Seducing My Ex’s Father In Law novel Chapter 802

Judy’s POV

I thought I was prepared for what Erik had to tell me, but I wasn’t. I sat in the front seat because I wasn’t there as a future Luna or as Gavin’s mate… I was there as Erik’s friend, and friends don’t sit in the backseat while their other friends drive. Plus, it was clear Erik needed to talk, and it was hard to do that if I couldn’t actually look at his face.

He was quiet for most of the drive; his knuckles turning white as he clutched the steering wheel.

I was already emotional from the day; I was at my wits' end and decided I wasn’t going to wait for him to tell me the story. I was going to get it out of him one way or another.

“Are you going to tell me what the hell that was in there? Or do I need to bring it up to Gavin and have him get it out of you?”

His jaw clenched.

“This has nothing to do with him…”

“He’s Irene’s father,” I said sharply, my eyes narrowed as I stared at the side of his face. “You upset her, and I want to know why I shouldn’t go to him right now.”

“Because I’m your friend and you wouldn’t do that.”

“I’m his mate and I shouldn’t keep things from him that concern his family,” I said, narrowing my eyes. “Maybe you should convince me otherwise.”

He pressed his lips together.

“He would try to keep her away from me if he knew the truth…” he murmured, and for a moment, I could hear the vulnerability in his voice. It broke my heart to hear it, and I wanted to make it better. Maybe that was the mother in me.

“From the way she looked at you, I would say maybe keeping her away isn’t a bad thing…”

He sucked in a sharp breath.

“He can’t do that…” he said, taking a deep breath. “She’s my mate and I love her…”

My heart stopped at his words; I knew that’s what I had heard earlier, and I had suspected as much, but I just didn’t understand how something like this was possible.

“I’m sorry, did you just say she’s your mate?”

He let out a breath, relenting to my questioning.
