Seducing My Ex’s Father In Law

Gavin's POVnoveldrama

As the morning light made its way through the closed curtains, shining a hazy hue throughout the guest room, my eyes groggily adjusted. I barely slept a wink last night; my wolf had been restless for most of the night, but on top of that, sleeping in someone else's territory was never easy for me.

I sat up in bed, glancing at the window before I slid out of bed and padded my way to the curtains. I had a nice view of the park from my window. It was a large pack and it stretched on for miles. He houses were fairly modern and separated into different neighborhoods, grouped in sections. A majority of the homes had some damage from the recent rogue rampage when they broke in, though the rogues didn't reach the further region of the pack, thankfully for them.

I could see the tree line that led into the forest, a large section was completely obliterated, along with a small section of the pack, from the explosion the other day. It sucked that this was happening to them; despite this being Levi's territory, this pack wasn't bad. I hated to admit it, but I kind of liked Alpha Levi.

I wasn't a fan of his Beta, Aiden, though. It was also evident that he and Taylor didn't get along. They seemed to have known each other from before, which I'm not sure how they know one another when I haven't met him before yesterday. I wanted to ask Taylor about it, but he didn't seem like he wanted to talk about it, so I made a mental note to ask him about it later.

The rest of my chosen Gammas had arrived late last night and were settled in the Gamma house, getting ready for a day of hunting and patrolling. They were pretty much occupying the forests and the border during our time here. They were using all the resources we could muster to find the ones responsible for the attacks on the Redcliff pack.

Our suspicion was that it's an inside job, and we needed to find a proper motive. Taylor was going to spend some time going through the security footage, while I spent the day with Sampson, helping him get a handle on things. Taylor's flight back to our pack was late tonight. I needed him back home to keep an eye on things and my business. I was also having him bring back a sampling of that masking spray that Spencer had given me last night. He had me put it on to shield my scent; I thought it was strange that I couldn't smell any of the gammas in the pack, and even some of the packmates. But when Spencer explained that they mask their secrets for protection, my curiosity was piqued. This masking spray was something that wasn't developed outside of this pack. It wasn't something that I had heard of until yesterday, and I was curious about it.

If it was legit, it was something I wanted for my own pack as well. So, Taylor is bringing someone home with him so our researchers can study it and duplicate it if deemed safe.

I knew one thing for sure: today was going to be a long day.

I sighed and went into the attached bathroom, bringing my clothes for the day with me. I settled on a button-up shirt and a pair of jeans. I put my clothes on the bathroom counter and stared at myself in the mirror; I looked like a mess.

I looked away, unable to deal with the dark bags under my eyes and the worn-out look in my eyes. Truth be told, that look hadn't left my eyes in weeks. Not since I was with

Judy... not since I had her in my

arms. i

I ignored the pathetic whimpering of my wolf as Hurned on the shower, stripped off my pajama pants and boxers, and stepped into the water let the water soak my body for a while before I lathered it with soap. After I washed and rinsed my hair, I stepped out of the shower, grabbed a towel, and wrapped it

around my waist.

I brushed my teeth, did my hair, and then I put my clothes on before leaving the bathroom.

As I left the room and headed downstairs to the main section of the packhouse, my wolf's tension returned. I wasn't sure what was wrong with him, and what about this pack was driving him almost crazy.

Sampson was in his office when I arrived, and as soon as he saw me, he quickly stood to his feet.

"Alpha Landry," he greeted. "Good morning. I hope you slept well. Did you happen to get yourself some breakfast in the dining hall?"
