Seducing My Ex’s Father In Law novel Chapter 846

Gavin’s POV

I could smell them before I could hear them. I knew immediately that something was wrong. Rogues didn’t usually come this close to my territory. Not like this, at least. Not without a death wish. And they sure as hell didn’t move with this kind of purpose.

They weren’t wandering; they weren’t hunting for food. They were heading straight for my damn house.

I shifted mid-run, muscles cramping, bones reshaping. The wolf took over fast; my vision sharpened, scent exploding in my nose. Two rogues—male, underfed, and desperate.

A growl ripped from my throat, so loud it echoed across the yard.

I wasn’t the only one who smelled the rogues; Erik was there, as well as a few of my other gammas. They were ready for a fight. I turned to Erik, my wolf’s eyes blazing with pent-up fury.

“I need you to check on Judy,” I told him. “And Irene and Matt. I need to make sure my family is safe. There are gammas inside still, but I need someone I trust to keep an eye on them.”

“I need to see Irene,” he growled back through our shared mindlink.

“I need you to do this for me, Erik. Make sure my mate is okay. Irene is strong and can handle her own for a minute. I doubt any rogues got inside, but I need to be sure that my family is safe. All of them.”

Erik’s large wolf nodded his head before he turned and darted towards the villa. I didn’t waste any more time; I turned back towards the rogues. The first rogue lunged towards the steps leading up to the back door. I slammed into him before he got halfway, teeth tearing into his shoulder. He yelped but kept fighting like something bigger than fear was pushing him.

The second rogue darted along the fence, and Taylor barreled into him, knocking a snow patch. They rolled, sapped, clawed, and kicked up dirt. I didn’t even realize Taylor had joined the fight until he was there. His wolf was large and prominent as he swung around to face me; blood already in his teeth from a recent rogue he had fought.

I stared at my Beta with pride.

The rogue I had tackled moments ago twisted beneath me, foam at his mouth; his eyes were glazed over. I finished him fast, snapping his neck cleanly. No hesitation and no mercy.

Taylor ended his rogue a few seconds later, panting hard as blood dripped down his jaw.

“You good?” He asked through our shared mindlink.

I didn’t answer him.

I lifted my head, scanning upward until I found the window. Until I found her silhouette. I knew she was watching me, and my heart ached at the thought of her seeing the gruesome scene before her.

“Who?”

“The future Luna. We came to bring her back…” the rogue growled.

My blood ran cold.

Judy. They came here for Judy. That meant they knew the truth about her… they knew that she was the true Blackwell Heiress. They knew she was the witch and the true owner of the Moon Gem.

My heart slammed against my ribcage. Without thought, I snapped his neck, killing him instantly. I turned and ran towards the villa doors, shoving them open; the door rattled on the hinges. My heart was still pounding when I stormed up the stairs, my breath ragged.

I burst through the bedroom door, and Judy whipped around from the window, her eyes wide and her breathing hitched.

“Gavin?” She asked, her heart pounding so loudly that I could hear it.

I rushed towards her and wrapped her in my arms, pulling her into them immiedalty, holding her like I needed the contact just to breathe right.
