Nanny and the Alpha Daddy

#Chapter 104: Intervention

Moana

Edrick took me utterly by surprise as he suddenly dropped the glass containing his drink, letting it shatter all over the floor, and took off in the direction of Ethan’s studio. I knew now that Kelly had indeed shown him the picture of Ethan and I kissing, but I didn’t expect him to react like this. He believed me so willingly when I admitted that Ethan kissed me without my consent, which was not something that I ever would have expected from the Alpha billionaire. Now, he was storming off… And I didn’t know what he was going to do to his brother when he saw him.

“Edrick!” I called, lifting my skirt and running after him down the dark hallway. “Where are you going?!”

Edrick didn’t answer. He only kept storming away, his fists clenched at his sides as the clicking of his shoes echoed loudly on the marble floors. He didn’t stop me from following him, though, and I was determined to make sure he didn’t do anything rash.

“Edrick, it was only a misunderstanding with Ethan,” I insisted, grabbing his sleeve. “Please don’t do anything without thinking about it first.”

The Alpha billionaire suddenly stopped and whirled around to face me. His gray eyes were glowing silver then, but the anger wasn’t directed at me; I knew that much now. For some reason, the Alpha billionaire was jealous.

“Don’t think you can get in the way of this,” he said, his voice so low it was almost a growl. “I told you that he’s not to be trusted. I won’t let him get away with touching a woman without her permission… Especially not you.”

My eyes widened. I opened my mouth to speak, but before anything could come out, Edrick took off again and left me standing in the middle of the hallway.

Meanwhile, inside of me, Mina began to get excited at the prospect of two men fighting over me.

“Follow him,” she insisted happily, as though she wanted to see what would come of this. “I want to see him protect you.”

I was a bit confused by my wolf’s sudden and intense interest in the situation. When I first started feeling her presence, I thought that she was a voice of reason, but over time I slowly began to realize that she represented all of the primal urges that I had been pushing down my entire life… And shockingly, I was just as intrigued as she was.

“I should stey out of it,” I replied, stering down the hellwey et Edrick. “This is between two brothers.”

But Mine wouldn’t heer it. “It’s not just between them,” she seid. “It’s ebout you. Edrick is doing this beceuse he ceres ebout you.”
