Seducing My Ex’s Father In Law novel Chapter 790

“What did he say?”

“He insinuated that the Moon Gem didn’t belong to Lila,” he told me. “As we found out, the purpose of the gem was to lock away Lila’s birth powers because it was too much for an infant to handle. It was supposed to be given to her when she came of age… her blood would activate the gem and her powers would be restored. However, the gem was stolen by my father years ago and kept locked away in a box that blocked all magic. He lied and said it was a family heirloom passed down for generations and that one day it would be given to me once I took the Alpha title. However, he died before it was ever passed to me, and my mother had kept it this whole time.”

I nodded, already knowing this story.

“But Levi mentioned that the stone hadn’t found its rightful owner yet, despite it being with Lila,” Gavin continued, his frown deepening. “Which would mean that she’s not actually the Blackwell heiress. But that doesn’t make much sense because they all treat her like a daughter.”

“Levi didn’t tell you anything else?” I asked. “Does he suspect that someone else is the heiress?”

He shrugged.

“I’m not sure. Getting that little bit out of him was like pulling teeth,” Gavin murmured. “He won’t tell me anything else.”

“Of course he won’t,” I muttered. “Then maybe we should go directly to the Blackwells and speak with them.”

“No,” Gavin said sharply. “That’s the last thing we are going to do. I don’t want you getting too involved in that family, Judy. I don’t trust them.”

“If they are truly connected to these dreams I’m having, then I’m already involved,” I told him, folding my arms across my chest. “I need to know what’s happening to me, Gavin. I need to fix it so I can stop passing out.”

He was quiet for a long moment.

“I have a meeting with Zachary Blackwell later this week. I’ll see if I can get any information out of him, and I’ll let you know,” he said, his tone leaving no room for arguments. “But you aren’t to return to that manor until I say it’s safe.”

“Okay,” I said, leaning back in my seat.

I knew that was as good as I would get, so I decided not to say anything more about the subject. Besides, a low growl coming from behind me jolted my attention elsewhere. I glanced a few rows back and saw Erik struggling against his wolf; his eyes were flashing between gold and black, not like the normal brown eyes he normally has.

My brows furrowed. Matt was looking up at him worriedly; I knew Matt could handle his own if something were to happen, but I wasn’t going to let it get to that point.

“Matt, come sit here,” I say to him as I quickly stand.

Gavin grabbed my arm.

“Stay here as well, I’ll deal with him,” Gavin said, about to stand up.

I worried what “dealing with him” would entail on Gavin’s part, so I shook my head nd stood up quickly.
