Gavin’s POV
When I got to the mansion, I wasn’t expecting to see guests. I scowled as I stared at Judy who looked like a deer caught in the headlights. I could hear her heart pounding against her chest and her breathing picked up, like she was just caught red handed.
“Who gave you permission to have a party in my mansion,” I asked folding my arms across my chest. Of course, I wasn’t really upset, but seeing her squirm was just too much fun. I knew she was here, and I wanted to ask her to join me for dinner tomorrow evening. I also wanted to check on Irene and the baby while I was at it so I figured I’d stop by instead of calling. Though I was here earlier in the day to drop Judy off, I didn’t stay long, nor did I really come inside.
“A party?” She asked, raising her brows as she glanced at Tabby and Shirley. “This is hardly a party.”
I realized there was one person missing from this get together; well, technically two, but I figured Nan was with her mate Chester in his room.
“Where’s Irene?”
They all looked at one another and I could practically smell the tension radiating off them. it immediately put me on alert.
“Probably asleep,” Judy settled on.
I could tell immediately that she was lying; not only could I smell the lie, but she had obvious tells. Like the way she tugged at her fingers or subtly licked the corner of her lip. I narrowed my eyes at her and was about to say something, but then I heard Irene’s voice.
“Dad?” She asked, walking into the kitchen, Chuck trialing in behind her. Both of them looked disheveled and they reeked of sex. A growl escaped my lips as I glared at Chuck, who paled immediately. “W… what are you doing here at this hour? It’s so late.”
“What is he doing here at this hour?” I countered, my eyes never leaving Chuck’s face.
I knew Chuck from past encounters; he was a competitor of the Gamma competition and was a fair fight. If Judy hadn’t won, it would have been him. He was a fair gamma under Jeremy’s jurisdiction, but I didn’t know him personally, which worried me. The last thing Irene needed was another Ethan situation. I knew what she was like when she was interested in a guy, and I didn’t like it.
“We were just leaving,” Shirley said quickly. “Right, Chuck?”
“Uh…” he glanced at Irene, a blush tinting his cheeks. “Yes.”
Irene looked upset by him leaving, but I didn’t give a shit. I wanted him gone and I didn’t want him to come back. My wolf was close to losing control but then in an instant, Judy put her hand on my back, her touch immediately soothing him back into my control. Nobody has ever had that type of effect on my wolf before and it startled me. I whipped around to look at her, my eyes wide for a moment, which seemed to jolt her.
She looked into my eyes for a long moment, suddenly the rest of the room faded away.
“What makes you think it would happen again?” She asked. “Chuck is a great guy and—”
“You don’t know him,” I said, cutting off her words. “You know nothing about him or what he’s capable of, Irene.”
“I’ve spoken to him a few times. We met at the competition…” Irene told me. “You should be happy that he’s a gamma and can properly protect me.”
“I don’t trust anyone I’ve barely met… especially not with my daughter.”
“I think maybe we should just end the conversation here,” Judy suggested, stepping between us, her stance almost protective. “It’s been a long day, and we are all tired.”
Irene nodded in agreement.
“Fine,” I said, relenting.
After another beat of silence, Irene said goodnight and then went to her room. I turned to Judy, my eyes narrowed.

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....
