His Nanny Mate By Eve Above Story

Chapter 86: Midnight Mistakes

Edrick

I made a mistake that night kissing Moana. As I rushed back to my room and shut the door behind myself, I leaned my head back against the door and cursed at myself under my breath.

How could I be so stupid? I was a fool for not controlling myself around her, and now things were going to be even more confusing between us. Her curves beneath her thin nightgown were too tempting and I couldn’t control the urge to touch her. Even now, I could still feel her belly beneath my hands and the taste of her lips on my tongue. I shook my head to dispel the thoughts, telling myself over and over again that I got too close.

As I got ready for bed and laid down, I kept having to erase the inappropriate thoughts from my mind, but I couldn’t. Would I have to buy Moana a penthouse and keep a distance from her, just like I did with Ella’s mother, Olivia? At the same time, however, it pained my soul to even imagine doing something like that; over the course of just a couple of short months, I already couldn’t imagine a life without Moana here, and I knew it would only scar Ella emotionally after she became so attached to Moana. Not only that, but it would hurt Ella to see her new sibling be sent away like that.

No… I couldn’t send Moana away. I was just tired, and my tiredness caused me to make a mistake. If I could just sleep, it would all be better in the morning and I could deal with it then.

But I couldn’t sleep. Every time I closed my eyes, I kept picturing how beautiful Moana’s body looked on the night of our one night stand, and how sensual she had been. Admittedly, it even made me too aroused to sleep, and eventually I couldn’t take it anymore. I couldn’t go to her room, but I also couldn’t be in this house — so I decided to get dressed again and go out to the bar for a drink. I quickly texted my nighttime driver, who was on call for nights like this, and told him that I would be down shortly.
