene, and he had a low growl in his throat as well, a warning to the small wolf to back off.
Not before long, Gavin was stripping off his clothes, making me blush wildly. He was naked for a long time, though; he shifted into his wolf form so he could communicate with Matt.
I turned to Irene, who was shaking and crying, her face buried in her hands as she sobbed.
“He’ll be okay, Irene,” I assured her. “Don’t blame yourself for this. He’s going to be fine. He’ll forgive you. He knows you love him…”
“No, he doesn’t,” she cried.
I looked towards the forest where Gavin and Matt had disappeared. I knew they were going to take a while, and even after they returned, I knew they had a lot to discuss. Matt’s transformation changed everything.
“How about we get out of here for a bit?” I suggest. “We could go back to the mansion and hang out for a bit.”
She nodded, her eyes drifting over in the direction her father and brother had disappeared.
“Yeah,” she said softly. “Maybe that’s a good idea.”
Beta Taylor was able to drive us back to the mansion within 30 minutes. The further we got from the villa, the more Irene seemed to relax in her seat. She seemed jumpy and on edge, and I felt for her.

The readers' comments on the novel: Seducing My Ex’s Father In Law
Anyone have suggestions for other books like this that are captivating for me to read while I wait for more chapters etc?...
Despite everyone's frustrations with this book, I think it's quite entertaining. I think Gavin and Judy have a long road ahead of them. If/when they're able to finally get on the same page, they still have to deal with his mom. Not to mention Judy has to reconcile with Matthew after abandoning him when she promised she wouldn't; and face Irene with the news that she's carrying a new sibling. Lol, Levi is the least of their concerns. Then there's having the baby. Pretty sure Gavin has untreated trauma associated with Irene's birth. My thoughts are, just be patient, find other books to read in between and enjoy the ride. I think it'll be good....
Anyone Know where we Can Read all of this book 2 chapters a day is a joke And waiting is killing me I’ll just want to end this book !!...
I never really read these books, but came across this one and annoyingly got hooked. Do these books just go on forever with no resolution? As if so, I’m going to call it a day and write my own ending lol...
Lovely… I just found this book Friday and I’ve finished all that here. How often do they release more and how much at a time?! I’m invested....
So Spencer was “in love” before he even meet her? I used to wake up and read this book but now I let days go past before I read the chapters...
Well heres to the next 300 pages of this never ending story because now Gavin is going to have to save her before Spencer does something even more stupid because Judy is to weak to do anything for herself apparently....
3 chapters we didn't need. Already guessed Spencer was working with Levi and that the attacks were also Levi...
I think of all the things that bother me the most about the rushed writing is the inconsistencies. Judy and Nans room number was initially 606 when they checked in at the island resort for the Gamma Competition, but then was suddemly 906 - which turned out to be needed information later. When they first met, Judy went to Gavin's office the next day and told him about her father's imprisonment and her need for money, but then later the author made it sound like Gavin had no idea. She won 5 million for takimg first in the competition but then it was eluded to her not have much money and needed cash from the additional tutoring job with Lukas and the position in Levi's elite force. Honestly, the wishy-washy writing makes it feel like Gavin is less of a strong leader and more like he has so much personal drama he cant keep anything straight. It feels like Judy is weaker than the author has intended, as well. I feel like Rachel's return could have been tightened up with more details around her time Gavin instead of making Judy out to be a bit pathetic and desperate for just a sliver of Gavins attention. Her pregnancy was also disappointing because of the rushed plot, the author seemed to have forgotten that Judy gave her virginity to Gavin and no other sexual partners were introduced for her - so who the father of her baby was shouldn't have felt like such a surprise - it felt a bit insulting to her vibe and the character build throughout the hundreds of unnecessary chapters. I believe if the author spent a little more time and cleaned up some of the events with pertinent and necessary details and remove the oddities of over-the-top pieces (like the shower gel and cologne that appeared out of nowhere for Gavin in Judy's condo) this storyline could really be something great and intriguing for readers....
