Judy’s POV
“Alpha Levi, I wasn’t expecting a phone call from you today. What honor do I have for this?” I asked, trying to sound polite though my heart was beating heavily in my chest as I waited with bated breath for him to respond.
“I wanted to follow up with you about my offer. It’s been a little over a month since I last spoke to you, and I wanted to let you know that my offer still stands. My Elite Gamma Force in the Night Hawk pack is looking for a new recruit. The position is yours if you want it.”
My heart stopped in my chest at his offer. Things were happening so soon; I hadn’t even thought about which Elite Force I wanted to take part in. So much had happened since the competition that my mind was whirling. I wanted to finish up with college before I made any actual decisions, but college was wrapping up in the next couple of weeks, which meant I needed to start thinking about this soon.
“I haven’t really made any decisions yet,” I admitted, not really sure what more to offer him at this time. I was conflicted; I always thought I’d be a part of Gavin’s Elite Force in the Silver Crescent pack, but recent events proved that maybe that wasn’t such a good idea after all. “I’m still kind of thinking over my options.”
“I understand that,” Levi told me. “I had my Beta, Ron, email you with a benefits package along with a salary offer. Look it over and don’t hesitate to use this number to keep in touch with me. The second you give me your okay, everything will be taken care of, and I can get you on the next flight out here.”
“I’d still like to finish college before I join any forces,” I reminded him.
“Of course. From my understanding, you're graduating in a couple of weeks. Take this time to think it over and make a decision. I look forward to hearing from you.”
The line went dead before I could reply. I stared at my phone, dumbfounded. I couldn’t believe that just happened.
I swiped across the screen until I reached my email app. Sure enough, I saw Beta Ron’s name at the top of my email list. I clicked on the email and scrolled through it; my eyes growing wider with each new thing I read. The benefits were unbeatable; they were even offering to pay my housing and travel expenses. I wouldn’t have to pay or lift a finger to move from this region to that region. Not to mention the salary they were offering me made my mouth dry.
Now I was facing a dilemma.
Was this really an offer I was willing to pass up?
Was there anything here worth staying for?
“Hey,” I heard a voice from behind me. “Are you okay? You seem lost in thought.”
I turned to see Lukas frowning at me with a crease between his brows and a worried look on his face.
“Yeah,” I told him; I debated whether or not I should tell him about the phone conversation. “Just a strange phone call.”
“Yeah,” I told him.
Taylor was quiet for a moment, and I could tell he was thinking intently about something, his jaw ticking slightly.
“What?” I asked. “Is there an issue?” There was a bite to my question that even I heard.
He shook his head like he was shaking the thought out of his mind. He put the car in drive and pulled away from the campus.
“Just didn’t know you two were still friends,” he replied simply.
“I mean, does it really matter?” I asked, raising my brows. “It’s not like Gavin cares anymore. Once I made it clear that there was no Gavin and me anymore and that Gavin had his eyes set on someone else, Lukas finally started to give me the time of day again. I’m not letting him ruin my friendship again.”
Taylor didn’t say anything, he just nodded slowly.
The rest of the ride was quiet and a bit awkward. Later that night, as I was getting ready for bed, my phone started to ring. I frowned at yet another unknown number. I mentally prepared myself for what this phone call was about to entail.

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....
