Chosen By My Mate's Father-in-law novel Chapter 37

Chapter 37: Chapter 37: Privacy

As soon as Gareth entered his house, his Beta greeted him, holding three sleek black boxes.

“These just came for Isabella,” his Beta said. “They are different sets of jewelry for her to choose from for the wedding. Originally, the company wanted to deliver them to the post office this morning, but I changed it to be sent here since the pieces are so expensive.”

“Thank you,” Gareth replied and set down his briefcase on the entry room table. “I noticed her car in the driveway. I’ll bring them to her room for her to look over.” He held out his hand for the boxes.

“Are you sure? I can do it,” his Beta offered.

“It’s no problem,” Gareth dismissed him. “I want to say hello to her anyway.”

He grabbed the boxes and went up his staircase. Gareth did want to say hello to his daughter, but he was also using this as an excuse not to run into Jasmine. He knew that she was here when he walked into his house and was struck with her enticing, sweet scent. Ironically, Jasmine smelled like her namesake. He chastised himself as he nodded hello to Butler Jones, who he passed in the hallway.

He was a grown man avoiding his daughter’s tutor. Why was dignity always missing when Jasmine was concerned?

At Isabella’s door, he knocked and waited a moment. With his hand on the door handle, he sighed. His oldest daughter always listened to her music with her headphones. There had been many times when he’d been stuck waiting outside her door because she hadn’t heard him knocking.

Knowing that she would lock the door if she needed privacy, Gareth swung the door open.

And his heart stopped beating.

Jasmine was standing in front of the mirror wearing a short skirt...and only a short skirt. His wolf awoke, growling in his chest with desire. Lust flooded through him as his eyes scanned her full breasts. Under his hot gaze, the young woman’s nipples hardened.

Gareth’s hand tightened on the door handle as he studied her beautiful body. Her golden blonde hair was tied back like usual. Gareth wanted to see what it looked like wild and free-framing her gorgeous face. Her tan skin was smooth, and he already knew that it was as soft as velvet. Gareth wanted those powerful thighs wrapped around his waist.

He thought Jasmine was perfect and that Elliot was the dumbest man alive for rejecting her.

But Gareth hid his body’s reaction as best he could. When their gazes locked together, Jasmine’s expression was one of embarrassed horror—her eyes wide and her mouth gaping. Gareth’s eyes narrowed, and he clenched his hands into angry fists.

“What the hell are you doing half-naked in my daughter’s room?” he snapped, his voice deeper than usual.

Jasmine seemed shocked beyond words and attempted to cover up her breasts by crossing her arms in front of her. But this only pushed her full breasts further up.

Gareth became speechless as his eyes locked on her pink nipples. His wolf howled inside of him, hungrier than he’d ever been.
