Seducing My Ex's Father In Law by Caroline Above Story

It was something that had never happened before; I had never lost control of my wolf before, and I wasn't sure what that meant.

"Judy?" Selene said my name as if it weren't the first time she had said it in the past few seconds.

I blinked at her, realizing that I was ignoring her completely.

“I'm sorry. May I use your restroom?” I asked her before I could convince myself that it was a bad idea to leave this room.

She nodded, her frown deepening.

"Of course. It's just out of that door and down the hallway," she said. "Do you want me to walk with you?"

I jumped to my feet, placing the cup on the coffee table.

"No, that's okay. I can find it. I'll be back."

Without another word, I darted out of the parlor, my heart racing in my chest. The halls stretched endlessly, lined with paintings that looked too alive. Every shadow felt like it was watching me. The floorboards creaked under my feet, making stealth impossible.

Halfway down the corridor, my vision fuzzed. The air felt thicker than it was a moment ago... heavier. I braced my hand against the wall and swallowed hard.

"Something's wrong..." I whispered to myself, hoping that Gavin didn't feel what I was feeling.
