Seducing My Ex's Father In Law

"It's not fair that you are letting him dictate your lie like that. How can you scare so easily, having Lycan blood?" I asked him, narrowing my eyes.

"It's because I have Lycan blood that makes it scary. I was on another Lycan's territory. There are laws..."

"It's my fault for not telling you in the first place," I told him, guilt washing over me. "I will take he hit for that. If I need to speak to your uncle="

"No," he said quickly. "It's not that simple. I should have been able to detect that it was his territory. It's not your fault, so please don't say anything to my uncle. It would only make things worse."

"It's not fair that we can't be friends," I told him.

He was chewing on the corner of his lip for a moment, his eyes downcast.

"Maybe if you weren't sleeping with him," he murmured.

My cheeks flushed at the accusation, though I knew he was right. It was because I was sleeping with Gavin that made him so possessive over my male friendships. All Alphas were possessive like that, but Gavin was extra possessive. At least he was... now it seemed like he won't talk to me, and I hated feeling ignored.

Lukas finally glanced at my face and noticed the sorrowful expression... he also noticed slight unease and sadness were lingering in my gaze, and he misinterpreted it as him going too far.

"I'm sorry," He said softly. "I didn't mean it like that. I just wish things could have been different."

Without another word, he turned and left, leaving me alone with my thoughts and aching heart. I wish things could have been different, too.

Gavin usually picked me up from school on the nights that I had to tutor Matt, but instead of it being Gavin, I was surprised to see Beta Taylor.

Matt was also in the backseat of the car with his backpack pressed against his chest. He gave me a small smile as I slid into the seat.

“Hi,” I said to him, and then turned to Taylor, who was watching me with a wary expression. "I wasn't expecting this."

He nodded.

"I was told to bring you home. Master Matthew will be joining you at your family home for tonight's tutoring session."

My heart sank.

"Am I not allowed at the Villa?" I asked him, daring myself to get answers.

He was quiet for a moment as he put the car in the drive and drove away from the school. I could tell he was trying to figure out how to teff me something, and my heart hammered against my chest until he spoke again.

"It's just better this way," he finally murmured.

I wasn't sure what that meant, and I wanted to press the issue even further, but something about his expression silenced me.

Matt was oddly quiet as well, which was unusual. He's usually talking my ear off
