Seducing My Ex's Father In Law Chapter 461

Judy sucked in a sharp breath.

“They just left? And no one knew where they’d gone?” she asked, tears welling in her eyes.

I nodded.

“Yeah,” I murmured. “We searched everywhere, but they had vanished. She left a note saying not to look for them—that they didn’t need us anymore. I knew she’d relapse again, and I never trusted him. I was terrified for Matt.”

“I would be too,” Judy whispered.

“I never stopped looking. He’s my nephew…” I said softly. “I searched for over a year and eventually found them in a rundown apartment in human territory. The place reeked, and Matthew was on the floor, sobbing. Bruises covered his body… and it was obvious he’d been drugged. He was only one year old,” I added, the memory choking me.

She gasped.

“What?” she asked, her eyes wide with horror.

“Yeah… his father was nowhere to be found, but I knew he’d caused the bruises on both my sister and Matt. She was completely out of it, nearly overdosed. I didn’t know how long they’d been in that state. Matt was severely malnourished, dehydrated, and high. I brought them back to the pack immediately. They both spent a long time in the hospital recovering. When Matt was finally stable, I took him home. Cassie stayed hospitalized for a while longer. Eventually, she was moved to our inpatient detox center—which also serves as a psych ward. She’s been there ever since. I convinced her to sign over her parental rights, and I adopted Matthew.”

“And his father? That rogue… is he still out there?”

I shook my head.

“I killed him a few years ago. He was spotted sniffing around. I didn’t know if he was after her or their son—and I didn’t care to find out. I killed him on sight.”

Judy let out a long breath.

“I had no idea any of that happened…” she whispered. “Now I understand why you don’t want her anywhere near Matthew.”

I nodded.

“Yeah,” I said simply.

We sat in silence for a moment until she unbuckled her seatbelt and cleared her throat.

“Thanks for tonight… for standing up for me. It meant a lot,” she said softly. “I’ll see you tomorrow.”

She started to leave, but I reached out and gently pulled her back to me. I kissed her deeply. She sighed against my mouth, kissing me back. After a moment, I pulled away.

“Good night,” I whispered.

Her cheeks flushed, and her eyes darkened with longing, but she nodded and stepped out of the car.

I waited until she was safely inside before driving off.

But I didn’t head home. I kept driving until I reached a familiar building. Shutting off the engine, I stepped out and walked through the front door. The bell chimed as I entered and made my way to the reception desk.

Catherine, the night receptionist, gave me a surprised smile.

“Good evening, Alpha. I wasn’t expecting to see you this late,” she said gently.

I took a deep breath, steeling my nerves.

“This couldn’t wait,” I said. “I’m here to see my sister.”
