SEDUCING MY EX’S FATHER IN LAW - Season 5 Episode 69

Matt was out cold, completely oblivious of anything that was happening.

It didn’t take long for the doctor to walk in and take over for the nurses.

“Alpha, I came as soon as I heard,” Dr. Eliza Pierce, Taylor’s mate, walked into the room with a worried expression on her face. “Is it true that he shifted into his wolf form? I was just talking to Taylor about it.”

I had updated Taylor on our way to the clinic through a mindlink. He had already heard something about it when he took Judy home, though, so he was vaguely aware of the situation.

“Yes,” I replied, my eyes glued to Matt’s red and sweaty face. “It took a lot out of him.”

She nodded as she checked his heartbeat and started to draw more blood for testing.

“I’ve never had anything like that happen before,” she said in awe. “A shift at only 8 years old. Have you ever heard of such a thing?”

“No,” I told her truthfully. “It’s never happened before.”

She nodded as she did a bit more testing and wrote information down in her notebook. She adjusted the IV and put a warm and damp cloth over his forehead to lower his fever.

“He just needs some fluids and to rest. The first shift took a lot out of him. I’ll get him some medicine that can help with the healing process because if he were awake, he’d be in a lot of pain. This is kind of his body’s way of protecting itself,” she explained. “But he’ll be okay.”

I was too frozen to say much. I waited until she gave him the medication, and then she jotted a few more things in her notebook before leaving.

I leaned back in my seat, staring at Matt for a long time. It was late in the evening, and I thought about calling Judy to update her… but just as I swiped across my phone and saw her name, I stopped myself.

Judy wasn’t his mother. She wasn’t my wife… she wasn’t even my girlfriend. There was no reason to update her on anything. Then again, she was there when it happened… maybe she would want to know…

I sat there for a long while, contemplating whether or not to call her. But before I could fully decide, there was a knock on the door, and before it opened.

I was surprised when Judy walked in, her face twisted with worry, and it was clear she’d been crying. My brows furrowed; Taylor must have told her that I was here… but my question was, why was she crying?

When she saw me staring at her across the room, she quickly made her way towards me, her arms wrapping around her body like she was trying to keep herself together.

“Why didn’t you tell me he was here?” She asked in a whisper, not wanting to wake Matt, no doubt. “Is he okay?”

“He’ll be fine,” I told her, my eyes remaining on hers. “What are you doing here?”

“Did you not think I’d want to be here?” She asked, stopping only inches from me. “Of course I’d want to be here for him, Gavin. How could you not tell me he was in the clinic like this?”

Tears filled her eyes, and for a second, I felt guilty.

Without much thought, I wrapped her in my arms, pulling her into my chest. She sucked in a sharp breath at the sudden movement, but aft a second, she melted in my embrace, wrapping her own arms around my waist, burying her face in my chest.

“I didn’t want to bother you with this,” I admit, my lips brushing across her hairline.

“I should have called.”

She nodded as tears soaked my shirt.

“Yes, you should have.”

I furrowed my brows again; her reaction was odd.

“This isn’t just about Matt being in the clinic. What else happened? What’s wrong?” I asked her.

She was quiet for a moment, and I honestly didn’t think she was going to respond,

but then she pulled back and looked up at me through her tear-streaked face.

“So much has happened,” she whispered; her eyes were uncertain, and it pulled at my heart, I felt I

wasn’t used to. “I think Sammyineť

somehow working against me my family… I think she’s working with Ethan.”
