His Nanny Mate By Eve Above Story

Chapter 71: End of the Line

Moana, The gap that existed between Edrick and I could never be bridged; I knew that now.

Our ride home was silent. The steak that I could still taste on my tongue now tasted foul. To think that I had spent the entire day feeling as though we could have some semblance of normalcy; even if we never became romantically involved, why couldn’t we still be proud of what we had created between us? Why did he always have to hide me and Ella? Would the new baby also face the same struggle of having a father who didn’t want anyone to know about his or her existence?

We went home that night, still without a word spoken between us. I took Ella to bed with only a brief word of thanks for everything he did that day, but after that, I didn’t look at him again.

On Monday morning, I awoke to the sound of someone knocking on my door.

“Come in,” I called, sitting up and rubbing my eyes. The door cracked open and Selina poked her head in.

As we took the elevator down, I realized that this was only the second time that I’d ever seen her going out into public, with the first time being my first day of employment.

On the way to the hospital, Selina explained that the hospital we would be going to was a special werewolf hospital that was actually owned by the Morgan family, so I would get the best treatment; not that I couldn’t have gathered that myself, just from the enormous modern building with the Morgan family logo on the sign. When we walked into the hospital, I was even more taken aback by how sleek and clean the hospital was. The hospital I went to for the abortion was nice, but this one was even better — and when we took the elevator up to the obstetrics and gynecology
