Seducing My Ex’s Father In Law novel Chapter 741

Judy’s POV

“I got here as soon as I could,” Gavin said, rushing through the doors of the clinic. “Where is she?”

I could see the pure panic on his face and the sweat that beaded on his forehead from his run. I doubted he even had his car on him; he was most likely still on post when Irene mindlinked him. He had to have been in his wolf form; he only wore a pair of shorts that rested at his knees.

His full muscular torso was on full display, and my Goddess, he was a gorgeous man.

“Babe, I’m right here,” I tell him, trying to ease some of the tension in the room.

Once his eyes landed on me, he rushed towards me, his arms wrapping gently around my body and pulling me into him.

“What happened?” He asked, murmuring against my hair. “Is it the baby?”

“No, I’m okay,” I whispered. “I don’t really know what it was. But both me and our baby boy are okay.”

The tension in his body didn’t lessen at all.

“I was so worried…” he whispered, peppering kisses along my hairline.

“It had to have been dehydration,” Eliza said, looking over the charts for the hundredth time. “I can’t think of another reason as to why she would pass out like that.”

“All her test results came back normal?” Gavin asked, not releasing his hold on me.

“As far as I could see, yes,” Eliza replied, though I could see the uncertainty in her eyes.

Being dehydrated was an assumption I didn’t believe. I drank plenty of water throughout the day. No, this felt like something else entirely, and I couldn’t figure out what it was. My heart raced at the thought that something could be seriously wrong with me or my baby. I instinctively put my hand on my belly, which Gavin noticed and placed his own hand over mine.

His eyes were warm and his expression gentle.

“It’ll be okay,” he assured me softly. “We are going to be okay.

I nodded, nibbling on my lower lip for a moment before I released it and looked up at Eliza.

“Am I okay to go home?” I asked her.

“Yes, of course,” she answered with a small smile. “I’ll schedule a follow-up appointment for a couple of days from now.”

“Thank you,” I said softly.

Gavin helped me out of bed, his arms still wrapped around me like he was afraid I’d fall over at any moment.

My eyes lit up and my heart swelled as I stared at him.

“You think Matt would want that?” I asked. “Having me adopt him?”

“I think he would be thrilled by it,” he admitted. “I think it’s something he’s been wanting for a while. You know, he told me before I even realized how I felt about you that he wanted you as his mother. That he trusted you the most. He loves you.”

“I guess I have a way with the Landry boys,” I teased.

Gavin laughed, and it was a hearty sound that went straight to my core. My wolf purred in satisfaction, loving how our mate sounded when he was happy.

By the time we got home, I was beyond exhausted. All I wanted to do was take a nice hot bath and then get into bed and sleep for the rest of the night. Much to my appreciation, Gavin carried me inside, where a worried Irene greeted us.

“How are you feeling?” She asked, her eyes scanning me for any signs of injury.

“I’m fine,” I assured her. “Just a little dehydrated.”

I didn’t actually believe that I was dehydrated, but it was the best way to explain for right now.

“Are you sure that’s all it was? I never saw anyone have trouble breathing due to their lack of water,” Irene said, her brows pinching together.
