Seducing My Ex’s Father In Law novel Chapter 576

Judy’s POV

I found Marlo with the rest of the team towards the back of the packhouse. I could see the worried expressions on some of their faces, and it ate away at my stomach. We were a team of Elite Gamma Warriors; nothing was supposed to worry us. But the look they were sporting wasn’t confident.

“Marlo, what is going on?” I asked, approaching my team leader.

Marlo was a tall and bulky man with tattoos, and he constantly wore his armor and weapons. He turned when I approached him, his stern expression never wavering.

“There was a breach in security during the overnight,” he explained. “We lost lives.”

“How many?”

“Enough to raise alarms,” he replied. “Innocent people. Women… children… it was a blood bath in some homes.”

“What?” I gasped. “How did I not hear about this until now? How did I sleep through it?”

“It was in the northern location of the pack, a long way away from your condo,” Marlo explained.

“And nobody thought to page or call me?” I asked.

I hadn’t been sworn into their pack officially yet and couldn’t until the full moon, so I couldn’t mindlink anyone in the pack or on the team yet.

“We did,” one of my teammates, Drew, said, folding his arms across his chest. “Maybe try charging your pager?”

I frowned as I reached into my bag and pulled out the sleek black pager Marlo had given me on my first day. I clicked the button that turned it on, but it didn’t turn on. I had forgotten to charge it last night… again.

I groaned and shoved it back into my bag.

“Sorry,” I murmured. “I’ll make sure to put it on the charger tonight.”

“You better,” Marlo said, narrowing his eyes. “We needed all hands on deck. We could have used you. You proved yourself to us already, your skills are a must on the force. Don’t let us down again.”

“I’ll make sure not to, Commander,” I told her, nodding my head. “So, what can I do now? Put me to work?”

I pulled the door open and stumbled over to the toilet. I leaned over and let out all of my dinner from last night. I have no idea what is wrong with me; I don’t ever get sick, at least not like this. It wasn’t making any sense.

My head was spinning.

There was a soft knock on the door. I didn’t want to see anyone right now. But I knew I couldn’t, Lucy. I knew from her scent that it was her before she even spoke.

“Judy?” She spoke softly. “Are you okay?”

I took a deep breath before flushing the toilet and standing up. I unlocked and opened the door, pulling it open only to meet Lucy’s concerned gaze. Without a warning, she’s rushing into the bathroom, a worried glint in her eyes.

“Are you okay?” She asked me, turning to look at me. “I saw you running through the room like something was on fire. What happened?”

I opened my mouth to speak, but then she crinkled her eyes.

“Did you throw up?” She suddenly asked, looking around before her eyes landed on the toilet. “You got sick? Have you been sick this whole time?”
