Seducing My Ex’s Father In Law Novel

Chapter 860 Judy's POV Daisy Baldwin stood at the front gates, as if she belonged there. She tucked her short blond curls behind her ear and tried to keep her head held high, as she always did. However, I could see the tension in her shoulders and the way she kept looking around, as if she were afraid she would be found at any moment. "Daisy is here?" Irene asked, her hands dusty with cheese. I noticed my friends were all staring at me, their eyes wide. "She is," Adam confirmed, nodding his head at the tablet that clearly showed Daisy waiting at the front entrance.

"We need to tell my father," Irene said as she reached for her phone. "Wait," I blurted before she could pull up Gavin's number. I turned to look at her, holding out my hand to stop her from calling him. I felt the sizzling crackle spark my fingertips, and I quickly pulled my hands back. Magic surged through me, simmering and angry, and it made me feel uneasy. I needed to learn to control this magic before it controlled me. Irene must have noticed the magic because her face went pale. I cleared my throat and stepped away from her.

"Let me just see what she wants," I said, turning back to Adam. "I'll walk out and see her.: "That's not a good idea," Irene said, shaking her head. "My father would be furious if he found out." "Well, Gavin's not here, or I'd have him go talk to her," I said, raising my brows at her. "If she's here to talk, then we will talk." "I'll go with you," Erik said as he stood from the table. I nodded, and together we headed towards the front door. "Are you sure this is a good idea?" Irene called after us. "Yeah, maybe Irene's right. Daisy is bad news," Nan agreed.

"If I'm going to be the Silver Crescent Pack Luna, then I can't cower away from a fight if one is presented to me," I said from over my shoulder. "You can't fight!" Irene yelled. "You're pregnant." "I'll make sure she doesn't fight," Erik assured her as he followed me out of the front doors. The front courtyard was bright with late afternoon sun. Guards stood at their posts, hands near their weapons, eyes trained on the iron gate. And there she was. Daisy Baldwin.

The closer I got to her, the more I realized that she no longer looked like the confident puppet she'd been when she was playing everyone and stealing the stone from the Landry's. She looked wrung out. Hollow around the cheeks. Her lips were pale. Her eyes had shadows like she hadn't slept in days. When she saw me, she straightened like a wire being pulled tight. She wrapped her arms around herself like she was trying to hold herself together, and then I saw her lip..... it was swollen and cut in the corner. My eyes narrowed at her as I stepped closer to the gate.

Just before I reached the latch, Erik grabbed my arm gently. "I wouldn't go out there if I were you," he said, his eyes never leaving Daisy. "The Alpha wouldn't want you to go near her." I knew he was right, and I should compromise. Gavin was going to be upset once the found out that I was even entertain found I wars, entertaining Daisy at this point, but had to be honest, I was curious New ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄhapters are published on finḑnovel.net about what she wanted. I folded my arms across my chest. "Okay, I'm here," I told her.

"What do you want, Daisy?" Daisy's eyes flickered to Erik briefly before they fell on me again. She sucked her bottom lip in her mouth, and I wasn't sure if I was mistaken or not... but she looked almost nervous. "I need your help," she finally said, her voice sounding strained. "With what?" I asked, annoyance clear in my tone. "I know you owe me nothing-" "I'm glad you know that," I said, cutting her off and raising my brows. "You shouldn't be here, Daisy.

After what you did..." "I stole from a family who took something from another family," she clipped, pressing her lips together and creating a firm line. "I did what I had to do." "Why did you have to do it?" "Because of my mate," she blurted. "He made me... he told he'd end this pain that he put me through if I did what he said He knew my sister had once been married to Gavin Landry and he wanted me to use that to my advantage. My ears rang at her admission, and I stared at her with my mouth gaping open. "I'm sorry...

your what?" If she had a mate this entire time, then why was she after Gavin? Her cheeks flushed as if she could hear the question without me speaking. "My mate," she said, shifting her gaze to the ground. "He's not my fated mate. But he did mark me years ago and had been keeping me around without much love." I blinked. "You have a chosen mate?" I asked. She nodded, her eyes briefly meeting mine. "I do....." she said almost hesitantly. "It's a long story... but it wasn't really my choice." My heart stopped in my chest.

"You were forced to mate with someone?" I asked, my brows pinching together. She nodded her head once. "I was told that my only hope of breaking this bond is the host of magic," she continued, meeting my eyes. "For a long time, I thought that was Lita, so she agreed to help me if I helped her figure out how to unlock her magic. By then, she already had the Moon Gem back...she couldn't figure out how to getthe magic from the Gem and put it inside of herself where she thought it belonged. I was the first and only one she's told that she wasn't able to get the magic out of the gem.

For everyone else, she lied and told them she was too tired to practice magic, but she could feel it inside of her."
