Seducing My Ex’s Father In Law Novel

Chapter 914 Gavin's POV "She appears only to be sleeping... everything still seems normal," Eliza said for what felt like the hundredth time in the last 24 hours. Judy hadn't moved from the bed; she hadn't woken up, and nothing seemed out of the ordinary. But she's still asleep, and it worried me more than anything. I hadn't slept since she arrived at the clinic. "You really should get some rest, Alpha," Eliza told me, her voice soft. The room was dimmed, and I sat at Judy's bedside, my fingers entwining with hers. At one point, I thought she was going to wake up.

Her breathing pattern changed, and my wolf sensed that she was at the edge, ready to open her eyes. Her wolf had made herself known to mine, and it stirred something inside of me, but then it went away as quickly as it came. I hadn't spoken... I barely took my eyes away from my mate. Eliza sighed, and before she could say anything more, there was a knock on the door. She let out a breath before she retreated, moving towards the door and opening it. I could smell the scent of my daughter standing there, and the other scent of my son in her arms.

Irene had taken one for the team, caring for the newborn while I stayed with Judy in Eliza's clinic. Of course, she's had the help of my mother and Judy's mother. All I care about is the fact that my son is healthy. Eliza mentioned that he's strong and she can sense how powerful he's going to be... how powerful he already is. "Dad..." Irene said softly after she exchanged a few words with Eliza at the doorway. She handed the baby to Eliza, and Eliza left the room, leaving us alone.

Irene approached me like she was approaching a rabid animal, and then she placed a hand on my shoulder, giving it a gentle squeeze. "How is she doing?" Irene asked, her eyes flickering to Judy's face. "No change," I said, my voice strained from disuse. "She's been through a lot. Eliza said her body just needs to rest. She's going to be okay. But Dad..... my baby brother needs a name..." she reminded me. "Did you decide on one?" I wasn't deciding on a name alone... not without Judy. I know she had a name in mind she wanted to use, but nothing had been settled for sure.

We weren't expecting to have this baby so soon; we thought we had time. "When Judy wakes up, she will name the baby," I said, letting out a breath. "You should go. It's getting late. I need you to go to Taylor and have him take over the office for a while. I won't be leaving here until Judy is awake." I felt Irene's eyes on me, and I knew what she was thinking, even more so when she spoke. "You can't be serious, Dad. You are a Lycan chairman... an Alpha... and a father. You can't postpone your duties. She wouldn't want this," she scolded, her voice cracking at the end.

It's not fair to Taylor, and we can't keep acting as Alpha while you sit here and stare at her while she's sleeping. This isn't healthy, and your baby boy needs you. Matt needs you and damn it, Dão. I need you im not doing okay. I'm hurting, scared, and upset. I can't keep doing this... I'm not this baby's mother. I need you to step up." Without another word, she turned and stormed out of the room. I watched her go; my heart was heavy in my chest because I knew she was right. I was putting everything on hold. Eliza is so sures that Judy will wake up soon enough and recover.

But I wanted to be the first person she saw when she opened her eyes. I wanted to be here for my mate every step of the way. ét But I also knew I had children and a pack to care for. Irene had been going through a lot these last few weeks Someone she thought was Thermate was ghosting her and she was a mess over it. I knew she was trying to hide it, but I could see the pain in her eyes. she had no idea that Chuck was actually in our territory, captured. I stood, about to go after her, but then I felt a hand wrap around mine; gentle and weak. Then, her voice hit me like a train..

"Gavin...?" I blinked and whipped around to face Judy. Her eyes were open, and she was looking at me. She was actually looking at me. "Judy?" I asked, my voice betraying my emotions.
