His Nanny Mate By Eve Above Story

Chapter 136: Deer in Headlights

As soon as I saw the look on Moana’s face as the paparazzi swarmed us, I knew that I should have prepared her more for an event of this magnitude. It wasn’t just any old event; it was a huge networking event for some of the most affluent people in the city. The majority of people in attendance were other CEOs, celebrities, and extremely wealthy werewolf socialites. It really was no place for a girl like Moana, who had very little experience with events of this caliber, and I should have given her more time to get used to all of the media attention before I suddenly sprung this on her. But I had completely forgotten that the event was this weekend, and had mistaken the date as being the following weekend.

I could tell that Moana was trying her best to smile for the cameras and stay close to me, but when the paparazzi noticed her holding her belly and began to swarm her even more, it became too much.

Instinctively, I put my arm around her… But that only sent the paparazzi into even more of a frenzy.

“When is the wedding?” the paparazzi shouted. “Will you wait until after the baby is born? When is the baby due?”

Of course, I wasn’t going to answer any of these questions; not only because there would be no wedding, but also because I needed to get Moana inside before she had a full-blown panic attack out here. The paparazzi, thankfully, were being held behind a barrier and couldn’t get too close to us, but it still felt suffocating with all of the flashing lights and shouting. I was used to this by now, and even this was too much. I could only imagine the terror that Moana felt right now.

Instead, she was just a “guest”. But I decided not to let it get to
